• Delete a snapshot in ESXi 5 when data store is almost full

  I'm very skiddish on use or deletion of snapshots after a disaster, I had with them last year. So, I thought I would get your recommendation before you continue.

  I have a virtual machine running on the host with about 700 GB of total space on the data store. The virtual machine uses about 500GB and there is only a snapshot of the virtual machine. The virtual machine uses a disc thin provisioned. I received a warning that there is insufficient data on the space store and there are only about 120 GB left. Is it safe to remove the snapshot? Should we double the size of the virtual machine to "consolidate? The last time I did it with multiple snapshots and a lot less space, it's disaster.

  Edit: Here's what's on the data store (for this virtual machine). There is an another VM on the same data store which shows it takes 40 GB of space.

  

  Here's what it says on the storage to Apollo (the virtual computer name) under summary in vSphere:

  

  The basic disk can only 'baloon' upward only by the amount of data in the snapshot, which is 214 GB function provided screenshot and to be on the safe side, you have to assume that he will do. If you need to at least 214 (I'd Go 220) free on the data store for a safe removal-snapshot operation.

  Worse: these 214 GBs are given new, added after the creation of the snap. You the kickoff of the removal process. Basic disk to grow per GB 214. Currently, it consumes 355 GB so it will grow up to 569GB. Only one time all the data of the snap is committed to basic disk, the snapshot will be deleted. This is why you need some 220 GB free and available on the data store to start the removal process.

  Instant deletion on an engine out of VM might help a little, but looks like not as much as you want.

  If you shut down the virtual, pagefile will be deleted which will free up to 4 GB.

  Also if you delete a wink on the virtual machine performance, actually another cliché will be created to store the changes that VM is done during the delete operation. According to the rate of change of data within your VM and the time required for the delete operation, it will take little extra space on the data store as well. This need for extra space can be avoided by removing the snap while the VM is turned off.

  However, in your case the virtual computer power on off won't help

  Bottomline - if you can, find a way to get 220 + GB of free space on your data store before you delete the snapshot. Otherwise, the next option is VM migration to a different data store with storage vMotion (without interruption) and deletion of snapshots there (once again, potentially without interruption). A last - cloning in another data store that involves downtime.

  And you cannot clone to USB.

• Performance of copy of local data store

  Hello

  I'm trying to copy the vmdk to a data store (first physical disk) to another store of data (second disk on the same machine) with vSphere Clinet Datastore browser. Performance is horrible: 3000 kbit/s. This behavior is normal? I'm getting much better speed while copying the file to the browser to store data http through LAN to my laptop. Read/write in the management of the virtual computer is also correct.

  Virtual machines are all stop, ESXi is in maintenance mode. The server is an HP Proliant ML150 G6.

  Thank you

• ESXI & HP VSA data store size

  Is - well configured?

  I have 2 hosts HP DL360P VMware 5.5 with 2 500 GB hard drives with hardware raid 1. iSCSI data store configured with 690 GB of disk space in vSphere. 2 HP VSA is appearing 350GB of storage available. The HP CMC shows 690 GB of available disk space. When I install the volume, RAID10, and available disk space as thick, it shows a maximum of 347GB - because of RAID10 storage space.

  My concern is the gap in the amount of available storage space depending on whether display you the data in vSphere (690 GB datastore) store and the CMC showing only 347 GB of usable storage space. So in vSphere it will probably lead someone to believe that there are more storage available there are currently available on the volume.

  Is something wrong with that or should it?

  Mystery solved, someone has decreased the size of the volume in the CMC, which explains the difference in size.

• VMs migration from one to another on ESXi 5.1 data store (free license)

  I'm under ESXi in my lab (for the Cisco voice servers and a few Windows virtual machines). Virtual machines are on a datastore iSCSI hosted by a Netgear ReadyNAS Pro Business. Due to major problems with iSCSI on the ReadyNAS platform and the inability of Netgear to resolve problems (blocking NAS requiring a hard reset), I decided to buy a QNAP TS - 569 L and use it to host my ESXi data store. Now, I'm migrating my VMs from the iSCSI data store hosted on the ReadyNAS to the iSCSI data store hosted by QNAP.

  My VMs are supplied thin, and I want to preserve thin provisioning after migration. The data store Navigator ESXi can move (or copy) machines virtual data to another store, but thin-set in service virtual machines become thick-set service once they have been moved (or copied). Somebody advised Veeam to that end, I've installed and configured. Unfortunately, Veeam-error with the message that the current license does not have the migration of virtual machines from a data store to another. Just today, I learned that he must have at least the ESXi Essentials ($500) license to allow this type of migration of Veeam.

