    DSM 6.1.x Loader

    Hello all, I have followed the direction here and managed to get the system up and installed. However, i cant seem to find the option for SHR or SHR2. I check the synology site and it seems it is still available in DSM6, but the only options i have are to create a raid group. Has SHR been removed from xpenology? thanks for your time and efforts on this project edit: forgot to mention, this is bare metal if it matters, also tried in vm-workstation with the same out come
  3. thanks for the info. unfortunately i have an older Connect-x2 card and it doesnt support eth mode to my knowledge.
  4. Hello, I'm im having some trouble getting infiniband to work on xpenology, and hoping someone has some advice. Ive tried two different cards on two different machines, the results are the same. Nothing seen in the gui and nothing seen via ifconfig. Both were update to the latest patch found here. The cards are Mellanox MHQH29B-XTR (connect-x2), Mellanox MHGA28-XTC (connect-x). id rather use the connect-x because otherwise it will be collecting dust, but working on either would be great. i download the drivers from the link in this post: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6070 this will be my nas device: Supermicro x8dt3-ln4f dual xeon e5520 16gb ecc mix of 1tb and 3tb drives has quad on board nics, i thought this may be an issue if. is xpenology limited to only four nic cards? so i started messing around on a test machine, to get a "proof of concept" test machine: gigabyte 990fxa-ud3 amd fx 8320 8gb ram 60gb ssd for test load os onboard lan off, using intel dual port 1gb Process: Standard load process works like a charm, patches install w/o a hitch (thanks for all the hard work contributors) reboot between patches used winscp to install the ko files (/lib/modules) and modified the /etc/rc and /etc.default/rc per the readme in zip file. reboot after driver install lsmod results: Xpenology> lsmod | grep mlx mlx4_ib 104330 0 ib_sa 19338 4 mlx4_ib,rdma_cm,ib_ipoib,ib_cm ib_mad 34788 4 mlx4_ib,ib_cm,ib_sa,ib_mthca ib_core 47092 10 mlx4_ib,svcrdma,xprtrdma,rdma_cm,iw_cm,ib_ipoib,ib_cm,ib_sa,ib_mthca,ib_mad mlx4_en 67584 0 mlx4_core 169852 2 mlx4_ib,mlx4_en newbie to linux, but looks ok? ifconfig results: Xpenology> ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xxxxxxxxxxxxxx inet addr:192.168.40.231 Bcast:192.168.40.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::92e2:baff:fe18:d448/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1617 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:774 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:638456 (623.4 KiB) TX bytes:340936 (332.9 KiB) eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx inet addr:169.254.242.227 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:58 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:58 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:6165 (6.0 KiB) TX bytes:6165 (6.0 KiB) so i have a few questions: is xpenology limited to only four nic cards, if this is the case than i may need a new nas board.... anyone see a flaw in my process? are the cards im using simply too old, i didnt see a card mentioned in the successful test system in the thread i was reading. Any input would be most appreciated
