creating a w2k3 file sharing

Hey guys, need help... Please offer guidance that you can.

I was instructed to create a new file w2k3 share in our virtual using vSphere 5.0

I said I need to build a new volume, then set it to a LUN.

After that, I want to clone an existing VM that extend the 40 GB partition, preferably 1 TB.

I believe that it meets the requirements for my tasks, though having very little experience with VMware is what actually task harding than what it is.

Can anyone provide a step by step guide for this mission?

Unlike many other publishers, the VMware documentation is really complete and should be the first reference to any operational or administrative task. This and of course, to use these communities for all your questions of unaswered. Good luck!

  • Local Mac malfunction file sharing

    I am using local file sharing in my house for a good 8 years. I have 2 older iMacs (white 2006, 2007 aluminum) and a new late 2015 5 k iMac that I bought a few days ago.

    For some reason any local file sharing has started to malfunction: I no 1 wifi access point and all computers are to connect to that, but in the sidebar of Finder, tab, sharing only the 2007 aluminum appears. Other computers cannot see other computers except 2007 one. 2007 iMac can see and connect them too. I checked the settings for sharing on all computers, but nothing has changed.

    I tried to manually enter the ip address into Finder go tab, 'Connect to server', but I always find myself with 'server not found '. There is nothing different between computers sharing preferences, but somehow only the 2007 one appears.

    Please help me, I use this feature a lot!

    Thank you.

    Hi pianistemre2,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple support and congratulations on your new iMac! I understand you wanting to continue using the sharing of files between your 3 iMac, but only one is considered by the computers on your network. I know it's a great way to share files between devices, so I'm happy to provide advice to solve this.

    Since you are able to see and connect to the 2007 iMac, it seems as if it were the only one who has fully implemented which files he will share, and with whom he will share the. Make sure that you have followed the steps below to configure which directories you want to share with other users on your network. Also, remember that users can access those files.

    How to share files with other users of Mac:

    1. Open sharing preferences if it is not already open (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Sharing).
    2. Check the file sharing.
    3. To select a specific share folder, click Add at the bottom of the folders list, find the folder, select it, and then click Add.
      1. The Public folder of each user who has an account on your Mac is automatically shared. To prevent a shared folder, select it in the list of shared folders and click Remove.
    4. By default, any user put in place on your Mac in the preferences users and groups can connect to your Mac via network. A user with an administrator account can access your Mac together.
      1. To give only some users access to a folder, select the folder in the folders list, and then click Add at the bottom of the list of users. Then do one of the following:
        1. Select a user in users and groups, that includes all your Mac users.
        2. Select a user from the network or users groups network, which includes everyone on your network.
        3. Select a person in your contacts. Create a password for the person, then click on create an account.

  • Windows Server backup - Reporting failure, but creates a backup file

    Currently have a Server 2008 R2 running. Also runs Hyper-V with 3 than VMS. VM can be found on the D drive, so I have given up trying to save with C, since it was time.

    I don't have a setup of daily - just VSS full backup disk Local (c), no bare metal recovery or backup the system state. It's backup on a network drive shared on a different server.

    Daily backup status comes back as having failed. However when I go to the destination that the backup must be going, I see a 280 GB VHD file, which is the size expected to see.

    The error reported in the Windows Server backup is "one of the backup files could not be created. "Error: the parameter is incorrect".

    WSB is horrible to provide crash reports useful on what is the real problem.

    Anyone have any idea why it's create a large file of backup, but reported as having failed with this error?

  • File sharing problem

    I have four computers in small office. Three see each other, the fourth XP invisable on a Windows network. They all have the same name of "workgroup". and file sharing enabled. I can ping other but cannot get windows network to see?   Number four computer is configured to share files, I ran the wizard several times to double check that the names are the same.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.  James

    You left out the part where you tell us what version of Windows is located on each computer. This is important.

    What follows is quite old, but still excellent, former MS MVP Malke boards:

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard the on all machines (see warning in section A below).

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. The only "witch hunt", it will turn on the XPSP2 Windows Firewall. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus with "Internet Worm Protection" (like Norton 2006/07) which acts as a firewall, you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this. The instructions on this link work for XP and Vista: set up Windows for the connection automatically (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

    D. Si one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

    E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. See the first link above for more information on Vista sharing.

    F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response.

