[Version 5.2-5644 released]

Okay.. thought I was losing my mind last night..

 

Pulled an ISO for 5592 yesterday, burned.

Took a Dell OP 760 first.. booted/installed et al.. could not create a volume.

Fought with it every which way.. no go.

 

Connection failed. Please check your network settings.

 

My network settings.. for creating a volume?..

Pulled down an OP 780 and blew the dust off.. also put some RAM in.. go figure..

Same deal.

 

Woke up early.. went to a client's site where I had formerly set one up on a Precision T3500, okay?

Pulled the HDD and smote the partitions, took the CD which it still had in it.. SAME problem on the OP 760. (didn't bring the other.. it was after 5am..).

Fine.. went with the "effit" maneuver and put the drive back in, CD back in.. installed et al.. and IT won't create a volume.. it could before.

 

Conclusions:

A fresh build from a 5592 ISO ends up with a 5644 build.. I did notice that last night between the pre-rebuild and the new guy last night.. as well as the former-5592-now-5644. I'm sure a manual/PAT might help me there.. "I" didn't ask for 5644, the thing did that by itself.. even from an ISO and CD from weeks ago on the same hardware.

Cannot create a volume.. whatever this issue is, it is broken from the get-go.

 

I go with the CD because too often I cannot get a good boot order AND attach an external USB HDD for backup or whatever.. and reboot. Inevitably the hardware derps and tries to boot the wrong USB.. but that's just me.

 

I can't be the only one trying this from fresh and hitting the volume wall. Sure, I can hack at it and all.. but the "it just works" approach isn't.

While I'm sure I may or may not have had fun on an upgrade.. I was just trying to build another box to begin with.. go figure.

 

Any luck with "Connection Failed. Please check your network settings" error.

I got the same problem

Please let me know if you fixed it.

[VMWare Workstation cannot create new volumes]

I'm having the same problem. "Connection Failed. Please check your network settings" or in Dutch "De verbinding is mislukt. Controleer uw netwerkinstellingen"

 

I'm running DSM_DS3615xs_5644 on a HP Media smart server (ex 490) with a bootable USB drive. DSM is working properly

I got three 1TB drives. They are all working on another machine and appear to be healthy in the DSM Storage Manager. With the create volume wizard i've tried every possibility (single disk, JBOD, RAID5, etc), but is doesn't matter.The disks appear in the wizard and can be selected. I would like to get them into RAID 5. Going through the wizard and finally arriving on the confirmation page it gives the error.

 

Are their any checks I can do or manually create a RAId 5 with SSH shell? (FreeBSD noob, but copy/paste I can do)

 

Please help (I've just spent $ 90,- on a new power supply to give this server a second life)

 

Cheers
