• Cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.

  When I try to backup Quicken, I received the error: cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.  My last backup of Quicken was 16/07/2010.  I don't know why I can't back up now.  Is there a way to fix this?

  Why not save to a folder on your hard drive and burn them to a CD - R from there? I can't tell from the little you wrote if the problem is with Quicken (not work or you have incorrectly backup location) or with your CD - RW drive. How about more details to work with?

• Cannot open the disk could not be locked the file

  Error when you try to share a drive between two virtual machines.  I have two web servers VM and a disk shared data, each web server has 20 GB for operating system disks, and they share a 500 GB drive for data.  I use clustered OCFS2 file system later.

  See the 500 GB drive, but when we turn on the two VM the second throws the following error:

  "An error was received from the ESX host turning on VM Myweb1.

  Cannot open disk ' / vmfs/volumes/MyWeb1/MWeb1.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

  Cannot lock the file.

  I've read about this error before but can't find where and understand that it's either because I don't set them up right to start with, or that there is some extra config I can do in the s flat *.vmx file?

  Here's what we did when creating virtual machines and a shared disk, is there something missing

  Create 2 new virtual machines for Web servers with disks of 40GB of basis for the operating system and then add a new hard drive to one of the virtual machines in vSphere BUT must be correctly configured for sharing between multiple virtual machines.

  For example, to change the settings > Add > hard drive > create a new virtual disk > choose size and choose 'Thick eager disposition to zero' > under 'Virtual Device Node' choose a "SCSI (1:0)" then finish.

  Once the drive has been zero there would stay out in 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.

  Change the settings of the 2nd virtual machine and choose Add hard drive, choose existing, navigate to which you have created the VM 1 drive, make sure you assign it the same SCSI (1:0).

  Thanks a lot a lot a lot for any help in advance

  Did you also step on 2 VM below

  After the disc has been zero go back outside to 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.

  I understand what you say, I have created a disk of asm with 500 MB of size using asmtool, so I can't resize using asm instance.

  1. What is the use of asmtool-added option, we can add an existing using this command drive space?

  This isn't for adding space, but it adds the label to the disk partition...
  asmtool - add \Device\Harddisk1\Partition1 ORCLDISKASM0
  >

  2 can you please explain this more, * it could be increased if you already held 300 total asm 500 disk space *?

  Think like OS, you have created a 10 GB partition for disk D:\ example. And now, you create files/folders with size of hugh (as some movies ;)) to drive D:\, so eventually your drive D:\ will fill. This is the case even with your asm disk, once you have used all your available space of the asm disk (that you created through asmtoll), you can not increase.
  By asmtool - create D:\Asm_disks\disk3 500, you assign the total size to 300 from the asm disk. Just as you add 10 GB partition for OS...

  You come to the backup from my point of view: it could be increased if you already worked 300 asm disk space total 500

  I have created the disk with the following text:
  asmtool - create 500 D:\Asm_disks\disk3 > size is 500

  I create diskgroup with
  SQL > create diskgroup DB 'D:\Asm_disks\disk3' size disc 300; > Here I wll use only max 300 size of 500 total. So once I get to the threshold of 300, I can increase the asm disk up to 500.
  As
  SQL > alter diskgroup DB resizing disk "D:\Asm_disks\disk3' size 500; > Increasing up to 500

  Default if the clause you SIZE omit while creating a diskgroup, asm then disc occupies all the available space of the device that you have created by asmtool

  >

  3. What is meant occupation here, not here where we can control the right of occupancy?

  We can control as I explained.

• cannot expand the c partition in unallocated space

  I have a HP Pavilion dv5224nr laptop running Windows XP.  I've been low on disk space, so I came on this forum to find out how to remove the recovery partition, since I have the recovery CD from HP.  Now that I deleted the partition through disk management, it only allows me to expand the C partition in unallocated space left by removing the partition D.  "Extend partition" is not an option in the menu when I right click.  I also tried going through the "diskpart" command prompt, select the volume and him asking to "extend".  I received a message that it was unable to extend the volume.  How can I recover the 12 GB of space on my C drive?  Thank you.

  I downloaded a free utility called Easeus Partition Master and it worked very well for resizing my partition C.  I also used explores the function to watch the 1 gig unknown partition and it wasn't empty, so I left it alone.  Thanks for your help!

• Cannot complete the disk check

  Hello, please help. I'm not very comp savvy. I run Windows 7 Professional on my computer, I think that it is a 64-bit AMD chipset? My problem is that I have tried everything I can to throw the disc check start ay (NTFS?, so will not work while the drive is in use). I get a message that I have a corrupt firmware and so cannot run diskcheck. Do not know what software it may be and cannot recover until diskcheck is done... Catch 22. I tried the command prompt in elevated mode... .even without help because of NTFS! I am also told by convenience store that my ATI driver is not loaded. Tried using Windows 7 installation disc to repair, but it does not seem to have this facility... I wanted to just re - install Windows. Tried to start my chipset reinstall but was not sure which item to choose. Lost, lost, lost. Help, please?

  First of all, scan SFC. The following link will help you:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833/en-us

  Then try running the disk check. If the problem persists, try running Seagate SeaTools from following link to scan the hard drive for errors (also works with hard drives Seagate-no):

  For Windows:

• Workstation 8; cannot resize the disk on the full clone

  I have a related clone I want to create a complete clone so that I can expand the virtual hard disk.  But after I created the full clone and try to use the indicator Workstation 8 utility I have an error message: "You can't develop this virtual disk because it is a linked clone."  I tried this three times, with great attention the last two times to read all dialog boxes to make sure I'm not a mistake, but the same error comes back every time.

  Here are the steps I go through:

  (1) turn off the linked clone

  (2) delete all snapshots for the linked clone

  (3) file-> open-> choose the clone of linke

  (4) VM-> manage-> Clone - to pen the Clone Virtual Machine Wizard. in the wizard:

  (5) "The current state of the virtual machine" pick (I tried as long as and create a snapshot and try to clone from that)

  (6) select "CREATE FULL CLONE' (not ' create a linked clone)

  (7) name the new complete cloned machine, and then click on finish

  After about 10-15 minutes, I get a message indicates the complete clone is finished.  I then close VMware, open it back up, open the new full clone that I created and select chose to: edit virtual machine settings-> tab-> click on the hard drive to extend hardware-> utilities-> Expand.  The error box I mentioned above pop and 8 workstations does not indicator the hard drive.and error as described above.

  Am I missing something here?

  If you can confirm the virtual disk of the new virtual machine is not a Flash disk (i.e. with 00000x.vmdk in its name) and the vmware.log file (created after you turn on the virtual machine) shows not all other hard files, you can check if the .vmsd of the virtual machine file contains incorrect entries. Essentially - after making sure that no other hard files are used - you could just delete the .vmsd file.

• Cannot extend the disk in virtual machines on ESXi4.1

  Hi people,

  Sorry if its posted in the wrong forum. I am unable to extend the VM disk but its having enough space I added it drive. The problem here is one of the disks are having 2 C and D partition on the same drive / same vmdk. Therefore, it is possible to expand the D drive shows unallocated after adding the space. I know through Standalone VMware converter 5.0 we can resize. If any other option other than that. Any help on this will be appreciated. Please see the screenshot.

  Thank you

  vmguy

  Hello.

  I have met many of them, and Converter is the best way to address them. When c is first, you can copy other data readers to new VMDK, but Converter is often easier and faster than that.

  Good luck!
