February 4, 201313 yr Has anyone had problems with esxi 5.0 and unraid? Transferring unraid from hp microserver to my new server, with esxi 5.0 one of the disks reported issues. Unraid could see it, but didnt like it. Long story short, ended up removing the disk (which smart settings says was ok) putting a bigger drive in and rebuilding. 4 times yesterday i got a unraid kernel panic. (crashed). I ended up removing all plugins with just basic setup and it was still happening currently rebuilding it , by removing the esxi (bootable esxi usb drive) and just let the system boot up on the unraid usb drive (that would normally be usb passed through to the unraid vm) It looks like all is going well so far (2 hrs to go). will boot up again on esxi and let unraid run overnight to see if it was just a issue with rebuilding the disk or something else is up. Finally anyone jumped up to esxi 5.1? Any issues?
February 4, 201313 yr No problems here in either 5.0 or 5.1 (I think there may have been auto power up dependency issues with vm's in 5 but I don't use that feature of esxi). You will probably need to give more info on your setup before we can comment further - how you're presenting your disks through to esxi etc. What does the kernel panic say?
February 4, 201313 yr With 5.1 I had a crash that I could reproduce at will until I installed patches ESXi510-201212001 and ESXi510-20121100 both are rated as important fixes by VMWare.
February 4, 201313 yr Yes - sorry I should have been more precise. No problems this end with 5.1 and all relevant patches!
February 4, 201313 yr ... and ESXi510-20121100 both ... I don't see that, did you mean: ESXi510-201210001 ?
February 4, 201313 yr Author heres the image of the panic spec of machine: AMD 8120 (8 core) 16Gb RAM Asus crosshair v board ibm m1015 (it mode) hardware pass thru corsair 750w psu oh using rc10 (soon to be 11) a quick google suggests or points to memory/memory timing/voltage. The board im using is a overclockers/gamers board (good specs inthe pci-e) will check the memory timings (they should be as default will check though tomorrow)
