convert from Slackware Linux or just copy - move?

I have a 2003 server running Vmware Server 2.0 and host 2 virtual machines running on an older piece of HW Slackware 12.

I tried a few times to different / medium using a converter, but said "Re:"Unable to Obtain hardware information for the computer selected""failed to get hardware information for the selected computer "."

Newspapers do not give me much to do.

Tried with vm/disable

Tried with older converter, I could find 6 5.5 and newer.

Maybe I go about it the wrong way.  What Miss me?

can I copy/move the folder with some hacks?

These two errors are similar: FILE: FileIO_Lock on "... \NS1-000001.vmdk' failed: lock has expired"

Are you trying to convert machines running? This is not possible, you should treat them as on sources or stop and then convert them.

    You can not!  iTunes movies are DRM protected and can only be read

    through iTunes on a computer authorized Apple ID or an iDevice.

    This is somewhat true for any service of films and is part of licensing

    agreements with movie studios.

    I'm sorry.

    However, you can get some kind of cable adapter for your computer or your iDevice

    (depends on what you want to use and what your connection to) and connect it to the

    I'm not 100% sure, but I suppose your P30 has no Video IN port. Am I wrong?
    If Yes, then you must buy an external device to transfer audio and video data. If you have the time check http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/de/Home/

  • Personal project: convert with VM Linux host to vSphere Hypervisor

    Hello

    I have been using VMware Workstation for some years both for personal and professional purposes.

    I would like to convert my Linux host with multiple virtual machines to vSphere Hypervisor server with all my existing virtual machines and data.

    I currently have a Ubuntu 10.10 desktop on which I run Workstation 8 to host multiple virtual machines to Linux as a WebSphere Portal cluster (LDAP, DB2, ND, Portal 2 nodes). I also use it to host a VortexBox VM that contains my music collection. The audio files are not in the hard of the VortexBox, but are accessed through a sharing of the host folder. I have also several years of photos and documents on the host system.

    The material consists of:

    Motherboard Asus M4A785TD-V

    Corsair XMS3 16 GB

    Intel PWLA8391GTBLK PRO/1000 GT Desktop Network adapt

    1 x Hitachi 1 TB (empty)

    1 x Seagate 160 GB (photos, video)

    2 x Seagate 300 GB (Ubuntu, music, data, VMs)

    I am very new to vSphere. What I did was install vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi 5) on a USB 8 GB on the above system and created a store of data of the 1 TB drive.

    I also installed vSphere Client on a virtual Windows XP machine running on my MacBook; that I used to create the data store.

    Can someone provide measures of high level on how to proceed?

    I have an external hard drive on which I can copy existing virtual machines to deploy to the host of vSphere through Workstation 8.

    My main concern is the best way to keep my collection of music/photo/video to make it accessible by the VM VortexBox.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Miguel

    ' Copy the VMs convert to another system so that I can deploy to the area of ESXi? Or is there a way to locate the VMs converted from the ESXi host (via vSphere Client) and deploy? »

    ESXi must work so that the converter convert and move them to ESXi. Since it is the same dialog that VMware Workstation works on, it would mean that Ubuntu and workstation are turned off. You convert the raw files to workstation (which takes care of the tool). This will probably mean temporarily copy workstation virtual machine files to a temporary location.

    "What is the advantage of the use of VMware Converter instead of use the VMware Workstation 8 to download the virtual machines on the ESXi host?"

    Eventually no matter. But remember that since ESXi must be executed, you can have the two ESXi running AND Ubuntu/workstation at the same time on the same box, so in your case, wouldn't be able to do this. Another option exports all the VMS to the models of the FVO (for an external HARD drive), and then once ESXi is running, import the OVFs.

    "I like the point that do you on a VM file server. If I decide to implement this option, I would be able to connect to the existing hard disks on the ESXi host without having to reformat, to preserve my data (music, photos, videos, docs, etc.)? Any recommendations? "

    Although it is technically possible to have a linux format hard drive visible to virtual machines (such as a ROW), it is very unusual and massively overcomplicates things. The best thing to do would be to move the data on the hard drive temporarily, format them as VMFS data stores and then only move the data back ontop readers in a virtual hard drive. To do this way, you get all the benefits of virtualization (eg. being able to easily move this virtual hard disk on different volumes and attach easily to different virtual machines, etc.). It's a little pain in the short term, but the long-term gain.

    «I'm assuming that a VM file server would be different from a NAS VM, as I have to format disks in file system regardless of the SIN in the SIN prefer (I saw a YouTube video describing FreeNAS).»

    A NAS and file server are essentially the same. There is nothing more an operating system that data sharing. They all use the same protocol for sharing (samba, CIFS, iSCSI, etc.), so it does not matter in general. But yes, typically performance based most NAS on Linux OSs, so yes, it's finally sitting on a file system (ext2/3/4) of Linux. Which shouldn't matter however, as long as your other machines can access the data. If I were you, I would buy a consumer NAS (which will offer more storage and can be extended), or configure a simple VM (like FreeNAS or other) and just give him a big a VHD.

  • How copy/paste or copy/move a file to another folder in Windows XP

    I need to copy/paste or copy/move the files from one folder to program existing to another folder.

    Use the movement commands to copy do?

    Hi Jimmyjack1941,

    I suggest you to read the following articles for more information.

    These are the items if you use the Windows Explorer to perform operations:

    To copy a file or folder

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/windows_fcab_copy_file.mspx?mfr=true

    To move a file or folder

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/windows_fcab_move_files.mspx?mfr=true

    You can follow these commands to move and rename the file or folder using the command prompt:

    Moves files and renames files and directories.

    To move one or more files:
    MOVE [/Y | /-Y] [drive:] [path] file1 [,...] destination

    To rename a directory:
    MOVE [/Y | /-Y] [drive:] [path] dirname1 repert2

    [drive:] [path] file1

    Specifies the location and name of the file or files you want to move.

    destination

    Specifies the new location of the file. Destination can consist of a drive letter and colon, a directory name, or a combination. If you move a single file, you can also include a file name if you want to rename the file when you move it.

    [drive:] [path] dirname1

    Specifies the directory you want to rename.

    repert2

    Specifies the new name of the directory.

    /Y

    Deletes the request for confirmation that you want to replace an existing destination file.

    Y

    Causes of request for confirmation that you want to replace an existing destination file.

    The switch /Y may be present in the COPYCMD environment variable. This can be derived with / y on the command line. Default value is quick to replace unless is running of command MOVE within a command script.

    Example:

    move c:\windows\temp\*.* c:\temp

    Move the temporary directory c:\windows\temp files in the root, this is of course assuming you have the windows\temp folder.

    Note: Microsoft does not move the files/folders installed application.

    Hope this information helps.

  • 12 items "copy/move to the removable disk.

    The base case # 185684196, support phone donated last year, the problem persists.  12 items on my desktop PC (Windows 7, 64-bit) - I import photo in the Organizer, card camera (Nikon RAW files), and THEN use the function ' Copy/move to removable disk' to move these files to an external hard drive (RAID 1 configuration) for permanent storage.  When I run this process, initially, it moves the files to the disk of destination - then a dialog asks (about): are you sure you want to delete these files? (of the Office Unit) - I click on 'Yes' - a progress bar works - and almost finished, the process fails "organizing elements - year error occurred while reading files or writing files to disk."  The drive is may be full, or there may be a problem with the source media. "In fact, there is a large amount of disk space on the destination drive.  My wife and I use (for many years) this program for semi-professional use.  It is CRITICAL to avoid any corruption - indexing / connection between the miniature Organizer reference images and the image stored outside files MUST be properly maintained.  What is causing this error message, what needs to be done to solve the problem?  I have the couple of times when this has happened, I went on the storage disk, delete manually imported just files, run the process - and, for this 2nd attempt, the process completed successfully.  Of course, this isn't a long-term solution, nor a procedure appropriate - and I always worry a sort of corruption may be introduced-, please notify the right solution.  Also - I have been informed and practice, not allowing the catalog to grow beyond 5 000 images (I began a new catalogue).  With the current batch of photos, I'm importing (more than 300 images), I get also a message "notice" to save the catalog - something I think I'll make to an another external drive, for redundancy even beyond the present RAID 1 storage - however, this solves the problem, I ask you to help

    It then I need my glasses!

    I would recommend lance the Downloader of the Organizer (Ctrl + G) and in the Advanced dialog box, select your device (camera OR card reader) and choosing your external hard drive rather than the C: drive or another volume internal. See the image below.

    Who will get all your images to their final destination without any move/copy of the files or folders.

    Which means less chance of damaged files or broken links database. It will also be a more efficient workflow.

    NB. it is always useful when you use external hard drives to keep connected to the same USB port. Also keep a backup on a secondary device because these external drives are extremely susceptible to failure.

  • With the help of files from a Linux saved / home folder hierarchy, how can I get these bookmarks in new installation?

    Prior to this announcement, I read the information available on import-export-backup but unfortunately, I became very confused.

    Location:

    On my PC at home, I backed up my Ubuntu + Mint/home folder [dual-booting to installation] trees on a flash drive. In the two Ubuntu + Mint, I used Firefox 3.6.3

    Now, I installed Mint with Firefox 3.6.3 on a new hard drive.

    In my new installation of mint + Firefox, how to use the files in my backup folder trees / home to give my new Firefox these same bookmarks?

    I have never "exported" or "supported" My Favorites; I just copied my trees set/home folder on a flash drive, assuming that the files would be there when I need them. I see a bookmarks.html file in my new installation, but it seems only toolbar links and not a few bookmarks, I created in the past days. And I don't know what to do with the file "places.sqlite".

    Should I find "places.sqlite" files in the backup folder tree / home and copy / paste them somewhere on the new hard drive?

    I didn't want to risk experimenting this - could hurt!

    Thank you very much.

    Firefox 3 and later no longer use bookmarks.html to store bookmarks.

    You can restore latest JSON bookmarks in the folder bookmarkbackups or copy places.sqlite on current Firefox profile. Both methods will replace the current bookmarks with the new bookmarks, so I you must preserve existing bookmarks and then export them to a HTML file and import this file later.

  • Change of file server (during the copy/move)

    Hello everyone!

    I have a problem with the change of ownership of file on network shares.

    Namely, we have several (important) CIFS shares on our NetApp storage systems where the native (user) management quota is based on the file ownership. We intend to use this quota management for automation purposes, but the problem is that our analysis has shown that the owner of most of the files on these actions is - administrator. It is an unfortunate outcome of scripts hurt of the past and we need to remedy this situation.

    After much thought and keeping the overall complexity of the structure of folders in mind, it became apparent that the ideal solution would be to have users copy/move the files they need their old stocks of those newly created - and at the same time - network have the property for each file copied/moved, change somehow 'in flight' so to speak.

    Is this possible? Moving files to a volumeNTFS, on another volume, where ownhership is set to be inherited is possible - but this is CIFS shares , and it does not work.

    I googled the subject, but so far without success.

    I admit that I'm perplexed.  Any ideas are more than welcome!

    Thank you
