NoFate Posted November 30, 2016 #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
NoFate Posted November 30, 2016 Author #2 Posted November 30, 2016 i have this maiboard : http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/N3150DC-ITX/ it seems it have a pci express slot can i buy a cheap raid controller for that pci express, so it can passthrough the smart status? thnx in advance
badbad2000 Posted December 1, 2016 #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.
NoFate Posted December 1, 2016 Author #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
NoFate Posted December 1, 2016 Author #5 Posted December 1, 2016 if i buy this one? https://www.startech.com/nl/Kaarten-Per ... t~PEXSAT32 or http://www.sybausa.com/index.php?route= ... uct_id=156 (4 port one) => marvell chipset, not sure if its working on dsm 5.2 ? https://www.startech.com/be/nl/Kaarten- ... EXESAT322I => asmedia asm1061 , after googling should work on dsm its a 2 port, according to specs its a pci express 2.0 x1 , should be working on my motherboard will this be working on my xpeonology and esxi without adding drivers and stuff? thnx so i have the smart status then ?