  • How to password protect my files shared on my network?

    I am trying to share a folder on the network and the have password protected. I use Windows XP Service Pack 3 Professional. I have disabled in simple file sharing files Options. All my computers are in the same workgroup. For the record I would like to share, I have the following settings:

    On the sharing tab, I 'Share this folder', filled in the maximum limit and the share user name. The "Permissions" button, I deleted "Everyone" and put in a username I've created specifically for the sharing folder connection and he gave total control. Everything is left to him by default.

    For the Security tab, I just like default except added the user account, I created and that you have authorized for total control.

    When I look at from any computer on the network, I can see the computer and shared folders in the working group. There is a default folder "SharedDocs" I open it. But if I try to enter the folder that I created, I get the following error:

    "You are not allowed to access \\MYCOMP\SharedFolder. Contact your network administrator to request access.

    If I do all what I said above, but instead of adding the user account, I put "Guest" or "everyone, then the file can be found on my other computers without the error but no password is invited. What should I do so that when I try to enter the folder, it ask for a login and a password.

    As a side note, my other computers do not have this problem with their shared folders. When I click on the computer under 'View workgroup computers '. Rather than open a list of shared folders, it opens a prompt for a login and a password, and if they are correct, it will show that all shared folders and files shared to that user. If the password of the specific folders is not possible, should what settings I change so that it works like this instead?

    My apologies if this should have been in the files, records and research topic.

    When you connect to a network share, authentication proceeds roughly in this order:

    1. If the user on the remote computer is connected with a user name that exists on the machine sharing the passwords match, while the user is authenticated as himself without another guest.
    2. If the user on the remote computer is connected with a user name that exists on the machine of sharing and the passwords do not match, then this as seen user denied access to the computer sharing without prompting.
    3. If the user on the remote computer is connected with a user name does not exist on the machine of sharing, an attempt is made to authenticate the user "guest".  If successful, that the user connection looks like it is 'guest' on the machine of sharing user.
    4. If the remote user is unable to authenticate as a 'guest' on the sharing machine, then a name of user and password screen appears to provide authentication.

    It seems to me to make it work as you want, you want to make sure that step 3 above does not occur.  This can be accomplished by disabling the "Guest" on the machine sharing account. (This forces everyone to authenticate on the machine)  Two ways to do as an administrator on the machine of sharing:
    (A) bring up a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
    NET user guest / active: No.
    (B) right click on 'My Computer'-> manage-> system tools-> local users and groups-> users
    Double-click "Invited" in the right window-> Put a check in the box "account is disabled".  "OK" your way out.

  • I want to limit the file sharing on a home network, Windows XP Pro (working group) to a specific user on a different computer.

    I can't get this username entered with success because I'm limited to only users on the computer, I'm trying.  I have Windows XP off file sharing simple.  Both computers running XP Pro and I can share the folder, but it is open to ALL.  Is there a way to do this?

    I would like to try to explain how it works.  You have XP Pro on Computer1 and you have disabled Simple file sharing.  It is a step in the right direction.  The facts are that the file exists on the computer 1 and is 1 computer to control what external connection gets access to this file.  Computer 1 can only validate combinations of username/password names he knows.  Is not in a domain, computer environment 1 includes only names of user and password that exists on the computer 1.  He cannot know or trust any combination of name of user and password that does not exist within itself.  The normal method, most people use is to create the same user on computer 1 that exists on the computer that connects and gives the same password that is used on the computer that connects to this user.  If this is the case, the external user connects seamlessly and have access if 1 computer gave this authorization to the user in this file.  Access can be controlled by right-clicking on the file or folder, select 'Properties' and then use the 'Security' tab to generate an access matrix.

    Authentication: When connecting to the computer 1 from another computer, computer 1 search first if the username on the computer connection exists on the computer 1.  If the user name of the user on the computer connection exists on computer 1 and passwords on both computers to match, the connection is established.  If the passwords do not match, the connection is refused.  If the user name of the logged in user does not match a user on computer 1, then the 'Guest' user is attempted.  If the guest user is not protected by a, then the user will resemble the user 'Guest' and 'Guest' appropriate access.  If the guest user is disabled on Computer1, and then the computer connection displays a name of User/Login screen asking the user to provide credentials (name and password) 1 computer can use and recognize to check that the user.  If a name of user and password recognizes that computer 1 is entered, then computer 1 authenticates the user with this credential.

