koroziv Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share #26 Posted February 28, 2017 Not that I know of. Try importing in ws12 jun's loader directly ( the alpha for 6.1). After importing do not start the vm, edit the settings to your preferences. Add a drive (on the scsi controller) for install save the settings and export. You might need to convert it before export, make it hw 10 or 9. As a general note, I use my router admin ui to determine what ip is allocated to the vm. If I get on the pc today I'll try to make one for hw version 9. We can setup a team viewer session if you want, pm me and I'll try to help.

zagor Posted February 28, 2017 Share #27 Posted February 28, 2017 The hw 10 vm should work in esxi 5.5. I can't test but that's why I chose hw version 10 and not 11 or 12, many use the old 5.5. In ws12 I can import and run hw10 version with no issues, didn't try the hw13 one. What hardware are you using? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk I'm using the following : HP Proliat DL380 G7 ESXi 5.5 (standard/built in network and controller) I have a lot of other VM's running on this host and they work fine. I have only 1 LAN interface active on the ESX and all other VM's are using it fine. DHCP works to other VM's. Is there a way to what the console says? In WS12 I get: "The import failed because C:\Users\XXXX\Desktop\6.1hw10\6.1.ovf did not pass OVF specification conformance or virtual hardware compliance checks. Click Retry to relax OVF specification and virtual hardware compliance checks and try the import again, or click Cancel to cancel the import. If you retry the import, you might not be able to use the virtual machine in VMware Workstation." I press retry and the ovf gets deployed in WS12 but when I fire it up the console says: EFI VMware Virtual SCSI Hard Drive (0.0) : Unsuccessfull EFI VMware Virtual SATA Hard Drive (0.0) : Unsuccessfull WS12 is my second option, I want to get it to work in ESX. I'm thinking that I can convet it to ESX if I get it to work in WS12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koroziv Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share #28 Posted February 28, 2017 That is the way I got it made. First from jun's to ws12, edited and converted the vm, then exported for the esxi use. The install process was made on a esxi vm. Start a team viewer session, will try to make it work together.

zagor Posted February 28, 2017 Share #29 Posted February 28, 2017 Thanks koroziv for the help...but it still is not working. Thinking of installing ESXi 6.5 and try. Will report back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koroziv Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share #30 Posted February 28, 2017 I didn't really helped nothing worked; and the lag from ws12 in teamviewer was legendary I tried to use jun's loader directly, to eliminate all possible issues generated from my created vm, but that also didn't get an ip address. Try and create another xpeno 5.2 for test, see if that works; since you already have one going the new one should also work; if not there is a problem with the current esxi network setup. Not sure if the esxi version is the problem, but I hope you find a solution (and share it with us) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megapearl Posted February 28, 2017 Share #31 Posted February 28, 2017 I'm having the same problem as zagor. Deployed ovf fine, but can't find synology in network. It isn't requesting ip via dhcp, so network doesn't seem to work (tried E1000 and E1000E) and tried Different MAC's also. Also tried the 4 boot options and isn't working for me either. I'm on ESXi 6.5 with Loader 2.0.9 installed to also run MacOS, gonna try to install on another host without that loader, maybe the loader is the problem.

chege Posted February 28, 2017 Share #36 Posted February 28, 2017 I've got problem with importing ovf then i choosed simplest possible solution. Create new VM as usual, linux - other 64 bit, etc. Then add 1st hdd from jun's package and add other hhd's tocreate volumes. Thats all. DSM 6.1 works with no problem. Im having ESXI 6.

koroziv Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share #37 Posted February 28, 2017 That is the simplest and easiest way to do it. I made this vm's for the lazy and for those that have issues with jun's images, like I had the first time with the loader for dsm 6.0. Unfortunately some setups are to diferent from mine, hardware or software gremlins can cause problems.

megapearl Posted February 28, 2017 Share #39 Posted February 28, 2017 That's the point, it can't find the DSM 6.1 using find.synology.com or the synology assistant program. I have 2 other DSM's running on the same ESXi host that are working fine, that's the DSM 5.2 from Xenoboot and DSM 6.0.1 from oktisme. Also tried to migrate the DSM 6.1 to another ESXi host (without loader), same problem, it can't find the synology and isn't requesting ip from dhcp server.

koroziv Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share #40 Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) Here you have a video with the vm creation process No time to put it on youtube, and I'm not sure that it won't be taken down for various legal reasons. You will see there that I get an ip, if find.synology.com is not working try using other means to see all the clients in your lan. Edit - video removed, to little info for a 400 mb file maybe i'll make a better one someday. Edited March 1, 2017 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its possible that other DSM VM you have running has the same MAC as the new one you try to run with DSM 6.1. That way one VM wont be found by find.synology.com. Try this: - VM settings: in options set boot time to few seconds, - when you start new VM, with DSM 6.1, in grub options click 'e', - edit command by adding: set mac1= - F10 to start VM.

Some progress: It seems that there is some problem with DHCP, the DSM 6 is not requesting/getting ip correctly. I tried force set ip dirict to MAC: arp -s 192.168.1.236 00-0C-29-BB-AF-89 THIS WORKED...not as expected, but it seems that it "fired up" the DHCP client in the DSM and now it got an IP. Not the ip I tried to set, but another ip from the DHCP server. I can now see it with Synology Assistant. I will investigate more when I have time, but for now I can access the DSM.

koroziv Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share #45 Posted March 1, 2017 If you want to change the Mac you need to edit the cfg file on the boot vmdk. I think you can also press c or e during the boot sequence and issue a command like Mac 00xx00xx0whatever Not sure about the key and the correct syntax for changing the Mac address but I remember reading something about that. Maybe someone can clear this up ? I can confirm that the Mac ending in a785 is the one in the loader, all my test vm's have the same one. Edit Lol, just a few posts above: Hit e during boot Set mac1= Thanks chege Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that you can change the MAC with Jun's Xpenology tool, but can you unset it and let it take the MAC of the virtual VM LAN in ESXi ?
