Conversion of HD Ide HD SCSI please help (merger of VM)

Hello

Im trying to change the size of your hard drive on my virtual machine but I am not able to do. Ive spent the last two days, but as im getting my hands dirty with stuff I don't know im sucks not bad loses everything as I don't even have a snapshot. I would appreciate if someone already made something similar they and can point me in the right direction. I lost 2 days on something im which should be very easy according to some of the examples seen, very frustrated as his shots so ive long and im still not reached, please help so much.

Some of the examples;

http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1016192

The pair name / value mentioned in the article is not im my files

http://sanbarrow.com/VMDK/VMX-ide2scsi.html

Seems to be just too easy and it mentions the geometry, once again these name value pairs are not in my .vmx file

With respect to geometry, I created an another VM with the new required parameters so I can copy the geometry, but once again these name value pairs are not in the .vmx file.

http://blog.creonfx.com/Linux/HOWTO-convert-VMware-Windows-XP-IDE-disk-to-LsiLogic-SCSI

Here's another one, I don't know where and how these commands.

Any help much appreciated.

I found a few posts that said the same thing about not being able to change the size of the disk if im using IDE.

It is absolutely quite wrong!

If a virtual disk is IDE or SCSI is irrelevant when it comes to resize the disk.  Our concern is that there may be any snapshots and you cannot resize a disc down once it has been partitioned/formatted and the guest operating system installed only resized to the top.

  • Conversion of MS Exchange Server disk from IDE to SCSI blue screens

    Nice day

    We are running a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 on a virtual machine in Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition on VMWare vSphere 5.1.0 with the following discs:

    1 C: / Capacity 50 GB space free 22.5 GB (OS)

    2 E: / 600 GB capacity, free 291 (Exchange database) GB space

    3 F: / 360 GB capacity, space free 146 GB (Log files)

    All of these disks are IDE and try to change in SCSI, we made a clone of Exchange running and to turn the server works smoothly, then IDE.

    Because the Exchange running is still active, the clone is assigned an IP address outside of the vlan operational and is able to start and to flow normally, although some services, requiring probably the DNS do not start.

    To work towards a smooth conversion, we changed all the Services of MS Exchange Server in manual start mode and followed the guidelines that provide by the link: VMware KB: conversion of a virtual IDE disk to a virtual SCSI disk

    The same steps had previously worked for our virtual machine running Sage ACCPAC, but for the Exchange, immediately after changing SCSI drives and the switching on of the machine it blue screens and returns the message that we run a startup repair or start Windows normally.

    As there is just no image to us for this and Windows starting is normally on the screen even in failed attempts to run a startup repair.

    Anyone who has managed to convert a disk Server MS Exchange VM to IDE SCSI, kindly help what to do even if with off the server always returns the same error messages.

    Assuming that the manual conversion is ok and the virtual controller selected to add the LSI Logic SAS as mentioned by tomtom901, you may still be missing appropriate drivers in Windows. In order to inject the required driver, or temporarily add another disk virtual SCSI connected to a controller LSI Logic SAS before changing records virtual or secret the data first disks, make sure the VM powers on and load the drivers and then convert the drive system in a second step.

    PS: I removed your duplicate post in the forum of converter. Hope that's ok with you?

    Hello! I do a menu print of tarp for a round table, I did this from ms word since I have no idea where can we make a semicircle menu upside. My problem is that it has a very low resolution, please help me how to print possibly with 3' round table. Thank you

    Oh dear.  It turned into a terrible mess of a thread with opinions and advice.    You do your layout with Word.  In my experience, Word is a nightmare when it comes to positioning many areas of text and images.

    You shouldn't have changed the Word document in a JPG file, because the text all which perfectly progressive, which would be printed to "all" size without loss of image quality, then became an image file.  But if you "had" to make it a JPG, just about the worst possible way to do this is with the Snipping Tool, because the resulting image would have only the resolution of your computer screen.  Dows following?

    How big are the pictures you used in Word?  They probably didn't need to be very large, because each image is only an impression at a relatively small size.

    First thing to try is to open the Word Document and save in PDF format using the Standard option (after you select Save as PDF

    It will keep the text in the form of scalable vector objects which allows printing at any size.  However, I don't have the knowledge of how Word uses images.  I just did a little test, and while I could zoom in to see in the text, I'm not sure that the same is true of the images.  Depends on word refers to the image of the player, or he brings as an object of frame size, and I suspect it's the latter.  You need to do some research on it, because it might make you save a lot of time.

    You have Publisher?  Editor certainly reference the drive images, and friezer downsize to fit the page.  I suspect that you can import a Word into Publisher document, which would put you best part of the way with it.  I would like to test it, but I use it as a loyal user of Adobe InDesign.   If you are forced to restart, then editor or InDesign would be lot better, but it's doable with Photohop.  Just make sure that you start with enough pixels, which means 36 inches at 300 dpi or 10 000 square pixels.  When did save as PDF using the preset high quality printing, and ask your color printer (probably just use sRGB)

    Good luck

  • I'm trying to restore my bookmarks from a json file, but I get "WARNING: script is not responding - Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js:3580 ' message - please help

    I have no idea why will not restore my favorites. I am convinced that I even tried to reconstitute their at the time of the creation of the JSON to make sure they worked, and after that I was confident I left for a month or two then tried to recover, but it does not at all. I get the Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js:3580 (script error unresponsive GSM) and if I click on continue or stop the bookmarks do not change their script. Please help - there are many favorites it I was counting on.

    I tried all the suggestions several times and nothing worked. I don't know if it's me or FF.
    Since none of the new backups worked, I went to my computer corrupted and copied the backup file of bookmark on a USB key. Then I stuck on my desktop. Went to 'restore backups', then to choose the file, then on the desktop. Fact. All bookmarks are copied in half a second.
    Problem solved, and I know what to do if it happens again. Trick is to remember.

    Recovery wipe data, Yes.

    If recovery option can access the OS (and your account), it may apply to you if you want to back up your data before recovery - should you be offered the option, say Yes.

    I'm not sure (given the odd circumstances) if there will be problems getting later for (backup) data.  But if asked, say that you want to backup.

    Good luck.

    Finally, when you get the computer working again, consider using history file to backup your data on an external drive.  History of the available files on Windows 8 and above.

    If you haven't synced the iPod, or create a backup and have forgotten your password, your only option to get the device working again is to restore. However, as you seem to be aware, it will remove all of your content.

    If you can not lose your data, you should have been save. You will need to restore and then synchronize any return, you may have. Otherwise, the data is lost.  If you have forgotten the password for your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple supports
