    How do you run 1.04b DS918 as VM? I only see one synoboot.img file within zip.

     

    depends which hypervisor you're using but it involves some steps to get it running.

    Do this loader have VM version, such as VMware or Virtual Box for testing?

     

    it works for both bare metal or vm.  Using 1.04b on vm on my QNAP.

    Hello,

     

    today i make the Update from Loader 1.02b to 1.03b on my HP Microserver Gen8 ... And the Update to DSM Version: 6.2-23739

     

    All work fine :) But now the question: Can i update to DSM 6.2.1-23824?

    i think only 1.04b (918+) can update to latest

  4. MooseMan123, ever heard the expression, beggars can't be choosers, hehe 😄.  Yeah, I also can't run the 1.04b on my old dell r710 ESXi.

    I am going to guess that you have an older CPU that isn't supported by the DS918 loader.

     

     

     

    yeah on ESXI, i have a dell r710 with L5640 processors, so that's probably too old.  Fusion i have an i7 4th gen cpu.

    Hi,

     

    Is it possible to install XPENology on Synologies Virtual Machine manager?

    J.

     

    I’ve installed XPE on my ds3617xs.  Synology VMM can only import OVA format. 

     

    Process is:

    Create a VM using VMware Workstation Pro using Juns 6.2 loader, then export it to OVF. 

    Import the VM into VMware Fusion (MAC) and then export VM to OVA format. 

    Import the OVA on Syno’s Virtual Machine Manager. 

    Power on VM, use Assistant to look for the Syno, then install PAT file.

    Hello, I have the problem that after updating my server is no longer achievable. Unfortunately, I saw the message too late and updated it beforehand. Now the server is down. I use HP Microserver Gen8 Loader: 1.03b - ds3617_6.2 Can someone help me how to get it all going now? or undo the update so that everything runs again?

     

    I dunno, maybe start all over again with installing the previous pat file.

     

    Format your drives and start from scratch (you will lose the data, of course should always have a backup).  Don't update to this latest firmware, to get your box going again.

    So, I've been testing out the loader for the past few hours and I cannot seem to get it to work the way I need it to.

    I am running XPEnology on a QNAP device. the 6.1.7 DSM installs perfectly fine with the older bootloader but I cannot get past the "find.synology.com" message on the 6.2 loader. It never actually activates for me to go through the installation of the DSM and SynoAssist never finds it.
    I then tried to use the same exact loader by using a USB stick and booting the VM in QNAP to go through the USB stick and it works perfectly fine there and I was able to install it successfully.

     

    Does anyone have ANY clues at all how I can get it to work WITHOUT the USB stick and just using the VM in QNAP with a created file from VMWARE Workstation?

     

    I was testing out 6.01 on Qnap VM (using the same method, create vm using vmware workstation, then exporting to .OVF), then after trying to get the 6.2 loader to work.  Got it working now.  Once it was working, I exported the VM to a QVM file so there's no need to go through the process of installing the PAT file.
