Jordidh Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hi, Anybody are getting on the Z820 the Sleep and wake from Sleep? Mine are entering on sleep, but don't wake up correctly. No display, a don't spin up HDDs. Only the fans start up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amadeusex Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yes bios also.. pretty much the bios settings I had in place already. I'll check the drop table stuff as I am dropping cpupm and dmac.. sure I had it dropping nothing at one point also but never hurts to revisit. Edit - I'll send the ssdt syntax when I get back to pc,. On phone typing this is just now.. for version currently it's 21.x but have used many from V12 to 14 to 15.x. I think syntax will be -target 0 -cpu2 -l 32 -c 0 -x 0 But I have tried vanilla and many more with changing cputype panicking on boot. Cheers Hi cass67 ./ssdtPRGen.sh -p 'E5-2670' -b Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6 -w 3 -x 1 -l 32 This has worked for me with the latest version of the script. Give it a shot with: ./ssdtPRGen.sh -p 'E5-2690' -b Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6 -w 3 -x 1 -l 32 My efi folder and used kexts in s/l/e https://drive.google.com/open?id=1uyrw0FaqrIoBa8HZlBdxRQdjpHXyj8n8 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1B1d2EfQJ213d6cQizfa8195f8RsoIHrS I patched aicpupm but used the cloverpatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you mentioned in the PM the Nvidia checkboxes are ticked and no probs with the black screens now, even in verbose boot mode which was an issue I had also ... Thanks to you all on this thread ..

On my system i have it turned off in System Preferneces (ticked first box - Prevent computer from going to sleep ....) because even though network usb and gpu (nvidia gtx740) wake up just fine, the HDD's don't come back and Finder Hangs on any attempt to access 'em.

Anyone else who succeeded ? Are you booting from the LSI controller, or from motherboard SATA controller? If booting from the LSI (using Astek drivers) this is a known issue, which despeinao is currently trying to fix. It won't work unless/until he can find a solution, which is not simple. If booting from SATA controller then ignore this post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBloke Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Hi I'm booting from the Grey AHCI ports with all other drives connected at the bottom (LSI on board controller) sata/sas connectors. I'm using Despeinao's patched Astek drivers. OK. I don't have a Z820 so I can't be 100% sure, but the symptom you describe is exactly identical to the issue that despeinao and I get when booting from the LSI. I don't get it when I boot from SATA with other drives on the LSI, however my other drives are currently NTFS formatted and have no macOS programs/data on them. Basically, I'm not even using them at the moment, they're visible in Finder but that's it. So it's entirely possible that the same wake problem could exist if you have open files on an LSI drive, even if it's not being booted from that controller. You can test this by booting with all drives connected to AHCI SATA ports and then trying sleep/wake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbo Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 I don't have sleep, either, . My SO HD is connected to AHCI SATA, and when I'm testing I have all HD plugged in SAS LSI , disconnected (I have a front case for SSDs in front panel). So, I think your guess is wrong. As a side note, I don't have "computer sleep" setting in preference panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicolBolas Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Has anybody here tried booting from a Z turbo drive (old) or G2? The Z-drive G2 doesn't work on Zx20 workstation for the lack of a NVMe OpROM. I didn't try the G1 (AHCI mode). I'm using a Samsung 950pro which has the missing OpROM and can get Mac OS X Sierra to boot from it. For now I'm waiting for a compiled / updated guide to finish the Sierra setup.

It's not a "computer sleep" setting per se - It's under energy saver, the box right under the slider that says 'prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicolBolas Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 So I screwed up my Sierra install trying to use Rampage's Dual CPU DMG and I couldn't get anything booting again, even starting from scratch. Is Sierra that tricky or I am confusing steps somewhere ? @bilbo : did you take a look at this DMG ? There's a specific folder for the Z820 / Z840 there.

bilbo Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 From rampage's dmg , I take only fakesmc andVoodooTSCync.kext . Yes, I saw the z820 folder. They are: one ssdt of unknown origin and purpose. And one EFI folder, of unknown origin too. It has nullpowermanagement and voodooHDA , so, I don't recommend use it at all.

cryptomancer Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Hi guys, I've managed to get a Perc H310 (flashed to 9211-8i IT-mode) detected in Mojave by installing AstekFusion driver patched by @despeinao, I can use OpenZFS on OSX now But it's not without problem: there's no S.M.A.R.T status for the disks, which is not a good thing. I haven't try to check the MegaRaid kext or infos related to the thread or repo to see if there's a MegaCLI or other LSI utility but smartmontools is basically useless without access to those stats. And I've checked & can access those stats in Debian. Help? UPDATE: I didn't notice this at first but yesterday it became obvious that external drives (including USB Flash keys) don't have S.M.A.R.T status in Mojave, or perhaps never had been. And SAS devices are seen as external, too. Manually modifying Info.plist in AstekFusion2Adapter.kext doesn't work, diskutil still see the drives as external drives so i'm stumped. <key>Protocol Characteristics</key> <dict> <key>Physical Interconnect</key> <string>SAS</string> <key>Physical Interconnect Location</key> <string>Internal</string> </dict> Edited October 16, 2019 by cryptomancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
