• Cannot create snapshots of error message replica devices

  Greetings,

  I'm currently testing my recovery plans for all of my groups and I get the following error message:

  Cannot create snapshots of the replica devices. (Include a screenshot of the error) By the message, the storage Port cause is not identified, either the storage port information in NFS list is incorrect else check the option "isIP4" in the file ontap_config corresponds to the IP address in the field of the NFS.  Any suggestion? Thanks for all your comments as always!

  OK after doing some reading on the NetApp KB Portal, the problem was related to a firewall policy applied to the LIF configured for NFS traffic. After I change the firewall for data management policy, I could test my recovery plan. Jürgen Vervoort was therefore in the right direction, but it was on the storage level.

• Error "cannot migrate automatically.

  Hello

  I am trying to get into one of my hosts esx in maintenance mode but still get the same error, Maintenance Mode 'Enter' is stuck on 2%.

  In the "tasks and events", I see that there is always the same error "Cannot migrate automatically" on the same vm.

  I'm familiar with this error when a CD-ROM is connected or something like that, but this isn't the case.

  When I'm trying manual vmotion this virtual machine and it works fine, without error.

  My vSphere cluster is built from ESX 4 4 U1 servers that are set up to work with DRS and HA.

  DRS recommendation is to close 2 of my servers, so this probably isn't a performance problem.

  Any idea?

  TNX,

  Tal

  Hello

  Not sure if you are still having this problem, but the most common cause of this is that DRS in not "fully automated" value, so DRS is not able to automatically move virtual machines off the coast of the host to allow it to go to maintenance mode.

  I recommend that if you have the DRS in 'manual' or "partially automated" for a particular reason, then you must manually migrate the virtual machines on the host before trying to place it in maintenance mode.

  Hope this helps

• Recover a file VMDK Snapshoted / consolidate a snapshot

  Hello

  I have a very big problem and I don't know how to deal with in the right way, I had a few old server that was set up with the weekly snapshots.

  and we have some hardware problem with the server that cause some files to capture instant adeleted the data store ccidentally.

  We can recover some of the vmdk files.

  image attached with files you can find on the server.

  We tried a few steps in order to recover the machine (change on vm vmdk configure / create a new snapshot, and delete everything in the Snapshot Manager)-I was able to turn it on with the flat vmdk, but the data is less 6 months ago.

  I found a few articles on consolidate an instant snapshot and difficulty of string but I did not really understand how to go about it.

  What should I do? Is it possible to merge these files or extract files from them?

  

  Okay, so what I found in the files and file sizes I rebuilt an instant string possible.

  The string is: 5-> 4-> 1->->->-> db1.vmdk 6 2 14

  I had to modify two files hard (see attachment). The first fix was on no. 14 that indicated a snapshot does not exist n13. The (next) one parent that makes sense here is no. 2, so I went no. 14, no. 2. The second challenge was to change the parrentCID No. 6 to match the basic disk CID. The reason for this shift is more likely, because you have turned on on the virtual machine with db1. vmdk used as virtual virtual machine disk.

  What I recommend you do now, is to replace the two .. the VMDK (12 and 6) files with those that I have attached to this post and then clone the virtual disk from the command line by running vmkfstools-i db1 - 000005.vmdk db1 - clone.vmdk

  The next step is to attach the newly created clone as an additional virtual disk with a help of VM, or - if you want to see if the VM is able to start - fix it db1 - clone.vmdk directly on the virtual machine from db1. In the second case, please create a new snapshot before you turn the virtual machine with the cloned virtual disk. In this way that the db1 - clone.vmdk will not be changed.

  In no case be prepared there could be corruption in the file system of the client!

• Snapshots - consolidate or remove?

  Before a SBS 2003 to SBS 2011 migration, I created a snapshot of my SBS 2003 VM, just in case I ran into problems, I could go back to the snapshot. The migration has been a success. Both servers are still up to-and-operational and communication with each other, however, I would now like to remove the snapshot of the SBS 2003 VM. Should I consolidate:

  

  or remove:

  

  What is the difference. Of course, the SBS 2003 must continue as usual without loss of data.

  Thanks a lot for your comments.

  Best regards, Oliver

  No doubt, you can use both, I prefer to use the option 'Remove' in the menu snapshot to make sure that the snapshot is deleted.

  The consolidation option is also available in case there is no snapshot, but there are records of active snapshot.

  Sometimes a snapshot can be removed, but in the background, the consolidation of the drive has failed. In this case there is not an option to delete a snapshot, but the discs are still divided on the data store. Now, you can use the option to consolidate to merge these discs.

