    Moving to new hardware : DSM 6.2-23739

    in DSM 6.x

    Posted · Edited by headrat

    Yeah I was planning to tape them over 

     

    https://www.instructables.com/How-to-Fix-the-33V-Pin-Issue-in-White-Label-Disks-/

     

    using Kapton tape.

     

    I'm now keeping an eye on these to see if they drop on Black Friday

    they are 7200rpm EXOS Enterprise drives (no mods required), a bit more pricey but I think in the long wrong these might work out better.

    Thanks for all the help guys but I've chickened out, 

     

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/WD-Elements-Desktop-External-Drive/dp/B07VXKF1L4/ref=sr_1_3?crid=9GY1DXLA74XR&dchild=1&keywords=12tb+external+hard+drive&qid=1606369561&sprefix=12tb+%2Caps%2C154&sr=8-3

     

    and pulled the trigger on 3 x 12TB drives (linked above as on a good deal ATM), I will just setup Supermicro X10SDV-12C-TLN4f "as new" and copy the files that I need across.

    So if I just forgot the whole re-install DSM thing, could I just pull the USB bootloader out of the Gen8 Microserver and just put it and the 5 x drives  onto the Supermicro X10SDV-12C-TLN4f, would DSM cope with the hardware change?

    Hi,


    I'm moving from a Gen8 Microserver to a Supermicro X10SDV-12C-TLN4f, I have 5 x 6TB WD Reds with all of my data on, no easy way to add another disc to Gen8 hence I decided to upgrade. 

     

    I'd actually like to do a fresh install of DSM but obviously want to keep my data, I've also purchased an additional 1 x TB WD RED as I want to up the storage as well.

     

    I'm not quite sure what the best process to follow is, any knowledgeable person want to help me out with the best approach?

     

    Thanks

    It's because /dev/md0 is full:

    but I'm not sure what it does or how to empty it!

    BUFFALO TeraStation TS5800D

    in DSM 6.x

    Posted · Edited by headrat

    Hi,

     

    Picked up a BUFFALO TeraStation TS5800D dirt cheap (with 24TB of discs), just wondered if this would be capable of running XPenology?

     

    y4mAt3BXg-Es_CaIzXdfbY4qUqb1J2R7SuB_h_xT

     

    Currently it's running a a "backup" for my main NAS but the Buffalo software is horrible ;)

     

    Cheers

    Found logs in /var/logs ;) (I'm very rusty with CLI)

     

    I think it may have something to do with the VSWITCH, I seem to remember having setup a bond at some point on the box (but it didn't work as desired).

     

    I can see:

     

    admin@DiskStation:/var/log$ sudo synonet --show
    System network interface list:

    Host Name: DiskStation
    Network interface: ovs_eth0
    Manual IP
    IP: 192.168.1.197
    Mask: 255.255.255.0

    MTU Setting: 2000
    -1, Full duplex, active mtu 1500
    RX bytes: 56026460

    1000, Full duplex, active mtu 2000
    RX bytes: 16843000404
    TX bytes: 1900737601049

     

    I'm connected to 192.168.1.2.

     

    I bet something isn't playing nicely since upgrade to 6.2, I'm trying to find I disable the BOND/VSWITCH from the CLI

     

    Currently everything works fine (PLEX/SONARR/RADARR/NZBGET) etc. but when the network just stops working when I press "control panel" I get kicked out of my ssh session, my constant ping stops to 192.168.1.2 and "Synology Assistant" can no longer find the server on any IP.

    Everything is backed up either to cloud or other NAS so it would be the "end of the world" but ideally I'd like to find out why the network "barfs" when I start DSM applications.

     

    My presumption is that something is getting "updated" as these applications loads which is causing the network to be reset.

    OK so I wanted to go for the to go for 1.02b as I was on 6.1 but I thought I'd try 1.03b and upgrade to 6.2.

     

    All seems to have gone OK, to a point, if I just start the box then everything seems to be OK but as soon as I start DSM and say go into "packages" or "control panel" the server drops off the network:

    If I click on "connect" I get into DSM but as soon as I log into DSM and press "control panel" I get kicked out of my ssh session, my constant ping stops to 192.168.1.2 and "Synology Assistant" can no longer find the server!

     

    Oh my !

    I'm using Notepad++,  I have no problem spinning up a VM but I guess I'm a little dubious that is the issue as every other video/post I've seen Notepad++ has been fine.

     

    When I try and boot from the Jun bootloader I don't get the normal menu you'd expect e.g.

     

    y4mMzQ7rWONrVfvAOGXUoUOWrMGXmCuo66THlWo0

     

    it just refuses to boot and loops around and around the boot cycle.

     

    It's been a number of years since I've done this but I don't recall it being particularly problematic, this has really got me "scratching my head". I looked at loads of posts/youtube videos and I'm following the correct process but I'm going wrong somewhere!

     

    Just a thought, I'm getting the bootloader from "Xpenology_Tool_V142" maybe that's an issue, what a good source for the "DS3615xs 6.1 Jun's Mod V1.02b" bootloader?

    Hi All,

     

    I''m starting to lose my sanity, I'm trying to create a new USB stick for my Gen8 Microserver (the existing USB had an encounter with an over zealous 6 year old!)

     

    I've got my bootloader  (DS3615xs 6.1 Jun's Mod V1.02b) and I've updated the 


    VID for USB

    PID for USB

    MAC for NIC 

    Serial  

     

    using OSFMOUNT (verified that the image does indeed have these values). I then use RUFUS to create a bootable image from the IMG file.

     

    The problem is that the Gen8 refuses to boot of the USB stick (I've tried several).


    HELP!


    THanks

    [SOLVED] Install on vmware ESXI

    in DSM 5.2 and earlier (Legacy)

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I now have XPEnology 5.0-4528 running under ESXI (NL54 Microsever), everything seems fine but both NZBGET and/or SABNZB seem to download very slowly I just can't seem to work out why!!!

     

    Downloads work but I never seem to get a download above 800 kbps (should be getting about 2 mbps).

     

    Not sure where to look, any help appreciated.

     

    Thanks
