• Show active paths by the data store for each host

  I'm looking for a PowerCLI script that displays by cluster, by ESXi host how active paths has a data store. The output should look like:

  Paths of Active host data store

  VMFS-01 ESXi01 2

  Thank you

  Ivo

  Try this one, it shows the actual number of "active" paths by the data store.

  foreach($esx in Get-VMHost){  $hss = Get-View $esx.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
  
    $lunTab = @{}  $hss.StorageDeviceInfo.ScsiLun | %{    $lunTab.Add($_.Key,$_.CanonicalName)  }  $pathTab = @{}  $hss.StorageDeviceInfo.MultipathInfo.Lun | %{    $pathState = @($_.Path | Group-Object -Property PathState |    where {$_.Name -eq "active"} | Select -ExpandProperty Group)
  
      if($pathTab.ContainsKey($_.Lun)){      $pathTab[$_.Lun] += $pathState.Count    }    else{      $pathTab.Add($lunTab[$_.Lun],$pathState.Count)    }  }
  
    foreach($mount in ($hss.FileSystemVolumeInfo.MountInfo | where {$_.Volume.Type -eq "VMFS"})){    $mount.Volume.Extent |    Select @{N="VMHost";E={$esx.Name}},      @{N="Datastore";E={$mount.Volume.Name}},      @{N="LUN";E={$_.DiskName}},      @{N="Active Paths";E={$pathTab[$_.DiskName]}}  } } 
  

• Active path to the folder of Photoshop Plugins/panels

  I am one of those who rush to re-create a panel that has been done in the HTML5 configurator please bear with me.

  For a javascript script, I try to find the path to a file in the 'active' folder within my group for Mac and Windows. I want that the path to open a specific file. Here's the Basic code:

  function selLss1() {var idOpn = charIDToTypeID ('Opn');

  var desc176 = new ActionDescriptor();

  var idnull = charIDToTypeID ("null");

  desc176.putPath (idnull, new file (' / assets/file.psd "));

  executeAction (idOpn, desc176, DialogModes.NO);

  }

  ' / assets/file.psd ' is the file and I need to know how to know Photoshop how to find and open this file in Mac and Windows.

  Thanks in advance - Sam

  Hi Tom - I thought about it. Was CSInterface.js in the lib folder.

  Once again thanks a lot for your help. I would have never been able to convert my Configurator HTML5 shutters without your help.

• EQL MEM Kit - active paths reduced from 4 to 2 after the installation of SDK Dell MEM

  Hello

  We currently have 1 group EQL which EQL 1, PS6100XS member. The PS6100XS Member currently has 3 data warehouses. In courses run ESXi 6.0 u2 and MEM kit 1.3.0.410095 (dell-eql-mem-esx6 - 1.3.0.410095). The ESXi host has 4 network dedicated to EQL iSCSI adapters. All networks are confirmed to be installed properly with good ESXi iSCSI Port binding.

  Before you install the SDK Dell MEM on the ESXi host, active paths in the vSphere EQL data store shows 4 paths. After you install the SDK Dell MEM, it correctly sets the path to DELL_PSP_ROUTED but the railways reduced to 2 for each data store:

  

  Note: it is not a high volume of traffic again on data warehouses because it was such an environment relatively new.

  Any thoughts as to why there are only 2 active channels showing and not 4?

  -Saud

  Hello Saud,

  This behavior is quite normal.  MEM and the table negotiating connections as needed.  Each connection consumes memory on the table, reducing the County means that more memory is available for the cache.

  Even under load, you won't probably each approach the bandwidth of two GbE NICS.  The only way to get that kind of flow is completely sequential loads with big block.  Then only the backup of servers and video streaming servers generate this kind of load.   Hypervisors tend to be just the opposite.  Since you have multiple VMs all do another IOs load becomes very random storage.  If the back-end storage tends to need of IO on MB/sec rates.

  With more than 2 x cards and MEM, MEM will use different cards for different volumes.  For network adapters will get used, but not every NIC for each volume.  If a NIC fails, it will use another NIC to replace.

  Also consider what happens to storage.  A PS6100 has 4 x GbE NIC.  If you max 4 x network adapters on a server you would also be max on the Board with a single node.

