Copy-hard drive when you are connected to vCenter

Y at - it a command to copy a virtual disk when you are connected to the server vCenter instead of being directly connected to each ESX Server?

Thank you

KeV

You can use the cmdlet Copy-DatastoreItem but there are a few known issues with this cmdlet when the current generation.

Or you can use the underlying CopyDatastoreFile_Task method.

Note that you need to copy all the files (header & flat file) that make up a vDisk yourself!

  • Perform a hard reset when you are connected to the computer?

    Hello

    my iPod Touch G 6 seems to have momentarily buggy so I connected it to the computer, after he had died and needed a charge. He didn't start the loading of the iPod screen, so I did a hard reset while it was still connected to the computer. When he turned his back, I had to enter the password on the iPod to unlock the screen before you start synchronizing with the computer.

    Desire to do harm to the iPod? I accidentally unplugged before ejecting several times, so I'm just scared.

    Thank you

    Jesse

    You have no damage to the iPod. If you disconnect the iPod is communicating with the computer, then you can alter the iPod and a restoration will probably be necessary,

  • Internet goes when you are connected to wifi

    Bought an iMac on eBay this week, works fine apart from a problem I encounter with internet stall, which really starts to get boring!

    It's an iMac, mid-2011, with OS X el Capitan 10.11.3 installed and put to update to the most recent update.

    The question...

    When you are connected to our home network (Sky Broadband) I get internet access for 5 minutes for an hour then stop him internet but the wifi is connected. At this point if I check all other computers/phones/tablets on the network that they are all still connected to the internet with absolutely no problem.

    The temporary solution...

    If I disable the wifi on my iMac and then back on again once it reconnects immediately and internet works fine still a time - until it stops!

    What I tried...

    Restart the mac repeatedly

    Restarted the router again

    In network settings, advanced on the mac, I renewed the DHCP lease (loads of times - note it always seems to come back with exactly the same ip address - I guess it's good?), updated the DNS (last post I read said to use 2.4.4.2 so am currently on that), tried to manually set the MTU to 1453, I deleted all the other networks stored outside my home network Too much.

    Does anyone have any suggestions please for all messages that have worked for them, or things that I could try?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    Did you erase the internal drive and install OS X yourself? Did you run the hardware test? If this isn't the case, please do both.

    How to format a hard drive when you're locked volume popups?

    Looks like you are trying to format the disk that contains the system volume of in WinXP.  You can not.  It would be the computer equivalent of sawing off the branch of the tree, you sit and WinXP is "too smart" to enable this.

    After saving all the data you want to transfer to the new installation of the OS, simply boot from the Windows XP installation CD.  You will be offered the possibility to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the installation process. (You may need to rearrange the order of the boot devices in the PC BIOS to boot from the CD.)

    Why the last OS update cost me gigabytes of data when you are connected directly to my computer and ISP via Itunes.  29 February 2016

    While it is connected to ITunes via my Dell system, I was informed of the latest OS update for my IPhone 6.  I decided that the direct connection to the internet would be the fastest way to download and install the software.  During the process I started to have some warning of our AT & T account that I approach the limit of our data plan, then in quick succession, only warnings, said I've reached the limit and then passed in the data, limit charges.  At the time it was done, I had accumulated more than 2 gigabytes of additional data charges.

    Until that point, I was very pleased with the device and confident in the ability to use Wifi and data.  Due to this incident, I became very suspicious of the camera and the huge potential for data overcharges. It is extremely disconcerting as it happened while it is directly connected to the internet using my computer at home.

    Please note that, in the episode my ISP and the computer is remained connected to the WEB with no sign of connectivity issues.

    Someone at - he had a similar experience and understand what went wrong?

    Thanks for your support,

    You have chosen the option of direct download, you have received a message of warning from AT & T about it yet.

  • How can I get Windows Server 2012 Essentials recognize my HARD drive when you turn an external HARD drive in a drive HARD internal storage?

    I recently had a pool of storage space using 3 external drives USB 3.0 in Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  I decided to take the readers out of the enclosure and connected directly to the internal SATA connectors on my motherboard.  When the server was launched upward, these 3 discs now display as disconnected in storage.

    When I do the command 'get-disc' physical in PowerShell, the drives appear as "drives physical 1,2 & 5" and are 2.72 to each. "."  But it also lists disks Seagate Expansion as well, with a status of "communication lost".  These are the same three disks that are now internal.

    Nothing has been deleted or erased, so all the data is still on each individual unit and assume that if I managed to put back them in the external enclosure, would immediately online.  I thought that everything simply moving them to a new HARD disk controller (internal SATA USB) would not cause the pool to drop the readers, they are always connected to the same server.

    Is there a way to get storage space to see and read the 3 internal drives to bring my pool/area back online without losing any data?

  • Satellite Pro L300D started crashing when you are connected to the projector

    Hi all, I have a Satellite Pro L300D, have since January. In March of this year, it developed a problem.
    He began to turn the power on and off screen until I got the blue screen of death and had to reboot the laptop, also BIOS crashed. He was sent to Toshiba and got sorted.

    I use the laptop in the Church for the presentation to the powerpoint, we use a projector that connects to the video output on the laptop, but it has now begun to crash whenever I connect the projector to your laptop.

