Disk partitions and smart drive status do not work under DSM 6.2

[WeterPeter]

It would be nice to make that work.

thanks,
Peter

hi Peter, synonym install the original webmin without modification. only adjustment to synology file system layout and startup system is done.

therefore displaying disk partitions and smart drive must be adjusted in webmin.

can you give me examples with screenshot and system commands to show the problems.
I'll try to report the problem to webmin hopefully with an idea how to fix it.

[WeterPeter]

Sorry but I do not completely understand what you like me to do.
I am willing to provide the details.

Please explain?

regards,
Peter

[gnadelwartz]

attach some screenshots what webmin is displaying on your NAS and what synology DSM shows plus explain what's missing/wrong.

[gnadelwartz]

here are some screenshots how its shown on my Synology:

For me the disk partitions and smart status is shown ...

[WeterPeter]

Webmin RAID works:

Wemin Logical volume management works too:

Webmin Partition does not work (I have tried all options, fdisk / parted):

Webmin SMART disk status does not work either:


I have tried some other otions beside the default.
I am running webmin on a DS920+ :

Do you need anything more? I'd be glad to provide it.

Regards,
Peter

try if "smartctl" instead of "/usr/bin/smartctl" and no parameters work in general ...
These are my settings:

[gnadelwartz]

Additional Info from which on terminal:

Path to parted "/sbin/parted"
Path to fdsik: "/sbin/fdisk"
Path to smrtctl: "/bin/smartctl"

I recommend to try commands without path first, my partitions are detected by parted
If fdisk/parted is not working, smartcrl is also not working because webmin need to find disks with fdisk/parted first.

[WeterPeter]

Sorry but that does not work either and of course that is dependent on the PATH of webmin which I have set to for /opt/bin/ first to get the binaries witch are slightly newer.

/bin/smartctl 6.5 (build date May 7 2020) [x86_64-linux-4.4.59+] (local build)

/opt/bin/smartctl smartctl 6.6 2017-11-05 r4594 [x86_64-linux-4.4.59+] (localbuild)
Copyright (C) 2002-17, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org

As I run a external disk pack though USB with 4 drives in a RAID5 configuration not supported by DSM it would be nice to get smartctl running under webmin to detect drive faults.

[WeterPeter]

Additional Info from which on terminal:

Path to fdsik: "/sbin/fdisk"
Path to smrtctl: "/bin/smartctl"

I recommend to try commands without path first.
If fdisk is not working because of wrong path smartcrl is also not working because webmin need to find disks with fdisk first.

$ sudo /opt/sbin/fdisk -l > 1
$ sudo /sbin/fdisk -l > 2
$ diff 1 2
Gives no output so the output of both fdisk commands are identical.

The versions are not very much different:
$ sudo /sbin/fdisk -v
fdisk from util-linux 2.26.2
$ sudo /opt/sbin/fdisk -v
fdisk from util-linux 2.30.2

I agree with you fdisk or parted (MSDOS / GPT) must first work but I cannot find out why this fails?

regards,
Peter

send me "fdisk -l" and "parted -l" output to ... as tar or zip pls. I'll try to process manually in my test environment.

[WeterPeter]

Ok, sending it now...

[WeterPeter]

Ok, we continue through email.

thanks for your help.