  I also tried OVFTool (the MMware command line utility), using the following syntax:

  . / ovftool - ds QNAP-iSCSI - dm = vi thin: / / vi [email protected]/CUCM-Pub: / / [email protected]

  where:

  QNAP-iSCSI is the name of the data store on the QNAP

  192.168.200.10 is the IP address of my box of ESXi that is connected to two data stores iSCSI (the one organized by the ReadyNAS and the other by the QNAP).

  CUCM-Pub is the name of the virtual machine on the ReadyNAS iSCSI data store I'm migrating to the QNAP iSCSI data store.

  However, I get the following error message:

  Error: Unexpected Option: vi: / / [email protected]/CUCM-Pub

  This is probably due to the same issue - free ESXi license does not allow this type of VM migration. So, what are my options with free ESXi license? I'm not willing to pay $500 for the license of the essential at this stage.

  Thank you!

  A few options, I can think of are:

  • export to the FVO and re - import
  • use VM explore Trilead and backup/restore virtual machines
  • Use the vmkfstools command to copy the virtual disks

• ESXi: creation of data store

  has obtained ESXi installed 5.1.

  have a couple of questions regarding the creation of a data store. My VM will reside on a synology 1512 +. the NAS has active windows and NFS file system.

  When I create the data store by using NFS, I just enter the IP address of the NAS and shared folder path (mount point)?

  I need to create a store of data by VM?

  can I import my existing virtual machines after that the data store is created?

  TIA

  No, you can have several VM in a single warehouse NFS. Simply storage vMotion virtual machine on your newly commissioned data store.

• access to an esxi from another data store

  I want to access a data store located inside an esxi 4.1 from another server. Is this possible?

  Unfortunately P2V failed CLI or schedulling

  What of Veeam FastSCP?

  You can use scp with keys and cron service...

  But you can't copy file while the virtual machine is running.

• RV120W ROUTER/firewall "cannot display the webpage".

  I have a small LAN using a T1 of One Communications line.  Static IP address.

  30 workstations.  Windows 2003 DHCP server.

  Installed new RV-120W firewall router last week replacing an old unit of Netgear.

  Configure VPN tunnel on the unit, have remote access for about 10 users.

  This part works well.  A little slow, but acceptable.

  My question: is internet connectivity on internal LAN in and out.  She's very agitated.

  Upload and download speed has been consistent (~2.5M/sec)

  External Pings see the very minimal loss.

  Users have seem intermittent loss of web streams and corrupt downloads.  web activity 90% is ok, but we continue then getting "cannot display the webpage error."

  NSLOOKUP displays the DNS, but occasssionally "TIMEOUT" occurs.

  I got the provider perform loopback tests and replace WIC on CISCO 1841 router T1, but I still see the behavior.

  I see by reading other forms, that it is an ongoing problem with the routers of RV.

  My settings...

  Public static IP / DNS on the router.

  Reverses the MTU to 1500.  I have adjusted downwards by increment to 1350.

  Windows Server 2003 has RV120W address as the router / gateway.

  T1 to CISCO 1841 ROUTER... to CISCO RV120W... to LAN CISCO SLM248G interrrupteurs (2).

  I do not configure all redirects the port.

  I continue the line tests on my end, but as I said this problem was not existing with Netgear unit.

  Please indicate any change of setting / suggestions.

  Hi Jason et al...

  In my view, the technician are now experiencing a UDP on the Rv120W question.

  The internal discussions on the issue of R & D and development seems to be;

  1. default on RV120W a UDP Flood attack control that limit 25 UDP by customer connections in one case there, IE to a particular instance of time a PC behind the router can establish only 25 UDP Transactions, if we exceed router drops packets UDP.

  2. we have a script that sends dns queries to search at a very high pace that the router deletes the entries in the UDP, in this way, that we accumulate the UDP entry in the router table (IE 25 entries)

  3. once 25 limit is reached, we are unable to resolve DNS queries, in addition to using the script or by using the browser.

  4. in real-world scenarios it could be a PC behind the router and open a website where all the elements on the Web page are related to the different website, if you open this type of Web site, it may have links to over 25 different site and clog the table routers UDP for the PC and the user may not able to solve queries DNS additional and impossible of browse all new Web sites. This inability to browse happens until the UDP entries on the router time dead and are deleted.

  5. this limit of 25 is because of the feature called raw block UDP on the router that is enabled by default.

  6. once we disable the block UDP Flood, router does not check 25 connections limit UDP and dns resolution is continuous, without interruption.

