When I checked I was not able to find a more recent one.. I'll check again! Do you have the same date for System ROM and Backup System ROM ?

capillonpub Posted October 21, 2022 Share #54 Posted October 21, 2022 Thanks, now my ROM is uptodate ! The operating speed for memory is still stuck at 1333Mhz, despite several restart. Do you know where to update this in bios or ILO? Or is it limited by the processor version, mine is an E31265L @ 2.40GHz first generation, not an E31265L V3!

Madasafish Posted October 21, 2022 Share #55 Posted October 21, 2022 My processor is an Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1265L V2. I am not sure of the differences between V1 and V3 CPU's or if it makes a difference. Like I said before, I don't recall making any changes in the BIOS at the time of the CPU change. The only thing I can think of is while the motherboard was out to replace the CPU. It made sense to change the button battery on the motherboard with a new one. Maybe worth a try disconnecting the motherboard button battery for a few minutes and replacing it to see if that fixes the anomaly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldi Posted October 22, 2022 Share #56 Posted October 22, 2022 Must be the v2 Processor! Because I Got the 1265L for around 60$ on ebay. There were no v2 around at that time. Or way to expensive. IIRC the v3 isn't even compatible with our gen8 due to different socket. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/compare.html?productIds=52275,75463,65728 The normal 1265L isn't even listed as that's some strange 1260L with GPU included. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSCalifornia Posted January 14, 2023 Share #57 Posted January 14, 2023 I previously could solve the partial install issue by using a different browser (Firefox/Chrome/Safari) on MAC-OS or Windows. Sounds crazy, in my case the stopped install at 50-60% ran through. Maybe it helps and it is for sure was easy fix if all other parameters are correct.

freak Posted March 2, 2023 Share #59 Posted March 2, 2023 Hello, I plan to install DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 4 on a HP Gen 8 with Xeon E3-1265L v2 and I found a lot of information in this topics (BIOS SATA AHCI, DS3622xs+, ...). Thank you all very much !! Now, I have few questions about your choices : - Why do you prefer ARPL instead of TCRP for this model (I always use Jun or TCRP for my old NAS) ? - Should I disable the HP RAID interface (I think so, because of the driver issue) ? - Does the disks order is the same as physical bay with the command "./rploader.sh satamap" ? - Is it possible to use a SSD as first drive (for DSM) and a RAID volume with other disks for data without issue (My goal is to prevent volume issue if an update go wrong) ? - I know loaders well but feel free to give me hints for this particular hardware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freak Posted March 10, 2023 Share #60 Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) I have installed my NAS and answers to myself : - Why do you prefer ARPL instead of TCRP for this model (I always use Jun or TCRP for my old NAS) ? ARPL seems to be the simplest loader builder - Should I disable the HP RAID interface (I think so, because of the driver issue) ? Yes, by choosing SATA AHCI. There is no driver for this RAID interface. - Does the disks order is the same as physical bay with the command "./rploader.sh satamap" ? Yes, no command needed (with ARPL in my case) - Is it possible to use a SSD as first drive (for DSM) and a RAID volume with other disks for data without issue (My goal is to prevent volume issue if an update go wrong) ? No, each disk contains the OS - I know loaders well but feel free to give me hints for this particular hardware I found a lot of fresh information in the posts from @Madasafish @nemesis122 Edited March 10, 2023 by freak 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't choose the OS location, because it is managed by DSM, on a partition of each drive. However, with your SSD you can activate 'SSD cache' in Storage Manager that will permit to optimize performance.

KenF Posted April 29, 2023 Share #65 Posted April 29, 2023 Migrated from DSM 6 to 7.1.1, I had 4x10TB drives, plus a 1TB SSD as the fifth in a HPG8 with a Xeon E31265v2 CPU, 16GB Ram. I used the 'GUI' version of RedPill which could easily be driven from the ILO console. I had a full backup of essential data, so not too worried about the outcome. It did take a couple of attempts, (due to being stupid on my part), but it migrated all the data, yes I did have to amend some config going from 6 to 7 but generally the process was pretty straight forward. System ROMJ06 04/04/2019 System ROM Date04/04/2019 Backup System ROMJ06 11/02/2015 Integrated Remote ConsoleHTML5 .NET Java Web Start License TypeiLO Advanced iLO Firmware Version2.82 Feb 06 2023 I did update iLO and System Firmware before the upgrade. Reason for upgrade, lost a 10TB drive, was a pig to find as even surface scan said ok, but full smart test was ok, however even as a fresh build with just that one drive in the NAS Xpenology would not boot, replaced with another new 10TB drive, system fine. No messages or anything about the drive going faulty, took a week to diagnose. Thanks to all the masterminds who developed these redpill loaders.

mmih Posted November 13, 2023 Share #66 Posted November 13, 2023 Hi, I have followed all the steps from Madasafish, but, unfortunately, I did not succeed ... I've tried first with TCRP 10.0 (the latest available for download); the command "sudo ./rploader.sh build broadwellnk-7.1.0-42661" did not work, because broadwelink is not available, but worked with "sudo ./rploader.sh build ds3622xsp-7.1.0-42661". unfortunately, after reboot I receive the message: "error: symbol 'grub_disk_native_sectors' not found" (see screenshot). I've then tried with TCRP 0.9.2.6 and "sudo ./rploader.sh build ds1621p-7.1.0-42661", but the same result. I've tried arpl-1.1-beta2a.img, things seems to run, the DSM seems booting, but command prompt reappear but I cannot type commands and Synology Assistant cannot find the NAS (neither on the web interface it doesn't respond ...). On the ping it responds for 10-15 packets after the "Booting DSM" message appears, then it becomes not reachable. Any advice is very well received!

Madasafish Posted November 16, 2023 Share #67 Posted November 16, 2023 Since the time of last posting, I have re-installed Synology and am at the latest version which according to Synology is 7.1.1-42962 Update 3. It is such a long time ago, I have forgotten the process I used. I am sure it was done with ARPL in the belief it is/was simpler to use.

MBEXP Posted December 29, 2023 Share #68 Posted December 29, 2023 @mmih had the same issue when using first the TCRP uefi version, try the other one instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
