Setup:
OMV 3.0.88 as a VM under ESXi 6.5 U1
HDD via RDM
hdparm -C /dev/sdb:
Code
/dev/sdb:
SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb[]: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0b 00 00 00 00 24 00 00 c0 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
drive state is: standby
But the drive is still running, spindown via hdparm -y /dev/sdb is not working at all and hdparm -C does show the wrong drive status.
Spindown was working with ESXi 6 U2 and OMV 3.0.31 and the same host system. Any idea how to fix the spindown issue with ESXi and OMV?
/etc/init.d/smartd stop on ESXi is already disabled.
If spindown with OMV and ESXi 6.5 U1 is not working, I would switch to HyperV 2016. Or any other ideas?
UPDATE:
Should I configure the RDM drives in ESXi as a SATA or SCSI controller for OMV?
