Copy files from my computer to a host ESX 3.5

Hello

Relatively new to the naked ESX Server with me on this one. I built on an ESX host with the intent to use it to restore an Exchange mailbox for one of our users. I have 3 comments of the machine (a domain controller, an exchange server and a vista client to reconnect the mailbox). I have those 3 vms on a single internal vSwitch. The problem is that the Exchange database files that I restored are sitting in a folder on our production network. My question is, how do I copy these files to the vm of the exchange on my host ESX Server? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

There are two ways you could do this.

You can add a second vnic to the Vista client. the vnic would uplink for a vswitch with access to the network of prod. Give the client Vista a static IP from the network of production on the new vnic and copy files on via SMB (i.e.
prodserver\c$ \somepathwheremyfilesare\)

You can also set up a temporary virtual router (http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-9617)

Or I guess you can burn the files to an ISO then transfer the ISO in a data store on the ESX host and then mount the ISo as a CD image (don't forget to clear the bit read only)

    I am running Windows 7 and I have a batch file to copy files from 1 computer to another.  It works fine alone, but when I put it to run in the Task Scheduler it shows it ends successfully, but nothing is happening.  None of the files are copied, and the control box does not appear.  Any ideas?

    Hello ITGIRL17,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    Configure your task under your administrator account.
    Then go to the folder with the batch file and ADD on control for the folder administrator permissions and each of the files in batches.
    If the batch files write data, then the target for the task should ALSO have all explicit permissions.
    Now try to run the Task Scheduler task.

    Also check the information from the following link and look specifically at Brian Vandemark Sommaire steps on 2 September.

  • Error code 0 x 8007052 when copying files from your computer to a memory stick

    Original title: error code 0 x 8007052

    Hi, I'm copying pictures on a memory stick.  About half were copied everywhere but now I get the above error code and the remaining will not pass.  Any ideas, thanks

    Hi Mary,

    If I understand correctly you get an error code when you try to copy files to a memory stick. I'll certainly try and help you get the problem solved. However, until we start could you give us some more information?

    1. when the last time you were able to copy files to the memory stick without any problem?

    2. you have any security program installed on the computer?

    3. are you aware of any recent software or hardware on the computer changes?

    You can download and install the package of the article and check if it helps. If the problem persists, you can start the computer in a clean boot State, and then try to copy the files. Clean boot helps eliminate any conflict of third party software.

    Note: Once the diagnosis is made, follow step 3 of section to configure the computer to start the Normal start.

    Hope this information was helpful and let us know if you need help in the future about Windows. We will be happy to help you.

  • Copy a file from one computer to another

    Hi all

    I am trying to copy a file from a computer (where I program CVI) to another computer on the same network. How do I do? Can I use library functions plug supplied by C or y at - it of the other libraries available in labwindows?

    Thank you

    Kanu

    CopyFile () in the library of the utility accepts UNC paths, so you can do something like this:

    CopyFile ("MyFile.txt", "\\\remotePC\\remoteFolder\\myfile.txt");

    Avoid conflicts between this function and the corresponding Windows API function with the same name: read the online help for explanations.

    Simpler is better, don't you think?

    Select the drive in the Finder and select the get info in the file menu.

    If it is the Windows NT file system format, install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer or reformat the hard disk.

    If it's in a different format, choose Utilities in the Finder Go menu, open disk utility and use the repair disk function or first aid in this regard.

    Hello

    1. What is the full error message?

    2. what operating system is installed on the computer?

    3 did you changes to the computer before the show?

    4. What are the names of files and the exact location of the files you are trying to copy?

    Note: Format deletes the data on the disk. Be sure to back up data before the format.

      

    Method 2: You can check the external E drive to find errors.

    Hello

    The format of the files you want to copy basically described what kind of files they are. Word documents, of .mpg, jpeg, etc.
    However, it seems that the problem is with the drive itself, not individual files.

    You happen to have any installed Roxio program? Specifically, Roxio Easy CD Creator?
    If so, you should remove this program, restart the computer and try again.

  • How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive?

    How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive without losing the connection to the files audio orig.?

    Thank you for your time,

    Since no one answered my call, I sat and researched and studied WaveBurner behavior and I can myself answer my question and solve. Since there were a lot of people asking similar questions on WaveBurner files I will post what I learned.

    Whenever you drop your audio files in the list window to make your WaveBurner CD copy not copy your audio files, but relies on the original audio file, where they are located. So whenever you move the files orig. and you open WaveBurner, it can't find those and displays an error window to suggest it will search for the missing file or if you know where he is now lets you find manually. WaveBurner usually place the .wb3 project file that contains everything including your home folder.

    For this reason, I reserve now an audio file WaveBurner also folder in my home folder. In order to save themselves from WaveBurner cannot find the audio file, all audio files that I do, I put in my folder of audio files WaveBurner first, then copy them in WaveBurner from there.

    When I need to use a bigger hard drive I copy .wb3-WaveBurner projects based, but also my

    Sound folder WaveBurner for the home folder on the new hard drive.

    WaveBurner is now all audio files without problem.

    I hope that this will be a unique problem to someone else. Happy WaveBurning.

    Im trying to delete a file from my computer to free up space sum but when I go to delete it is impossible to delete the file "C:\6ace0ee039abdce9ea240" said. Nothings lock or something. So I don't know what can someone give me an overview of sum?

    This is most likely a temporary file created by a security or other Windows update.  Restart the PC and see if you can delete it then.  If this isn't the case, then you may want to assess the question to seize the property and removing against evil, it could cause if it isn't a vestige.  In addition, he is unlikely to win a significant amount of disk space, clean as you do only puts off the coast of the inevitable hard drive upgrade - if the drive is full, get a larger.
