benbensgy Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Hello all, Having my DSM running on a HP microserver gen8 virtualized using Hyper-V. However it seems that VMs cannot read HDD S.M.A.R.T and temperature info. How do I solve it? Thanks for any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoondoggy Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Are you using AHCI or B120i for the disk controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drashna Jaelre Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Virtualized.... DSM is running in a VM, with the disks passed through to the VM, right? If so, then this is 100% normal. HyperV does NOT pass on SMART data to the VM. It's one of the biggest issues with HyperV that I have (that and not being able to increase resources "live").

Drashna Jaelre Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Thank you for the reply! How about Exsi? Yes, I believe so. However, you need to use "RDM" (Raw Device Mapping) to do so. I'm a hyperV guy, so I'm not really sure how to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmwills Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I just checked on Hyper-V 2016 and this feature is not in there either, however they did include the hot adding of NICs and RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoondoggy Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 iLo could flag you with some warning and failure info, but you would need a local mail server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
