• Automatic execution of the batch file at the connection of the USB drive

  I created a batch file that checks the drive e. the presence of a specific file, and if there, copy it to a location on the hard drive. (Drive E is where all USB drives see the place through my window of Windows Explorer.) I would like to set up my computer so that this batch file is executed whenever such a device is plugged into the USB port. How can I accomplish that?

  Otherwise, is it possible to incorporate the Attaché-USB-player status in the batch file itself and just leave that batch file running at any time? I used "IF EXISTS E:\*.*", but that is not do me much good, because I have to keep control of this condition again and again, and eventually the batch file gets tired of the audit and said that the drive does not exist.

  Hello

  You can ask your question on the TechNet forums for batch files.

• How to connect an external usb drive to a virtual host

  IM using esxi 4.0 u1, have several virtual hosts running.  I use the vi client to manage, no vcenter.

  I want to connect a drive external hard usb to one of the virtual machines.  How do I do this in vi client?

  Thank you

  Not directly supported in the current version of ESX (i). You can try passthrough. Take a look at the http://vm-help.com for directions. A future version of vSphere will be the real answer.

• How to make a CD available USB drive VMS as a USB under ESXi 5.5

  Hi people:

  I discovered a possible problem with ESXi 5.5 which I hope someone knows a way to get around.  I plugged a USB CD/DVD drive in an ESXi host 5.5 current enforcement in the expectation that I would be able to assign to a virtual machine as a USB device.  However, it has not shown as a USB device is available.  Also, it did not show as a host device that I could assign to a virtual CD/DVD device.  I rebooted the host and then the CD/DVD USB drive present themselves as a host device that I could assign to a virtual CD/DVD device.  Of course, the problem is that I don't want to have to restart the host whenever I want to connect a physical to a virtual machine CD/DVD player, and I don't want to let the reader of CD/DVD USB connected to the host all the time I use it for other things as well (the host has not its own CD/DVD drive).

  So I guess my question is:

  (1) is there a way to say ESXi a newly connected CD/DVD USB drive is intended to be a USB device that can be connected to the virtual machines, or

  (2) is there a way to force rescan USB devices for USB CD/DVD players to demand and available as a host device to be assigned to a virtual CD/DVD device without a restart ESXi?

  I hope that there is some configuration settings, I do not know on which control this behavior.

  Suggestions welcome.

  Ok.  I found the answer.  Guess I didn't have a good enough search until I posted.

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=1027415

  Basically, you need to restart the daemon spend after you have added the device USB CD/DVD:

  restart the /etc/init.d/hostd

  from the console service.  Which causes ESXi to rescan USB devices and CD/DVD USB drive is available to be mapped as a host device on a virtual CD drive of the virtual machine.  It is not as good as to be able to use it immediately, but at least it does not require the host be restarted each time.

• Help move my datastore on external USB drive to reformat with correct block size

  Hello

  I use a Dell PowerEdge 2650 with a 550 GB disks configured in RAID 5 with ESX 3.5i

  When I installed ESX I didn't pay attention to the size of the block. This is the default 1 MB and so I reached the maximum extends. Which means that I can receive only 260 GB on my 550 GB.

  I need to change the parameter to a block size of 4 MB in order to access the entire table.

  But for this I need to move my existing data store that contains a lot of important files for me.

  I have not any currenty server with 260/300 GB of free space.

  I'll try the following:

  1. connect an external USB drive. I have ssh running, but I'm having difficulties to climb. I looked for info, but I am always sick.

  2. If possible, I would like to compress using gzip great records in my data store before moving. Can advise you on the location of the files in the system and if it is possible to do?

  Thank you

  Chris

  It is clear now,

  in this case if your VM's you buy a big enough hard drive 250 GB single VMDK file to copy all virtual machine configuration, not he zip or compress, you can screw all of the data on disk

  I have an idea, depends on the amount of data you have on your virtual hard disk, you can use VMware converter 4.0.1 and clone your VM with discs thin provision, Vmware converter will be "zipp" your VMDK file to the exact size of your data without any risk that would have lost you all your data.

