Intel Arc Pro B50 on Unraid 7.3.0 – SR-IOV + GPU Stats + Docker/VM Sharing Fully Working 🚀
Finally got my Intel Arc Pro B50 fully stable and properly working on Unraid 7.3.0 running kernel 6.18.29-Unraid, so thought I’d share for anyone else struggling with Battlemage cards.
Current setup: Ryzen 9 7950X Supermicro H13SAE-MF Intel Arc Pro B50 Unraid 7.3.0 (6.18.29-Unraid)
What’s now confirmed working: GPU Stats plugin detecting the B50 correctly Hardware transcoding in Jellyfin/FileFlows/Tdarr SR-IOV VFs creating successfully Can share the GPU between Docker and VMs at the same time ReBAR enabled and stable PCIe link negotiating properly (Gen5 x8 in my case)
A few things I learned during troubleshooting: Kernel 6.18 made a huge difference for Battlemage support BIOS updates mattered a lot ASPM settings can massively affect stability/reporting Some PCIe reporting in lspci looks misleading because of Intel’s onboard bridge ACS Override helped with cleaner VF isolation PSU stability mattered way more than I expected.
Biggest surprise was finally getting SR-IOV working reliably while still using the GPU for containers. Didn’t expect the Arc Pro B50 to end up this capable in a homelab/media server setup.
If anyone is fighting with Battlemage on Unraid, happy to share BIOS settings, commands, and working configs.
