How do you make SMART data available in Xpenology with 6.2.3 with RDM ?

Hello, I just received my PCE-e P222 SATA-raid card. I flashed it to latest FW available : 8.32 Then with HP SSA I enabled HBA mode on it. I'm still waiting Xeon CPU to replace my current I3 so I still don't have VT-d (passthrough) available. But still, after installed, flashed, and HBA enabled, I plugged SAS cable from MB to P222 card Then in Xpenology VM settings I removed RDM mapped disk and I was able to add "New raw disk" instead. Currently no real benefit exept performances : $ sudo dd bs=1M count=50000 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 50000+0 records in 50000+0 records out 52428800000 bytes (52 GB) copied, 133.144 s, 394 MB/s $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=8192 | md5sum 8192+0 records in 8192+0 records out 8589934592 bytes (8.6 GB) copied, 21.8785 s, 393 MB/s Once I receive the CPU I'll be able to try passthrough to have SMART data inside Xpenology.

Hello again ! I wanted to try latest ESXi 7.0U1c on the Gen8. So I stopped my running 6.7U3 working USB key and installed a new one instead. I booted on the the 7.0U1c ISO to make a fresh install, but after installation, it failed to boot on the USB Key. So I tried again but instead I installed HPE 7.0 customized ISO for Gen10. It worked and I was able to boot on it. Then I direclty upgraded with the latest 7.0U1c ISO and it worked ! I'm with latest ESXi 7.0U1c currently Then I added existing Xpenology VM from SSD datastore, and it works flowlessly : And last but not least : No more latency issue on disks ! Or the info is not true anymore ? Disk write speed is a bit less than on 6.7U3 it seems : $ sudo dd bs=1M count=256 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 256+0 records in 256+0 records out 268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 1.95899 s, 137 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=512 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 512+0 records in 512+0 records out 536870912 bytes (537 MB) copied, 3.34841 s, 160 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=1024 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 4.48982 s, 239 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=2048 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 2048+0 records in 2048+0 records out 2147483648 bytes (2.1 GB) copied, 9.36259 s, 229 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=4096 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 4096+0 records in 4096+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 16.3967 s, 262 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=8192 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 8192+0 records in 8192+0 records out 8589934592 bytes (8.6 GB) copied, 27.519 s, 312 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=50000 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 50000+0 records in 50000+0 records out 52428800000 bytes (52 GB) copied, 162.903 s, 322 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=50000 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 50000+0 records in 50000+0 records out 52428800000 bytes (52 GB) copied, 161.099 s, 325 MB/s $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=8192 | md5sum 8192+0 records in 8192+0 records out 8589934592 bytes (8.6 GB) copied, 22.1442 s, 388 MB/s Edit : Hum, on host monitoring level, it seems latency is still not very good. Maybe value from VMs are not true anymore

Hello again, Can I ask why do we need to add/create a dedicated disk (32gb in the video) ? It is not initialised in the Xpenology VM... Is it possible to not add it and only have synoboot.vmdk and and RDM disks ? Thank you

I ordered a LSI 9211-8i IT, I will try it. I hope it is plug & play for passtrough to the ESXi (unplug mini SAS from motherboard and plug it to LSI ?) My speeds are not that bad for writing : $ sudo dd bs=1M count=256 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 256+0 records in 256+0 records out 268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 1.80159 s, 149 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=512 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 512+0 records in 512+0 records out 536870912 bytes (537 MB) copied, 2.90437 s, 185 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=1024 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 5.54903 s, 194 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=2048 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 2048+0 records in 2048+0 records out 2147483648 bytes (2.1 GB) copied, 8.00585 s, 268 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=4096 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 4096+0 records in 4096+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 13.0355 s, 329 MB/s $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=8192 | md5sum 8192+0 records in 8192+0 records out 8589934592 bytes (8.6 GB) copied, 24.0138 s, 358 MB/s Forget the graph about write speed, I was just refering the latency, the disk activity came from my camera Survelliance Station. Edit : graph with count=50000 twice : $ sudo dd bs=1M count=50000 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 50000+0 records in 50000+0 records out 52428800000 bytes (52 GB) copied, 153.624 s, 341 MB/s $ sudo dd bs=1M count=50000 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 50000+0 records in 50000+0 records out 52428800000 bytes (52 GB) copied, 155.17 s, 338 MB/s

Hello, do you have any suggestion ? : B120i controller is set in SATA AHCI mode in BIOS. $ sudo dd bs=1M count=4096 if=/dev/zero of=/volume1/testx conv=fdatasync 4096+0 records in 4096+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 14.442 s, 297 MB/s $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=4096 | md5sum 4096+0 records in 4096+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 10.7008 s, 401 MB/s c9a5a6878d97b48cc965c1e41859f034 - orphee@NAS-GEN8:/volume1$

Hi, I applied your fix and it works quite well, but may i ask your opinion ? : synoscgi_SYNO.Core.System_1_info[1419]: fan/fan_table_type_disk_temperature_ops.c:242 Invalid Disks temperature -1 synoscgi_SYNO.Core.System_1_info[1419]: fan/fan_temp_hw_sys_degree.c:50 Failed to get disks temperature synoscgi_SYNO.Core.System_1_info[1419]: fan/fan_temp_hw_sys_degree.c:54 Get wrong sys temperature Thank you

So I followed the tutorial, everything went fine. It runs well, I will test HDD max latency just to check

Hi, with this configuration, can you set the volumes as raid inside Synology ? I guess yes ? If you want to add a new hard drive later, you just need to add the new disk/simlink in RDM like the others and it will be available in Synology to be added to the RAID volume ? Thank you

Ok, thank you, so I will follow the following tutorial then I guess it should work

Hello, Si un jour il vous arrive que sans prévenir, après un arrêt du N54L, il ne démarre plus Synology et que pourtant il boot bien sur la clé USB... Vérifiez les paramètres du BIOS... et si par hasard ils ont sauté... (C1E a nouveau actif, carte réseau interne etc...) C'est que la pile RTC CR2022 est morte... Par chance j'en avais une sous la main et je l'ai remplacé tout de suite... Cela vient de m'arriver, j'ai failli formater la clé avant d'avoir l'idée d'aller vérifier les paramètres BIOS... Voilà, ça peut toujours servir à d'autres...

