Drive help - No Serial or SMART information - ESXi Raw Devic

Recommended Posts

So I have an ESXi setup where I am passing the individual drives mapped via RDM and while my drives are being recognized just fine, they are a TON of things not working right. Here are the problems.

 

  • SMART Status is not accurate
    SMART Tests will not run
    Drive does not pass serial number
    All drives show as SSD's even though none of them are

 

I would really like these things so I can stay on top of drive health. Is there something I can do to get this, or am I just out of luck?

If you're running under ESXi none of these things work or show correctly, it's a known problem & can't be fixed. If they're important to you need to run bare metal. I'd also suggest that you do a bit of reading on the forums to familiarise yourself a bit more with Xpenology.
