1st try goes wrong

Hello there from Germany...

... I'm the new one and try to steel your nerves from now ;o)

Ok, seriously...

Today I gave OMV the 1st try. I use an SuperMicro Mainboard X10SLL-F with 64gb ECC and two LSI MPT SAS2 controller to hold 12 Bays (only 6 are in use right now).

As system drive I use a cheap 128gb SSD SATA.

I have download the last version, create an USB- Stick and install the system without any errors or other things that pay attention. Also the 6 SAS-drives show up where to pick up the right system drive. Then at end the reboot comes up, I pull the USB and the system boot right up from the SSD.

But then...

.. pls take a look at the picture (to read 2, 1, 3)... That's realy all...

PS: Excuse my ugly english pls ...

.. maybe a misunderstanding due my bad english skill ...

The SAS are only for the 6 DATA- drives. The SAS-BIOS is disabled so it just run as SAS/SATA- Host.

The SYSTEM SSD-drive is independent from the SAS and direct connected to the SATA0 of the Mainboard. That also works like a charm. Installation and booting from the SSD works well and also while installing the 6 SAS-drives are show up in the "where you like to install the system" dialog. From this view the OS see and can touch the drives...

Just coming up in my mind: Does it matter which file system exists on the DATA drives? All 6 drives are formated as ZFS2? I can not imagine, but you have already seen horses throw up ...

.. nothing? Nobody? Hmmm... Ok.. Was just a try so I will stay at XigmaNAS... That work's well with my hardware ...

... that wasn't the question ... If I can't get OMV running at my hardware I don't need to think about further steps ...

.. yes, I can try to install the last Buster at the weekend ... Good idea ...

Ok... late but now ...

I just install Buster 10.4 as NetInst. No problems. All drives, also the six ones connected via SAS, are there and useable in Buster. So the problem isn't the SAS at all and must be inside OMV (kernel, driver, ...) ...

@macom : This I will try next if you can tell me how I can access the console at the point the install like to reboot.

Not possible.. I now know about ALT-STRG-Fx to change the console window but this command is unknown also things like apt, apt-get a.s.o.

.. I previously thought that the OMV image was based on a Debian image and was only modified in such a way that unnecessary ballast was removed and OMV was added; so I would have done it as unsuspecting to be able to use the latest drivers and other things from the Debian distribution. It was not clear to me that it obviously works differently and is done differently here.

So ... feed the fish ...

What should I take? The current Buster incl. Graphical user interface (the machine is strong enough for this) as a minimal installation?

And then? Where can I find the OMV extra? On the image?

Zitat

Please do not install a graphical environment, use a minimal server installation only.

Yes, that I have read that, but there is nowhere an explanation why not?!

Ok, got it...

Then I will give it a try again... We will see what's happend in an hour or so...

... done ...

Right on the way creating the RAID6. That will take a lot of time UPS is coupled also and all the other stuff I have found...

Now waiting is shoutet out... Goes on in the evening if nothing goes wrong ...
