• Installation of Windows 2008 R2 on ESXi 5.0

  Hi all

  I worked with ESXi 4 & 5 running Windows 2003 OS invited without problems.  Just tried to install Windows 2008 R2 x 64 and face an interesting difference.  When installing windows 2003 I have to specify the details of the Virtual Machine, specifically the amount of disk space I want to be available to host everything.  Then start the virtual machine, newly created from the windows installation disk appropriate.  I then get prompt with the "blue" screen allowing me to partition the space according to the BONE and once installation is complete I can then go through the operating system and partition and format the remaining space, as I hear it.  Doing so to a Windows 2008 R2 x 64 installation disk and I don't you this possibility so the BONE ends by using all the space allocated to the host of comments.

  I guess I'm missing something blindingly obvious, but have not been able to track down any relevant information to this day.

  Yes, you really lack the partitioning part.

  This is after selecting custom selection (advanced option) > select the drive you want to install windows > click drive options and partition your drive.

• Set up a planning for backup windows on windows server 2008, but it can get backup

  I use a windows 2008 R2 server.  I implemented a backup on this server schedule to back up files to a remote shared folder on our server which performs backups of our entire company.  I can get through the Scheduling Assistant without backup problems and everything seems correct, but when the time comes to start the backup it won't proceed with the backup.  Once past the backup start time and then it will tell me the next backup will be tomorrow at the same time.  He never tells me the backup failed, either that he has in the past, it's like she's not even read the new scheduled backup and I am all of these possible solutions.

• Windows 2008 R2 VM disk system increased substantially after moving from VM to ESXi host 5.1 to 5.5 ESXi host using vCenter Converter Standalone

  Hello:

  I moved a Windows 2008 R2 VM from a 5.1 ESXi host to an ESXi host 5.5 using vCenter Converter Standalone.  The c: / drive system passed largely to where I now have to extend the volume.  Is this normal/expected behavior?  Perhaps the conversion/move creates temporary files I can delete?

  Thanks much for the ideas.

  This is not the expected behavior.

  Size of the disk is defined during the conversion and which will not increase by its own during conversion.

  Now, you need to V2V, if you want to reduce the volume.

  Hello

  1 - if you put the DVD in the ESXi host - then

  

  Then make sure that the first initialization of vm bios device is cd rom

  2 - If you log into the esx from your pc/laptop and that you have mounted the DVD in your laptop / pc, see below

  

  You can point to a pc/lap dvd player you or you can use the ISO image in pc Tower

• RMAN backup Linux drivers shared on windows 2008 Server.

  Edited by: 883687 August 15, 2012 23:08

  Hello;

  It should be possible. The ORA-27040 is

  "O/S-Error: (OS 3) The system cannot find the path specified."
  

  and the second error ORA-27040 seems to be an effect of the first.

   File create error, unable to create file
  

  Could be a permissions problem, so if you can mount the disk space windows, but cannot write to it (yet)

  There is a note of support Oracle that covers this:

  ORA-19504 ORA-27040 during Rman backup in a Directory Windows mounted under Linux [464267.1 ID]

  Which confirms, in my view, the answer is Yes.

  Further that:

  RMAN fail with ORA-19504 ORA-27040 when backup remote server linux [726858.1 ID] Windows Mount Volume

• Re: Toshiba Store Alu 3.5 "1 TB HARD drive works only with Windows 2008 64-bit

  Just bought this as a backup device for Small Business Server 2008 running on Windows 2008 64-bit. However it does not? Are there drivers anywhere for this or it is simply not supported and I need to buy an alternative solution?

  Plugged into my laptop Windows 7 64 bit and no problems.

  Someone else had the same problem?

  Hello

  Unfortunately, there is no other software by download.
  I checked the driver page Toshiba in the Options area but didn't find anything

  AFAIK it of a plug & play HARD drive if you n t need any software to recognize the HARD drive

  There may be a password.
  Try this:
  Connect your HARD drive to the computer when the HARD drive is working
  Select the CD drive with your browser (password)
  Run the ONSPCLCK.exe
  Select 'Options '.
  Select "Disable security password"
  Enter your current password
  Unplug the HARD drive
  connect the HARD drive

  Now, it will work, but with no password protection. Perhaps it would work

• Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter registry problem

  Hi all:

  A few months ago, I needed to make a full upward from my server and after that almost all still works fine besides that some functions including IE.

  The question I had is with 298 ordinal which is not found in the library iertudil.dll dynamics.

  I can confirm that the iertudil.dll file exists under System32 and tried to replace it with the original installation of the DVD where it was damaged but not yet lucky. I know that I have no malware or viruses that I ran full scans and this issue has happened after the back upward.

  So at this point, I'm sure that the problem is related with the registry key bad that was left when I did the back upward by up to 100%. I would like to make a correction of the registry software and I actually found a good which is accredited by Microsoft, but the problem is I managed to install the correction of the registry software, but if I try to run it, it won't work and it appears that the message '298 ordinal. "that cannot be found in the dynamic link library iertudil.dll

  I'm a bit on a dead end here because I can't run the program to try to repair the registry and looks like the only option is to go into the registry and try to fix it manually. Only problem is that I don't know where to find them and what would be the key to get rid of all bad registry entries.

  Given that I'm avoiding at all costs a repair of windows or pure full install as that would make me a lot of time down on my server, I want to ask if there is no genius out there who could point me where to find this iertudil on the register and the values should be there so I can modify it. Of course, I'll do a registry backup before committing any changes. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate that after googling for hours I can't find all the instructions for a manual registry fix. I'm on a Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter X 64 bit system

  Thanks in advance.
