Avoiding rounding to nearest 0.1 GB when the disc was created?

Hi once again, last question for now.  I am running VMware Workstation 6.5.1 Windows XP host.

I can create a "virtual hard drive" for my guest in VMware, but only to the 0.1 GB closest.

Is there a way to specify a size that is most accurate?  When I tried this, my closest entrance Go 0.1 complete user interface, truncating the extra decimals.

It's too bad, because I'm trying to specify an exact size.  Specifically, I'm trying exactly match a USB key, which claims to be 4 GB but isn't really.  It is slightly less than 4 GB.  It's somewhere between 3.7 and 3.8 GB.  This mismatch between the size of the virtual disk in VMware and the size of the USB causing problems when I try to deploy later image of my virtual drive on a real USB.

I'd like to be able to specify an exact number of sectors of the disk.  In the file master *.vmdk appearing, I see that this indictment is embedded in the file.  However, there are also a few extra digits in the file I don't understand not the goal, so I'm hesitant to edit this file directly.

Y at - it a command line tool that can be used to do this?

It's a shame that the UI VMware imposes this unnecessary restriction.

Thank you!

Josh

Use vmware-vdiskmanager - you can specify the size in GB, MB, KB or sectors

  • Format of the date when the table was created

    Hi all

    Is it possible to create the table with the specific date format: as I want to create table with the format date must be in the format "mmddyyy" or no matter what specific.

    I am using oracle 11g

    Thank you

    Hello Abbas85,

    not only the dates Oracle occupy only 7 bytes, but using DATES give some benefits, like:

    -verification of the data: the system will not accept things like '44-JAN-2014' or 15 months,...

    -date arithmetic: it's so easy and convenient to be able to do things like "date2 - date1", or "date 1 + x days!"

    -l' effectiveness of the index: when stored as dates, Oracle knows that there's only one second between 27-APR-2014 23:59:59 and 28 April 2014 00:00:00, but if it is stored as strings or numbers, for example there is a bigger difference between 20140331235959 and 20140401000000 and between 20140331010203 and 20140331195959. This may mislead the optimizer...

    But in any case if for any reason any bad you persist in the idea of storing dates as numbers or strings, be sure to keep the items in the order YYYY MM DD HH24 MI SS; at least the order is respected. With the help of MMDDYYYY would be really sad!

    And on the addition of certain "quality check" If you use for example a 8 string ((aucune heure min sec)): this can be achieved with a constraint, as for example

    SQL > CREATE TABLE aajessica1986 (a_date TANK (8) CHECK (TO_DATE (a_date, 'MMDDYYYY') > DATE ' 1900-01-01'));

    Table created.

    SQL > INSERT INTO aajessica1986 VALUES ('15212014');

    INSERT INTO aajessica1986 VALUES ('15212014')

    *

    ERROR on line 1:

    ORA-01843: not one month valid

    SQL > INSERT INTO aajessica1986 VALUES ('10082014') / * (but maybe the user has waited 10 - AUG and not 08 - OCT) * /;

    1 line of creation.

  • Create, load and generate icons not visible layout when the report was created

    Hello guys,.

    Hope you can help out me. Some users are not able to create reports on BI Publisher, the data model dialog box does not automatically display and when we click on the magnifying glass to select one, and then click OK, the dialog remains in view while we reached Undo to go back to choose the layout of the report , but that part is never available.

    We tried several things as hitting SAVE as... and return to change the report but still no layout to choose.

    Is anyone aware of updates from Oracle who cites or solve this problem?

    My users use Internet Explorer 9 on Windows 7.

    OK, I discovered with this particular user.

    Java is not enabled on this computer. So we updated Java and enabled on windows.

  • Surrogate mother or business identifier when the Dimension was created?

    Hi, I use OWB and I'm confused by carrier mother identification or business identifiers? What are they and how can I find out if a certain field is an identifier of buisness or substitute?

    Business identifier is an attribute to save the value of row identifier of the source system (i.e. a primary key in the source table column).
    Identifier for substitution is a primary key attribute in the table target (or dimension).

  • Is there a way to tell when the bin was emptied last?

    Is there a way to tell when the bin was emptied last?

    Open a new Finder window. The display in the FInder menu, select Customize toolbar... Drag / move the icon to get information from the right toolbar on the left of the existing action button. Click done in the personalization Control Panel and close the window of the Finder. This Get Info button will also be useful for selections of files.

    OS X does not connect to an event to empty the trash. You can click on the trash icon in your Dock, and if the Recycle Bin has been emptied recently, you'll be watching an empty Finder window. Now, you can click on this button to obtain information about the toolbar, and the displayed change date will be when the Recycle Bin has been emptied. If you add more items to the trash, this date modifed will be when the last element has been added.

    Hello:

    As far as I know, all portable HP are assembled in China.

    The serial number will provide the year and week of manufacture...

