Copy the files of ESXi 4 to ESXi 4 guests VERY SLOW with "FastSCP 3"?
Hello
I have two HP ML350 G5 servers with ESXi 4. now, I want to move some virtual machines in one ESXi host to another. This is a small test system.
I found this program Veeam FastSCP which is a faster tool to copy files between ESXi servers, so I installed this tool on my client workstation and have begun to copy yesterday.
But the transfer rate is of 14 MB/s, it will take & gt; 26 hours to complete my project (1 TB of data transfer). I am not satisfied with this speed, because ESXi, my client station servers and switch between the two network cards 1 GB...
This speed is normal? Or have you of the best ways to do so?
Firestartah is correct, that I just wanted to confirm and add direct links:
Yes, it's transfer speed of 'normal' file for ESXi 3.5 or 4.0:
File transfers are a few times faster with 'fat' ESX, but the latest versio of ESX 4.0 has a kind of service console disk read limitation described here:
Disc playback slow speed on ESX4

Copy the files from ESXi vmware.log
All,
Need a bit of help here. We were asked to keep the vmware*.log files in the folder of each VM. Using the viToolkitExtensions, I can get the files in each directory, but I can't get copied off in my server Windows so that they can be saved. It has been suggested that I use TkeDatastoreFile copy, but I ran into a wall, make it work. Here's what I have so far, once connected to the VC.
$x = get-VM VMNAME | Get - views | % {$_.config.files.vmpathname}
$y = $x Extract-TkeDatastorePathElements
$z = get-datastore $y.datastore | Get-tkedatastorefile | where {$_ .path - like "vmwareJournal"}
I can now browse each journal found in the folder, but I can't get copy-tkeDatastoreFile work to copy each file to a destination on the Server Windows where the script will run, for example D:\Data\logs. Any ideas on how I finish that?

Here's a transcript of a session that has worked for me. I added - noSize - noType and - noModification to Get TkeDatastoreFile because it speeds up things a bit.

Copy the file from the desktop to the filesystem (not datastore) hosts?
Hey all,.
I need to download a custom file system authentication on /etc/pam.d/system-auth on 16 hosts. I did a copy master file and stored on a local workstation.
I expected to come up with a PowerCLI script to help with this.
I found the Copy-Datastoreitem CMDlet to copy the files to the data store. But technically, /etc/pam.d is the local file system of ESXi, not the host data store.
Anyone have any ideas on how to do this with PowerCLI (or same ESX CLI also)?
Thank you
Drew
Thank you.
A word of warning, that BusyBox is a customized version and any changes that it is not supported!

Portege M400: cannot copy the files on the disk HARD - can't see any of my files in Word
I bought the M400 a few weeks ago. There are a number of problems. Adobe reader gives "an internal error has occurred", manual installation of download gives "error occurred in the file zip", download or copy of the files on the hard disk gives error "there is no space" when there are only 8 gig used from 60 GB. Now, I don't see any of my files in Word.
I can also copy the files from the cd or DVD. I'm in canada mississauga on Horus, usually resident in the United Kingdom, so I'm in a precarious situation because I can't in my office to sort out the issues.
Can someone advise me please why all these problems are happening, do I have to use the recovery disk? Baz
> Forgive me but how to put the hard drive in business.
I think that the Johnny means that you connect the HARD drive to another computer using the external USB HDD controller. These external USB HDD cases can be purchase in every store of the computer.
However, if you n t need data that are placed on the HARD drive, you could simply start installing the OS from the recovery CD. This will format the whole HARD drive and install the new operating system as well as all the drivers, utilities and software further.

