    Much better is to setup DS3622xs.

    Yes, you have to select a new model (in loader setup), build a loader, boot into freshly built loader, get into web and migrate to a new model DSM, preferring to save settings.

    Hmm too much hassle for my current setup and the little goal I wanted to reach, but thanks.

    Why do you want to "tweak" things with high chances of issues when the loader itself is powerfull, secure, and the easiest way to apply the change ?

    Launch "configure loader" enable the missing module (don't remember wich one), build the loader, boot the loader.

     

    Unless you already manipulated/tweaked the loader manually, it should be straight forward.

    Well I barely know this loader hehe and I just built it in the "standard" way explained to run my NAS.

     

    So what you are saying is that ie. I can remotely access the loader via Web at 

    http://<ip>:7681

    and there do what you just wrote, correct? :D

    Thank you!

     

    Will I still have the chance to recover my current DSM system once I've rebuilt ARPL or there's 100% no way to do that?

    Actually... is there a way to manually enable the module if I mount the USB key into ie. an Ubuntu session withouth having to rebuild ARPL? @fbelavenuto please? 🤔

    You need to enable the module while configuring the loader, then build it, then boot it, then turn the system off. Then plug the USB into another computer, you'll find it there.

    Thank you!

    Woke up this morning and my NAS was on, but unreacheable (and so all the VMs and Docker containers).

     

    Tried rebooting, but still offline.

     

    Hooked up the NAS to my monitor and the ARPL booting seemed OK (see pic here), but the issue was still going on.

     

    Ran Ubuntu Live on a USB stick (btw in the same USB port used for ARPL) and all my hardware/Ethernet was 100% OK.

     

    What do I do now to debug and find out what's going on here? 🤔

    @fbelavenuto can you see any reason why ARPL doesn't boot from time to time (very random)?

     

    Basically I've scheduled a daily poweroff & poweron task, but let's say every 2-3 days I've to force poweroff the NAS because DSM wasn't loaded (no SSH connection too).

     

    If I look at Log Center everything is OK... 🤔

    Updates

    Update: to answer myself and everybody else who needs to recover an installed DSM (hard drive have to be signed as recoverable!) I succesfully managed to recover!

     

    So to resume:

    1. Flash ARPL
    2. Connect to the URL generated
    3. Be sure to select the same machine you used before
    4. Then look for the DSM recovery feature, enable it and be sure then to edit the user config so that it will keep the serial number and MAC address you were using before. If you don't then you won't be able to recover DSM succesfully.

     

    Whole process took like 5 minutes and now EVERYTHING is there plus I am with latest DSM. :)

    =========================

     

    @fbelavenuto I failed updating DSM to latest version using previous Tiny Core Loader.

     

    Now I flashed your loader and I see there's a recovery option?

     

    I noticed however it doesn't load the current serial and MAC address.

    Serial number field is empty and MAC address is different.

     

    Shall I edit the file to my previous settings or shall I leave it as it is?

    Yes, it works, but your system needs to support it. If you use a MAC different from your network card you may have problems if your machine has just turned on, because the MAC is changed by software and a DSM boot is necessary for this.
    I recommend not changing the MAC, only change it if you have a valid MAC/SN set. In this case try waking up your machine with its original MAC and the modified MAC, one of them will work according to the current status of the microcomputer.

    Yes I am already using the same machine MAC address, but right now WOL was not working with my current tinycore-redpill loader.

     

    Thanks tomorrow morning I will be moving to your loader instead. :D

    I am already running this loader, but I was wondering if I can edit the user_config.json file (to add ACPID) without having then to reinstall DSM from scratch?

     

    Will everything keep working like before?

    Anybody able to answer please? 😬

    Aiuto per script ACPID di GitHub per RedPill / DSM 7.x

    in ITALIAN

    Posted

    Quando avevo DSM 6.x usavo un pacchetto SPK per far spegnere il NAS con una breve pressione del pulsante di spegnimento (come coi NAS originali Synology).

    Ora che sono passato a DSM 7.x quel pacchetto non è più compatibile e sono incorso in un tizio che su un gruppo XPEnology aveva postato il link https://github.com/jumkey/redpill-load/tree/develop/redpill-acpid senza, però, fornire le istruzioni su come applicare il tutto.

    C'è qualcuno qui per favore che sa dirmi cosa devo fare?

    maybe nothing with 7.0 is safe for prod

    i just checked and the one i have in my test vm is this

    https://github.com/jumkey/redpill-load/tree/develop/redpill-acpid

    and acpi power button shudown in virtualbox is working (and that extension is from last year)

     

    as far as i can see the power button *.spk package might not be continued for 7.0, it was developed further in a different way

    Can you please tell how to install?

    Also I see two GZ archives there so which one is suitable for DSM 7.0.1-42218 Update 2? :)