  1 use vmware converter to clone your VM with discs thin provisioned

  2. low source VM

  3. start the VM 'new' and check if it works well

  4. If 4 is OK, stop VM 'nine '.

  5. copy the new virtual machine on your USB key (set the USB you your workstation and you winscp to copy the virtual machine)

  6 remove VMFS datastore

  7. create the new VMFS datastore

  8 download VM to the new data store

  9. creating the new virtual machine based on a VMDK file

  10. start the virtual machine

  see you soon

• May VMWrkSttn7 on 64 bit-Win7Prof, run vhd on external seagate 500 GB USB drive

  Hi I'm new to this vm world... Please bear w / my crawl on all fours

  I have hp dv8t 64 bit Win 7 Professnl of 2 x 500 GB = internal hard drives 1 & 4 GB Ram & i7 720qm processor image

  I intend to install vmworkstation 7 on laptop to install the following:

  < 1 > workstation windows - 32-bit win2k3 server on internal hard drives
  < 2 > OEL5 workstation - Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 64 bit on external seagate 500 GB HDD USB drive

  When creating the virtual machine, is it possible for a chosen to create a virtual hard disk (vhd), allocate all the space 500 GB in a *.vhd file save on this external hard drive and then install whatever I want OEL5 (o/s) and other applications on linux?

  I use the hp USB wireless mouse & say that I could take in others transcend usb xGB drives in other passers-by while having this key external seagate 500 GB USB connected.

  USB drive letters will cause confusion to the VMworkstation whenever I have extra USB drives connected?

  I really appreciate your thoughts and especially time.

  Thank you

  Vee

  First Workstation uses the vmdk files - vhd is a different format.

  If you create your Oracle VM you must create it directly on the USB drive - this means in the vmx-file - a relative path to the vmdk (the VM configuration) can be used.

  This means that you can plug this disc to another host and still use it.

  Don't worry driveletters.

  Resemble the vmx-line that gives the path to the disk

  scsi0.0.filename = "oracle.vmdk".

  Do not fill the USB drive more so let say 90% or you will get poor performance

• How to set up Time Machine via a HARD drive connected to the USB port on the router?

  Hi all

  I have an Arris Touchstone Data Gateway DG1670A/TW for my internet / wireless which was provided by my ISP.  There is a USB port at the back of the router and I was wondering if I could connect an external HARD drive to save the two Macbook Pro that I have in my house through Time Machine wireless?  If Yes, could someone provide me the details regarding how to set this up properly?

  I too, was thinking about making a 4 TB HARD drive - 2 and wanted to partition so that half of it would work for Time Machine and the other half I would be able to store photos that I take on my digital SLR and are in Lightroom.  Could this be a problem at all? I partition? or Time Machine just to use the available space and delete older backups to make room for additional photos?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  A device third-party network attached storage (NAS) or a router is unsuitable for use with Time Machine.

  Apple has published a specification for network devices that works with Time Machine. No third party provider, AFAIK, does meet this specification.

  Apple does not endorse any device third-party network for use with Time Machine. See this support article.

  Network backup, use as destination an Apple Time Capsule or an external storage device connected to another Mac or a 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only 802.11ac base stations support time Machine, not older model.

• How to see files on a connected USB drive

  I bought a

  GooDGo (TM) 30 pins for cable Charge USB Host OTG synchronization for iPad adapter 1/2/3 white

  which is a connector to a female USB 30 pin, supposedly it allows you to connect the USB storage device to the iPad. That do I do on iOS to see everything that is on the USB card I attach, and what formatting should have the USB adapter to work? I would copy the video content from my Mac to a USB drive and see the videos on my iPad.

  You need to trick your iPad by seeing these files as if they were on a camera

  Give your video files to a name of 8 characters. This mimicks a camera; s naming protocol. MOV_1244.MP4 example

  Place these files in a folder named DCIM

  Plug your USB into the USB connector (which may or may not work as number of USB drives also requires a lot of power of the iPad so trigger a warning ' device requires too much power "and the USB will not connect)

  Open the photos app (it may or may not open automatically)

  The last time I tried this I could not see the names of files, just the files were there. I had to import them into my iPad via the import of the photo app tab.

  Then try to look through the photos app, which should trigger the video application to open and you can see your video.

  This work is also based on the videos being coded in a way that the iPad is going to play, you have enough space to import their and it still works as it did the last time I tried it a few years ago.

• Info volume cRIO 9030 to connected USB drive

  I want to display the available disk space for a USB stick plugged into a cRIO-9030 running Linux Realtime (path to the drive is/u).  It is a data logging application that can run for a month with users looking only to see that things are run OK, which they won't if disk space wears.  I tried to get information of Volume and the file Info screws, but both give me nonsense values.  It seems that the Volume of information VI get always reports on the internal disk (/ C) any way I use, I can't see how much space I have on the drive/u.  I plugged into different USB drives with different capacities and free amount, but I still get the same values of the VI, which differ from what MAX brings to the reader/c, but are the closest values for this player than anything else.  I also get a useless value of the VI of information from file/Direcory, which seems to be pointing out how many files is at the root of the drive, not its quality or its free space.  Any suggestions about how to get free space and capacity of a USB key connected to the cRIO?

