Change CPU host

I was thinking about upgrading my CPU on my server for vSphere.

I was wondering what I need to do to prepare for the change?

I do a complete reinstallation of vSphere? Does include reinstalling all my guests too, or can I save them and they will work on whatever material I have?

I also a guest of the 2008 Server is enabled with a license that can only be activated once, it will have to be reactivated (aka I will lose)?

Thank you

Sorry if these are stupied questions just want to know what I'm getting myself in to

As mentioned, it's pretty much a plug-and-play operation, but backups are always recommended.

Some other things to consider:

-If you go to 8-processor basis, then you may need to upgrade your license

-CPU change can change the EVC CPU mode if you use that.

  • I'm about to change web hosting service, but not the email addresses - how to back up my archived emails?

    I am changing web hosting services but will keep the areas and associated e-mail addresses. I don't want to lose the mails I saved in folders. They will remain available after I have change the host site or I have to save elsewhere? If I need to save, what will do?

    It is IMAP

    With IMAP, all mail is handled on the server. So, to keep all your mail, you'll need to save all messages in your account "local folders".

    First of all to replicate the folder structure on the server in your 'local folders '. You will need create these folders manually.

    Select all messages in a folder on the server (press Ctrl-a). Right-click the selected messages - copy - choose the corresponding destination folder

    I would like to start with a single message to test the procedure. If you have a big no. messages, in pieces, do not copy thousands of messages at once. After each copy action, verify that messages have in fact been copied on.

    Repeat the procedure for every folder on the server.

    Once your new account (IMAP) works, you can download the messages to the new server.

  • Satellite P20-102: Questions about changing CPU

    Hello

    I have a SP20-102 which has a 3.40 Ghz P4 processor. 800 Mhz FSB, 512 KB L2 cache with HT enabled - I think the sSpec is SL793.

    It seems that the cooling mechanism cannot quite in the face of this processor and fan is on a lot, especially when you do any activity of the CPU (for example compile code, etc.).

    I assume that it is possible to replace the processor by another, slower.

    My questions are:

    1. what would be the other CPU compatible with this laptop?

    2. is there any particular CPU should I look out for that will run more cold than the current?

    Thank you

    R.

    Hi Robi

    I have Satellite P20-303 over two years. The camera is awesome and works perfectly. After a year and a half, I noticed that the unit was a little stronger and ventilation was longer on the maximum speed. I removed the plastic on the bottom which cover three events and found a lot of dust and my cat inside s hair. After the dusting and cleaning of the device was not easy again and the use of every day the unit was not strong.

    The physical infrastructure is very well set up and your desire to change CPU is really unnecessary in my opinion. The device, configure on track and enjoy life.

  • I need to change the host file in Windows\System32\drivers\etc but I get an error message telling me that I need administrator privileges to do this.

    I use Windows 7 on a Toshiba laptop. I am logged in as Administrator group member why not I have permissions to modify the file (I need to add an IP address to the list)?

    I never had this problem when using XP, so why are administrator permissions so darn limited in Windows 7? And why does the system not recognize me as a member of the Administrators group? It's so frustrating.

    Windows 7 UAC (User Account Control) prevents rogue programs do things behind your back. Click Start / Help, then look for help on UAC learn more.

    To change your hosts file, follow these steps:
    1. Locate Notepad in your Start menu or in the System32 folder.
    2. Right-click.
    3. Left click run as administrator.
    4. Open the hosts file, edit and save it.