  If you have installed SANHQ you will see this clearly enough.

  Kind regards

• Is it possible to easily just change the first part of the path from one channel to the other?

  Due to a disk failure, the first part of the path to the library changed and disconnected so many photos that I've been using photoshop for more than 8 years. I am running windows 7 with photoshop elements 14. An example is the original path was 3 28 \\dualdisk02\bobk\myphotos\2010 and now the path is 3 28 \\dualdisk03\latk\myphotos\2010 is it possible to easily just change the first part of the path from one channel to the other?

• Convert a path in the shape of a mask path

  It is a question that has been requested before, but as far as I know, has not received a satisfactory answer.

  So I have a rectangle that I made in a shape layer, and I want to it by using the effect of the race, because I need the form to scale, and I found that the scales from the standard race in a shape layer when you turn the STROKE layer

  But with him being a shape path and a parametric shape path that I can't copy/paste this shape as a mask.

  At this point, @Todd_Kopriva

  usually appears to copy and paste the following text:

  
  

  
  

  "command to convert a path of the parametric form of a Bezier curve layer:

  You can convert a path of a Bézier path after the path has already been created by context-click (right-click or control-click on Mac OS) the Group of properties for the path (for example, the Rectangle drawn 1) and choosing convert Bézier path command in the context menu. If the path is animated (retouching), converted Bézier path is a static path based on the way at the present time; keyframes are lost. »

  Who indeed converts the path, as far as I can see, but unfortunately this does not seem to help me pass this way in a mask layer

  Any ideas?

  
  PS someone else has a really weird problem with this forum where you will write a response and everything suddenly find your cursor/Carat jumped a few lines and you type half an answer at the end of a previous line?

  I went through this dozens of times on this forum. To be successful, you need to set a keyframe. Here goes:

  1. Select your shape (Rectangle 1) and right click and select Convert to Bezier path
  2. Open the Rectangle 1 path and set a keyframe
  3. Copy
  4. Select the layer that you want to add a mask of
  5. Choose the pen tool
  6. Click anywhere on the layer to set the first vertex
  7. If you try to put a mask on a shape layer, you must reset the pen tool to create a mask instead of a new form, before setting the first vertex
  8. Dough

  That's all. Works every time. The only problem is that the layer you add the mask must be posted on the default transformation and the shape layer, that you have copied from must also be to default transformations. That and everything works every time.

• Get the path of the active document from Photoshop

  It works in Photoshop and Bridge script (Javascript)

  var myPath = activeDocument.name;

  Tester.PSD

  This only works in Photoshop script (JavaScript), but not in the bridge.

  var ProcessFolder = activeDocument.path

  actually stops the script, without error or warning.

  How can I get the path to the file in the active document in Photoshop through Bridge?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You can use BridgeTalk to communicate between applications

  In this case, there is the code and you must run it from the bridge to get the information you need for photoshop:

  // run this from Bridge to get the path of the active document
  // if photoshop is not running, it gives that message
  // if photoshop is Busy, it gives that warning
  // if photoshop has any images opened, it avoids getting the path and warn you
  
  pathFromPS();
  
  function pathFromPS() {
      var bt = new BridgeTalk;
      bt.target = "photoshop";
      bt.body = '(app.documents.length > 0) ? app.activeDocument.path : "No active images";';
      bt.onResult = function (resObj) {
          activePath = resObj.body;
      }
      if (BridgeTalk.getStatus (bt.target) == 'IDLE') {
          bt.send(3);
      } else {
          activePath = (BridgeTalk.isRunning(bt.target)) ? "[Busy]" : "[Not Running]";
      }
      return activePath;
  }
  

• How many active paths by a LUN on the controller use Active/Active array.

  Hi all

  I have a symmetrical controller active/active table and two HBAs on the host ESXi (also two SAN switch).

  In this case, I have 4 paths per LUN, right!

  I wonder how active paths by a logic unit number exist at the same time, when I put the round robin PSP.

  and also how much marketshares of controller active/active table against active-passive array controller in production about.

  Thank you all.

  VAAI provides a provisioning also with many other functions.

  It is rehabilitation possible storage when I delete some files on the virtual machine (not delete any VM storage vMotion)?

  No - TP reclaramtion only works on removing a VMDK set.

  In other words, VAAI with Thin Provisioning supports retrieval based on storage when vDisk VM has been diminished?

• NULL to follow the path of the form a mask

  Hi all

  I'm racking my brains and I do not remember if CS6 version will allow me to indicate a Null value to a track of forms of mask?

  IE: To draw an ellipse, and a null value follow the path of the ellipse...

  So then maybe a path > on > how > please?

  Thank you

  SF

  If the solid with the elliptical mask is the same resolution H & V & NOMINAL as the model, you can copy the mask and paste it into the position property of the null value.

• Change the path inside and outside areas in the vector mask

  Hey all lovers of the PS/CS,.

  This is probably an easy, yet, being pretty new to this, I have to ask.

  I have so this vector mask on a layer, and singing along to the Beatles I'm changing tracks on this subject. Well, what it is is a rectangle to crop a photo, nothing crazy. This rectangle is too big for my taste - so I just draw another, smaller on the inside and plan on deleting one.

  But! The second, smaller rectangle is considered to be a delicacy to take away the first (so its interior is considered to be 'black' mask-wise, that is cut out, and its outer part is 'white', which is kept in). Thus, when you remove that first, largest, the entire image will appear, except for the part that I want in the Middle, which is cut! Yes - it's the opposite of what I want.

  Now, I tried to use the path selection tool and change the fill color of the rectangle, but you can not... So, how you reverse both inside and outside of a closed path? Thanks in advance!

  Charles

  So, how you reverse both inside and outside of a closed path?

  Select the path with the tool Selection of track and in the Options bar change the path of the operations.

  

• Is it possible to save the document as the channel... mask selection?

  Ad 1)

  If you mean a channel:

  app.activeDocument.selection.store (app.activeDocument.channels.add ())

  If the layer is selected it should load the layer as a selection mask:

• Incorrect paths for active content after the update of the models

  When I apply a new model with a page in Dreamweaver CS3 all links updated correctly with the exception of any content active. The paths of active content (files .swf) point to the correct locations. The paths to the files remain the same, as if they were always pointing towards the model. All other links and paths are updated properly (images, links), but not the Flash. Everyone heard talk of this problem/bug? I just can't understand why it's happening.
  I must add, however, when you open a new document from the template links ARE correct. Only when the application of the template to a page, or when I update the model and update the pages associated with it that happens. Am I missing something?

  Thanks Murray. Who did the trick.
  I guess I'll use only the paths relative to root for the insertion of these objects in the future.

  I have a series of PSD files each with a layer mask with a default opacity of 100%. PS, I change the 'density' of the layer of about 15% in order to achieve the desired result. Either way, the layer mask is also an inactive Alpha channel.

  My question is that when I include the series of the PSD AE as-is, the layer mask is available as a black. It doesn't seem to be a way adjust the density of the mask as in Photoshop. I tried to use an alpha channel and track matte, but no luck. The main PSD file has the default active layer apparently mask with no way to change it.

  Maybe I'll have to put in place an action on PSD files?

  Thank you.

  

  AE is not layer masks as separate channels, it uses only the calculated pixel opacity. Simply, you cannot use this method. Rasterize your stuff to separate the layers.

• Displacement of the image mask.

  I have just moved from CS3 to CS6. Previously, when you work on a layer mask I could make the active image by command - ~. It does not work now - is there an another keyboard shortcut for this? I can't find any references to this anywhere. I use a Mac, OS 10.7.4.

  From CS4, you must "Option + click" on the layer mask to reveal the toggles between the image and the mask.

  However, there is an option that CS6 is for experienced users inherited, like you!

  Photoshop > Edition > keyboard shortcuts.

  

  Activate the check mark on the reading highlighted area in the image - use Legacy shortcuts channel. You will be able to revive the existing shortcuts for channels / layers.

  Note that CS6 has many improvements in orders of shortcut to the other layer / channel options and tools within the PS you will be sacrificing these if you choose to use channel Legacy shortcuts.

  However, the trust that helps
