Hi koroziv,
thanks for your instructions!
I've tried to follow it, using ESXi 6.5 (free) and imported the .ovf file including the .vmdk using the vSphere Web Client. After the import I only added a new harddisk with 20 GB capacity using the SCSI adapter. I decreased the amount of CPU from 4 to 2 and started the VM.
After seeing the boot menu for a second I now see this screen below - nothing more. The synology assistant does not find the Diskstation nor is there any other sign of life.
[Err - cannot upload any attachment here, what's the deal with this message: "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached.", so I will type it in here]

Happy hacking.
Screen will stop updating shortly, please open http://find.synology.com to continue.

When I'm able to stop at the boot menu too choose a different item, e.g. the one with VMWare/ESXi, the very same happens.
What did a made wrong?
EDIT: tried the second approach, but have got a few questions:
Which .vmx did you use? Should I create a VM on my ESXi and use this .vmx?
Which .zip file was used here, Juns loader linked to the OP does only contain a .vmdk and a .ovf file
So, I should not use any of the files, which I can download from the OP?
Same question as above? Which .vmx file was used?
Which menu item should I use? The one with VMware/ESXi or any of the others? Which one exactly?
