Cannot add the VM with snapshot in the inventory

Hello

I have a virtual machine under ESX 4. Suddenly found that the virtual machine does not work - does not. And I tried the power off, but the task got hooked after 95%. Then we restarted the management of vmware ESX service and removed from the virtual machine to inventory. The virtual machine runs with a snapshot. But now, as he tried to save the virtual dos machine to inventory, it creates a virtual machine 'Unknown' and nothing is there - no disc, no file conf and properties at all.

Tried to modify the vmx and difficulty of the issue but no luck. Now, is it possible to use the drive with the snapshot in a newly created virtual machine, so that I can get all my data.

Kind regards

-Safi

To me, it looks like putting off tension did not work properly and with the deletion of the virtual machine to something inventory is the surplus.

You are able to run successfully touch -c6ac4d79.vswp (or remove the .vswp file). There still may be some process for access to the files of the virtual machine. Are there opportunities you can restart the ESX host! BTW. Do you use a lot of stand alone or part of a vCenter server environment?

Another option would be to create a new folder on the data store and to clone the virtual disk. In this way, you could also get rid of the snapshot.

vmkfstools-i - 000001.vmdk... / New-Folder /hard

Then create a new virtual maching using the Ramdisk cloned rather than create a new one.

  • Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct. vSphere CLI + ESXi 4

    Hello. I try to add vmknic with frames in my distributed virtual switch.

    I read the vSphere command-line Interface Installation and reference Guideguide:

    "vicfg-vmknic - a-i DHCP"vmk5"

    I see the error message:

    Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct.

    Vim.Host.VirtualNic.Specification.Ip

    What's wrong?

    I tried all the combinations of parameters with the same result.

    Ok! I've found a workaround.

    Since adding a vmkernel remote interface doesn't seem to work with DVS, I simply created one on a standard vSwitch and it then migrated to the DVS. And voila: the value 9000 MTU migrated intact with her! Here are the steps I followed:

    1. put the ESX host into maintenance mode - evacuate VMs manually if necessary

    2 remove the VMKernel iSCSI/NFS to the DVS interface

    3. create a standard virtual switch with no physical cards. He has no need to be a VMKernel VM Networking switch is fine. Make a note of the name you gave to the PortGroup created on the new vSwitch.

    4 using the remote control line, add the new interface vkernel specifying an appropriate jumbo MTU (9000) and the PortGroup on the standard new vSwitch. For example:

    esxcfg - vmknic.pl - Server

    If you get 3 answers, everything works. If you get failures, something has gone wrong. Go back and check that the interface is configured correctly using the command list esxcfg - vmknic.pl-.

    Enjoy!

    Hi Jeff,

    The computer manufacturing must have created a partition on the disk or provided you CD to restore the computer to the way it was when you bought it. If you have a PC clone, then probably you need to reformat your hard drive and reinstall the operating system. If you have an OEM computer (example: HP, Dell, ETC) there is most likely instructions when you turn on/off press F11 or F12 to return the computer to the computer.

    Note: Do nothing until you have all of your backup data.

  • Cannot add the header HTML - CFWebstore on CF11

    Cannot add the HTML header. ColdFusion is unable to add the header specified in the output stream. It's probably because you used to define one of the ColdFusion Cookies of Session or authentication cookie. To do this, please use configuration at the application server level.

  • vifp addserver fails with the error cannot add the user

    This my first post on this forum that I couldn't find an answer via Google search. If I do not use correct terminology or fail to provide comprehensive information, please forgive me. I'm not an expert on VMWare, just a passionate curious tech. I found VMWare to be a very exciting and easy to use product. The VMWare knowledge base is excellent and so is the community of users.

    I have install VMWare ESXi 6.0 free House on servers Dell T420 and T110 II. I recently tested vMA 5 by installing it as a virtual machine on one of the servers. I watched the tutorial Youtube how to use vifp to add servers. I have network etc. on vMA installation and it works fine. Automatic update worked. I issue the command sudo vifp addserver 192.168.250.96, I am prompted for the password. When I enter the password, I get an error error: cannot add users. I checked the log file in /var/opt/vmware/vma/vifpd.log and the more descriptive message is:

    addServer: error occurred when adding users for 192.168.250.96... roll back. An error occurred during the creation of users on 192.168.250.96

    Then I noticed that since I'm on the console vMA to run these commands, as soon as the error occurs, I see that in the lower part, under recent tasks, I see an error: General system error: weak password. The details of the error says:

    vMA Error 1.JPG

    Weak password: not quite different characters or classes.

    Now my password is strong enough. I can't post it here but I'll post a similar password:

    4518Gabdhjg #01

    It is 14 characters and has the numbers, letter uppercase, lowercase letters and special characters. I read the VMWare documentation on passwords and for me, the password seems very well. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you

    My bad. I didn't know that vMA 6.0 is available. I just downloaded and configured vMA 6.0 and the problem is solved. Sorry for disturbing everyone.

  • Cannot add the Flash disk

    Hello

    I came into work this morning to find one of our servers in a State that won't start plu.

