Remove Virtual Machines via CLI?

[kazjim]

G'day team, crazy situation has occurred . . .

Yesterday I attempted to add a NVS300 GPU to my server, and pass it through to a VM to use for Docker.

Things didn't go well, and I tried to roll the changes out, but now, anytime I even try to EDIT the VM, the console hangs, and the CLI via Putty (SSH) becomes unresponsive. (Even NFS Shares hang)

So, I'd like to delete the VMs and rebuild what I need (Docker-compose, so no issues there.... )

So, is it possible to delete or edit the VMs from the CLI ?

Thanks!



Details : Homebuilt server 1151 i7 /64GB Ram / Dell H310 (IT Mode)/ 8 x 4tb drives.

If you are using SCALE you can run the "cli" app, and then use something like this:

Run "service vm query" first to get a list of the VMs and their ID's.

Thanks, have just tried that, and it also froze the system.

Oddly, an error did appear on the screen though.

Edit - physically went to server and checked screen, and it was mentioning that boot-pool had uncorrectable errors.

I ended up hard-resetting the box and think i'll jsut have to rebuild from backup config.

Thanks

Hi,
I am trying the same thing to delete all traces of an old unused VM, but I can't. This VM had the drive on a Pool that does not exist anymore.
I get this

Code:

[diskstation]> service delete 1
Error: This system does not support virtualization.

Any idea?
If I want to delete it in the GUI, I get this:

Code:
