Conversion of Workstation disks in single file to file

Pre-installed 11 I had a lab of 5.5 ESXi with a disc of multiple files.  There are 226 hard files now 143GB totoalling.  Is there a way to convert this disk multi-fichiers in a single disk file?

Thank you

Hello

Although I wasn't ever. But for this task, you can use Vmware Vdiskmanager utility. You can download it here: -.

  • Conversion disc Split Single File - data loss!

    Hello

    Something strange happened to us today. In order to migrate to VMWARE SERVER 2 to ESXi when necessary to convert expandable virtual disks, divided into 2 GB files into a single file. We used vmware-vdiskmanager - r source.vmdk t 0 destination.vmdk. All conversions went well.

    Once we start a virtual machine, we noticed some missing data. In fact, the content of the virtual mas aged 4 months. We converted 10 virtual machines and happened to us in 4 of them (2 on each server).

    To reproduce the error, I copy vmdk from a backup on the server. I checked for the current data and it was OK. Convert the disc but I keept the original. Once more, the data were missing. I remove disks, created a new and pointed out the OLD records not converted. The data are ALSO missing.

    It was as if the drive was not having published data or something like that. On the other hand, this could be a major bug in the conversion process? (unlikely).

    Any ideas what went wrong?

    You are absolutely sure that there are no snapshots?

    I'm not talking the Snapshot Manager in the GUI. Sometimes, it does not show the shots, even if they are present. I mean the files in the folder of the virtual machine. Can you please send a list of files (ED /oen) and the file vmx of the old virtual machine, which - when you start - shows the current files?

  • When I try to copy a single file (for example: size of 1 GB) drive hard to any what external memory device via the USB port, the copy process takes several hours to complete

    I use a DELL Studio 15 laptop computer. When I try to copy a single file (for example: size of 1 GB) hard drive to any external memory device (for example: USB key or external hard drive) via the port USB, the copy process takes several hours to complete. I have checked the viruses using McAfee Antivirus, but could not find. Can someone suggest me a solution?

    Hello

    ·          Were there any changes made to your computer before this problem?

    Step 1: Format the external device to the NTFS format and check if the problem persists.

  • Restore a single file of a snapshot.

    Please consider a 'backup' every night which is carried out by:

    1. instant comments (suspended)

    2 clone the underlying data store (using "zfs snapshot" in my case that captures all files vmdk/vmsd/vmxf/vswp/lck/nvram/etc)

    3 remove the snapshot.

    Question: How can I go on the recovery of a single file from the file system of comments a few days ago?  I have at my disposal the entire repertoire of the VM from the underlying data store, such as he was cloned (files in point 2 above).  I guess that my options are:

    a. somehow say ESXi to bring up the snapshot taken in step 2.  Say ESXi parallel to the direct guest who is still ongoing.  Say ESXi to bring this backup but without any internet connection, so it does not interact with the network when you restore.  While the backup is in place, the files I need.

    b. somehow, mount the NTFS volume that has been captured in step 2.  This can be difficult if the NFTS volume was spread over several disks hard vmdk (typical 2 TB by-pass)

    c. < your idea here >

    Hi Chris,

    Read my instructions carefully:

    1 clone your current VM. Original VM can be online - only with the right button and clone. (Do not power on the cloned VM) and then get rid of all readers (vmdk) except the system drive.

    2. now mount all vmdk backup where you have the file you want to restore. Of course, you need to get this snapshot on the data store connected to the host.

    3. remove the NIC in the cloned virtual computer and turn it on. Most likely, it will load normally and you will see the previous state and the file you want.

    4. now, the trick is to copy this file to the original virtual machine. Therefore add new disk on the cloned virtual machine.

    5 format the new drive and copy the desired file

    6. remove the cloned VM disk and attach it to the original virtual machine. Copy it.

    And bharathl will not work because you have SPLIT volume through some VMDK. Therefore, you have cloned VM with the same config as original virtual machine.

  • Numbers - how to import external data to a cell in a single file into a new cell in another file?

    Numbers - how to import external data to a cell in a single file into a new cell in another file?

    I want to do the same thing in numbers (3.6.2 (2577) I used to do in Excel (any version):)

    to import a calculation of a cell in a file in a new cell in another file.

    Example: I want to import the result of a sum in a specific cell of my accountant in August to a cell in comparison in my accounting of September.

    It was so easy in Excel. Until the reference computer broke down.

    By the numbers, I tried to copy - paste the contents of the cell formulated, but not good.

    No help manual online or anywhere. I think that maybe the function is absent in number.

    Then I return to MicroSoft Excel, that I have used for many years and I am sorry to say feel much more wysiwyg.

    Formulas in a numbers document cannot reference cells in other documents of numbers.

    "Much more wysiwyg" is another way to express what many of those who "used (MS Excel) for many years" expressed as "more intuitive. These two descriptions usually boil up to ' what I'm used to, ", which is also true in the other sense.

    Whatever the real explanation, the standard advice is "the tool that will do the job." If "the job" requires referencing values in a separate document, the numbers (alone and without the help of AppleScript) are not the best tool for this job.

  • More 1740bytes cannot retrieve cache Firefox12 in Windows7.The files files files can store the maximum size of a single file only 1740bytes?

    I can't get flv (YouTube video) larger files that 1740bytes of Firefox12 in Windows7 cache files, cause whenever I have search in the files, I can only find files with unique maximum file size 1740bytes and video files flv from YouTube are significantly larger than that. So, how can I get it back only the cache YouTube video file?
    But Firefox12 does not have this problem occurs in Windows XP.
    Furthermore, what is the maximum single file size in Firefox12 cache files?

    It has just begun to surface on the Web more. This seems not to be a browser problem, as happens in my opera and IE too. Apparently, YouTube has decided to not let us perceive his videos more and their place is cutting in 1 740 ko somehow files be reconstructed with its own codes when needed to play. Others are also noticed that if you make a pause a video is not going to preload as it used to- but a short distance. No doubt it is pre-configured as a segment of 1 740 both and support even not all except if you look at all this.

  • Scaning several pages in a single file on a 4630

    Using printer HP 4630, windows 8.1, free Wi - Fi.

    You want to scan multiple pages into a single file.

    By the user manual, I work from the computer not the printer.

    When the first page is scanned asks me if I want to save, I click Yes and the filename.

    When I scan second page still wonder if I want to save my file name is, I like it already exists and asks if I want to keep or replace it.

    Whichever one I click, only the second page is saved.

  • Satellite A40-151 started very slow and have hours to transfer a single file

    Hello.

    I've had my A40-151 more than two years now, and up to last month, I got no problems at all. However, last month, it began to be very slow and took hours to initialize. I'm worried that I would lose all the data that I didn't back up, and so I bought an external drive to transfer data.

    As I was doing this, my laptop started making grinding noises, and it took up to 12 hours to transfer a single file. I got to the place, I bought it, and they said it had crashed and that it was not something they could do other than get it back - and so I lost all my data.

    When I came back, it was OK for a few hours and then started grinding again! And I think it might be something to do with the CD/DVD drive. I uninstalled the drive, and the squeaking seems to have stopped as long as the "drawer" player is open! Help, please!

    How can I get the drive replaced? My laptop is no longer under warranty. No I lost everything this that data for nothing?

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Hello

    No, the squeaking is probably from the reader of CD/DVD being dry, while optical rides on squeak track passing. But the long loading is certainly a hard drive problem. Looks like a head crash. The head is more or less what locates and reads/writes data from the HARD drive. When this plant it is unable to read/write/or locate the data on the surface taking more and more to save the data, transfer data and load the operating system. Two problems independent of each other. If your ASP cannot repair the cd that squeaks, then they can replace it one that works normally. I hope this has helped you.