    For the serial number, the classic format is to have the 4th, 5th and 6th characters of reference when the product was built.  The fourth character is the date of the year (Y) and the following two (WW), the week this year, it has been made.

  • How to find when the row was inserted? (timestamp)

    This has been asked several times, but is at - he new methods to find out the time when the row was inserted?

    I tried to find out using ORA_ROWSCN. But his is not accurate. It shows the update, I believe and do not show the dose if the line is inserted before long.

    Previous designers thought that it is not necessary to include the Date added and updated the columns when they were designing the database.

    This has caused a lot of problems when it comes to analyzing data and verification.

  • FDM 11.1.2.2 fdm adapter not shown when the location is created

    Hello

    FDM 11.1.2.2 fdm adapter is not displayed when the application is created in places

    I'm so when I tried to import data to test data access error

    and in the error log saying his request does not exist

    Please help me solve this problem

    Couple of solution to try

    1. recreate the import format and then reload again as sometimes get corrupted as well.

    2. place an excerpt from the sample of data to load into the Inbox and see if it load successfully.

    3. the account that you use to connect to SQL must have read access as when Bulk Insert is used, FDM creates two temporary files, which is the .tmp file referenced in your error message. The .tmp file is an insert in bulk. In order to run an insert action block in SQL, FDM uses the network account that runs the MSSQL Server service. Account goes off in the Inbox of FDM, reads the file and them slap it in the database.

  • Put the active table in respect of the development when the script was interrupted by a dialog box

    I adapted a script which browse tables in a file of Fm and asks the user if he wants the current to be reformatted or not active table

    I have not find a clean way to the table that is currently selected in the variable "tbl" or visible on the screen when the scripts sends a dialog box.

    The workaround I found is to launch a format on the table before sending the guest, in this case the table processing is apparent when the prompt arises.

    But I would like to have the visible table and avoid doing all the treatments on the table until the user has had a chance to respond to the prompt.

    I guess that there must be a method to draw the attention of the active window on an item that is selected in a variable?

    function ApplyTableFormat (doc)
    {
    If (doc.) ObjectValid())
    {
    var tbl is doc. SelectedTbl
    var tbltitle;
    var tblTextItem;
    While (tbl. ObjectValid())
    {
    tbltitle = "";
    tblTextItem = tbl. FirstPgf.GetText (Constants.FTI_String);
    for (var i = 0; i < tblTextItem.length; i ++)
    {
    tbltitle += tblTextItem [i] .sdata;
    }

    / * How my "tbl" visible in the window active doc? */
    If (Alert ("format:" + tbl.)) "Tbltitle + FirstPgf.PgfNumber + '? \nClick Cancel to abort. ((', Constants.FF_ALERT_CANCEL_DEFAULT))
    return;
    / * Insert here the table formatting code * /.

    TBL = tbl. NextTblInDoc;
    }
    }
    on the other
    {
    Alert ('no active doc', Constants.FF_ALERT_CONTINUE_WARN)
    return
    }
    }

    There is a document feature that allows to scroll the window to a location of particular text:

    doc. ScrollToText (textRange);

    You might be able to do something like this:

    doc. ScrollToText (new TextRange (tbl. TextLoc, tbl. TextLoc));

  • Private data LVOOP Parent returned when the child instance created from constant

    I created a parent class and child class.  For each of these classes, I created a member who is a builder, whose purpose is to initialize constants for each class and return the instance of the class VI.  I also have an accessor Member VI for each class that returns private data of the class (in this case, a single string for each class).

    Private class data Parent 'String' is set to "text Parent" as default.

    Private data of the class of the child 'Child String' are set to 'Child text' as a default.

    The Parent class constructor works very well.  For testing purposes, I'll be back the text of unbundling of directly the manufacturer VI, as a return of the VI accessor. The Parent constructor starts from a class constant.

    However, in the case the constructor of class as a child, if I start from a class constant, unbundling directly private data (using a feature of unbundling by name and choosing "Child String" as the element), I get the private parent data!

    If I use the Member of the class of the child VI to retrieve the text, I get the private data of the child.

    If I change the constructor from a class of control instead of a constant class, I get the private data of the child.

    This occurs only until the child class has existed as a control flag. that is, if I ungroup private data, after the class is returned by any Member VI, I get the private good child data.  Then, of course, something changes once the class 'data' has been a control at a given time.

    I'm using Labview 8.6.1, Windows XP

    I have attached a small project that demonstrates the problem that I encounter, without actually doing initialization, just read.

    Is this expected behavior?  Why does it matter if I start with a constant of class instead of a control of the class?  When you slide the block diagram in the project window, you will always have a constant.

    Although I was able to reproduce your problem in LabVIEW 8.6.1, it seems to work fine in 2009.  I could not find a CAR ID, but at this point I can only assume that the behavior was not intended but it is set in 2009.

    Let me know if you need me to find more details.
