magicdotjs Posted October 22, 2016 #1 Posted October 22, 2016 I have been holding off upgrading to DSM 6 since seeing the main thread started months ago hoping that eventually there would be an "official" release of XPEnolougy DSM 6 by now. This hasn't happened yet but I can see a lot of people have successfully got it running so since. I had a spare ESXI host I thought I would give it a go. I saw a couple of posts where people claimed just clicking update and going to find.synology.com allowed them to get it working. This actually worked for me as well which I was surprised about but none of my volumes are working, the data isn't important so I have even tried to format them but they still unmount during the reboot. Does anyone know if I can fix this issue? I am happy to reinstall again or delete the disks in esxi to start fresh but not sure what will even work so looking for suggestions I have read a lot of threads/posts and I think a sticky thread would be nice with the latest install methods and any bugs with fixes/workarounds
magicdotjs Posted October 22, 2016 Author #2 Posted October 22, 2016 When I try creating a group I get "failed to apply settings" and when I boot I get a notification saying "Abnormality detected on NAS2. All volumes have been unmounted."
FatalIll Posted October 22, 2016 #3 Posted October 22, 2016 How are your drives mounted in your server? As in, what kind of backplane? The new loader for 6.0 doesnt have a lot of the kernel drivers or drivers in general. So if you have a RAID card or HBA card you might be SOL.
magicdotjs Posted October 22, 2016 Author #4 Posted October 22, 2016 They are using the onboard raid in the HP N40L. I have now setup a 2nd VM on the same server using a OVF template someone posted, this VM doesn't update to version 845, I get error 21 when it gets to 20%. I was able to create a volume on the 16GB vmdk that it installed which I think was using IDE. I have now formatted a disk and created a new SCSI vmdk but it is now showing up in storage manager so I am a bit further on with disks but not able to update, I might try a new vmdk in workstation instead of vSphere and choose SATA or IDE.