    Can I use the powerpoint, switch to the view of presenters and show the presentation of 30 minutes, then the screen goes black for about a second, the laptop and the projector off, then when they come again, I get a message saying that the display driver has been restarted, little after that the screen turns off, and then market / stop about six times before that I get the BSOD.

    Also, if I show a clip AVI or video during the presentation, it will crash soon after or even before its done.

    Have updated the drivers for laptop, I always get a message stating all the drivers are up to date and I am quite at a loss to know what to do next.

    To be honest, I'm so fed up with it that I am almost to the point of buying an Apple Mac Pro and away from Windows-based computers all together, my friends have macs and they never have any problem.

    Someone at - it an idea on what could be the problem?

    James

    Hello James

    Can you please tell me what mode you are using for the presentation?
    Is that what this duplication mode (the same image on the LCD screen and the external device) or something else?
    Do you have problems if you use the single external device (LCD screen is OFF)?

    Movie files can be problematic if you run on laptops LCD and try to switch to the external display while the movie is running.

  • Computer does not recognize LaCie external hard drive when it is connected.

    Should I just a 'driver' of the manufacturer so that windows recognize? Help, please.

    The device is a hard drive (250 gb) bought in 2006.   LaCie support has provided relevant solutions.

    I disconnected the USB line, reconnected with the power of the unit it turned on and off while only plugged, unplugged, and made all possible combinations of many times. My computer does not recognize anything.

    I can't find it in my computer, and also, the computer does not list the device in the Device Manager utility.

    I have disabled the Windows Firewall.

    The computer with which the external drive worked and one that currently does not recognize are model computers windows XP (2008).

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Thanks for the reply.

    In the meantime and after reviewing all similar positions, it turns out that find the 'live' usb device does the trick.

    So, other people with similar problems, try the usb cables at the back of the computer (all), then by restarting the connection there.

    It worked for me.

    Thanks again for the reply!

  • WLAN speed when you are connected to the internet

    I use WRT54G2 V1 Wireless Router. My firmware version is 1.0.04)is.

    I connect to the internet via ADSL.

    Both computers are connected to the router, we have a connection cable, other is connected wireless.

    If I'm not connected to the internet, I can transfer files between them through 1.5MB/s-2MB/s. But, if I'm connected to the internet, the speed drops to 100 KB/s - 200 KB/s. My adsl connection has a bandwidth of 1 Mbps (about 128 KB/s).

    Has anyone faced similar problem? No idea what to do?

    You said that you receive the Internet wireless at 100-200 Kbps (kilobytes per second), but I guess you're saying 100 to 200 Kbps (kilobits per second).  If you actually get 100 to 200 Kbps, so it is faster than your reported 1 Mbps line speed.

    A wireless connection is more important than a wired connection.  If most users, when connected wireless, get only about 50% to 70% of their wire speed.  So I'm expecting a 1 Mbit/s connected to the Internet, you should be able to get 500 to 700 kbps (kilobits per second) = approximately 50 to 70 Kbps (kilobytes per second) when connected wireless.

    When you file transfer from computer to computer on your local network, your speed is limited by 54 Mbps Wireless g your connection speed, which can provide a data rate up to 20 to 25 Mbit/s.  It is clearly much faster that your 1 Mbit/s to the Internet can provide data.  So that explains why the transfer of files on your local network is much faster than your wireless Internet connection.

    So, the only real problem I see is that your speed of your WAN (Internet) port to the wireless local area network computer seems to be slow.  The most common cause of this problem, is the default to reset the router by default after a firmware update.

    If you did not reset to the factory settings since the last update of the firmware, please do it now and see if it solves your problem.  After the reset, you must configure the router again from scratch.  If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

    To reset your router by default, follow these steps:

    (1) turn off all computers, the router and the modem and disconnect from the wall.
    (2) disconnect all the wires of the router.
    (3) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (4) press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release it, then let the router reset and restart (2-3 minutes).
    (5) turn the router.
    (6) connect a computer cable to port 1 of the router (NOT to the internet port).
    (7) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (8) the power of the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it's off).
    (9) try ping on the router. To do this, click the 'Start' button > all programs > Accessories > command prompt. A black DOS window will appear. Enter the following text: "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that begin with ' response to... ". "or"Request timed out". If you see "reply from...". ", your computer has found your router.
    (10) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to the login page of your router. Leave the user name blank and in the password field, enter "admin" (without the quotes). This will take you to your router configuration page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually found near upper right corner of the screen). Exit your browser.

    If you get this day without problem, try the Setup disk (or configure the router manually, if you prefer) and see if you can get your work and router configuration.

    If you can not ' response to... ". "in step 9 above, your router is probably dead. A report with this problem

    If you get a response in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, is that your router is dead or the firmware is damaged. Related to this issue.

    If you need additional assistance, please indicate your ISP, the make and model of your modem, the firmware version of your router and the results of steps 9 and 10. In addition, if you receive error messages, copy them exactly, and report.

    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

I use Windows XP service pack 2.  I read that Dell had the F11 recovery tool and I ran with success.  However as I started to load some of my programs on the disk, it seemed super slow and I don't know that I have confidence in it.  What should I do to get Windows XP to recognize my drives on the installer?  FRUSTRATING!