• Cannot migrate my profile from XP to Windows 7

  I want to migrate my Firefox profile (bookmarks, passwords, latest sites visited, installed extensions/applications settings etc.) of my Win XP 64 machine to my new Win 7 machine. Firefox is updated (34.0 5) on my XP 64 and Windows 7 machines (I manually installed the active apps/extensions on Win 7). However Firefox was originally installed on my XP machine (at least 6) years ago so what counts.

  I have read and tried everything I can think of but * nothing * works.

  On my XP machine, I have only the default profile (to run Firefox with the - P option). It is located in C:\Documents and Settings\TexasTim65\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\1f2yd5bq.default

  On my Win 7 machine, I find the default profile in C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default.

  Try #1) I copied the folder 1f2yd5bq.default for Win 7. I run Firefox - P, but the profile manager sees only the default profile. So apparently, it cannot detect new profiles randomly added to the profiles folder. So that's a no-go.

  Try #2) I open the folder bjy0sgis.default on Win 7. I delete everything in this folder. I can copy and paste into all kinds of 1f2yd5bq.default. I start Firefox and got nothing. No favorites, no sites are visited and I guess no password information or anything else. If this doesn't work for me either even if MANY people claim that this is what they had to do.

  Try #3) using the Manager of profiles on Win 7, I added a new profile called hand. I just copied once again 1f2yd5bq.default in the new profile. I put in hand as default profile used (I know works because it uses different extensions/plugins) but of course I have nothing of my copied profile.

  So I'm puzzled. Something is different about my setup which is not allowing me to move on in a simple way.

  TIA,

  Tim

  P.S. is there something I can do to get Firefox to create EXACTLY the same name profile under Win 7 as I had in XP? I would have thought the same username would produce the same default profile, but apparently it does not.

  "On my Win 7 machine, in the fact that I find the default profile
  
  C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default. "
  

  There is another folder 'Profile' to C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default - without the \Local in the path. This is the folder you need to copy your old profile files in.

• Cannot take snapshots of suspended after 6 ESXi upgrade

  Hi all, first time around;

  A few days ago, I performed an ESXi spend 5.5 to 6 by Update Manager. Everything worked like a charm, until I realized that I can take is more suspended snapshots of the virtual machines running on the host computer. Tried W2K8R2, W2012, VM Version 8/11 and VMWare Tools old and more recent versions. Whenever I try to get a snapshot of put it to sleep I get these errors in the virtual machine vmware.log file.

• Cannot delete the linked clone pool

  Hello

  Please bear with me, as I'm still not a lot of experience with this product. I can't remove a linked clone automated pool manager. Virtual machines and records (including records perisitant) associated with this pool have all been previously removed (deleted from the drive) of vCenter. The pool remains Gray and in the State of "suppression", in the display manager.

  around every 45 seconds, this event is logged in the display manager:

  module = connection to the server. message = error commissioning took place the Pool win-xp-related-clones due to a configuration problem.

  I don't know yet where to start troubleshooting. Pool seems to think again its status of "supply", meanwhile, the menu pool bed and the pool is actually disappeared for a long time that the "deletion" status.  It seems that my SQL db view can be somewhat altered and that maybe I need to delete some data manually.

  What newspapers I consider to facilitate troubleshooting? I searched the journal of composer for the name of my pool (win-xp-related-clones), but there is no match.

  I run see 4.5 and vCenter 4.1.

  Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

• Cannot migrate between identical hosts in the same cluster - CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' inconsistency

  I have problems of migration of virtual machines between hosts that are identical. They are the new BL 6 490 HP servers with a pair of processors x 5570 @ 2.93 Ghz and I activated the "Intel Xeon 45nm Core 2" EVC mode, there is also two other cluster hosts (HP BL480 G1 with a pair of processors E5430 @ 2 .66GHz).

  I ESX4, vCenter4 and all the latest firmware on all devices.

  When I try to migrate an identical to another or to other hosts host machines, I get the following error;

  Host CPU is not compatible with the requirements of the virtual machine to CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' register

  Bits of the host: 0000:0000:0000:0000:0010:0010:0000:0001

  Required: 1000:0000:0000:000 x: xxx0:0x1x:xxx0:x 001

  Inconsistency detected for these features:

  • General incompatibilities; see section 1993 of possible solutions.

