adding additional drives in the application process

Hi, how it is possible to add additional disks in the application process? Now, go in the settings of the virtual machine in vCenter client to add disks after the virtual machine has been created in LCM. We take for the applicant specify how many additional disks and what size (just not RDM VMDK)

Thank you

It can get quite complicated because this is certainly not the standard features of LCM and would not be supported by VMware if this customization is not performed by the team of the Orchestration Services of our Professional Services organization... However, that being said, a general approach would be as follows:

  • Duplicate the workflow application for Virtual Machine to the category of workflow custom under user and give a custom name like ask VM

  • Add new entries to the custom workflow that are something like: additionalDiskCount (number) and additionalDiskSize (number) (which implies that all the additional disks would be the same size)

  • Update the workflow to store these values by using a standard LCM Action such as:

System.getModule("com.vmware.lcm").addDataToTokenKeyAsString (provisioningToken, additionalDiskCount, "additionalDiskCount");

System.getModule("com.vmware.lcm").addDataToTokenKeyAsString (provisioningToken, additionalDiskSize, "additionalDiskSize");

The two lines above will store the specified user to other values that the token of data in the database of LCM and you will be able to get it back later because it is related to this particular request token.

  • Hide the initial request button of the tab requests and create a new button that points to your custom workflow

  • Create a new workflow that takes an object of lcm:ProvisioningToken as an entry called "token".

  • Inside of this workflow (let's call it 'Add disks to ask'), you will need to retrieve the additionalDiskCount and additionalDiskSize values that have been stored with the token:

additionalDiskCount = System.getModule("com.vmware.lcm").getDataFromTokenKeyAsString (token, "additionalDiskCount");

additionalDiskSize = System.getModule("com.vmware.lcm").getDataFromTokenKeyAsString (token, "additionalDiskSize");

  • You then get the object of VMware3:VirtualMachine of your token:

VM = System.getModule("com.vmware.lcm.vim3").getVmFromToken (token);

  • Then, using those extracted values and the virtual computer object, use a loop to pass these parameters and some other default values you want in the workflow 'Add drive' (it's in the category library/VIM 3/Virtual Machine management/Device Management workflow.)

  • Once you have confirmed that this new workflow 'Add disks to ask' is working properly by passing only an object token with these entries of additional data stored with them, you can add this workflow for the reminder 'onCreate '.

The above process is a general approach that could be taken. The specifics of real workflows that you create are up to you and the support of this customization

Good luck!

  • Adding additional drives to the content server

    I intend to order the model of the device of the TCS (TCS-C220- PROBUN-K9).  But the condition is to have more than 2 TB of Hard drive in this server.  Model of the device comes with 600 GB of hard drive capacity (2 x 600 GB in RAID 1).  I would add 6 slots to over 600 GB hard drives that there are 6 free on the server.  Is this possible.  If so, may I know the part number for the HARD drive.  Thanks in advance.

    Although you are able to do this, it is not a supported Cisco configuration.

    The way to achieve additional storage available for a content server is to store the data on the external NAS.

    Refer to the section Setting Up Media external storage of Executive Guide.

  • 4.2 DOC BUG: all about the application process

    "There is an error in Oracle Application Express Application Builder User Guide version 4.2 §8.8.1 " "on the implementation of the application process":

    A process On Demand is a special type of procedure of demand that has a Point of On Demand process and executes when it is called from a process On demand page level or a browser AJAX call. On-demand processes are useful when you have logic of PL/SQL that you want to run different execution points on several pages.

    At the request of the process generally must be created on a page and not at the level of the application. On request, process created at the application level are created with an initial authorization scheme of must not be Public user. This prohibits the process invoked with users in authenticated sessions.

    As it is perfectly possible (and desirable) at the request of the application process to be invoked, [that] by authenticated users, this should probably read:

    A process On Demand is a special type of procedure of demand that has a Point of On Demand process and executes when it is called from a process On demand page level or a browser AJAX call.

    In addition, the second paragraph is a new addition to the documentation for APEX 4.2. What is the reasoning for not creating processes on request at the application level? I've used them for a few years as a way to provide reusable, application- wide (for example, the file downloads and the AJAX content) only items authenticated Apex sessions.

    Hello

    Thanks again. I added a note to the 5.0 docs.

    It is certainly very good create processes at the level of applications On Demand. However, if a process is tied to a single page, only, it is immediately obvious that the process belongs to the interface of this page. It's good from a maintenance point of view, because if you only use application-level processes, it may be more difficult to determine if the process is still in use and where it is called from.

  • How to make a visible object in the application process?

    Hello

    I have a resource that is self down and the shape of the object have a few specified additional fields (the fields are marked as required and are made in research). I want to allow (or even force) user to complete a form during the application process. How to do this? Is is possible?
    In fact, the user cannot see the form requesting a resource, it can be seen and filled by approver or administrator...

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Magnan,

    If your resources form is not available, consider the following configurations:

    -Make sure that the form is active.
    -For the definition of the record resource, ensure that you have set the form as the object Type and define the purpose of your resource in the object name field.
    -For the definition of the resource object, make sure the resource card is defined in the name of the Table field.

    That's all you need to do to have the shape of resources when the user creates a request

  • Error: Failed to create the application process: operation not permitted - deployment of ripple to Dev Alpha

    Hey people,

    I was puzzled on this the last bit of time and can't seem to find a solution. (The closest thing I could find is here: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Web-and-WebWorks-Development/Webapp-not-starting-on-device-VM... but there does appear to be a response [UPDATE: Adam Stanley mentioned that it was due to a missing Debug token, and this isn't the case for me.])

    When I try to "Package & launch" of the ripple, the project is created correctly and even installs the application on the device (is the application icon on the home screen). However, when he tries to run the application, the console of the ripple spit:

    "Error: cannot create the application process: operation not permitted".

    Any later attempt to open the application from the icon on the screen will result in an immediate fall.

    As an attempt to circumvent, I use "Package & sign" and then run the blackberry-deploy with installApp - launchApp - tool options and... it generates the same error as described above.

    I'm working on OS X, and I successfully installed the Webworks SDK as well as the undulation on Chrome Plugin. I have a project together upward with a running python web server and can view the content properly on the ripple. I have my signature correctly registered keys and I generated the file debugtoken.bar. I downloaded the debugtoken on the alpha dev successfully device and placed a copy of the debugtoken.bar file in the root folder of the SDK Webworks. The unit is in developer mode.

    Someone at-troubleshooting suggestions?

    [Edited for format (original post deleted line breaks) and also to highlight a number of things]

    So after getting back to the question, I loaded build with the SDK 1675 Webworks (1.0.4.5) published today, and I was able to go beyond the permission error that plagued me previously.

    Thanks again for the help Adam.

  • Redirection of the application process

    Hello

    When we try to redirect using the application process get below error.

    When the same process is tried to process Page it works fine.

    We use 5 APEX. Tried owa_util.reirect_url and apex_util.redirect_url.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Arun,

    Why don't you use a branch?

    If you cannot you must always use apex_util.redirect_url. Can you provide an example of code you used? As it seems that the browser actually receives the redirection, but it seems that it is not correct. Use the function "Check system" and tab Net of Firefox to have a look at the answer and after that is returned by the server.

  • How to set the value of the point of application using pl/sql in the application process

    Hi guys,.

    I want a global variable (application point) whose value will be set to start when a user logs on to the application. The value will be retrieved from the database by using a sql query. I don't exactly know the syntax to set the value of the point of application in the application process. Also, I want to know what type of enforcement process should I use to set the value of the point of application, when a user starts a session. The value of the point of application varies from one user to the user.

    Help, please.

    I use apex 4.2

    Kind regards

    Waqas

    You can use the application element as a link with his name. That is to say. your point of application is named G_MY_APPLICATION_ITEM, then you can / set of access using: G_MY_APPLICATION_ITEM.

    For example

    BEGIN

    -assign as a variable

    : G_MY_APPLICATION_ITEM: = 'LARRY ';

    --

    -use in a SQL statement

    SELECT WHATEVER_COLUMN

    IN: G_MY_APPLICATION_ITEM

    FROM MY_TABLE

    WHERE USERNAME =: APP_USER

    ;

    END;

  • To access the settings of ajax in the application process

    Hello

    I have an ajax call, submitting a parameter called cBoxKey.

       var get = new
       htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=TrackRows',0);
       get.add('cBoxKey','NOTREQUIRED');
      get.get();
    
    

    In the application process I can access the parameter 'cBoxKey' like below;

    declare
        l_checkBoxKey  varchar2(4000);  
    begin
        --
        -- Get the value of the global which will be set in JavaScript
        --
        l_checkBoxKey := wwv_flow.g_cBoxKey;
    
    

    However, this does not seem to work because when I replace

    l_checkBoxKey := wwv_flow.g_cBoxKey;
    
    

    with

    l_checkBoxKey := 'NOTREQUIRED';
    
    

    The application process is called and produces results (through the ajax call).

    In my view, that the question is how access the "cBoxKey" parameter in the application process.

    Any ideas on what could be wrong.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I check any specification of package APEX version wwv_flow, there is no variable of g_cBoxKey.

    If you have idea there?

    Change your JavaScript for

    var get = new
    htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=TrackRows',0);
    get.addParam('x01','NOTREQUIRED');
    get.get();
    

    And then access process on demand as

    l_checkBoxKey := APEX_APPLICATION.g_x01;

  • Question of the application process

    +(First OFF, we're using ApEx 4.0 through IE8) +.
    I have a report that serves as a "shopping bag" of sorts, with a "Delete" button to cancel the Articles of him. But the button 'Delete' is not to go to the page, it leaves just a blank white page. (Fortunately, the process works in the removal of the element)

    The link to the column in the report Page 11 goes back to Page 11. (I tried to change to a new Page 12, including a few branches immediately back to the 11 Page, but it does not solve the problem) The link name is APPLICATION_PROCESS = REMOVECART, clears the cache on Page 11 and sets the value of a hidden element (P11_ITEMCODE) to be referenced in the App.Process.
    The REMOVECART process is a SQL/PL block running On-Demand"that says:

    DELETE FROM INFO_CART WHERE ITEMCODE =: P11_ITEMCODE;
    UPDATE the STATUS value INFO_INDEX = 'In', ORDEREDBYUSERID = '0' where ITEMCODE =: P11_ITEMCODE;

    There is no Conditions, permissions or authentication on the process or the link in the column. Ideas, why the process is not back to the Page based on its execution?

    It appears when you run the application process of the URL which deal with the application will run and that's it. You will need to provide a code in the process of redirection request to the url of the page you want to go.

    Another option is to create a process to run the application process and make it conditional to a certain request value that you can set in your link. Look at the page 4 ("basket 2") for an example.

  • PE T610 - Perc 6i - strange state after adding additional drives

    Hello

    We have a PE T610 with a PERC 6i controller.

    X SATA 1: 2 250 GB virtual disk in a RAID-1

    X SATA 2: 3 500 GB of disk virtual in a RAID-5

    We have added 3 additional 2 TB drives to the server.  A drive has been designated as a Global Hot Spare.  Two other readers have been added to the Bay RAID-5.

    I predicted, using 500 GB each among the readers added two for Virtual Disk 2.  Then, I had planned to use the other 1.5 to among the readers as Virtual Disk 3 in a RAID-1 array.  I did it with other servers in PE in the past.

    But after that the 500 GB is used from each of the discs, I can't used the remaining unused space.  It shows the 'available RAID disk space' as 0.00 GB.

    Why the remaining space on these disks is not available for me to use?

    Thanks for any help on this.

    This was allowed on a VERY small number of controllers found in Dell servers.  Anyway, you can do that on 6 PERC.  You can replace your existing 3 drives with 2 TB drives, then create a second table (6 to) on the disks (all disks in a disk group must have the amount of space available and impossible to replace the drives with the greatest and to increase the existing RAID array size).

    Hi all

    I created a program that measure current over time.  It works well, but when I write to the spreadsheet, there are additional lines between the row of data.

    I've created a header file, which is passed into the while loop where the data entered in a table and then entered in the worksheet.  If I simply display the table, there is no additional lines, but when I open the file csv in excel, there are more lines.  I'm pretty new to labview, but everything works the way I want to (it's a simple program) apart from that.

    Best regards.

    Each of the entry points serve a different function? If Yes, then there is no way to program hide the icon; It will be either hidden (module system) or visible.

    You can use the ApplicationManager to launch your application and use some value/info you must distinguish what entry point to run.
