Error: "cannot open the file 'E:\NSP2010\NSP2010drive2.vmdk': one of the disks in this virtual machine is already in use by a virtual machine or a snapshot."

Hello community.

I use my guest for a while; whenever I needed to reboot the host, I would shut down the comments (in this case Win2008R2).

The last time that I suspended the guest rather than stop it. Now when I try to start, I get this error.

I've seen people having this error on the forums, but proposed solutions don't resolve my problem.

I don't know what I have to join in order to diagnose this problem, but it will be a pleasure to do, if someone does.

VMWare Workstation 8.0.2

Host: Win 7 64

Comments: Win 2008 R2

Thank you very much.

    Try
    createType = "vmfs".

  • Trying to fix a CID parent access to a file descriptor of delta but VM still does not start. Other error "cannot open the disk...". The specified file is not a virtual disk.

    Starting the virtual machine has been tried several times earlier when I received the error message to tell the parent disk had been changed since the child was created. I looked at the resolution and had a go at fixing.

    I downloaded the vmdk files to find the problematic descriptor file it corrected and then download the a back fixed to the data store. I then removed the VM of the inventory and then re he added before attempting to start it. He says now the specified file is not a virtual disk. Unfortunately, I didn't know that he was still working on a snapshot file and had been for some time. It was a former VM test that I had played a little bit with all learning on VMware, but unfortunately he had a few files on it which is no longer, I have backup ups for and I could really do with recovery of them! The base file and delta file are always on display in the data store and I can re - use the base file in a new virtual machine but I need the data from the snapshot if possible file. Not sure if it can be manually engaged at the base (I have a copy of). I'm new to this depth of troubleshooting and according to research I realize it is a great chance, the data is not recoverable. Having said that if there is no hope at all then I would try or at least have someone who knows what they're doing a go help before you tell me everything is lost! I'm not really bothered to get the virtual machine running again, but must be able to copy some files in the C drive.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Craig

    I can't tell you if the data in the virtual drive itself can be retrieved by the attached hard file. However, it seems that you have used an editor who added a BOM (Byte-Order-Mark) at the beginning of the file, which made her an invalid for ESXi.

    Hello

    The last 3 days, we get the error in the alert below log.

    I check as the same partners to it in metalink I found permission to check the directory solution. (DOC ID367619.1)
    I got permission from ORACLE_HOME\dbs $ to 777, but still m making the same mistake.

    also I try to recreate spfile so that I try to create pfile first

    create pfile from spfile

    I get the error below.

    Help, please.

    Thanks in advance

    The output of ls - lrt is in the path $ORACLE_HOME\dbs only

    We also have the database version 10.2.0.4 that the spfile even uses everyday cold backup of the database.

    also, I put the 777 permission to the file.

    OK, I guess there will be corruption of the SPFILE as if edited manually or in any other cases too.

    You have a backup of SPFILE? backup of the file PFILE or?

    then starting using this SPFILE, if any backup then start with PFILE and then create SPFILE from PFILE.

    Otherwise, you can copy the contnets of the parameters of the alert log file initialization and paste in the editor and the instance of starutp.

    These are the options.

  • Cannot open the disk could not be locked the file

    Error when you try to share a drive between two virtual machines.  I have two web servers VM and a disk shared data, each web server has 20 GB for operating system disks, and they share a 500 GB drive for data.  I use clustered OCFS2 file system later.

    See the 500 GB drive, but when we turn on the two VM the second throws the following error:

    "An error was received from the ESX host turning on VM Myweb1.

    Cannot open disk ' / vmfs/volumes/MyWeb1/MWeb1.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

    Cannot lock the file.

    I've read about this error before but can't find where and understand that it's either because I don't set them up right to start with, or that there is some extra config I can do in the s flat *.vmx file?

    Here's what we did when creating virtual machines and a shared disk, is there something missing

    Create 2 new virtual machines for Web servers with disks of 40GB of basis for the operating system and then add a new hard drive to one of the virtual machines in vSphere BUT must be correctly configured for sharing between multiple virtual machines.

    For example, to change the settings > Add > hard drive > create a new virtual disk > choose size and choose 'Thick eager disposition to zero' > under 'Virtual Device Node' choose a "SCSI (1:0)" then finish.

    Once the drive has been zero there would stay out in 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.

    Change the settings of the 2nd virtual machine and choose Add hard drive, choose existing, navigate to which you have created the VM 1 drive, make sure you assign it the same SCSI (1:0).

    Thanks a lot a lot a lot for any help in advance

    Did you also step on 2 VM below

    After the disc has been zero go back outside to 'Change settings' > click new controller SCSI 1 and choose virtual disks 'Physical' can be shared between virtual machines on any server.

  • CHKDSK error: cannot open the volume for direct access.

    CHKDSK is on the machine does not work it gives me the error:

    Autochk cannot run because of an error caused by a recently installed software.
    Use the system restore feature in the control panel to restore the system to a point prior to the installation of the new software package.
    An unspecified error has occurred (766f6c756d652e63 3f1)


    When I run it.

    I also tried a boot following the instructions of clean boot in Microsoft (through the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796 URL) and then try to run a CHKDSK command-line command (cmd) prompt in an administrator account and it always gives me error 766f6c756d652e63 3f1

    I also have the CD of Windows 7 available and administrator of the computer. I don't know how to get it to make CHKDSK work correctly at startup
    Thank you

    Hello Mitcherator777,

    You can connect to your computer in normal mode or only in safe mode?

    It would be the best way to run the Chkdsk command:

    1 disable any security software before you attempt to upgrade or do a clean install.
    2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)
    3. disconnect all external devices before installing.
    4. check your hard disk for errors:
    Click Start
    Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r
    When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

    Let us know the status of your question.

    Thank you

    Marilyn,

    This problem has been resolved, I contacted Microsoft directly on the phone in the time of September.
    Question has proved to be a dirty disc. as my 1 year limited manufacturer expired warranty, I have since last week bought a new HDD to solve this problem.
    Please examine this issue.

  • Cannot open the folder of IMAGES on SONY NWZ - E383 Walkman using Windows Explorer.

    Any ideas?

    Joffrey:

    I tried your suggestion, but I am still unable to access the folder IMAGES using Windows Explorer.

    The progress bar green in Windows Explorer at the top never quite reaches the right side.

    MUSIC and VIDEO files work fine.

    I even tried pressing the RESET button at the back of the Walkman, without success.

    What other ideas can you suggest?