  I have consulted the Article KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1993 and the document referred to Sub http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1008315

  All affected machines are hardware VM 7, the last VMTools are installed, have not RDM or nonstandard hardware, there is no floppy disk or CD drive mapped drive

  I tried to change such CPUID mask specified in the document 1008315, but this did not help. I also tried to change the mask of CPUID for ecx to be 0-

  I turned off a VM to ensure that he had picked up the CVS settings. I am able to vMotion, virtual machine when it is off, but this is not enough as we have several "stuck" on the same host machine and cannot be moved by the DRS or manually.

  Virtual machines are Windows 2003 (R2, SP2, x 32). worked well before vMotion on all hosts. Other identical machines from the same model are fast vMotioning very well, and when we were on ESX 3.5u2 wasn't a problem.

  Can someone advise me on how I can diagnose and fix this problem?

  I had the same problem after migrating from ESX 3.5 to V4.0 with almost the same HW-Configuration you have. (BL490c and BL480c). But in my environment, the article you mentioned has brought the solution:

  To manually remove the CPUID masks using the VI Client:

  1 power off the virtual machine.

  2 - Click on the VM, then click on change settings.

  3. click on the Options tab.

  4. Select CPUID mask under Advanced.

  5. click on advanced.

  6. click Reset all to default.

  7. click on OK.

  8. click on OK.

  9. start the virtual machine and migrate.

  Have you actually tried it? The default mask is OK, there is no problem with it in your environment, as I have said already, I have the same hardware as you.

• Dreamwever cs5.5 cannot save or stick translators not loaded due to errors

  Yesterday, everything was fine. No change, no new installs what it is.  I have Windows7 64, DW CS5.5.  All of a sudden today many things is falling apart: cannot open a html page and register a sub - is no longer an option. Cannot copy then paste into a page - even simple HTML.  Must use the "Paste special" option  Biggest problem is each page I opened, even after installing the latest updates, reboot and the soft opening DW is this new popup alert: the following translators were not loaded due to errors: ColdFusion.htm: invalid configuration information tha tis a.  Date.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.  Spry.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.

  Because it worked yesterday, the common solution I see is the old, uninstall and reinstall.  If this is the same disk, etc. Why that would help me?  Can someone point me to a more logical solution without blame code or anythign else?  I tried to create the easiest page in html with nothing between the head or the body - get always the same error.

  Thank you.

• Cannot find files on clone super duper, I can restore from Time Machine backup?

  First of all, my apologies for cross posting.

  I hope I can explain my situation with enough clarity so that someone can help out me. I feel a little bit of panic.

  I've had a Mac mini that I sold so need to wipe. I first backed up using Time Machine on an external hard drive. Then, I used Super Duper to clone on a second hard drive. I didn't need a bootable copy of the training, but need access to data, applications, etc. on it from time to time. My intension was to access the data I cloned and stored on the hard drive of my current Macbook Pro. Well, that day came and I went to access my cloned copy of the mini and only see a list of users. I'm not able to find files, documents, and etc.even if I use spotlight to search for. So my questions are:

  1. Can I view the contents of the double machine differently to see more than a list of users? (that is WHERE IS MY THING?)
     1. I have error somehow in my approach?
     2. If I made the mistake with the super duper close, can I restore my time machine to the top of an external drive on another external drive? I want to restore my MacBook hard drive.

  Thank you!!

  I was running just an another SuperDuper! Clone.

• Cannot Flash the BIOS on Satellite L500 due to low battery

  Hey all,.

  Obtained as Satellite L500 (PSLS0A-084002) here. I have the battery not charging issue and everything what I find point to an update of the BIOS.

  Of course, there is a new BIOS for download from the drivers of laptops. So I have the file WinPhlash "sl500 (mv) _bios_w210.exe. However, by running the fact falling before flashing the BIOS with an error number: 144.

  It is because of the battery is bellow 10% charge however I can't it above 10 percent fee that the laptop does not recognize it.

  There must be a way of to WinPhlash running without check. I read that you can run it with the "/ forceit" switch and who will be ignoring the error, but that was for some time and it seems WinPhlash have changed this as she always spits the error.

  I read running back help but after creating a boot cd back, he claims the exe cannot be run from BACK (ffffuuuuuuuu!).

  Any help appreciated. Thank you =).

  Maybe it sounds silly now but there at - it something serious, why you want to update the BIOS on your machine? I mean if everything is OK, why do you need new BIOS?

  In any case, I'm don't know if this will help but please try to remove the battery and check if the update of the BIOS starts if your laptop works on AC only.
