Can not power on VM after restore acronis backup using VMWare Converter

I've restored a VM for VSPhere 5.1 using acronis backup VMWare Converter. The conversion completed successfully, but the virtual machine does not start and I get the following error message. Any guidance is appreciated

An error was received from the ESX host turning on VM Testdns.

Unable to start the virtual machine.

Power DevicePowerOn module has failed.

Unable to create the virtual SCSI device for scsi0:0, ' / vmfs/volumes/deb7682b-d932a578/DNS Test/Testdns/Testdns.vmdk'

Could not open scsi0:0 disc: disc not supported or not valid type 7. Ensure that the disk has been imported.

Indeed IT loks like a problem with the used file format (twoGbMaxExtentSparse) hard which is no more supported with ESXi. Your options are either convert virtual disks using the command-line vmkfstools on the ESXi host (in this case, you must load the VMkernel multiextent module) or by downloading the hard files and convert them using vmware-vdiskmanager command-line utility. Another option is to download the virtual machine on a local system, and then use VMware Converter to convert to the ESXi host.

  • Can not power on vm after the deletion of snapshots

    Hello, I'm afraid that I watered a virtual machine. It's on ESXi 4.1. I deleted all snapshots and now I can not power on a virtual machine. Power on the selection is grayed out.

    Is there a way to get back on this virtual machine? I still see the 10G vmdk file in the data store if it matters.

    TIA

    How big are the snapshots? Maybe the process is still ongoing! Generally remove snapshots works without problems if you run lack of disk space, so I think you need to just be patient.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones can not sync with Outlook after the upgrade to AT & T 4.5

    After the upgrade to AT & T 4.5, everything seems to work OK except synchronization.  Everyone I have a problem and you know the solution?

    Thank you

    Lee

    AT & T recommends only 4.6 because they have no brand yet their own 4.7. Only difference 4.7 is the loader program whish has been updated and supports the 83xx series perfectly well... regardless of which operator, and Yes, she fully supports the device software 4.5.

    I saw a help tip in situations like this before that might be useful, however need you to installed 4.7 as this option is available in this version. IF you do not already have a backup, do one now.

    Start-run-cmd

    type: cd c:\program files Research in motion\apploader

    then type: /resettofactory loader.exe

    After that, make sure that DTM is closed, delete the intellisync folder new, open DTM, synchronization of the configuration and try to synchronize again.

    Try to do the sync BEFORE and AFTER restoring your backup

  • Can not connect to vcenter after reboot

    Hello VMware,

    I can not connect to vcenter after reboot with the error «Failed to connect to the Vmware research service»

    Vcenter_1.PNG

    I tried to follow below doc but no help.

    http://www.myvmwareblog.com/2012/11/28/lookupservicesdk-SSL-certificate-verification-failed/

    I tried to play with the Vcenter screen underneath, but no luck.

    Vcenter_2.PNG

    To resolve this problem, replace the VCSA IP with hostname VCSA in the search service configuration file, ls_url.txt file.

    To replace the VCSA IP address with the host VCSA name in the ls_url.txt file:

    1. Connect to the VCSA via ssh under the root user
    2. Go to the directory/etc/vmware-sso using the command:

      CD/etc/vmware-sso

    3. Make a backup copy of the file ls_url.txt using the command:

      CP ls_url.txt ls_url.txt.bak

    4. Open the file ls_url.txt using a text editor
    5. Replace the VCSA IP address with the host name of the VCSA. For example:

      https:// Lookupservice/XXXXXXXXXX/sdk

      Where XXXXXX is the host name of the VCSA.

      Note: It is usually the host name of the domain the VCSA FULL name. Make sure it matches the common name (CN) in the certificate name.

    6. Restart the VCSA services by running the command:

      restart the /etc/init.d/VMware-vpxd
      restart the /etc/init.d/VMware-SSO
      restart the /etc/init.d/VMware-InventoryService

      Or

      Restart the VCSA.

