(6.2.4 is not working) https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/28321-driver-extension-jun-103b104b-for-dsm623-for-918-3615xs-3617xs/ please describe in more detail what you have done/used did you follow a tutorial?

ttsume Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I used bootloader 1.03 and 1.02 (3615 and 3617) I also tried to load the file with extra.lzma drivers But the result is a hang at the time of installation .pat or does not see the network Edited March 4, 2021 by ttsume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-88 Posted March 9, 2021 Share #4 Posted March 9, 2021 if you try 1.03b then you will need to use csm/legacy mode in uefi bios and also need to select the non uefi usb boot device https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/13333-tutorialreference-6x-loaders-and-platforms/ also you can't use 6.2.4, try 6.2.0 and the update to 6.2.3 just for testing you might try to install with loader 1.04b/918+, you cpu seem new enough (needs haswell or newer) (it not so preferable because of the lis sas driver problems but might get you some experience on installing) On 3/4/2021 at 8:19 AM, ttsume said: But the result is a hang at the time of installation .pat are you sure there is no error? also i'd expect there would be a difference with 1.02b and 1.03b, like 1.03b not shown in network (as of uefi csm problem) what happend with 1.02b and installing the pat file, it usually installs and then reboots, so where exactly did it stop? did you use the webinterface or did you use synology assistant? i usually use the assistant as it seemed more reliable to find the loader in notweork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piteball Posted March 10, 2021 Share #7 Posted March 10, 2021 If I were you, I would just install ESXi 6.7 or 7.0 and run Xpenology on this with hardware redirect of hard disks into the virtual machine. That way network drivers is of no problem as you just run it with either virtual Intel 1Gbps nics or the VMware vmxnet3 virtual nics. Sure, it's been a while since I did this, as I'm now running it directly on a Supermicro S9XCL mainboard, but when I did run it under ESXi it did run just fine.

ttsume Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share #10 Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) I checked both versions, and neither was installed. The installation begins and the moment of transfer of the pat file to install it cannot load completely, I did via a web browser chrome at the time of transfer in the lower left corner is always read as 0%(send status of the file upload), but the meter is in the center of the screen says that the installation continues up to 95% and hangs.... I think the problem lies in the support for controller perc H730, or the problem is that this server configuration the two socket and the system just can't work with this chipset(C610/X99 ) On 3/12/2021 at 11:24 PM, IG-88 said: loaders https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/7848-links-to-loaders/ *.pat files 6.2.0: https://archive.synology.com/download/Os/DSM/6.2-23739 62.3: https://archive.synology.com/download/Os/DSM/6.2.3-25426 Edited March 15, 2021 by ttsume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George300 Posted March 24, 2021 Share #12 Posted March 24, 2021 Hello R430 I encountered the same problem, the installation starts but 95% hangs. Were you able to find a solution to the problem? George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttsume Posted March 24, 2021 Author Share #13 Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) unfortunately no, it was not possible to win work on the 30th series, I tried it on r630\730, I also tried it on r620, it was installed immediately without any manipulations, so I had to switch to the platform with supermicro +hba card, everything immediately worked perfectly... 5 hours ago, George300 said: Hello R430 I encountered the same problem, the installation starts but 95% hangs.

George300 Posted March 25, 2021 Share #15 Posted March 25, 2021 Hi Masters, Thank you so much for all the valuable advice. So the H730 is causing the problem. If I understand correctly, I have 3 options: 1) I install it on another device and then move the hard drive to the R430. 2) VMware ESXI 7.0 + DSM 3) I'm buying a Supermicro HBA card ... Please enter the model number (article number) of the card you are using successfully in R630. In addition to the above, other tips, advice? You advise you which version?

George300 Posted March 25, 2021 Share #16 Posted March 25, 2021 Dear All By moving the hard drive, I was able to start the software on the R430. I see the device on the network and the ping is fine. In contrast, neither the assistant nor the browser sees it. Network card configuration problem may be the cause? Proposal George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proposal if its booting on the R430 you could switch it off and then use a rescue linux to mount the system partition and then extract /var/log/dmesg, we would be able to see what driver is loaded just to make sure - you dont use the same loader (same mac addrerss in grub.cfg) more then once in you network? check you dhcp server (internet router?) for info's about ip and mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George300 Posted March 27, 2021 Share #18 Posted March 27, 2021 I entered a fixed IP address outside the DHCP domain with no error. I checked the R430 has a Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet BCN57020 network card. Unfortunately the card is not supported. Is there a dual 1 GB network card proposal recommended for Dell R430 / 630/730 server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