  Odd. I just tried this on my own target RT Linux (running LVRT 2014) and it seems to work as you expect, where to get the Volume information on ' / u ' returns the available space on the Flash DRIVE and is certainly different from what I get from the internal drive. I see a bug (?) where there's just ' / ' was not taken in charge, what should be on Linux:

  

  / (or/u) u is actually a symbolic link to where the drive is actually mounted as/media/sda1 or/media/sdc1. (/ u is provided as a convenience of compatibility for porting the applications of Phar Lap or VxWorks.) You get the same result using the actual mounting location? You have access to a shell to the target? If so, that shows "df"?

• USB 3.0 connecting high-speed USB 2.0 drive

  I have a Western Digital 1 TB USB 3.0 external hard drive. I connect it to the USB 3.0 port (blue) on my laptop Acer Aspire 5755-6647, who works under Windows 7 x 64.

  When you connect, I get the "this device can perform faster: this USB mass storage device can transfer information faster if you connect it to a Super Speed USB 3.0 port" message. When you copy files to the drive, I get about 32 MB/s, which corresponds to a USB 2.0 speed.

  I tried to disable the USB power management in the utility USB 3.0 host controller. I tried to uninstall the device and put it back. I'm using the cable supplied with the disc and is a USB 3.0 cable. I have the latest Renesas USB 3.0 driver installed (2.0.34.0). I also tried to use an older driver from Renesas. My BIOS is updated (P5WE0121).

  I don't know what else to do. If it helps, the first time I have connected my laptop hard drive, it's on a USB 2.0 port (I had for some reason any remembered which side of the laptop had the port 3.0 and does not check for blue). As I have said, however, I completely uninstalled the device. I suspect that Windows can be "remember" the device and install with the 2.0 driver.

  Update: I finally try one last thing before you go to Acer support. I thought that perhaps not enough power provided by my USB 3.0 port on the drive, forcing him to 'downgrade' 2.0. So I bought a cable to Yfor $5 to offer auxiliary power of the adjacent 2.0 port. Result: IT WORKS. Immediately connected as a USB 3.0 peripheral speed and transfer is USB 3.0.

  Solved. A little disappointed with the Acer/Intel for the USB 3.0 under normal, however.

• Windows detected new hardware wizard appears each time I try to connect an external hard drive via the USB port.

  Whenever I try to connect an external hard drive into a USB port, Windows detected new hardware wizard will appear. He then not recognize the external drive at all. It does not appear in disk management. In Device Manager, it is listed as a 'device' USB bus controllers not. Under "other devices", there the question mark yellow and says the device is not configured correctly (code 1). External hard drive works fine on other PCs. It's a plug-and-play device. Port and USB cable work fine with other devices. Just this external hard drive has never worked on this PC.

  Hello

  I suggest that you try to remove USB controllers to the clean boot state and control.

• XP hangs after connecting an external hard drive via USB port

  When I connect an external hard drive of 250GB via a USB port on my system XP - SP3, the computer crashes immediately after the sound signal from the recognition of a normal connection PnP. There is no assignment of the station. I don't know that he had worked as can be expected before. A new 500 GB external hard drive is recognized as new hardware, the driver installed and ready to use, but after that, the PC shuts down completely new. However, when I do a system startup after connection of the same two drives, everything looks OK. Also, no problem with a USB stick of 2 GB. How to find what's the problem?

  Well - it's Windows for you, sometimes. :/

  Good luck with your new installation!

• When you connect 1 or several external USB drives, why is the letter a * shoot?

  When you connect 1 or several external USB drives, why is the letter a * shoot? Referencing external drives through library (Windows V7) becomes a really shiny, totally useless feature without consistency of drive letter. Or unnecessary to be a design goal? I almost had it still works but who finally to 3 minutes). What it will take to make useful new features?

  Windows assigns the first available on the first hard drive connected and one drive letter to another and so on.  Always has, always will. What will help sometimes (but), is to open disk from an elevated command prompt management and adversely affect permanent a letter from your external drive which is much higher than the letters in use.  This will often allow the will to keep a letter.
