Physical drive limits of an emulated Synology machine?
filippo333 replied to SteinerKD's topic in Hardware Modding
Wow thank you for your excellent work Quicknick! Do you accept donations? -
- Outcome of the update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.1.5 15254 - Loader version and model: Jun's Loader v1.02b - DS3615xs - Installation type: ASUS H110I-Plus (Skylake) - Additional comments: No reboot required, Power Button Package needs to be reinstalled.

Just as an update for those on 6.1.5, this package still works but you may have to reinstall it. I'm guessing some files are overwritten during the update process...

- Outcome of the update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.1.4 15217 U5 - Loader version and model: Jun's Loader v1.02b - DS3615xs - Installation type: ASUS H110I-Plus (Skylake) - Additional comments: Requires immediate reboot This update resets synoinfo.conf. It appears DSM 6.1.5 handles SHR much nicer on enterprise models by now also populating the RAID Group tab rather than appearing as empty like previous versions:

Recommend backing this file up if you have edited any of the settings!

Obtain real MAC address from adapter?
filippo333 replied to filippo333's question in Answered Questions
I think the only way of doing it is finding out what the real values are and setting them statically in grub.cfg. As you said, every time I reboot the MAC addresses change randomly :S -
Obtain real MAC address from adapter?
filippo333 replied to filippo333's question in Answered Questions
Yeah I think at this point this is my only option; it's odd how Xpenology duplicates the same MAC addresses for all cards if there's only a single entry. -
Hello, Does anyone know how to harvest the real MAC address of a device whilst booted into Xpenology? Basically I'm using an Intel NIC but now plan to use my integrated Realtek one for something. Originally I only changed the MAC address in grub.cfg for the Intel NIC (there is no second entry for the integrated one), running ifconfig from the server shows the second adapter but with the exact same MAC address as my Intel NIC. Is there an easy way to see what the unspoofed address is?

Updated with no issues (using 1.02b loader - DS3615xs).
-
Updated on my bare metal system, no problems. Doesn't require a reboot!
-
+1 no issues for me either running the setup linked in my signature!
-
There's your problem. AMD support has always been experimental given how no current Synology devices run AMD hardware.
-
You could use Rsync to go between FreeNAS and Synology.
-
Agreed, I previously bought a DS1515+ and it just wasn't enough for video transcoding despite Synology marketing its 1080p video transcoding capabilities. I'd rather not spend £1.5k+ for a machine I can build for a third of that price. I'm glad you took the plunge, congrats on things working out for you

Are Synology required to release their kernel modules under the GPL?
-
I can confirm this worked for me! With VT-x disabled, I kept getting the error about not having enough memory (even though I have 16GB). I guess the error DSM throws up is quite generic since Synology have a compatibility list for VMM and don't expect people running it on "unsupported" devices.
-
Can't comment on bare metal but had no issues with it so far on my VM.
-
@jun Any news about when we'd be getting a stable 1.02 loader? I'd assume the general consensus is 1.02b is pretty damn stable.
-
I've tested GPU trans-coding myself but the quality is always noticeably worse than doing it with the CPU. That may change in the future but right now GPU trans-coding isn't a viable alternative unless you really can't afford a budget CPU made in the last 3 years. My i3 6100 for example can trans-code high bit-rate blu-ray rips quite easily (though CPU usage is high as you'd expect).
-
That's not really true, Plex can transcode on any x86 CPU even within a hyper visor in fact (though not very fast). If you're using DS Video on the other hand, then there are a few factors to consider if you want video transcoding. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Well personally I'm still on 6.0.2.x firmware and everything has been rock stable for me for months now. No reason to ever upgrade if you don't need the new shiny features, security patches are nice though
-
I suggest you follow Polanskiman's guide on how to recover your data using Linux. Not sure why your array is in the state it's in.
-
Which loader are you using? Also are you 100% sure the new drive has been associated with your SHR array?

Difference DS916+, DS3615xs and DS3617xs
filippo333 replied to Nebroth's question in Answered Questions
Well yes and no, Synology's kernel is full of backports and feature enhancements from newer kernels. They just like to have very strict control over what goes into their kernel and as a result their implementation is very fragmented and has doesn't have feature parity with your standard Linux distro. Basically don't trust version numbers when it comes to Synology's kernel
