NoFate Posted November 30, 2016 Share #1 Posted November 30, 2016 hi decided to install esxi on my asrock n3150 , installed xpenology after reading threads, its impossible to send smart status to xpenlogy, since raid controll on my mainboard is not capable so how can i send email alerts on disk status? i have a backup system now, but whats the advantage of backup if you cant check hard disk status Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badbad2000 Posted December 1, 2016 Share #3 Posted December 1, 2016 yes, you need to get a sata HBA card that supported by the loader then Configuring VMDirectPath I/O pass-through. Make sure your mobo support this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFate Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted December 1, 2016 can you show me a compatible hba card? with 2-4 ports? i have now mapped raw lun ports, using virtual rdm, like in this guide post 1 : viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3132 , is that what you mean? do you mean by , my mainboard supports it, you mean the slot?, i have a - 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 Slot do all card are recognized by the esxi later on ? as a passthrough ? thnx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