ENVY of HP dv7: copy the file fails error on disk 2 to 58% HP recovery
My hard drive in my dv7 ENVY dies for the second time in two years (it was under warranty last time and I was able to fix). I bought the hard drive same exact (Samsung, 1 TB), tested in BIOS, past everything. When I try to make the image recovery with the HP recovery discs I received the last time my hard drive died, I get an error then that 58% on two recovery disc that says:
Reducer
Copy the file fails
From: d:\preload\base24. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
To: c:\RM\Image\BASE24. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Press OK to retry.
I press OK and it does the same thing over and over again.
People who questioned him on this same type of error seem to get anywhere here, but what choice do I have? The hard drive is the same size, same manufacturer, same model, it should have the question of reimage the system on a hard drive more small, right?Am I just out of luck on that? So frustrated.
Hello;
Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
I read your post on recovery issues and wanted to help.
Here is the link to the tool of creation of win8.1 media: installation media to create for Windows - 8.1 help WindowsUnderstand, however, you might encounter a problem installing using the media created from this tool.
You have a version of OEM HP of Win8 installed on your PC, and this means that the product key that is embedded in the motherboard UEFI firmware is OEM, not retail.
While the media created from this tool SHOULD be activated using this key, there is no guarantee he will do. If it is not the case, you can use this tool to recover your product key and try to enter it manually: Download Windows OEM Product Key Tool - MajorGeeks
IF it still does not work, then your only recourse would be to order a new set of recovery from HP discs.
You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers
Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update". If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entty and click on order to press for more details.
Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:
If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
NOTE: once you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to someone ' one - it can take a while!However, HP customer care is generally not available on weekends, so you will have to wait until Monday to contact them.
Good luck

Copy the file fails the Windows 7 recovery discs sent hp
I have tried to solve this problem for a month now and I'm at the end of my home.
I am now on my third set of recovery discs HP and all have the same problem. I insert disk 1 by following the instructions on the support forum. She's going through
Reformat the hard drive windows partition - tick
Copy of the files needed to restore the hard drive - tick
And immediately as ending, this window appears:
Reducer
Copy the file fails
From: E:\PRELOAD\BASE. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

Press OK to retry
Three series of drives have the same come.
What the hell is happening?
I'm so sick of this.
Read a few other posts with similar problems, but can't seem to find the solution. I don't have an external hard drive, I can use... only the laptop I'm trying to fix. (G6-1305sa)
Any help? It also doesn't help when the HP support is open on the phones until 5:30 from Monday to Friday. I'm at work so can't call. So frustrating...
AaaarrrrrgggghhhhhHi Belj,
Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I read your thread on your HP Pavilion g6-1305sa Notebook and not able to restore Windows. If the HARD drive is faulty, this can cause the restoration should not go well. You can try to run a test of material. Please note remove any and all USB devices and remove the memory card in the slot of the card reader. Disconnect all non-essential devices. What is the original HARD drive? Have you replaced all other parts? Have you tried to do a clean install of Windows 7. Try running sfc/scannow would scan your system to find errors on the command line. You can get to the command prompt by clicking F11 at startup. You can see this Microsoft document on the system recovery options.
Hope this will help.
Thank you.

After the RAID 0 disk partitioning, installing Windows says it will copy the files in the file system. The first file is iaStor.sys. My SATA CD drive runs for a few seconds, then there is a long pause, then the OS says that it cannot copy the file iaStor.sys. He goes on to say that I should check that there is a CD in the drive. Any ideas?
Here's the solution to this problem:
1. in the disk driver (a:\) root directory create a directory called holiday of $ $OEM existing files as they are, we will not delete or replace anything.
2. in the directory $ $OEM you have created, create another directory called TEXTMODE
3. copy all the driver files located in the root directory to the A:\$OEM$\TEXTMODE subdirectory, try to reinstall, it should now work.

How do slove this problem please to continue to work with my PC?
Thanks in advance!You should not use these programs, but if you want a USB key to install then you should make an ISO file and then using Unebootin according to me this is a best software to USB for xp and if you have windows 7 installed in one of your system, then you can use tool usb windows 7.

I have Windows XP. I have a flash drive with many files that I have on my second hard drive. I just it copies the files that I have on the hard drive and I don't want to have to sit and answer 'yes' or 'no' question about the replacement of files each time that it recognizes a file duplicate. How do I do that?
When you see this double prompt or not, are there not a checkbox that says something like "Always do this for all files" or something in that sense?You can manually copy the files. Here is the CTRL key while you click the files you want and then just drag them to the location on the HARD drive. -