Hello, Thanks for this tutorial, there is still something unclear for me... How are handled the disks ? On a bare metal, DSM handle disks as raid or SHR... Is it the same on ESXi ? In case something goes wrong or if you want to migrate to a bare metal / real Syno you can directly plug disk and launch migration process ? Is there a specific setting to set for it ? I'm about to switch from HP N54L to HP GEN8 and I'm still unsure if I just put everything from N54L in same place on GEN8 and keep it bare metal or if I switch to ESXi... Thank you

Hello, did you need extra.lzma file ? On the N54L onboard nic was not working anymore after 6.2.3

Hello, I currently have a N54L + NIC HP NC360T working just fine with 1.03b booloader as DS3615xs without any extra conf I'm about to receive a HP Gen8. I'm thinking about 1.04b loader DS918+ or keep 1.03b with DS3615xs like the N54L... Can you give me your opinion ? I also need an HP NC360T with this Gen8 I guess ? Thank you

Hello, May I request some help ? - Xpenology N54L bare metal DS3615XS - Web station installed (Nginx) - php 7.0 installed (soap plugin enabled) "An unknown PHP error occurred. This is most likely a syntax error in config.php in phpVirtualBox's folder. The most common errors are an unclosed quote or a missing semicolon in a configuration item that has been entered (e.g. location, username, or password). Depending on your PHP configuration, navigating directly to config.php in your web browser may display the PHP error message.

Merci! Intéressant, faut remonter une bécane pour faire tourner ça par contre... à étudier

Hello, great work ! Do you know if there is a way to start the Surveillance Station Client (Windows) to open it directly with Live View ? When the service is restarted Live stream fails, I have to reopen the app and Live View . I would like to have a monitor with the live cam H24... so an app restart after syno service restart would be fine Thank you

Je soucis est de trouver un SN + MAC address correspondant à un DS3615xs ... D'autres topics indique que les licences ne fonctionnent pas avec Xpenology... (problème d'activation de licence) Et je dirai même que personne n'a confirmé qu'avec un vrai SN + mac address sur un Xpenology ça fonctionne (ni que ça ne fonctionne pas)... Quand tu vois le prix des licences, il vaut mieux être sur... 175€ un pack de 4 licences... glurps Parce que je suis d'accord avec toi, si je pouvais acheter les licences, je l'envisagerai sérieusement. Actuellement je fais tourner une version hackée avec le restart du service toute les 6h pour éviter le bomb timer... mais ça coupe le flux video le temps du restart, et ça ne permet donc pas d'avoir un écran allumé H24 avec les caméras affichées sans avoir à relancer le flux vidéo toutes les 6h.

Trouver une carte HP NC360T low profile Désactiver la carte réseau interne dans le BIOS Désactiver l'option C1E dans le BIOS Régler l'ACPI en 1.0 Si ces réglages sont absents du BIOS, mauvais BIOS, à flasher.

Il te faut le bon bios pour désactiver l'une option et avoir une carte réseau intel et désactiver la carte réseau intégrée Je chercherai le lien depuis un pc

Bonjour, J'ai actuellement un N54L baremetal avec la toute dernière version de DSM 6.2.2-24922-4. Il est configuré au petit oignons, container dockers, certificats letsencrypt, montage sshfs avec mon serveur web... etc... Mon seul soucis actuellement c'est Surveillance Station, limité à 2 caméra, et pour lequel on peut pas acheter de licence parce que NAS non officiel... Il existe donc la combine d'utiliser plusieurs NAS pour cumuler les licences gratuites... Je serai donc bien intéressé pour passer via un ESXi, j'ai 8Gb de RAM... Je suis légèrement refroidit par le fait que actuellement mon NAS tourne vraiment nickel... J'aimerai migré mon NAS en ESXi pour ensuite monter de nouvelles VM ne faisant tourner que Surveillance Station... Pensez-vous que c'est facilement faisable ? comment sont partagés/gérés les disques physiques via plusieurs VM Xpenology ? Merci

- Outcome of the installation/update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.2-23739 - Loader version and model: JUN'S LOADER v1.03b - DS3615xs - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - HP MicroServer Gen7 (N54L). - Additional comments: HP NC360T dual port 1Gb card, Builtin NIC disabled in the BIOS, ACPI 1.0 set in the BIOS, C1E disabled in the BIOS.

Hello, I successfully migrated my HP N54L 5.2 (3615xs) to 6.2 (3617xs). But I have issues with my shared folders, after sometime i loose it... I'm also randomly disconnected from DSM... Connected with putty, my session disconnected every 2 seconds... Apps does not automaticaly start at boot (file station, surveillance station, VPN center...) Edit : in fact all started "apps" randomly stops... Thank you

From a working DSM 5 Xpenology ? is it enough or you really need a linux ? I case you need a linux I'll prepare a live ubuntu. Thank you
