dave Posted February 18, 2018 Share #1 Posted February 18, 2018 Hello folks, I have search on the forum and internet and I can't find an information on how to do it. There is some tutorial to do it without esxi but not with it. Currently, I don't have enough space on other disk to save everything and make a fresh install. So I would like to update without loosing any data. Does someone already did it ? For my understanding, I should select Jun's mod 1.02b vmdk file and start it as a primary drive. But will it update or overwrite the current xpenology? Thx, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share #2 Posted February 19, 2018 Done. I install another DSM 5.2 and test the migration (4 times to be sure everything is fine) and it's ok. For people who would like to do it : Stop the VM Change my IDE hard drive from 0:0 to 0:1 Download and extract synoboot_1.02b_ESXi_only Change in the vmdk ddb.adapterType to "ide" Add in DataStore : synoboot_1.02b_ESXi_only (synoboot.img and synoboot.vmdk) Add a hard drive, select synoboot.vmdk and set it to IDE 0:0 Restart the VM and follow the migration stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
