• Use virtual of ESX 3.5 machines in ESXi 5.0

  Hello

  I have a question. I need to spend our virtual ESX 3.5 machines a ESXi 5.0. So, I need to update the virtual hardware and the right vmTools?

  And to do this, I need to install the VMware Update Manager. But how to install this program? Do I need to configure a new server vCenter Server?

  Or is there another way?

  Thank you for your help.

  Best regards

  Dominik

  You upgrade to ESXi 5.0 on the same hardware or new?

  You have vCenter already in place or running a stand-alone host?

  For the upgrade of VMware Tools and hardware Virtua VUM is not required. Once the virtual machine is running on the host ESXi 5.0, it can be done on VM separately

  Refer to KB for the upgrade virtual hardware and Vmware tools

• Checking configuration of the Virtual Machine NIC

  Hello people.

  I put in a virtual infrastructure that separates discrete security (DMZ/Intranet/Extranet/etc.) areas using port groups.  My main concern is to ensure that VM is not accidentally bridged for port groups on two separate security zones.  Someone is aware of a third party or tools included that will allow me to list and checking the configuration of virtual NETWORK map of all VM in my data center?  We use ESX 3.5 and Virtual Center 2.5.

  Thank you...

  Did you watch NetWrix VMware Reporter?  It will monitor and audit of your VMware changes and much more.  Have you thought about streamlining your authorization center VC so that no one else can reach your VM and more groups specified admin settings.  You can then use the tasks & events to see what activities were conducted by users / specific actions.  We have implemented strict access to our systems of VC and the Strip unnecessary permissions to that effect.

• Allocation of disk space to virtual machines

  I played around with assigning physical disk space to a virtual machine, in the "Add Hardware Wizard", I selected hard drive & gt; Create a new virtual disk & gt; He gave a size of 100 GB stored with the virtual machine and not independent.

  When I started the VM space, which is all that I wanted to check if I stop the virtual machine. Rather than remove the new hard drive 2 settings of the virtual machine, I have restored a previous snapshot without the new HD. Now when I check the free space on datastore1, it seems that the 100 GB does not have to be added to the free space.

  I did something wrong?

  UPDATE:

  I just tried the process again but this time assigned 8 GB.  Then I checked free space on datastore1, and now I have the 100 GB back, less the 8 GB I just posted.  Any ideas?

  If you take out it just of the virtual machine, it does not actually remove the virtual disk that you created. As you say, there are 2 options when you remove the drive, we need to remove the virtual machine, and we need to remove the disc. If you remove the disk from the virtual machine, it will always keep the file even if it is not associated with a virtual machine. There is no question to delete this file. Just make sure that you delete the correct VMDK. It's easy, if it's the only drive of 100 GB or 8 GB, you have created.

• Ubuntu 10.10 - Brasero check disk

  After having burned the ISO to a CD using Brasero, I go in the menu check disk. I've specified the md5sum file and then pressed, check. However, after about 30 seconds I get this message on the screen: "the verification of the integrity of the file could not be performed. You do not have permissions to use this drive. I was able to sucessfully burn a CD, but not check. Screenshot is here: link: [https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/Checking%20Error.png?w=85cb0196]

  It's a laptop Toshiba Satellite A210 - 1 4 running under Ubuntu 10.10. Please let me know if you need more info.

  We cannot see the screenshot without connection.

  By the way: Toshiba doesn't support Linux and most likely to get Linux help is this post on various Linux forums.

• Satellite A660 - check disk upward on reboot

  every few months where I start or restart my laptop, the check disk starts automatically and takes all day (10 to 12 hours) to perform a disk check! worse yet, it's that I can't interrupt, this means no work that day there.

  I can't work if it is a scheduled task or when the laptop is out of battery when it is 'sleep'.

  did someone have the same problem and if so is it possible to stop what is happening?
  Thank you

  Looks like the hard drive is faulty. You must back up your data and create recovery disks, then test the HARD drive by using a CD bootable as Seagate Seatools for DOS.