    Alternatively, you can use this workaround to regenerate the certificates for the vCenter Server Appliance.To to regenerate the certificates for the vCenter Server Appliance:

    1. Temporarily change the IP address of the vCenter Server Appliance to a different IP address, not used

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not install new applications after upgrade to version 5

    Since I downloaded something like "Blackberry OS version 5" on the web and updated my device using the Desktop Manager, I was able to download new applications.

    I managed to get the BBM on - the phone would have been useless if not - but no more applications will be downloaded.

    Everything seems to work, if I download via the web, or use the Desktop Manager to install applications, there are no mistakes and he said it worked - but there is no icon of the application in a folder.

    For example, BB app world: says Office Manager installed, but it is not accessible, because there is no icon anywhere.

    My carrier say they can not me more help because it is a question of device.

    I got "view all", as well as the icons are certainly not hidden.

    I've tried dozens of times battery pull.

    I tried a backup using Desktop Manager, then factory reset the device, and then restored - several times.

    I tried to uninstall applications through Desktop Manager and install them again.

    I don't understand what the settings are meant to be changed after I do a factory reset and restore from a backup.

  • I can not install Lightroom 6 after a problem with the pc and upgrade to Windows 10. "Errors occurred on your installation.

    Hello

    I am a user of Lightroom 4 since it came out and it worked fine.

    My system is based on a motherboard Asus Maximus III, the Intel Core i7 875K 2.93 GHz processor, card EVGA Geforce GTX 960 Graphics, Corsair Vengeance 8 GB of RAM.

    I used to have Windows 7 Home Eng 64 bit on it.

    After installing Lightroom 6 everything is fine again, but then the evil came:

    There was a problem with the pc, so I had to use the restore before installing Lightroom 6 point, bringing back me to Lightroom 4

    The problem is that somehow my internetbrowsers stopped working one by one. A virus? Norton was running, so it shouldn't.

    The restoration of an early version did not help the problem

    I needed the PC for work so I installed the free update for Windows 10

    Now, I can not install my Lightroom 6 more: it keeps giving me the following box:

  • Can not power on virtual machines "cannot access the file because it is locked.

    Virtual machines have been working well - then the storage system is down.  After the storage system returns upwards that I can't turn on a number of virtual machines.  Get this error when I try to turn it on:

    Cannot power on vmname on esxhostname.xxxxx.com. Unable to access file < unspecified file name > because it is locked
    error

    1. To check the locks on the Service Console on non ESXi servers, run the command:

      lsof | grep

      COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE SIZE NŒUD NOM_PERIPHERIQUE
      71fd60b6-3631 root 4r REG 0.9 10737418240 23533

      Note: If there is no Console of Service process the locking file, you should receive no printed output. If you receive results, however, file a support request to identify the process and to determine the causes.  If it is a third-party process, however, contact the appropriate provider to determine the cause before you kill the process ID, because it can happen again in the future.

      Stop the process and the lock ID using the kill command. In the example above, the process ID is 3631:

      kill the 3631

      After the termination of the process, you can try to turn on the virtual machine or access the file resource.

    2. To check if the virtual machine is always a world ID assigned, run these commands on all ESX/ESXi hosts:

      CD/tmp
      VM-support - x

      Available to debug worlds:
      WID =

      On the ESX/ESXi host where the virtual machine still works, kill the VM, which releases the lock on the file. To kill the virtual machine, run the command:

      VM-support - X

      Where the is the ID of the world of the virtual machine with the locked file.

      Note: this command takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Answer No to "can I include a screenshot of the virtual machine", and answer Yes to all subsequent questions.

      After the termination of the process, you can turn on the virtual machine or access the file resource.

    Deleting the file .lck (NFS only)

    The virtual machine files can be locked via NFS storage. You can identify this as reported by .lck files. # (where # is the ID of the world that holds the lock file) at the end of the file name. It is a NFS file lock and appears only when you use the ls command as it is the hidden file.
    Beware: they can be removed safely only if the virtual machine is not running.

    Note: VMFS volumes have no .lck files. The locking mechanism for VMFS volumes is managed within VMFS metadata on the volume.

    You must kill the process that is locked, if it is not the case, you probably need to restart the VMware host.
    I tell you from experience most likely end up rebooting it.
