pittnet

Hi. I am having a situation that I never had bevore and I am clueles. I am running a virtual RS4021xs on ESX for a while now. I have 12 SSD Drives connected as RDMs and forming 3 raid5 arrays. All volumes are BTRS formated volumes. Disk 1 is the "satadom". Disk 2 is a 50GB VMDK which is volume4. I am running ARC loader version 23.11.30 and DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 3 If I force DSM reinstallation, the DSM boots normaly, I cann logon and all volumes are mounted and all apps are fine. Looks all good. But if I reboot the DSM, it looks to me like the boot process does not finish. Telneting on the virtual serial port I can see that is stops "to early" at logon prompt. If I try to logon to the GUI it says "system is getting ready...". But I cann logon via telnet or ssh. My /etc/fstab only shows this two entries: none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 defaults 1 1 It should be: none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 defaults 1 1 /dev/mapper/cachedev_0 /volume4 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,ssd,synoacl,relatime,nodev 0 0 /dev/mapper/cachedev_3 /volume1 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,ssd,synoacl,relatime,nodev 0 0 /dev/mapper/cachedev_2 /volume2 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,ssd,synoacl,relatime,nodev 0 0 /dev/mapper/cachedev_1 /volume3 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,ssd,synoacl,relatime,nodev 0 0 The commands cat /proc/mdstat lvdisplay vgdisplay do not seam to show any abnormal situation. I can manually mount my volumes without a problem. If I execute synobootseq --set-boot-done synobootseq --is-ready I am able to logon to the GUI. But the apps are missing. At the momemt the only way I know how to help my self is to force DSM reinstallation via ARC Loader. After reinstallation and first boot, all works perfectly again. Till next reboot. If someone has an idea what could be the reason and how to solve it, I realy would apreciate the help. BTW: I have backup of the complete NAS on a second baremetal XPEnology runing with spinning disks. I don't think that restoring it will fix my problem. I am afraid the issue will be restored as well. It's not the restore time that I'm afraid of, but rather the reconfiguration time.

I had the same error. It happend for me when the PC tried to boot the USB stick on legacy mode instead of UEFI mode.

Consegui configurar 12. Mas tive the adicionar 4 discos no SATA0 junto com a book VMDK. O SATA1 aceitou só 8.

Nao to conseguindo adicionar os 12 discos. Tenho que criar o bootloader com os 12 discos conectados?

Ja tinha visto esse projeto. Usei com DSM 6.2.x Outra cousa. Tu ja testou se tu consegue adicionar mais do que 8 discos? Nunca consigo usar os 12 que supostamente serial possiveis? As vezes ate me mostra discos no slot 13, 14, 15, e assim por diante.

Tu sabe se ja existe um pacote pra instalar VMware Tools no DSM 7?

Beleza. A instalacao foi realmente muito facil. Excelente tutorial. Ta rebootando

Oi Aleponce. To meio cego e nao vejo o atalho pra baixar o VMDK ou realmente esta faltando. Poderia me dar uma maozinha?
