You are wonderful! Thank you very much for your answer! You are a life saver. I thought it would be an in-place upgrade but I could not understand the implications and I like my data very much

 

Thank you!

[Updating a Xpenology DSM-5.2-5565-2 to DSM-5.2-5592 on ESXi]

Hi,

 

I have a DSM-5.2-5565-2 with three RDM disks attached to it. I would like to update it because it has problems accessing remote NFS/rsync shares in order to do remote backup. One of my biggest disks has just failed and I had to take it out of my HP Gen8 Micro, the volume is now degraded and I really need to backup the data.

 

Remote mount CIFS is not a solution as the CIFS implementation destroys the file permissions and attributes so I can't use that backup. I need a backup that can be restored easily from the UI. I have no other spare disks large enough to receive this data quickly and reliable at this moment.

 

 

I could not find any posting with the upgrade process of a running Xpenology nas when it's virtualized in ESXi (like I have mine). How can I achieve this update without loosing data and/or settings ?

 

Is there a post or forum entry I didn't see ?

Any help would be appreciated!
