HP Micro Server Gen8 - Add support PCI NVME

Recommended Posts

In English.
Hello, currently owner of an HP Micro Server Gen8, with 16GB of ECC RAM, an Intel Xeon E3-1260L, I added a PCI Express card to put a NVME SSD but I can not find how to add support for this device in DSM, would you have an idea?

 

En français.

Bonjours, actuellement possesseur d'un HP Micro Server Gen8, avec 16Go de RAM ECC, un Intel Xeon E3-1260L, j'ai rajouté un carte PCI Express pour mettre un SSD NVME mais je n'arrive pas a trouvé comment rajouté le support de ce périphérique dans DSM, auriez vous une idée?

As we are not in french section, I will not reply in french.

 

First question is : What loader/model are you currently running ?

 

What are you trying to acheive with your NVME SSD ? use it as standard storage pool, or NVME Cache ?

Depending on your need, you will need specific loader.

 

If I'm not mistaken, there is only the latest DS923+ where you can have nvme ssd as storage pool.

But I don't know if someone made it work yet.

 

and for NVME SSD Cache, you have to check what loader supports it.

Experiment and tell us.

I don't know which model you are using,


In the case of Device-Tree-based Gemini Lake (DS920+), v1000 (DS1621+), r1000 (DS923+),

the function to automatically search for NVMe Cache in the loader is already included.


For other None Device-Tree based cases, please use my NVMe Cache activation script posted below.