  Replace the HARD drive if it is defective and execution of recovery, then put your data.

• Volume D: is dirty. Check Disk Local Disk d does not solve the problem

  Whenever I start my computer under WindowsXP SP3, chkdsk runs indicating that the D: Volume is dirty.  He noted no other problems.  I tried to run check disk Local Disk d with two checked options, but it does not solve the probem.  What should I try next?

  That is right.

  First of all, let us look at the ideas of the Microsoft support engineer:

  I would never not follow the suggestion of Microsoft Engineer in method 1.  This idea makes no sense.

  The Microsoft Support Engineer method 2 does not work for you (or most people), unless you have a XP installation CD bootable authentic with the same Service Pack as your installation.  In your case, you would need a true bootable XP with SP3 installation CD and most of the people do not have such an animal.  It is therefore extremely unlikely that will help you at all - and if your file system is damaged or dirty, I of course never suggests that in the first place until your file system is straightened.

  Volumes that contain file system errors is known as "Sales". When a volume is dirty, he has known file system errors, and you must run chkdsk on the volume to repair the problem.

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the on each volume's dirty bit (C, D, E, etc.), and if any volume is dirty, XP will automatically run chkdsk/p on next reboot on the volumes in an attempt to clear the dirty bit.  Which does not clear the bit of impurity or it may take several passes.

  If the volume dirty bit, one is set, this indicates that the file system may be in an inconsistent state. The dirty bit can be set because the volume is online and has some remarkable changes, because changes have been made to the volume and the computer shutdown until the changes have been committed to disk, or because corruption has been detected on the volume. If the dirty bit is set when the computer restarts, chkdsk runs to verify the consistency of the volume.

  Whenever you start a computer that is running one of the Windows XP operating system or the Windows Server 2003 family, autochk.exe is called by the kernel for all volumes to check if the volume dirty bit is set. If the dirty bit is set, autochk performs an immediate chkdsk /f on that volume. Chkdsk /f verifies file system integrity and attempts to fix any problems with the volume.

  A simple power interruption is something that could result in a disc was marked as dirty.  Have you had a power failure these days?

  You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window.  Here's how:

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open the command prompt window.

  For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive D, type:

  fsutil dirty query D:

  The sample output:
  Volume D: is dirty
  Volume D: is not dirty

  Type "exit" to close the command prompt window.

  You can not enter any command to clear the dirty bit - only chkdsk /r or chkdsk/p can clear the dirty bit.

  When chkdsk runs automatically restart either because XP thinks he needs to (perhaps your NTFS volume has been marked as dirty) or you decide to schedule the chkdsk with error correction during the next reboot, the results appear in the viewing Application event log.  You should look there for the chkdsk log to see what happened and no problems after running chkdsk.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  Search the Application log for an event originally by Winlogon, something like:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Winlogon
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 1001
  Date: 04/08/2010
  Time: 11:25:57
  Description:

  The dirty bit fade not until chkdsk /r (or chkdsk/p) tracks clean when the system reboots (as in the example) or when you run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console.

  Many times, the best remedy is to just run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console so you can actually see what it does.  Sometimes, this also seems to be the only way to clear the dirty bit and this way you can see what he does.

  Note that you can not also question the bit of impurity of the Recovery Console and you can't turn off the bit of impurity to enter any command.

  If for some reason chkdsk will not erase the dirty, you can simply say XP never check the volume dirty bit, but who will not fix your fault of potentially hard drive, or it could be the drive just need to have chkdsk run on that (sometimes you need to run it more than once) or you will have to think about replacing the drive.

  If you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, you can boot into XP from that (even a SP2) Recovery Console CD will work and run chkdsk /r manually from there and repeat until chkdsk /r is clean.

  If you have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, say so and I'll post instructions so you can make a CD of XP Recovery Console and how to run chkdsk from there.   There is no required XP media.

