DSM 6.2 on ESXi

https://gugucomputing.wordpress.com/2018/10/09/%E5%9C%A8esxi%E4%B8%AD%E5%AE%89%E8%A3%9Ddsm6-2-%E6%BA%96%E5%82%99dsm%E7%92%B0%E5%A2%83/

1. Prepare .img

OFSMount the file Synoboot.img from synoboot_3615.zip with NO Read-only.
Notepad++ opens grub.cfg
set sn=1230LWN001915
set mac1=001132001915
Add a leading # to the sections of
#menuentry "DS3615xs 6.2 Baremetal $VERSION" --class os {
#menuentry "DS3615xs 6.2 Baremetal $VERSION Reinstall" --class os {
#menuentry "DS3615xs 6.2 Baremetal AMD $VERSION" --class os {
but need to keep the section
menuentry "DS3615xs 6.2 VMWare/ESXI $VERSION" --class os {
Dismount all disks and Exit

On ESXi, create "dsm62" directory and uploads synoboot.vmdk and synoboot.img
ESXi creates new VM called dsm62 Ubuntu Linux 64 bits
Allocate 2CPU 2GB
Removes default disk, SCSI controller, CD/DVD drives
Set MAC address to 001132001915
Add "Existing disk" with synoboot.vmdk
Add new SATA1 controller and new disk at SATA(1:0)

Passthrough SATA disk to VMWare ESXi 6.5 as RDMs

Passthrough SATA disk to VMWare ESXi 6.5 as RDMs

I have a Dell Precision 3420 with Intel Core i7-6700 4 Cores 8 Threads, 4 x 8GB RAM,  Micron 1100 SSD, 2TB HDD. Windows 10 was already installed on Micron SSD and I keep it intact.

Later on I installed ESXi 6.5 (VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.5.0-4564106.x86_64.iso) installed on a 16GB USD flash drive with the 2TB HDD as data store with a few more VMs created.

Now I created a VM with 1 vCPU 4GB RAM with the physical Micron SSD mounted as the only drive that boots to Windows 10.

The procedure is to create a new VM called Micron, enable ESXi SSH with 3 below commands.

1. Locate physical disk

ls -l /vmfs/devices/disks

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            72 Mar 14 10:55 vml.010000000020202020202020203137323431374137464231414d6963726f6e -> t10.ATA_____Micron_1100_SATA_256GB__________________________172417A7FB1A
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            74 Mar 14 10:55 vml.010000000020202020202020203137323431374137464231414d6963726f6e:1 -> t10.ATA_____Micron_1100_SATA_256GB__________________________172417A7FB1A:1
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            74 Mar 14 10:55 vml.010000000020202020202020203137323431374137464231414d6963726f6e:2 -> t10.ATA_____Micron_1100_SATA_256GB__________________________172417A7FB1A:2
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            74 Mar 14 10:55 vml.010000000020202020202020203137323431374137464231414d6963726f6e:3 -> t10.ATA_____Micron_1100_SATA_256GB__________________________172417A7FB1A:3

2. Confirm VM directory

ls /vmfs/volumes/2TB/Micron/

3. Create .vmdk file from Micron SSD

The idea is similar to "mnt -t nfs 192.168.1.37:/mnt/hd0/1 /volume/mtv3700d"

vmkfstools -z /vmfs/devices/disks/t10.ATA_____Micron_1100_SATA_256GB__________________________172417A7FB1A "/vmfs/volumes/2TB/Micron/Micron_RDM.vmdk"

Finally I can add the newly created .vmdk file to the Micron VM as the only harddisk. It boots to Windows 10 as if it is a physical machine.

Refus3.4.exe the .iso file to a 16GB USB 2.0 flash drive.

ESXi 6.5 requires 2 cores, x64 CPU after 2006-09, Enable Inter XS or AMD NX, at least 4GB RAM, Intel VT-x or AMD RVI, GBE.

I am using it on Intel Core i7-6700 @ 3.4 GHz CPU with VT-x and VT-d supported and 32 GB RAM installed on Dell Precision 3420.

I mostly refer to https://ithelp.ithome.com.tw/articles/10184288 and it works well.
