[XPEnology for dummies LINK Update 02/02/2013]

Thank you very much for the VMware img. I have it running on ESXi 5.1. Is PVSCSI supported? I can only add 2 more RDM drives as IDE. I have 3 other drives to add. Is this possible?

 

Thanks!

 

 

i make OVF package from andy release so yes PVSCSI is supported, add SCSI adaptater in Hardware.

 

you can delete or resize the 20G drive if you don't need it, it's just a drive to start to work with package.

Is there any chance to hide the two discs from DSM?

Mine complains about a crashed volume (it is pointing on the 0,2 GB disc)

 

the first disk is just to boot system.

 

at the first connection, you need to configure the 20Go disk or more, you can change it before launch the first

 

i don't see the 02gb in hdd management from DSM with vBOX

replace first volume, i test on workstation with no problem.

thank I work on esxi 5.1.

How to resize the disk 2 ?

 

expand disk in vmware before create volume in synology.

 

if you want to expand after, you need to recreate volume to get the correct size

it's not working for vmware, no hardrive found, you don't have the extended hardware version.

[XPEnology for dummies LINK Update 02/02/2013]

Works On VMware Player 5.1

. Opened the OVF template, saved the VM were it belongs.

. Changed bridge mode to host only since my Alienware M11x use mainly wifi and don't have wifi at work nor wired connection.

. Used Synology assistant to connect, configured password, ip, gateway

. Refreshed synology assistant, connected ok

. created volume, good to use...

 

Thanks a lot for the template, it makes it easier to test, Gigabit NIC e1000 is on by default.

 

I make a version with 4.2 rs3412xs from other post
