andale Posted September 1, 2016 #1 Posted September 1, 2016 Hi @all. Does anyone know if the HPE SC08e card works with XPEnology? I have a HP MSA P2000 G3 with 12x2TB which I would like to connect to one of my XPEnology bare-metal systems. Cheers
Trantor Posted September 1, 2016 #2 Posted September 1, 2016 Hi @all. Does anyone know if the HPE SC08e card works with XPEnology? I have a HP MSA P2000 G3 with 12x2TB which I would like to connect to one of my XPEnology bare-metal systems. Cheers Yes the HPE SC08e adapter uses LSI chip supported by the mpt2sas driver which is included by Synology on their genuine NAS So I think you can install the standard XPEnoboot and DSM should detects it Download : viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5026 Before testing the standard version, can you please test my test version based on RS18016xs+ which use SAS controller like yoursand report back if your drives are detected or not. It's an early test build so test it with disk without data ! Download : viewtopic.php?f=2&t=18089&p=71404#p71404
andale Posted November 14, 2016 Author #3 Posted November 14, 2016 Thanks for your reply. Yesterday I finally managed to connect the vdisk volume (RAID 10 on 12x2TB P2000 G3) to my XPenology with the SC08e. Unfortunately every time I try to create a volume DSM stops the process immediately. I think that my controller's firmware (afaik the SC08e is a branded LSI 9200-8e) needs a downgrade to the P19 (IT mode). I'll try this and report back. P.S.: I connected both ports from the P2000 with the HBA. Is it normal that one vdisk volume shows up 2 times in DSM?
