Hi all,
I would like to try and contribute with two ideas. Might not be entirely new.
I tried to install ARPL in ESXi 7, using DS3622xs, DS3617 and DS3615 but every time I got a message with Disk not detected.
After doing some research, I found a fix by adding two options in cmdline:
SataPortMap with value 58
DiskIdxMap with value 0A00
Now I have a running DS3622XS+ VM. Maybe this can be added by default in ARPL loader, eventually on a per model basis if the values I found are not working on other models.
Interesting discovery: by mistake I added a disk to VM using SCSI Paravirtual Adapter and it shows up in DSM 7. The importance of Paravirtual is that it uses less resources and it can be faster with lower overhead. The weird part is that only the first virtual disk (connected to SCSI Paravirtual adapter) is seen by DSM 7 and every other disk I connected are not detected - It would be great to have SCSI Paravirtual disks working in DSM 7
Thank you all for this great project.
If needed I can add more details.
