Cannot remove orphaned snapshots

• Remove orphaned snapshots of backup failed

  ARCserve backup software is a failure while trying to back up virtual machines and leaving behind the clichés that are deleted. I work with CA (ARCserve) to solve backup problems.

  I have a few virtual machines in need of consolidation and others who don't. Can I just do a "remove all" snapshots on these virtual machines or do I consolidate those in need, first of all?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Jim,.

  Both delete and consolidate would eliminate them the snapshots, IE do it connects and validate data on the basic disk (VMDK). I'd rather have the virtual machine under tension, then go with consolidation,

  Since we can not estimate on when it can be completed.

• Need help: cannot remove the snapshot - score 98% full

  I have a VM ~ 25GB that runs on my first VMWare Server for about a year. It's in a 30 GB partition, but at some point, a snapshot is created. I don't remember this, but I must have. I can't merge the snapshot using VMWare infrastructure Web Access; the option is not available. I don't see the snapshots by looking at the directory via SSH consle.

  I have another partion available is the same size.

  It is a production server and it seems that I need to deal with that immediately.

  I would like to apprecte suggestions or references to helop to solve me this problem.

  -Thank you,

  removal of files inside the guest is contra-productive - it will enlarge only snapshots.

  Hmm - so you say version 2.0.2 also has this bug?

  So either copy the VM is much more big disk and use the shortcut function to remove a snapshot - or copy it to USB and plug this drive into a host Workstation with installed.

  Or - this would work as well with VMserver2...

  Add a second disk of the virtual machine - nominal size just a little more grand, then one you have now - in a Knoppix live CD boot and

  If DD \u003d/dev/sda of = / dev/sdb

  When the sda is the original disc and the DSP is the new

• Cannot remove orphaned files

  If you know how this works and it should be simple. I ran check all links to the site. I pointed out the orphaned files on the Link Checker tab. There are many of them - plus 6 000. I want to delete these files. I select them all and press the button Delete, nothing happens. I select a bit and try the same thing. I try with both buttons remove and cmd-delete (which works in the Mac Finder). I even try to check to see if there is a delete option under the right button of the mouse.  Still nothing. (unless somehow, these files are deleted invisible but always appear on the list?) Shouldn't the name of the file disappear from the list when they are deleted?) I checked my keyboard and the delete button works.  Any ideas what is happening? Any other method can I use to remove these files?

  I suggest you re-create your cache.

  You will find in the menus at the top.

• Cannot remove orphans from hard drive

  Hello

  I reformatted a nas ISCSI box but I forgot that it was connected to one of my servers in Vspheres with a hard drive connected to a virtual server of 2003.

  The data store is grayed out in the summary page

  While do - there is no way I can return the drive.

  If the C: disk vmdk still exists, create a new virtual machine and attach this vmdk instead of create a new virtual hard disk.

• Cannot remove orphaned templates of VI 2.5.0 inventory

  I have a few models on one of my esx hosts that, for some reason, is become grayed out in virtual center. Records were removed the vmfs volume (trying to solve the problem since I couldn't do anything with them through the VC) but I can't remove these virtual machines of the inventory. they appear only when you view the server through VC. If I find the server directly using the vi client they do not appear.

  When good click the VM options are grayed out as well.

  This is originally my backups to report failures from his tent of backup of the virtual computer that is no longer that does not exist. And I just want to clean in general (there are five).

  Thank you

• Cannot delete orphans actions in Windows 7

  I have cloned my hard drive and replaced by a larger. In the process, I temporarily deleted all the other drives. One of them had some "shared folders".

  Now I have the largest disk and have deleted a "recovery" partition, I have several actions that have been in a different drive letter and are now: "not accessible" and cannot be opened: "could not start Explorer hosted to..." »

  Command prompt "net share/delete xxxxx" said that they do not exist.

  Computer Management shows them, but the only option is the 'open '.

  Mountvol.exe does not recognize that the orphaned drive letter part therefore cannot remove any mount point.

  While they are there... but can not be referenced or removed.

  Any help with this would be most appreciated.

  Mountvol will only show local readers, not the network shares.

  If you are sure that you watch them actions (which I doubt) then you can remove them here: HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\shares. Better to create a restore point before the registry of hacking and to check that your repair CD Windows 7 is good nick.

• Orphaned snapshots after Consolidation?