    This virtual server is hosted on an ESXi 3.5.0 123629 server with two data warehouses.

    The following error occurred when trying to start the server.

    Please check that the path is valid and try again. Cannot open disk 'path to the file DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on. Reason: The system cannot find the specified file.

    When you browse the data store, I could see the vmdk file.

    I learned later that the DEVSQL1_1.vmdk file has been moved to the another data store.

    Unfortunately, at this time, I removed the hard drive that was pointing to the file - 000001.vmdk if I could add a new hard disk that points the moved file from DEVSQL1_1.vmdk.

    Server started the first pop, except that the data stored on the disk problem are old.

    At this point, I stop the server and moved the DEVSQL1_1.vmdk file to its original location. Then, I removed the disc newly added and tried to add a hard drive pointing to the original DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk. When you do this I get the error "object reference is not set to an instance of an object" and I am unable to go further.

    When open the Snapshot Manager, I am unable to see relating to this disk snapshots.

    Anyone know how I can join the DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk disc in order to start the server and also have access to current data?

    Thank you very much

    Glen

    Glen - I don't think we should use this DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk snapshot

    I have no evidence that it has been used in the history of this virtual machine.
    It does not fit to the size of its parent disk.

    Do you remember if DEVSQL1.vmdk has been developed in the history of this virtual machine?

    Edit the vmx and change

    scsi0:0. FileName = 'DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk ".
    TO
    scsi0:0. FileName = "DEVSQL1.vmdk".

    It was also the State used when the machine virtual last started successfully.

    Honestly, I was a little surprised when you found this DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk

    You have an idea about this?

    After editing the vmx file the VM must start - when starting carefully inspect the condition = if it is out of date turn off directly.

    I doubt you'll see an out-of-date status - but if the first disk is expired I must expand the snapshot - that would be a bit strange

  • Cannot add the NFS share to store Cluster data

    Hello

    I have this scenario:

    Server - FREENAS with NFS share

    -cluster with 2 guests

    I added the NFS datastore successfully to each host in the cluster. The problem is when I try to add the NFS Datastore for the Cluster data store, I get the error: a specified poarameter was not correct. datastore.info.type.

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Datastore1 and datastore2 data warehouses are data warehouses local? If so, you must remove these storages of data added before the NFS datatore to the cluster, first cause a cluster cannot be VMFS and NFS on the same cluster and second cause without making sense have warehouses of local data within a cluster data store.

  • cannot add the new hard drive more than 2 TB on vsphere upgrade 5

    can someone give me a clue? I can't add new greater than 2 TB drive to my vm on my upgraded vsphere 5.0. My data store is 6 TB and already read by vsphere... I create new virtual machine and add the new drive, but it limits again just 2 TB when I change 4 TB, the error message will appear. I recently added my datastore LUN with VMFS5 version. is there a any mistake I made? Please help me this problem is so frustrating me... i need to create new disk 6 TB to my new file server

    Hello.

    You will need to use a RDM in physical Compatibility Mode to achieve. As weinstein5 said, a VMDK cannot be greater than 2-to-512bytes. You can use the OS to spread over several 2 TB-512bytes VMDK, if that's what you really want.

    Good luck!

  • Cannot add the new printer port for Central Output Server 5.7 under Windows Server 2012

    I am my output of an old Windows box to a new server migration and have problems with the new ports.  I have 6 installed instances and the last looks OK, but all the others get errors when all output is sent to them, even a Windows Test print. I have them all the same thing, with the format \\.\pipe\jetform\server5 configuration port

    When I installed the software, I installed all 6 instances then went through and added 6 local printer ports - it seemed to configure them OK this first time.

    My test was then on the 6th and last instance and went well.

    When I wanted to test the other forums, I found all simply erroneous jobs on the queue for the printer.

    If I have one of these printers connected to the 6th port, it worked fine.

    I deleted one of the ports that did not work and I tried to re-add. Then I got the message "the system cannot find the file specified."

    I tried to add the port via the registry - he added, but would not yet print.

    Then I noticed in the output server control center, when I tried to stop Central and start one of them, I got the error "unable to connect to the channel named"\\.\pipe\jetform\server5.ctr"

    I use a domain account that is configured to run Adobe services, he is a Director of field with all required fees

    I modified the local security policy to enable users to add printer drivers.

    And I have now run out of ideas! Someone at - it a?

    Thank you

    This was traced to one of still having ini files a record of the proceedings of last name installed (i.e. SERVER6).

    What should I do now?

    You are welcome. Are you speaking of the only rule address book? Depending on the type of legitimate mail you get, some like it and some do not.

    Start with the only rule of AddressBook and you receive a message that you want people not in your address book (E-mail from companies, bills, your ISP, etc), you can add them to the rule.

    Tools | Message rules | Mail | New.

    Box 1 - Where the From line contains people {check it out}

    Box 2 - Check: delete it & stop processing more rules if you want messages not in the address book to go to deleted items, or you can create a spam folder and direct them here.

    OK your way out of the new rule.

    Now, only the addresses that you entered will be uploaded to your Inbox. You won't see other emails.
