can I extract the files from the _flat.vmdk file

We have suffered a data corruption on a LUN, and I find myself with only a file Server1_1 - flat 200GB hard. No vmx or any other config file. Can I remove all the data from this flat file?

Thanks, Mike

I would like to try to recreate the descriptor VMDK file.  If this works, you should be able to join any virtual computer.  However if you lost files, parts of this file may be corrupted.  You won't know until you try to attach to a virtual machine.

Good luck

  • How can I extract the files of calendar?

    Thank you for the review of this post.  I appreciate any help you can provide.

    I recently bought a new win 7.  My tech copied all my old data from the previous machine to a single folder on my new machine.

    I have a few Palm data... But it has not imported the TX model will not be installed on my Win 7 machine, so I have to achieve this through Palm Desktop.  (I have read that could be caused by the fact that I went to version 6 of the palm software and tried to import).

    Quite simply, here's my problem: I just want to really get my calendar information.  I'll probably use a program different schedule in the near future.

    How can I extract the data from the calendar since raw files?  (Calendar.dat, etc.) ???

    I have TO import or somehow go through the Palm software, or is it possible outside of Palm?

    I THINK that this cannot be something too difficult, but I am so stuck and missing an appointment every day.

    I am very grateful for your help.

    With the version of the data files you have, you will need to install Palm Desktop 4.1.4e or 4.2. You will need to uninstall Palm Desktop 6.2, if that's what you have installed currently. With the .dat extension files are not compatible with PD 6.2.

    Another thing to consider is the Win7 version you have installed. If you have the 64-bit version, you will only be able to sync wireless using bluetooth, infrared, or wi - fi. On your PC, go to the computer icon and right-click. Look at the page and see if it says 64 bit any where. If you have the 32-bit version, you can synchronize via USB cable method, but you must ensure that you have the correct version of installed PD.

    In PD .dat files, you will need to go to the folder of user name on the drive of the program and paste the files in the appropriate subfolder. Make sure that the PD is closed. Go to c-program files-palm and find the folder user of PD. Once you find the file, search for the subfolders of this folder for address (this is the contacts folder), calendar (calendar), memos, and tasks. Paste the address.xxx files in the folder of the address, the file datebook.xxx in the folder of the agenda, etc.. Once the files in the respective locations, open PD and see if the data is there. If this is the case, you can then set the synchronization according to your version of Win7, either wireless or USB.

    Hi all

    How can I extract the frequency of the FFT function in labview?  Thanks in advance

    Concerning

    If you have the f0 and df, you can find your frequency as you would find the time with a waveform based on t0 and dt.  You just need the index of the data point in that you want to get the frequency.  The frequency is then f0 + x * FD, where x is the index of the data point you are interested in.

  • How can I extract the files in the subfolders in the main folder quickly?

    Hello!
    I have a problem with the files.
    I have a DVD with one main folder that contains 26 subfolders. Each subfolder contains 25 numbered documents up to 025 001.
    I need all these documents of all 26 cases out of these records and be together in the main folder.
    I now do it manually, by copy paste all 25 docs out of each subfolder in the main folder, but I think that there must be a more efficient way.
    As much as I do for 50 DVD...
    I hope someone can help me with this!
    Thank you!

    Here is the method I would use, because I'm super nerd:

    1 - Open the main top-level folder.
    2. in the search box, type a single asterisk (*) which will cause all files that point downwards (in subfolders) is displayed in the results of research, regardless of the folder they are in.
    3. drag all files in search results in their new home.
    You can also filter by file type.  To copy only word documents, simply type .doc in the search box.

  • I can't extract the zipped files, all I get is empty folders

    Hello

    I use Windows 7.  I have not downloaded another file compression/extraction software, I use the built-in software.  If I try and open the zipped files by choosing the option "extract files" I wonder where I would like to save the extracted files.  I said where I want them to go, everything seems to be fine, I told me that the files are checked and and a new folder is created.  When I opened this case, however, I like that it is empty.
    Is - this from there anyway I can access the decompression software to see if something is wrong or there at - it an option to re - install?
    I am reluctant to introduce the third-party software zip that I use my laptop for my PhD thesis and I don't want to put in place something that will cause problems and send three years of work down the drain.
    Thank you

     

    Hello

    I suggest you to do the same steps that Marilyn has suggested, just with the files themselves. In addition, instead of click to open files from Windows Explorer, choose any program is indicated for each file. For example, choose Microsoft Word .doc file. Etc.

  • How can I extract an image from a .jpg file?

    Attached is a. JPG, I want to change.  I have a lot of drawing like this we would like to make a catalog.  I want to make all the doors of the thesis of the same image with transparent square bottom size.  I understand how to remove the bottom however when I try to adjust the size of my image it always adjusts my canvas size.  What I tried to do, is to have a layer of transparent background with the door image on a separate layer, but I'm not having any luck.  I'm new to PS, so my knowledge is limited.  Any help would be appreciated.  I use the extended version of CS4.

    610.jpg

    All your canvas sizes will have a consistent size? Door images too? Is this number? You can try this:

    1 make the active layer (Layer 1 instead of background) image

    2. Select the entire document outside the shape of the door (using the magic wand + add the number with lasso)

    3 remove the part of the image: it's transparent.

    4. go in picture, trim, all transparent pixels, what you're left with now is the part of the door of the image.

    5. go to the size of the image and put the dimensions in pixels of the door (hopfully not upsampling)

    6. flatten image

    7 go to the canvas size, set the size you want (as long as it is greater than the door) and a ratio of 1: 1 that you should now have a square bottom.

    I know that sounds like a lot of steps, but this can be automated into action. I do that all the time with photos of products that need to adapt to a standard window. Just another way to go, hope this helps...