  I wonder why it is that I have never see an engineer Microsoft Support post instructions on how to make a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console... probably because there is no KB article for them to post.

• I tried to run Check Disk and get an error message on the completion of the phase 2

  I tried to run Check Disk and get an error message on the completion of the phase 2. If I try to run a defrag without having completed verification of the disc it comes up with error message Disk Defragmenter has detected Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the Volume: c.

  How old is the hard drive? It is still under warranty? The easiest way forward is to replace the drive.

• event/application of display screen shows 'Warning' to an entry (after "check disk"), how do I do now?

  Hello-

  After the race "check disk", I went to the visualization/event application screen.  I had a 'warning' / / source, windows search service / / category, Gatherer / / event, 3086. "When I clicked on it, I arrived at the EVENTS AND ERRORS MESSAGE CENTER.  I did a search for 3086, refined by XP pro.  She did an article; When I clicked the link to this article, I came to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931760 (I show the title only because the article is very long) - you can not install Windows XP successfully after you use Windows Vista or Windows PE 2.0 to create partitions on a hard drive on the article has something to do with the creation of partitions , which i know I never did.  more I never had vista installed, and I did not know "windows preinstallation environment 2.0" is.

• Check disk freezes on stage 5? HARD disk errors?

  Hello

  I am sure that my HARD drive has errors on this subject and needs a good Defrag.

  When you perform a check disk with bad sectors recovery option, it always freezes just after starting step 5.

  Without the check be able to complete the errors that I don't think are cannot be fixed properly.

  How can I get it to end?

  Thank you

  Try running a HDD diagnostic of the manufacturer of the drive, then Windows is running.  Most hard disk manufacturers have utility software that can boot from the CD, DVD or USB and HDD test while Windows is not running.  This software may be able to find and fix the problems - but if the problem is severe enough, then it will do no good. But it certainly won't hurt to try.

• Computer runs continuously check disk and automatically goes into power saving mode.

  2 days ago my computer was working fine, then yesterday he wanted to run the check disk at startup upward. Finished, he found no errors and proceeded to vista loading which then stated that he was going to power saving mode, the screen went black and clear screen turned yellow. Now he wants to run the check disk on every restart and ends with her past in power saving mode. I've only got 1 successful start since this all started. I tried to start in safe mode but it freezes. I also tried to boot to the last known configuration but that only prompted an another disk check and ended just as vain as other attempts. The hard drive is only a year so it should not be failing already. I don't know what I should try. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  Hello

  1. have you made changes on the computer recently?

  2. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  Method 1.

  Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator.

  The correct way to disable CHKDSK to start use the on command chkntfs /x switch in command prompt. The /x switch will exclude a verification by default startup car. If you have drive C: as your hard drive, then the command to disable chkdsk C: drive analysis would be:

  chkntfs /x c:

  If you have 2 drives C and D, you can disable chkdsk with the command below

  chkntfs /x c: d:

  So go ahead and restart.

   

  Method 2. 

  Registry warning

  To do: Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

  Here are the steps to disable checkdisk at startup.

  1 - click on the 'Start' menu of Windows on the desktop and click on "Search" (Windows Vista or 7).

  2. Type "regedit" in the search box and press 'Enter' to start recording.

  3 - Click on '+' in the folder 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE' to develop. Click on the 'SYSTEM' folder and click on the folder "CurrentControlSet". Click on the 'Control' folder and then click on the "Session Manager" folder.

  4 double click on 'BootExecute' on the right pane. You should see the default value of the key defined as autocheck autochk * (with asterisk). The asterisk (*) means that the Windows controls every drive for consistency. Add "/ K:C" at the end of the autocheck autochk * after the addition, the final value should look like this: autocheck autochk / k: C *.

  5 - Click on "file" and click "Exit" to close the damper. Restart your computer. The disk check is no longer lance to the computer startup.

  Method 3.

  After the checkdisk has been disabled, I suggest you to reset the power to the control panel settings and check if that helps.
