bossini Posted July 29, 2017 Share #1 Posted July 29, 2017 Hi, was anyone able to run DSM 6.1.x / DS3617xs in a Parallels VM on Mac? I got always the massage that it can not boot. Thanks to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-88 Posted July 29, 2017 Share #2 Posted July 29, 2017 as xpenology is running an Oracle VM VirtualBox and this is freely availible for MacOS, maybe this is your way? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossini Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted July 29, 2017 I m running already parallels for all my VM´s. So this would be the easiest way instead of installing a second VM host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polanskiman Posted July 31, 2017 Share #4 Posted July 31, 2017 I have never been able to boot DSM from parallels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnought Posted August 18, 2017 Share #5 Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Running DSM in Parallels is nearly the same like in virtualbox. Just select debian as host system and don't forget to edit the boot-Image with the corresponding mac address of your briged (W)LAN adapter. If you need more Information just ask...

TIA Sorry for the late reply, I had some issues with Parallels under Big Sur. At the moment it is possible to run DSM 6.1.x and 6.2.2 only and not the current version 6.2.3. For DSM 6.1.x you can use this loader: https://mega.nz/#!XBoCzJya!Ip_nSniC2SWznA03VzOdeKwqqs8v-CbIMnUXPfB6nPo for 6.2.2 the following https://mega.nz/#!Cd5RTCCL!VeQkSwEjTG0USuBi4qvJlsyAwRUhC9-o8Zvna5QH2aM The DSM system for your system you will find here: https://archive.synology.com/download/Os/DSM Copy the attached files into a new folder and rename the boot loader to synoboot.img. Do not rename the other files. Now open Parallels and click File -> Open and choose ds3615.vmx - File from the folder you created before. Now Parallels will import the files. Now you are able to rename the VM as you like. The first run will not be successful. You have to adjust some settings. Network: choose Bridget network and Intel Pro/1000MT as adapter. Disk: add a new disc and as adapter type SCSI. Boot sequence: choose disk 1 only (synoboot.hdd) You are able to customise the RAM. Choose what you want. With this settings you will be able to boot and access DSM via browser: <<ip-address>>:5000 ds3615.ovf ds3615.vmx synoboot.vmdk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannibal1969 Posted July 3, 2021 Share #8 Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) @DreadnoughtThank you very much! I didn't have any problem to upgrade to 6.2.3-25426. I used the parallels VM to test some storage upgrade / migrate scenarios. The only thing I have right now is that the VM complaints about an access error for disk1 which holds the synoboot.hdd Any idea how to fix this? ... I think I'm the Noob haha this is the reason why you can't go further than 6.2.2, 6.2.3 makes the SATA boot visible.

Dreadnought Posted July 9, 2021 Share #10 Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) Hi @hannibal1969, this is the reason why I mentioned not to go to version 6.2.3. I got the same errors too. I will try some combinations to fix this and keep you updated, but I hope for a new loader to play with DSM 7. UPDATE: I tried all combinations regarding the adapter type I could imagine with no success. So I will wait for a new loader.
