TCRP on ESXi Shutdown/Reboot

[captainfred]

I'm running the following hardware and software configuration: 

 

HP ProLiant MicroServer Gen8
Intel Xeon CPU E31260L @ 2.40GHz
ESXi 7.0.3g (Build 20328353)
Hard Drives via SATA AHCI Controller passthrough to TCRP VM
tinycore-redpill.v0.9.3.0 withfriend
DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 2
DS3617xs
open-vm-tools-12_broadwell-7.0_12.1.0-1

 

When I attempt to reboot or shutdown the TCRP VM via ESXi, it doesn't work - I forgot to include the ACPI Optional Driver Extension, is that whats required to fix this? 

 

However, now I've already done the build process of the loader and installed it all, how do I add the ACPI Optional Driver Extension afterwards?

 

I think I need to use this command but thats before the build process so not sure how to go about it now:
./rploader.sh ext ds3617xs-7.1.1-42962 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/redpill-acpid/rpext-index.json

 

Or is this an vmtools issue? ESXi says vmtools is installed and supported. If there is a newer than the one I found above I can't seem to find it...

 

Minor question... when I click release notes in the update and restore menu in control panel it tries to go to http://example.com/null.xml?model=DS3617xs&update_version=42962-2 is this a Synology bug?

 

Thanks in advance

Try this: https://github.com/AuxXxilium/synology-dsm-open-vm-tools

Don't forget: "After installation, perform code Repair Using SSH connection
sudo sed -i 's/package/root/g' /var/packages/open-vm-tools-12/conf/privilege"
