Backup VM with VBLOCK

I'm new to vBlock but have a decent understanding of vSphere and pretty much thru ver4.1 (some in ver 5).  Here's my question:

I'm with a company that uses vBlock and ESXi4 stand-alone servers.  No vCenter.   Inrteresting Setup.    They are not instant, and they do not have the VM backups.

Now, I'm still green behind the ears to this company, so I don't think I can say much of their virtual infrastructure and virtual policies, but whenever they need to make changes to their system (even if they are virtual machines), they either do or build a new server and test it on the new server.   In regards to the side of the virtual machine, they told me that they are not instant is because their SAN (Fibre Channel of EMC) vBlock can VM backups.  That's why even serves as to why they have no VM used cover backup/restore applications.   Fortunately, they have never had a need to post this because they have never had to restore a virtual machine.

I am skeptical.   From what I've read, vBlock and SAN interface device provides true VM backups.   If I'm not mistaken VBlock simply integrates 3 (vSphere, Cisco and EMC SAN routing).   I don't know that the SAN has the standard ability to backup files (IE.  The virtual computer files) but to be able to completely restore a computer virtual... I don't think so.  And, although it is possible to recreate a virtual machine files... it will take time to do so and if the configuration remains intact or not is questionable, in my opinion.   In any case, I wanted to see if someone knew more VBLOCK and could you tell me if what I said is true.    If this isn't the case, I'll have to chime so that they can take the appropriate decisions.

A Vblock (Yes, that's how VCE spells it) is sold with Enterprise more than license for the hosts, they are required to be able to include Nexus 1000v and PowerPath VE, with vCenter Standard edition (which allows unlimited guests).

  • Backup failed with error 18: the backup drive is not found

    Hello

    My guard time capsule saying "Backup failed" for a few days and I cannot access the old backup files either (when I enter my time machine it shows 'today', which is kind of scary, although I know that my old files is still there). I tried many ways to trouble shoot this problem, but none of this has worked. In my opinion, it's more a network problem and I made sure I connect Wi - Fi even my time capsule created.

    So far I have tried:

    -Delete the files from my internet (com.apple.airport.preferences.plist; preferences.plist and NetworkInterfaces.plist, etc.) and restart my mac

    -Remove TimeMachine.plist and restart my mac

    -Hard reset of my time capsule. Went through all configurations with success but then still backup missed (I hear the running time capsule when it is by train).

    I share this time capsule with my wife and she has no problem with that.

    I can only think of a possible alternation I did which could cause this problem.

    Because of unstable WiFi problem, I had deleted

    com Apple.Airport.Preferences.plist

    com.Apple.Network.identification.plist

    NetworkInterfaces.plist

    Preferences.plist

    or other files and reboot my mac * before * I had this problem with time capsule.

    However, this is not the first time I do it, and it wasn't a problem before...

    This could be the reason? If so, how to restore the network settings?

    Please help me with this problem. Really appreciate!

    Also give me some screenshots of the TC installing airport utility.

    Yes, you can as long as you understand that you will lose everything that is currently on the phone.

    (1) settings > General > reset > erase content and settings

    That will make the iPhone as new.  Then, during the installation process it again once will ask you if you want to restore from an existing backup.  You can then restore the scheduled backup.

    Thank you.

    HI -.

    We use Veritas for the backup device. You will need to contact your representative of Veritas for license information - it is not provided by Cisco. Since the unit running SQL (or MSDE 2000), you will need SQL Veritas agent to back up OPEN files. We do not use dirt, but only for the backup device before performing the upgrades. And we also to break the mirror set beforehand. http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/customer/products/SW/voicesw/ps2237/products_maintenance_guide_chapter09186a0080443809.html#wp1073824

    Hi James,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    The error would have occurred if the services associated with Windows backup may have been disabled, you can try to restart the service, follow the steps below:

    1. click on start.

    2 type Services in the start search.

    3. in the search for Windows Services of shadow copy Volume in the list.

    4. right click on the Service.

    5. click on properties.

    6. Select the Startup Type to manual.

    7. click on OK.

    8. repeat the same for the service Windows backup.

    If the problem persists, then I suggest you run the chkdsk command, which fix chkdsk errors, follow these steps:

    i. Click Start.

    II. type cmd in the start search box.

    III. right-click on cmd.exe list programs and then select the run as Administrator option.

    IV. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    v. in the command prompt window, type the following command and press enter Chkdsk /R

    VI. o press when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.

    VII. close all applications and restart the computer.

    Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost

    When you restart, Windows checks the drive for errors, and then Windows starts. Now run the disk check in command prompt, follow the steps below:

    Now, when you try to perform the backup, I recommend that you can try to disable the temporary security on the computer software and perform a backup, be sure to activate security in the computer software.

    Disable the antivirus software:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

     

    If you need further assistance on this topic, let know us and we will be happy to help you.

    I ran several backups on my external hard drive without problem, but I am now constantly a backup failure with an error code of 0x8078012D.

    How can I fix?

