Deletion of snapshots automatically using the Snapshot Manager

Hello

I am very new and VMware Vsphere. I use vSphere 4.0 with ESXi 4 (I think). I managed to create a snapshot via the scheduled task in vSphere and I get a new every day; However, I would like to keep only one or two days worth of snapshots. The scheduled task is adjustable to delete snapshots after that whether a day or two old. Again, I am super new VMware vSphere and would appreciate any help that can be provided for the simplest solution. (Hoping that this can be done from the GUI somewhere)

Thanks in advance

Although it is possible to predict the creation of snapshots, I'm afraid there is no possibility to plan their removal.

  • RN104 - problem of "Delete inactive volumes to use the disc." #27199519

    I have what seems to be similar to many other questions.

    I have a RN104 with two 2 TB drives using X-RAID RAID 1 (mirror). I also activated the encryption. A couple of days, we had a power outage and the ReadyNAS close.

    I plugged the USB with the encryption key and he started upward but am now getting the error "delete inactive volumes to use the disk. Drive #1,2 '. And we can access is no longer the actions that have been setup on the NAS.

    All the suggestions/help? We are out of the period of our support.

    Just to close the loop and maybe help someone else who is having a problem, here is what he has done for me.

    I end up paying for support, however ultimately my problem was that when I copied/pasted the encryption key from our secure and saved on the USB password manager, the key had a newline character hidden line the end of it (an artifact of the copy/paste from the password manager) which was originally not to be able to decrypt the volume. I had to use a hex editor to view and delete the character that is hidden at the end of the key, then my volume was fine. So, if you have the above error AND you use an encrypted volume AND you have copied/pasted your encryption key from another source to a USB key, check the key for you ensure that no character hidden inside.

    I had a problem of tracking where we couldn't access or connect to one of the actions. Support has fixed this issue for me, the samba configuration file was empty, for some reason, support it repaired and we are back in business.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones New - fatal error during the first update by using the Office Manager phone

    During my first update using the Desktop Manager, there were 13 steps, and I had to unplug to half way through.

    Now when I try to repeat the process, the update gets steps 1-6 and just after reconnecting to JVM (step 6) I get a "fatal error update device software, please try again" I tried several times and it always stops in the same place.  The phone then has the radio turned off, and I have to restore the connections.

    I'm not an irritable person, so any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!!!

    Never disconnect during an update. Never.

    This is therefore a new phone, follow the instructions below.

    First, remove the battery from the BlackBerry when lit, to subject a minuite, replace and see if it restarts. If this is not the case, continue below.

    First find your operator and the system operating file that you want to use.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.
    2. go in c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • By using the Recovery Manager to repartition the HARD drive

    I started a post a few days back on my pavilion DM1-3014AU netbook that runs on AMD APU-E350, 2 GB of ram and comes pre loaded with windows 7 Home Basic. I had a number of requests because I want to repartition the hard drive, do a fresh install of windows 7 my disc and I also want to keep some of the hp software.

    After going through a few messages in this forum, I learned that we can use the Recovery Manager to do a minimal install, IE windows 7 and only the hp software. That's what I have to do unless I also want to repartition the hard drive.

    I currently have 4 partitions, C drive, hp tools (hidden) and backup (hidden). I have already created recovery disks. Now, my questions are:-

    1. can I use recovery disks or Recovery Manager to delete all existing partitions and recreate my own partitions. This means that I would remove the recovery, tools and backup partitions.

    2. After doing the above I'll be able to do a minimal install (os + hp software) via the Recovery Manager or the recovery disks.

    3. my intutions are that I can accomplish the above two using the recovery disks and not the recovery partition. If the above two steps are possible using recovery discs, it would ultimately have no partition on my hard drive recovery. I will then be able to use the recovery disks in the future to make the same minimum install (os + hp software)

    4. I wouldn't really keep the recovery, tools and backup partitions if they can be of any complacency in the future but the reson why I want to delete them, is that windows 7 Home Basic allows no more than 4 partitions and I want to be able to create at least 4 partitions for my use.

    Any help would be really appreciated...

    Yes Vikrant... it is unnecessary to install UEFI to update BIOS.

    Yes, if you install the update to the BIOS using the link I provided in my previous thead element, you can as a revert to a version of BIOS as soon as possible if you feel that the system is unstable.

    Even if you reparition the whole HARD disk and do a manimized install, you can install the BIOS update in the future.

    Updating the BIOS is independent if you did full recovery or minimizes recovery.

    BIOS update will not affect the use of recovery disks and procedures. You can safely use them in the future without any problem.

    You will use the ability to run F9 diagnostics incase of any software system crash, and you are unable to start Windows.

  • Can't remove plugin using the extensions Manager

    I installed my plug-ins in InDesign CS5 using the Extension Manager CS5, the installation is successful. When I select my plugin entry in the list of plug-ins installed and then click on the button Delete, the extensions Manager displays a progress bar and the line disappears from the list, but the plug-in is in the Plug-Ins folder intact!

    What is going on? How to make sure that the plug-in is deleted/uninstalled? Is there a log of errors in the extensions Manager file?

    Thank you very much.

    You can simply remove plugin-manager-type = "all users" and enabled for active - all = "true" in the mxi file and then create again this extension.

  • No start page, Google rises and there is no way out without using the Task Manager.

    I used to get the Google search engine at the start of Firefox, with bookmarks bar in side bars and tool at the top. Now, all I get is a Google search page, with a few buttons on the top like images, etc. There is no way to close the program without using the Task Manager. I downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed, but the problem has not disappeared. Operating system is Windows XP Professional

    Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).

    It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and bars scrolling down.

    • Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the taskbar icon to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the window of Firefox.
    • Open the system menu of the window of Firefox via Alt + space and see if you can move and resize the window (use the arrows on the keyboard).

    If it works, then first close all other open windows of Firefox and then close Firefox via "file > exit/Quit" to save the setting.

  • Using the Update Manager when he is incapable of vMotion.

    Using the Update Manager when he is incapable of vMotion.

    I have three Essentials licensed 5.0 hosts and vCenter operating on one of them as a virtual machine. All VM runs on the local disk. I'm tired of patching of CLI and want to use the Update Manager. I can easily do that, on the other hand, two hosts where vCenter is not running but obviously not on the host where it is running.

    I have a data store that is shared in the form of a QNAP NAS, but I can't Storage vMotion because of licensing restrictions. I can't do a vMotion "shared nothing" to another host due to the same restriction. It's like a catch-22 situation.

    I have the service window where I can turn off all the virtual machine

    Anyone has ideas on the use of Update Manager in this configuration or do I just forget about it

    Clone the vCenter even to another VM and make the vcenter temp on another host or elsewhere to deploy a new vCenter on another host and update the host from there
