oddball Posted January 4, 2022 Share #3401 Posted January 4, 2022 Hello, so what is the conclusion regarding stability of RedPill + DSM 7.x from the people who tried it? Is it actually usable as a daily driver? Anyone brave enough to run it as 'primary' NAS platform? Any weird bugs / crashes once the system is deployed? Not interested in Docker support or any crazy apps, just basic NAS functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you explain why "SasIdxMap": "0", "SataPortMap": "42", "DiskIdxMap": "0004" is the right configuration for my setup? I would like to unterstand why "SataPortMap": "4" is not working and "DiskIdxMap": "0004" is necessary. My thoughprocess according your `lssci -Hv` output was: Device 0-3 are 4 ports on the first controller 0000:00:1f.2 Device 4-5 are not are not counted as they are usb devices Device 6-7 are 2 ports on the second controller 000:00:1c.5 That's how I came up with 42. But then I remembered PATA is classic IDE which has a primary/secondary mode for the disk - that's what made me think that 44 might be correct. Appearently PATA is not counted like that. 0004 = driver position the first drive on the controllers starts, when you break it down you get 00 on the first controller, which translates to drive 1. As the controller has 4 ports, the first drive of the 2nd controller should start at 04, which translates to the fifth drive.

Don't be fooled by all posts here, people are just grasping for anything right now as this is our only hope of getting newer DSM working, but it's not finished and we don't know if we still have anyone working on solving all possible issues like support for drives larger then 2TB on SCSI/LSI controllers and many more.

loveburn Posted January 5, 2022 Share #3406 Posted January 5, 2022 Hello guy's i Install DSM 7.0/1 42218 on baremetal config (actualy i am try to update from 6.2.3 ds918_, but the system partition has been formated) Asrock z370M-ITX AC CPU: Intel Core i3 8100 RAM 16GB DDR4 2666 6xHDD+1xM2 2x GBE ......................................................................... So after building redpill all work's perfectly (HBA trascoding, power mgt e.t.c) but in Storage manager can view only 4x HDD but the system detects all storages... like on photo bellow... so question is @Can i extend the drives info ? or it's normaly for 918+??? best regards....

I am asking cause my CPU has 16 threads and as far as I know DS3615xs only supports 8 threads.

wt19891207 Posted January 7, 2022 Share #3411 Posted January 7, 2022 Why does no one compile and adapt newer graphics card drivers such as UHD750 UHD730 based on the intel i915 driver to make the face of photos work in a way similar to the native driver? Is this complicated, or is it something that cannot be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hannibal1969 Posted January 7, 2022 Share #3419 Posted January 7, 2022 Hi awesome's. I managed to setup a baremetal 7.01 (DS-918) on a test disk. Everything is working fine and now I want to migrate 5X SATA 4TBs in SHR from 6.2.3 latest to this 7.0.1 My plan is to start the NAS with the new USB booter (which works on test disk) and boot it. If its correct Synology Assistant will allow me to connect and migrate the NAS. Although I have backups I like to know if I have to take extra precautions? 2nd Noob questions. Will this USB 7.0.1 booter keep working in following releases or do I have to recompile everytime a new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haydibe Posted January 8, 2022 Share #3422 Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) @idleyour user_config.json is missing `"netif_num": 4,` According https://github.com/RedPill-TTG/redpill-load: Quote If you want to add more ethernet cards simply put mac2/mac3/mac4 and netif_num to the number of card I have no idea wether this is what is causing the problem...

Not interested in Docker support or any crazy apps, just basic NAS functionality. So just a quick followup on this - got RedPill (jumkey's fork - DS918+) up and running with DSM 7.0.1 on ESXi 7.0 VM with e1000e + SATA PCI passthrough and it 'just works', only had to set these parameters to ensure bootloader drive is not visible in the UI. The loader image attached to port 1 on virtual SATA adapter and every other 'real' disk is using 3x SATA controllers from the motherboard in PCI passthrough mode (16x ports in total). "DiskIdxMap": "1000", "SataPortMap": "1", No crashes, freezes, or anything weird in dmesg. As far as I can tell, everything is functional (not touching Docker though, don't need it on NAS). New btrfs features like zstd compression work as expected. I have done a few stress tests / rebuilds (pulling disks etc.) with ~ 20TB pool - no issues. I am pleasantly surprised, was expecting doom and gloom (unstable messy alpha-quality code) based on the previous posts here and while there might be some bugs lurking somewhere still, at least on ESXi the RedPill loader seems to be as stable as Jun's one at this point. On a random physical hardware this thing might be more of a hit and miss, I suppose. Will test more, but since loader does not interfere with operation of Synology software, in the worst case if this thing explodes, the fix would be just to pull the drives from ESXi host and place them in a real Synology hardware (or re-assemble the array on Ubuntu or similar) Edited January 8, 2022 by oddball 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
