Yes, I get a Lenovo 430-8i HBA card, it was SAS3408 chipset, aka LSI 9400-8i , IT mode firmware.  spec: 12Gb SAS HBA card. I use it with Esxi 6.7 and Win 2016 with broadcom driver is working fine connect 8 HDD to 2 disk cage. Just remind, SAS3408 use driver name: ItSas35

sure?

SAS3408 is dev id 00af

https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1000

 

and that supported with the driver in the 0.5 extra.lzma for dsm 6.2.2 3617, mpt3sas.ko (not with 3615 or 918+)

only sas38xx/39xx is not supported (at least when it comes to the device list from the driver

BTW, you have to increase the amount of drives by editing a config file post installing DSM, If that is what you are referring to not detecting your drives. I had 16 drives and it was limited I think to 8 and had to edit the file for DSM to see and pick up the remaining. 

the limit is the default from synology and its 12 drives for 3615/17

Thank you IG-88 for the info, see I've installed successfully DS3617xs  with DSM_DS3617xs_23739.pat no extra. I'm kind =d happy but always room for improvement.

I afraid to update to 24922  and break it.. it not freezing but only detect  3 drives.

for ??? reasons most of the drives are above the 12 drive limit and wont be shown (might be visible as external drives)

what controllers are in this system (onboard and as pcie card) any sas extenders?

how are the disks connected (what controller)

please do some information gathering

lspci -k

ls /dev/sd*

quick and easy might be to raise the allowed disk amount to 24 but that will be gone after a bigger update (full ~250MB pat file)

better to locate the problem and solve it otherwise, so so funny if you raid breaks after such a update from above

it should be solved by tweaking the the loader, bios or hardware itself

I'm following you procedure Case 1: update from 6.2.0 to 6.2.2 to upgrade, it's rebooting right now. but it still messing with BIOS time :-(

Hi arcao, thanks for your suggustion. Already put on my wishlist. I considered the M.2 pcie type . Thank you bro.👍

i know this one, with all this corona trouble my delivery if way off schedule :-(

pcie is usually backward compatible, i'd expect it to work in a pcie 2.0 slot

 

Nice, yeah.. also in my country all shipment from outside is freeze currently.

Maybe i will purchase until my country movement control order is lift off.

Hopefully all around the world is back to normal asap, i already stayed at home about 4 weeks already.😐

from lspi its the C610 chipset ahci with 4+2 ports and a sas3108 controller (8 ports)

0000:00:11.4 Class 0104: Device 8086:8d66 (rev 05)
        Subsystem: Device 1028:0601
        Kernel driver in use: ahci

        Kernel driver in use: megaraid_sas
-> MegaRAID SAS-3 3108 [Invader] aka PERC H730 Mini RAID Controller 1

the drive list might indicate you have used 3 x sata and 8 sas ports

/dev/sdi
-
/dev/sdk
/dev/sdl   
/dev/sdm
/dev/sdn  
/dev/sdo
/dev/sdp
/dev/sdq
/dev/sdr
-
-
/dev/sdu  
/dev/sdv

strange is the "missing" sda to sdh, thats 8 ports so the layout for dsm looks like this

 

8 ???
2 ahci
8 sas3108
4 ahci

 

these 8 ports shift most of the drives into the >12 area, no idea where they come from

nut even without these leading 8 ports you would be above 12 ports with 2 +8+4 = 14 and you would be needing to find a way to place the two last drives in a way that they would be /dev/sds and /dev/sdt

 

can you send me a copy of /var/log/dmesg ?

there might be a clue to see why 8 ports are skipped

 

did you try loader 1.04b again? if that would be used then you could change the drive count in the patch og the loader to 24 and make the drive number persistent for updates

 

if you want to go the way of modding the /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf then you would have to change it like this (and reboot after changing it)

original:
maxdisks="12"
esataportcfg="0xff000"
internalportcfg="0xfff"
usbportcfg="0x300000"

new:
maxdisks="24"
internalportcfg="0xffffff"
esataportcfg="0x0"
usbportcfg="0x3000000"

I have changed the /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf as you suggested please kindly see the results.
I'm assuming that the loader 1.04b must be with DS918 correct? if yes it wont load it get stuck with error The file is probably corrupted. (13).

Please let me know if you need anything from me and thank you again. if you want i can Switch to HBA mode or set the drives to non-raid.

