jukolaut Posted March 9, 2013 Share #26 Posted March 9, 2013 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? I can also confirm the same issue. After adding the PVSCSI to the kernel, recompiling and installing, the boot process will display: want_idx 1 index 3 want_idx 1 index 3. delay and reget many times, after that want_idx 1 index 4 want_idx 1 index 4. delay and reget again many times. Then the boot process resumes and after a while: BUG: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068 That happens in syno_libata_index_get_by_map+0x2c/0xb0 And even more after that: scemd[3738]: segfault at 8 ip ......... sp .............. error 4 in scemd And the system shutdowns after that. I guess there is some kind of watchdog that checks that the scemd is alive. My hypothesis is that there is some kind of enumeration of ata disks in drivers/scsi/sd.c that prints out the want_idx errors. I guess the index starts at 3 if because I have 2 ide devices and 3 pvscsi devices and the ide devices get the first slots? When initializing the pvscsi devices it expects them to start at index 1?

devastator Posted March 20, 2013 Share #37 Posted March 20, 2013 Any other ideas to fix the connection issue with Package Center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolmer Posted March 21, 2013 Share #38 Posted March 21, 2013 All perfect Here. Installed on VMware Workstation 9 and then uploaded to ESXi. Everything is running like a charm. Thanks!!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devastator Posted March 21, 2013 Share #39 Posted March 21, 2013 Is Package Center working too ? Why did you open it first on VMWare Workstation ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devastator Posted March 21, 2013 Share #40 Posted March 21, 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? EDIT: When i use the ovf file in ESXi5.1 it does not work..., when i use the virtualbox howto http://xpenology.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3 i works... Did you use the the above mentioned howto on ESXI, or did you just use virtualbox instead ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolmer Posted March 21, 2013 Share #41 Posted March 21, 2013 Yes i did. i´m now trying to increase disk capacity from workstation and then upload again to ESXi. Everything ran ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patmtp35 Posted March 21, 2013 Share #42 Posted March 21, 2013 its what i did too, and it works great ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devastator Posted March 21, 2013 Share #43 Posted March 21, 2013 Yes i did. i´m now trying to increase disk capacity from workstation and then upload again to ESXi.Everything ran ok. Ok, thank you ! Did you just import it in VMw WS9, and then did an export (to again OVF ?) and imported that in VSphere ? Or did you do something special ?

Rolmer Posted March 21, 2013 Share #44 Posted March 21, 2013 In workstation 9 (i dont remeber in other versions) you have the option to upload to vmware servers any virtual machine you have in your workstation. It´s as simple as right button --> upload. You import OVF to Workstation (doble click) and then upload to ESXi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devastator Posted March 21, 2013 Share #45 Posted March 21, 2013 Uploaded it to ESXI (5.1) using Workstation 9, but still unable to connect in Package Center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