  My classmates one of our servers to the left with a snapshot on it for MORE than 6 months, so that the hypervisor ran out of space.  I'm, «Believe» at this point, the file delata, once he ran out of space, was coruupt, as he could not continue to add data in the Delta.  Being a limited space, I quickly STOP the machine virtual and tried the trick, to make a SMALL snapshot, with the machine turned off and then went to snapshit Manager and chose, 'DELETE ALL'... of course the space on the data store was NOT 1.5 times more than snapshots, if removing it does not.  I thought at this point, it would be better to migrate the virtual computer in a data store that is large enough to perform the consolidation.  I mounted a datastore NFS to the hypervisor, deleted the current virtual incentory computer and made a COPY of the virtual machine to the new data store, which has been a success.  I then tried to start the virtual machine, and first he failed, because of course, the snapshot that was used for the virtual hard disk was corrupt.  At this point, I analyzed the data, I looked through the VMDK to determne which was the last good snapshot VMDK.  I found and edited ther. VMX file to point at him and of course, start the VM.  A good result.  I then turned it off, make a small snapshot again and then choose REMOVE ALL.  This time it went through successfully.  My VM is not pointed at the BASE vmdk-flat file.  BUT, I seem to have ORPHANED vmdk delta files, what is the best way to deal with this?  If you need logs please let me know.

  My goal is to clean all orpahned uneeded files and then copy the virtual computer to the original data store.

  PS - my only real concern is at this point that there seems to be some delta files hang out, although I DO NOT believe that they are used, since I showed up my base vmdk, after consolidation through the snapshit Manager.

  Impatience of all advice.  Thanks in advance.

  I'm still confused! It's the same VM we talked to Re: orphan Snapshots after Consolidation?.

  Since the snapshot (1, 3, 4, 2 Basic) string is equal to 'PowerSchoolTestWeb.vmdk', you can use the same command as shown in Re: orphan Snapshots after Consolidation? - with just replace the name of hard - to clone the virtual disk.

• How can I determine the amount of disk space is required to remove a snapshot of peacebuilding assistance, then a fret?

  I have a 27G vm running on Fusion 2.0.1 - the Mac OS X file system has only about 15 G of free space. I want to shrink the vm disk to release ~ 10 of unused space (which was initially to unpack a large SQL Server db that has since been removed in XP), however, I am unable to use tools to decrease because there are snapshots and cannot remove the last snapshot - when I try I get the error: «unable to clean deleted files» : There is not enough space on the file system for the selected operation. »

  I read other associated messages and understand how the snapshot deletion process works (stolen turns into the existing vm before be deleted). I tried a solution of possible workaround I've seen described elsewhere - creation of a new snapshot, and then remove the existing (old) snapshot and try to remove then the new snapshot - however, which results in the same error. If this procedure fails, a snapshot of the 'Consolidation of assistance' is sometimes created.

  I think that error indicates that space is insufficient on the Mac file system, is that correct? The 15G is not enough. If so, is there a simple rule that told me how much free space will be necessary?

  I think it's a darn good reason to buy a bigger hd faster for my Macbook - but thought I would ask first

  Thanks for your help - much appreciated.

  Doug

  It depends on.  IF you have created your virtual disk as a monolith, then you need at least as much free space as the defined maximum size of the virtual drive.  If you created it as a disc of 2 GB-Split, then you need a little more than 2 GB of free space.

• Cannot remove the ghost folder. Error message: there is no such mailbox

  When I configure Thunderbird to connect to my Alpine Webmail, I had to rearrange my folders. Cannot remove a folder titled "mail" because according to TB "there is no such mailbox" but still shows on the tab my folders. I read through the previous discussions and have tried to unsubscribe the ghost folder, but that did not work or the other. I have a Mac OSX if this affects what it is. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

  Hello world. I solved the problem... somehow. By removing the account of Treasury Board and put in place again, TB has been able to sync with the files that were on Alpine. The ghost folder still presented (despite not existing not not on the Alpine site), but by changing the directory to the IMAP server of "mail" to "mailbox" the ghost folder disappeared. I found myself with records who have been named oddly (most likely due to the change of the name of directory) so when I changed the IMAP server directory to "mail" it reset my files with the way they were, with the exception of the ghost folder, that was no longer there. I'm not entirely sure why it worked, but in case someone else has a similar problem, I recommend to give it a try.

  Thank you all for your comments and help.

• Cannot remove iCloud backup of my old iphone

  I upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a 6 s iPhone yesterday. Activation and downloading my settings and applications from the iCloud went perfectly. I am now trying to delete the backup of the iPhone 4 on the iCloud, so I can have enough space to save my iPhone 6 s. I get a message, "this backup cannot remove because it is in use". Any suggestions?

  Hi Poppabear5,

  Congratulations on your new iPhone 6 s! I understand that you have a problem with deleting your iPhone upward iCloud. Let's see if we can understand what is happening.

  The type of message you see, looks like your iPhone 6s is not made backup upward. The best way to confirm this is to see if it is possible to make a backup with your iPhone 6s and see if Yes see a message in the sense of "this iPhone is currently being restored and will back up automatically when it's done.". If this is the case, then you want to wait for the restore before you delete the backup. Another thing to think about is if you still have your iPhone 4, make sure it is not turned on and backup. It would be considered in service as well.