Update= I have disable the onboard controller where I had only  the CD-ROM as caddy for SSD connected adn all the drives are there. reverting the /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf to default.

can you read the image from your working 3617 and the 918+ loader with "Win32DiskImager 1.0" with activ "read only allocated partitions", apload it somewhere (tinyupload is easy) and pm me the links?

 

the conrolle config from dmesg is 4+6 ahci ports and 8 from sas, so its sda to sdr and 18 ports

sdu and sdv are the usb drive and a virtual cd/floppy - so they dont count as dsm drives

 

can you disable the 6port ahci controller in bios? 4+8 would a good combination

from memory i thought it would be enough to change the synoinfo.conf in /etc.defaults and then reboot to see the change in /etc/synoinfo.conf too

so it you do the  change for both it should work

 and it didn't come up.

did you use a serial port as console or are you just guessing as it did not show up in network?

i still have a test hardware with a 1G broadcom nic so i might be able to test it

 

@hardware transcoding users

i  had a quick glance at the i915 driver from 6.2.3, it is from 22.12.2017, newer then the one in 6.2.2 (19.09.2016) but slightly older then the i915 created by jun for loader 1.04b (14.05.2018)

there are firmware references to "glk_dmc_ver1_04.bin" so it should support gemini lake

there are some already people that dont have transcoding support after update

without digging in i think the reason will be missing firmware, 918+ original image does not contain all i915 firmware files, just the one needed for apollo lake (bxt), it also contains glk firmware that indicates that gemini lake should work ootb without any additional extra.lzma changes

so people with "normal" gen4-9 cpu's should be fine with a updated extra/extra2 "syno" that would contain additional i915 firmware files

 

for people who cant wait

firmware files referenced in new 6.2.3 i915 driver:

bxt_dmc_ver1_07.bin
bxt_guc_ver9_29.bin
bxt_huc_ver01_07_1398.bin
cnl_dmc_ver1_06.bin
glk_dmc_ver1_04.bin
kbl_dmc_ver1_04.bin
kbl_guc_ver9_39.bin
kbl_huc_ver02_00_1810.bin
skl_dmc_ver1_27.bin
skl_guc_ver9_33.bin
skl_huc_ver01_07_1398.bin

 

firmware download from here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/i915

 

copy files in dsm to

 \usr\lib\firmware\i915\

With the jun1.04b and extra 0.8 (all 3) I tried to put the ds918 + on the asus p8b75-m lx plus and i3 3225, but there was no way to start it. On the same configuration but with jun1.03b and extra 0.5 the ds3617 + has started correctly.
Unfortunately I don't have the serial to see what's wrong, even if I think it's a LAN problem, he didn't find it on the net.
Have some suggestions?

cpu is to old for 918+ needs 4th gen, your cpu is 3rd gen, is documented here:

Sorry, i hadn't noticed this.
Among my various experiments, if I remember correctly, on the j1900 that I currently use with ds3617, I had put the ds918 +, assuming that it also worked on the i3.
I'm trying to make a nas with hw transcoding, do you have any advice, without spending too much?

Thanks again for everything

from reports i seems the J1900 will run with 918+, dsm 6.2.2 and the "syno" extra/extra2 with /dev/dri so hardware transcoding should work (in the limits what a J1900 can do)

the J1900 gpu is ivy bridge level, thats good to see whats possible

maybe wait a few days to see if gemini lake now works with dsm 6.2.3, if thats the case there should be some reasonable priced units

or did you have something in mind with more sata ports or 10G nic?

 I use juns loader 1.04b without any additional extra.lzma.

yes and thats the problem, juns loader contains drivers for 6.2.0 and it contains i915 drivers replacing the drivers from synology so even with 6.2.3 juns drivers will be loaded

you need to delete juns driver in the update folder (rm -rf /usr/lib/modules/update/*), shut down and then put the "syno" extra/extra2 to your loader

when booting the drivers will be back in update folder but without i915 drivers, so dsm's own i915 will be used (and with 6.2.3 it should be with gemini lake support)

just a quick warning for 6.2.3 attempts, all additional drivers from 6.2.2 will fail (crash)  to load so if you update only "native" drivers from DSM will work

the mentioned i915 firmwares can be loaded as expected to get all non apollolake/geminilake cpu's to work (tested with a 8th gen cpu, got /dev/dri devices)

looks like there is a reason why its a complete new version 6.2.3