  This is a customers in the area could be to see breaks in the DNS resolutions and browse site failed.

  Some customers talked explicitly about DNS failures.

  Jason I see that you have placed a service call, so I hope that CCORAL who posted August 15 should be helping you.

  So people, if the technician finds the problem not a hardware issue requiring an RMA, the technician will intensify the call for our people of level 2 in the Irvine case, probably CCORAL.  You will get a help to solve this problem.

  The small business support center, should be aware of the problem. Please do not hesitate to show them this announcement, I am ready to discuss with them to get things moving.

  Yet once, if you have not already done, please contact the HWC and place a request for service and keep a copy of this number they give you as a reference (you can need). My apologies for the inconvenience that you all had.

• Cannot display URLs

  Cannot display the complete rankings (http://www.pgatour.com/leaderboard.html) on the site of the PGA TOUR. I have information of the site COMPUTER he uses Javascript and pop-up windows. It's white table in "Content" FF.

  Firefox needs to load the page with the default settings.

  You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-# .js files and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences

  You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

  Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from that domain you don't want to lose then check that back up these data or make a comment.

  You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

  It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

• "Cannot display page" error message when you try to download 2010 professional

  Error message on Internet download from trusted sites?

  I am trying to download 2010 Professional on my computer.  Yes, I have a product key.  Whenever I try to download, I get an error message "cannot display the page.  This often happens to me.  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you with your concern for Windows!

  I see from the description of your post, that you are unable to download Microsoft Office Professional 2010.

  If you get the error message in Internet Explorer , then this might be the cause:

  For performance reasons, where Internet Explorer cannot establish a connection to a proxy server, the proxy server is added to a list of proxy servers bad so that it is not reused for a period of time. This period is 30 minutes by default. If a proxy auto-configuration script returns a PROXY list that specifies several proxy servers, a connection to the proxy in the list will be attempted. If the connection fails, the process is repeated until a connection is established, or the list is exhausted. If the list is exhausted and no connection is established, the user will receive a "Cannot display Page" error message in Internet Explorer.

  We would like to get more information about you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

  1. What is the full error message?

  2 are you able to download other files without any problem?

  3. what web browser do you use to download?

  4. what version of Windows are you using? What service pack is installed on the computer?

  5. based on what site are you trying to download?

• "Receive error message" due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display WIndows firewall settings "when you turn the Windows Firewall

  Original title: how to enable the Windows Firewall?

  How can I activate the Windows Firewall?

  When I click on it in the Control Panel, I get a message that says "Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display WIndows firewall settings".

  I use Microsoft Essentials antivirus.

  Hi Tom,

  A firewall is software or hardware that checks information coming from the Internet or a network. The firewall blocks the information or allows information to pass to your computer. If the information is blocked or passed through depends on your firewall settings. A firewall can prevent malicious software (such as worms) to access your computer through a network or the Internet. A firewall can also help stop your computer from malware sent to other computers. Windows XP, Windows XP SP2 and Windows XP SP3 includes firewall software.

  Perform the steps from the link below and see if it helps.

  How can I turn on or turn off the firewall in Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later versions?

  Hope this information helps.

• "due to an unidentified problem, windows cannot display windows firewall settings" fixed but still can not visit some sites and the laptop now turns off the coast on me. What should I do?

  I have an Apire one laptop with Windows xp service pace 3. I had to restore it to factory about 3 years ago. Some time after that the sound system began to slow and the Synaptics mouse stop working properly. I can move the pointer, but the left click does not work. It works in safe mode but not in normal windows. I used the Acer eRecovery for correct, but it did not work. I tried to download the driver for the mouse on the internet, but some how it could stop the download. I gave up at tring to fix. Some time in late March or early April, I couldn't access internet and after 22:30. I ran the diagnosis that is provided by internet explore and he said that the HTTP and HTTPS worked but the FTP did not work. AVG later told me my firewall is disabled and there was the possibility to reactivate it and I did. After internet explore stop allowing you to enter certain sites that I wanted to enter, I ran the Diagnostics again and he told me that a firewall client has been the cause of the problem. I tried to control my firewall setting, but had that "due to a problem not identified, windows cannot display the firewall settings". I thought AVG was the problem, so I have unintalled then he returned and attempted to access the firewall but got the same message. I typed in Google MySapce and found this site. I followed a few directions given to others in the thread started by joecarpenter33 and discovered that my firewall has been deleted and Base filtering engine has been deleted also. I downloaded and ran Malwarebytes ANti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition and tdsskiller. MBAM has found a Trojan. The results of the analysis is less to:
