Always backup your virtual machines if you are not sure

For me, because I am familiar with the disk partitioning, I would just to repartition the disk.  Depends on your comfort level.  method 1 is the "safest".

  • Add the new hard drive into the data store in ESXi 4.1

    Hi all

    I got ESX 4.1 installed on the Dell server, and I have 3 virtual machines on a data store.

    I added a new 500 GB scsi hard drive to the server,

    and I need to add it to the datasore or create a new...

    Abrams,

    That's all I can help you.  These instructions are based on the Perc 5 / i controller, which I think you have on our system.  You have not specified the server so I just assumed that this is so.

    1. unscrew the hot spare that you just made.  Follow this link from Dell.
    http://support.Dell.com/support/eDOCS/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp1061343

    2 follow the link for the installation of virtual disks - http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/RAID/PERC5/en/UG/HTML/chapterh.htm#wp1069357

    This link has three steps to void, skip the step on "spare parts of designate hot."
    a. create the virtual disks and select virtual disk options.   -Online steps to create another disk group and add the new disk to the disk group.
    (b) designate the drives hot spares (optional). =>, YOU CAN SKIP THIS STEP
    c. initialize virtual disks. -online must do.  just do not initialize the incorrect disk.

    After the step #2 c, you should be able to access the drive in ESXi or command-line (list of nmp esxcli devices).

    And no, you cannot add this manaully until do you step #2 above which is to define the disk group, creating virtual disks and initialize the virtual disk.

    Good luck.

  • Add the new SCSI controller and new drive - powershell SDK

    Hi all

    I'm trying to add the new disc of paravirtual to my VMs. There are two types of virtual machines in the environment; a Paravirtual controller attached and others are without controller; so my task is to set the new drive of paravitual using powershell SDK.

  • cannot add the new hard drive more than 2 TB on vsphere upgrade 5

    can someone give me a clue? I can't add new greater than 2 TB drive to my vm on my upgraded vsphere 5.0. My data store is 6 TB and already read by vsphere... I create new virtual machine and add the new drive, but it limits again just 2 TB when I change 4 TB, the error message will appear. I recently added my datastore LUN with VMFS5 version. is there a any mistake I made? Please help me this problem is so frustrating me... i need to create new disk 6 TB to my new file server

    Hello.

    You will need to use a RDM in physical Compatibility Mode to achieve. As weinstein5 said, a VMDK cannot be greater than 2-to-512bytes. You can use the OS to spread over several 2 TB-512bytes VMDK, if that's what you really want.

    Good luck!

  • Cannot add the new nfs datastore

    Hello

    I would like to get some advice how to add a new nfs data store. Here are the steps I did:

    (1) I have setup a stand-alone ESXi 4 server. I configured the VMNIC0 with 192.168.100.1/24 IP with Vswitch0.

    (2) I have setup a NFS storage. The NFS share is file://\\192.168.200.2\share. I tried using a Windows laptop and I can access the share.

    (3) ON the ESXi server, I created another Vswitch1 with VMNIC1 IP 192.168.200.1/24. I connect my storage to VMNIC1. ESXi, I'm able to ping my storage 192.168.200.2.

    (4) I connect my Windows laptop (IP 192.168.100.2) to VMNIC0. I am able to Vsphere Client to the ESXi server.

    (5) using the Vsphere Client user interface, I click on 'add the new data store '. The fields that I get are "192.168.200.2" and "share". I got the below error message:

    "Error while configuring the host: NFS error: unable to mount filesystem: unable to connect to the NFS server.

    What it went wrong?

    Kind regards

    Kent

    No claim, the NFS must be in the same subnet as your ESX VMKernel Port and your VI Client must be in the same subnet as the Console of the ESX Service / Management Port. But in many cases (especially with ESXi and if not configured otherwise) management and VMKernel are on the same Interface / subnet.

  • Add the new entry name of folder of bookmarks does not

    (There's a reason I'm fool the previous thread on this subject, as well as my response to this: I couldn't find a way to add FireFox 10.0.2 to the tags of the thread.) If the thread tags may be edited/added, I wouldn't highlight problems with FireFox 10.0.2 by launching this new thread.)
    RE add new bookmarks folder, can not enter the name of the new folder:

    I am now having this problem with FireFox 10.0.2, 11/03/2012

    When I click on add a folder, a new folder appears in the tree view and the folder name field is highlighted for the entry. But when I start to type characters in the field, I can only type 1 or 2 characters at the most seized stops accept input. I then go to the bookmarks menu, locate the new folder, right-click it, click Properties and complete the registration of the name of the folder.

