ZeroQI Posted February 1, 2013 Share #5 Posted February 1, 2013 Works On VMware Player 5.1 . Opened the OVF template, saved the VM were it belongs. . Changed bridge mode to host only since my Alienware M11x use mainly wifi and don't have wifi at work nor wired connection. . Used Synology assistant to connect, configured password, ip, gateway . Refreshed synology assistant, connected ok . created volume, good to use... Thanks a lot for the template, it makes it easier to test, Gigabit NIC e1000 is on by default.

Torayld Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share #12 Posted February 2, 2013 thank I work on esxi 5.1.How to resize the disk 2 ? expand disk in vmware before create volume in synology. if you want to expand after, you need to recreate volume to get the correct size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loderunner Posted February 4, 2013 Share #13 Posted February 4, 2013 (worked on my esxi 5.1) Make RDM link: # ls -l /dev/disks # cd /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/ for pRDM (Physical RDM): # vmkfstools -z /vmfs/devices/disks/ rdm_anydisk.vmdk for vRDM (Virtual RDM): # vmkfstools -r /vmfs/devices/disks/ rdm_anydisk.vmdk Add one more IDE disk Edit .vmdk of new IDE disk: # Disk DescriptorFile version=1 encoding="UTF-8" CID=907f50af parentCID=ffffffff isNativeSnapshot="no" createType="vmfsRawDeviceMap" # Extent description RW 976773168 VMFSRDM "rdm_anydisk.vmdk" # The Disk Data Base #DDB ddb.adapterType = "ide" ddb.geometry.sectors = "63" - your HDD value ddb.geometry.heads = "255" - your HDD value ddb.geometry.cylinders = "60801" - your HDD value ddb.uuid = "60 00 C2 9b 97 a8 bd d9-93 09 9e 49 05 59 4a be" ddb.longContentID = "ed52f62d56900538fd0971af907f50af" ddb.virtualHWVersion = "9" now your RDM attached as IDE to XPEnology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbjr Posted February 7, 2013 Share #17 Posted February 7, 2013 Thank you very much for the VMware img. I have it running on ESXi 5.1. Is PVSCSI supported? I can only add 2 more RDM drives as IDE. I have 3 other drives to add. Is this possible? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torayld Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share #21 Posted February 9, 2013 Is there any chance to hide the two discs from DSM?Mine complains about a crashed volume (it is pointing on the 0,2 GB disc) the first disk is just to boot system. at the first connection, you need to configure the 20Go disk or more, you can change it before launch the first i don't see the 02gb in hdd management from DSM with vBOX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! i make OVF package from andy release so yes PVSCSI is supported, add SCSI adaptater in Hardware. you can delete or resize the 20G drive if you don't need it, it's just a drive to start to work with package.

jakkes Posted February 10, 2013 Share #23 Posted February 10, 2013 I managed to add a 200GB harddisk, but when i try to use packages i get this: I have connectivity to internet when i ping to eg http://www.synology.com PING wrpx.service.mirror-image.net (81.22.37.106): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 81.22.37.106: icmp_seq=0 ttl=246 time=19.803 ms Or is it not possible to use packages with XPEnology?

I'm running esxi 5.1. I added a new SCSI disk along with a VMware Paravirtual SCSI controller in my VM. After booting up it gets to a certain point and then begins shutting itself back down. Removing the SCSI drive and controller fixes this. Are you sure PVSCSI is working correctly in this ++ build? Can anyone else test to confirm the same issue?