    Hi Helen,

  • Backup fails with Invalid RECID error

    Backup Fails with Invalid RECID Error: Solution 2
    
    This solution is more difficult than solution 1:
    
    To create the control file with SQL*Plus:
    
       1. Connect to the target database with SQL*Plus. For example, enter:
    
          % sqlplus 'SYS/oracle@trgt AS SYSDBA'
    
       2. Mount the database if it is not already mounted:
    
          SQL> ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
    
       3. Back up the control file to a trace file:
    
          SQL> ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;
    
       4. Edit the trace file as necessary. The relevant section of the trace file looks something like the following:
    
          # The following commands will create a new control file and use it
          # to open the database.
          # Data used by the recovery manager will be lost. Additional logs may
          # be required for media recovery of offline data files. Use this
          # only if the current version of all online logs are available.

          ALTER TABLESPACE TEMP ADD TEMPFILE '/oracle/oradata/trgt/temp01.dbf' REUSE;
          # End of tempfile additions.
    
       5. Shut down the database:
    
          SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
    
       6. Execute the script to create the control file, recover (if necessary), archive the logs, and open the database:
    
          STARTUP NOMOUNT
          CREATE CONTROLFILE ...;
          EXECUTE ...;
          RECOVER DATABASE
          ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT;
          ALTER DATABASE OPEN ...;
    Caution:
          If you do not open with the RESETLOGS option,
     then two copies of an archived redo log for a given log sequence number may
     exist--even though these two copies have completely different contents.
     For example, one log may have been created on the original host and the other on the new host.
     If you accidentally confuse the logs during a media recovery,
     then the database will be corrupted but Oracle and RMAN cannot detect the problem.

    How to open the database without resetlogs?

    This will not help you. You must open the database in resetlogs mode in order to avoid such a scenario. You can open the database in mode restelogs by type
    SQL > alter database open restelogs;
    Instead, he will lose the present trancation in logs online.

    This past weekend, I noticed that my Messages app acted strangely on my iPhone 6. Accordingly, I turned and turn it on again and noticed that all of my posts have disappeared. I then did a hard reset and turned on - still no messages.

    I have my settings to keep my messages forever, what really saddened me to see all of my messages disappeared. In any case, I'm about to restore my backup iPhone on a new phone (6 s). Luckily, I backed up my phone the week last before my messages disappearing.

    I understand that when I restore a backup, everything that happened on my phone since will not appear. However, I have also the Messages on my MacBook Air app, when kept all my messages before and after the mysterious disappearance on my phone. Once I have perform this restore, I was wondering if it is possible to synchronize in any post-restore on my laptop to my phone messages.

    Thank you!

    Hi masizh,

    Congratulations on your new iPhone 6 s! I understand that you want to synchronize the restoration of post messages on your Mac Messages app to your iPhone 6 s. If these are the iMessages, your new device needs to load the entire conversation once you send or receive an iMessage from the recipient. SMS messages may not work in the same way, however, you can contact your operator for support with text messages.

    To continue to have your Mac with your iPhone SMS sync, don't forget to implement continuity with your new device.

    If you have an iPhone, the SMS that you send and receive on your iPhone may appear on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch as well. You can then continue the conversation from any device is closer to you.

    Set up SMS and MMS messaging

    Use this feature with any Mac, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that satisfies the requirements of continuity system. Make sure that your devices are configured as follows:

    • Each device is connected to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
    • On iPhone, go to settings > Messages > Send and receive. Make sure the Apple ID at the top of the screen is the same Apple ID you use for iMessage on other devices. Add a check to your address, phone number, so that you can be reached by both iMessage. Do the same on your iPad or iPod touch.
    • On iPhone, go to settings > Messages > transfer, text messages, then choose which devices to send and receive text messages from the iPhone. A verification code and then on each device. Enter this code on your iPhone.
    • On Mac, open Messages, and then choose message > Preferences. Click accounts, and then select your account from iMessage. Make sure the Apple ID shown here is the same Apple ID you use on other devices. Add a control to your phone number and email address.

    Use the SMS and MMS messaging

    To use this feature, simply start conversations as usual in the Messages application on any of your devices. Alternatively, you can start a conversation by clicking a phone number in Safari, Contacts, calendar, or other applications detecting phone numbers. All your incoming and outgoing messages on all your devices.

    Please use the Apple Support communities to post your question. Enjoy your new iPhone!

  • Archive a backup iOS with iTunes on a PC

    I want to check my back upwards into iTunes so that I can try the beta of iOS 10. When I go into Preferences > devices > backup device I can point to back up that I want to archive, but when I use CTRL + 'click' I do not get the submenu to archive. I know that's the way I've archived on my mac mini, but since changing to a PC using Windows 10 I can't seem to find a way to archive. Is there another way or something because I don't want the beta iOS without it.

    Hi Philogic,

    I understand that you want to archive your backup iOS, but you don't see the context menu for it. I know it's important to be able to have a copy of security of your backups, so I'm happy to provide some clarification for this.

    You're definitely on the right track with your steps so far. Since you are using Windows, however, instead of ctrl + click, you just right click of the backup. You will find the following menu is what you are used to.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support, cheers!