    Of course, once authenticated, the user will have access to these files to which permissions have been granted to this user authenticated according to the KB307874.  XP cannot grant permissions to users, he knows not (obviously) beyond the 'Guest '.

    Bottom line is that you have discovered in a domain environment (workgroup), you MUST authenticate as a legitimate user who is (and who is not disabled) on Computer1.

  • Via InvokeActionItem file sharing appears NFC

    The problem I see, is that I have a file with a custom. When you use the InvokeActionItem to share (bb.action.SHARE), I can not everything other then NFC (BBM, email and so on are not available). The file, filename.xyz, just contains XML code that my application handles the opening.

    So, how can I fix?

    Code:

     

    {InvokeActionItem}
    ID: shareIPBtn
    Title: qsTr ("share IP")
    ActionBar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.InOverflow
    imageSource: "asset:///images/share.png."

    query {}
    MIME type: ' application/xml '.
    invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE".
    }

    onTriggered: {}
    data = ServerRepository.getServerFilePath (hostIPStr.text); Returns the name of the file
    }
    }

    So the solution is not quite as clean as I'd hoped it would be. When you define a query of InvokeActionItem, the uri must point to a file that exists on the file system. The mime type is then used to determine how the file can be sent via.

    It is certainly a requirement without papers. What did my code was to create the file to transfer when InvokeActionItem-> onTriggered() is called. This is because the content of the file depends on what the InvokeActionItem has been used. A sharing would result in another file that sharing B.

    Anyway, my solution was to create an empty file just for the InvokeAction query can be satisfied. When onTriggered() is called, then I write to have the file and the file is sent in the chosen language.

    What I find frustrating, is that the contents of the file has no impact on what is the InvokeActionItem; This responsibility lies with the mime type. So, I ask you, what's the point to check if the file exists?

  • Is Windows 7 file sharing allows simultaneously several user record updates

    I want to allow multiple users to read and update shared files.  I can do that with the collective dwelling characteristics of files shared in

    Windows 7?

    Essentially no. In fact, she is stuck at a level of access. If a file is opened to a single user, it must be locked read-only to another. Even if the 1st user then abandons the connection to the 2nd user held that he read only until they give up and pick it up again. This has nothing to do with the sharing of files in Windows 7, it would apply in a true client/server scenario. Network access is file level and must be complete, you can have a single user update a sector and another one another in the same file.

    Even at a database level place opportunistic locking on records to avoid 2 contradictory written which takes place at the same time, how a system can focus on accessing a field between 2 users.

    The most obvious solution in a client/server for documents environment is SharePoint, but even that files 'reserved' users to restrict the other until there is only new.

    The classic example of what I saw was at the time of the BACK where the networking addon could allow 2 files of the same name to be created in the same directory because he did not have a functional locking system does not work. When a second user writes the file, that it doesn't have the same identity that the first has so his own writing, 2 files of the same name in a directory could not happen, but it did.

  • Domain network cannot activate file sharing and print?

    Hi all

    I get an error message when you try to share a folder "an error has occurred. trying to share folderxxx Incorrect function ". After research I see that file and printer sharing is not enabled.

    I went to control panel | Network and sharing Center. Advanced settings - sharing on the "Discovery of the network" and "File and printer sharing" I select "turn on...» "for one or the other and save changes - but neither is saved! Ebb in advanced sharing settings both return to "Turn off"... "State. (I am local and domain admin).

    Windows 7 computer is joined to a domain and the firewall settings are defined mainly through Group Policy, although local settings are allowed (merged).

    I would add that I can access the admin shares (c$, d$) on the computer without problem on the network so advanced in this regard firewall settings are ok.

    At a loss as to why file and printer sharing will not allow?  Thank you.

    I found what was wrong or the problem.

    During the process of deployment of our new systems Windows 7 wipe us the rules of default outgoing firewall who do seem to not be a problem because outbound connections have been set by default to "allow". But we have learned that only when outbound rules for file sharing and printer available (enabled or not) can share news can be created.

    After the creation of the joint ownership, these outbound rules can be removed and sharing still works fine to keep rules to incoming traffic.  I guess this is normal, but it is not quite make sense to me why the outbound rules are explicitly required for files and printers share when you create a share... but that is what has worked for us.