    At worst, the folder name field will cease to accept entry as soon as I type the first tank, in which case the name of the folder will remain as "new folder." I find the new folder in the bookmarks menu to change the name, as described above.

    It is very annoying because it adds a number of additional steps just to add a new folder in the bookmarks menu. Add the new folder through the "Show all bookmarks" and navigate through the folder hierarchy are an alternative workaround, but that records all the steps.

    Any ideas or solutions?

    Hi John99,
    It has worked well in Mode without failure. Thanks for the suggestion!

    I'm going offline a bit to understand what add-on, plugin, etc., could be causing it. In the meantime, I have marked your suggestion to use Mode safe as useful so that anyone else coming here could get the clue.

    I should probably drop another line in the thread for the guy who in (or has been) using FireFox 7...

    I'll post my results if I can understand it.

    UPDATE:

    I went after any add-on which had nothing to do with bookmarks.

    It was the first add-on I tried, SortPlaces 1.9.1 that automatically sorts bookmarks in various ways according to the parameters. When I disabled it, the problem disappeared.

    I re-enabled it and checked the options to see if I could understand why she was stop to add the new folder. In the 'Options' tab, there is a time limit for how long interval SortPlaces will wait before you sort a bookmark changed or added. It was set to 3 seconds.

    It is not long enough for old men by typing the new name of folder. I put it in 10 seconds. Then, I created a new folder of bookmarks and start typing a name long nonsense, while I looked at the clock. After that 10 seconds it stopped accepting the entrance, right on the mark. What this hidden for me earlier, it was that when he stops to accept input, you don't see the new folder to place in the position of sorting on the menu add a folder. You will see that if you expand the folder later. It's probably why I didn't connect the two.

    Anyway, problem solved. I'm leaving the delay to 10 seconds. If I ever need to be longer, I'll just increase it.

    Thanks again for the suggestion of Mode safe and enjoy the next season of mud.

The only way to open a new tab is manually using the buttons on windows/t or opening the file and choosing the new tab.

    It could be that he is hidden behind another icon. Please try this: right click on the empty space after the last tab and Customize.... With the mini window open, you can move the other toolbars and icons to check if the new tab button is hidden. You can also check inside the mini window customize the icon named new tab or click Restore Default Set that will be hopefully restore back.

  • Add the new page number with gaps in indesign extension app

    Hi all

    I develop an application for extension adobe indesign with adobe flex 3.4 sdk.

    the application object is to publish the document to a remote server.

    I did well all options.

    now I am facing problems to Polish.

    the problem is,

    (1) adding new page

    Let's say that a particular indesign document (portrait) contains 6 pages.

    Page 1, 2 are spread

    Page 3

    Page 4

    Page 5, 6 are spread

    Now, I will add a new page through the indesign extension.

    When I try to add a new page. It will add to the last page of the spread. (Page 5, 6)

    Finally, he became Page 5, 6 and 7 in propagation.

    What I want is.

    After you have added the new page, the document must have the following structure.

    Page 1, 2 are spread

    Page 3

    Page 4

    Page 5, 6 are spread

    Page 7

    Is my code to add the new page.

    document: var Document = app.activeDocument;

    document.pages.Add ();

    Please suggest me how to add a new page (without extension)

    Thank you

    Malaris

    Try the code below

    document: var Document = app.activeDocument;

    document.spreads.Add ();

    But make sure you use this code on a document that may be the structure of the page that had mentioned you, that is to say it must be created by unchecking the options 'facing Pages' in the dialog box new document. Otherwise, it will add two pages of the document.

    This should solve your problem.

  • Add the new contact

    Hi, I have a problem with a part of my integration - adding a new contact. I do all kinds of things with integration objects, including the update of the Contact object and will have no problem. Specifically, it adds the new contact, but it times out:

    HttpException (0x80004005): request timed out.

    This sometimes happens, sometimes it doesn't, but it always takes a lot of time to InsertOrUpdate compared to adding/getting contact to date of other objects. (What is normal behavior?) I went through the code and everything seems fine. I just vomit this here to see if someone had a problem of simliar or off-the-top-of-the-head suggestions.

    It's been a while since I've been here and I've not been keeping up with the goings. Probably there was at least a new version since I checked last and I see now that they are at the Service of Web 2.0.

    This is a c# project and I use Web Service 1.0. I use forms authentication and I set a timeout to 20 minutes. It is based on the c# WebSelfService example I received from customer of 18 months previously.
