  1. Does that mean, DSM is just acting as a front-end without any major HDD management? I have a 2012R2 Server with VMware workstation 10 (configured as server) running gnoboot's DSM 5.0-4458. I have set up a small VMDK for direct storage, but most of the content is mounted via NFS from a NFS-Share on my Host-system 2012R2. How do you manage your access from DSM to the 2012R2? How do you use LUN? Thanks upfront for your feedback - I'm searching for improvements on my installation;-) I don't prefer to use nsf on the windows environment because it requires multiple ports opening. I don't use the ISCSI on the home environment because there is not huge different on the IO. my dsm setting, 32MB boot + 8GB dsm / single EXT4 storage (~3.5 GB useable space). The photo station created the /photo folder under dsm storage and i created the mounting point on this folder via cifs. Therefore, all the photos stores in the windows side.
  2. Lsi 9271-8 and H710p I just use photo station on the dsm as the front end for the mobile device. The window sever is the main storage as the back end. That is why I prefer to use cifs mount on dsm instead of NSF or ISCSI. I use vmkfstools -z / -v to create the LUN for dsm instead of the raid controller passthrough. Test env: Gnoboot alpha 9 - dsm 4.3 Esxi 5.5 Windows 2012 r2 std
  3. i think the GW is the firewall filter by keywords, dns and etc. more info: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Shield_Project I found a very inconsistent transfer speeds on the cifs. speeds between 10mb ~ 110mb my test env: esxi 5.5, DSM 4.3 with A9 boot, vRAM 8GB. E1230 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD (data storage), WD 4TB disk (VMFS), WD 2TB(RDM), again thank you for your awesome job.
  4. that will be nice. any words on the cifs mount?
  5. system didnot halt under esxi 5 umount root [1] umount: can't unmount /: Device or resource busy umount fail, killall again ... umount root [5] <----- [b]system freeze at the 5th try[/b] umount: can't unmount /: Device or resource busy umount fail, killall again btw, thank your for your great hard work.
  6. hi Trantor, Do u get a chance to check and fix the cifs mount from ds? It still not work on the a7 release. Thx
