ERROR: Not supported format the disk (VMDK sparse invalid header)

Hi all

I just met ovftool and gave it a try. I am fairly new to the world of VMware.

I have a. OVF I exported customer using vSphere 4.0. It. OVF consists of 3 Suse Linux based virtual machines. that is, I created a vApp on host ESX (4.1) in this TIME, I put my 3 VMs of SLES and then exported in file OVF.

It has a total area of about 4.5 GB.

Now, I ran this command to compress it. OVF and gave the opportunity to create a deltadisks.

C:\ > ovftool - compress = 9 - makeDeltaDisks - skipManifestCheck MyVMCluster\MyVMCluster.ovf E:\

output:

{{{

The manifesto does not validate
Generate records of delta for 2 discs (40960 MB capacity)
Playing discs
Transfer complete disc

Determine the optimal configuration for the Group of capabilities
Configuration of disk write
Transfer complete disc

Completed successfully

}}}

Now, when I checked my E:\ He had created a folder with the same name and place the associated files. I saw a significant reduction in the new vmdk format. (about 2.3 GB now)

So, when I deploy this new ovf vSphere client manually, it will up to certain age % and then reports an error:

{{{

Error loading file to the server (E:\MyVMCluster\disk3.vmdk.gz) not a supported (header invalid sparse vmdk) disc format

}}}

and then it stops and all rolledback.

Pointers?

Thank you

  • External hard drive not detected with the error: "You must format the disk in the J: drive until you can use it."

    Hello

    I have an external hard drive to work perfectly. I'm back from vacation, and it does not appear under "My Computer". It appears under "Devices and printers", however. This is a link to a screencap of Device Manager: http://i.gyazo.com/9e91e1d71ed32c55dba0419e79b499d5.png

    The device in question is that of J:, and it says here that he has 100% free space, that worries me, because he had only 50 GB of free space when I used the latter. After that I open the disk management, I get a pop up message saying: "You must format the disk in the J: drive until you can use it."

    How can I get my hard drive appears again?

    Hi Arman,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I would say you can remove the drive letter M: using disk management and assign a different drive for the drive letter and check if it helps you to solve the problem and if the drive works very well.

    To change the drive letter in disk management follow the steps below:

    a. open computer by clicking the Start> Control Panel > system and security> Administrative Tools > computer management. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    (b) in the left pane, click disk management.

    c. click the drive that you want to change and then click change drive letter and paths.

    d. do one of the following:

    • For letter an if it has not already received, click Add, click the letter you want to use and then click OK.
    • To change a drive letter, click change, click assign the following drive letter, click the letter you want to use, and then click OK.
    • To remove a drive letter, click Remove, and then click Yes to confirm that you want to remove.

    Additional information:

    Change, add, or remove a drive letter

    Hi samanthaGibbons,

    What is the make and model of your USB Flash drive?

    The USB Flash drive works in any other computer?

    It might be a problem with the drive itself, or it may need to be formatted.

    If you have NOT of LUNS assigned as Lun0 then you will get this error.   So always start with LUN Lun0 aka: Lun0 - first record entrust you, Lun1 - second disc etc.  You have not neccessarly to reallocate your currently lun, you could create a new lun and presenting it as Lun 0.     So try that if you are able to create a new Lun.   Otherwise if you have existing virtual machines running on the current Lun5 you would have to stop them, being cancelled at them in inventory, change the Monday from 5 to 0 and then re-record their I think.    Also, make sure that you do not jump also any number of LUNs... aka go Lun0, Lun1 and Lun2 Lun3 etc.

  • Cannot display a .avi file in Premiere Pro CS6. We get an error "not supported format or corrupted file.

    I am trying to bring three distinct animations in Premiere Pro, but it won't shoot them in the Source window or timeline of the sequence. The three files are uncompressed .avi files that were returned on in Autodesk Inventor. They are 15 second clips, around 2 GB and 40 fps. I can play them in Windows Media Player without problem. Any ideas on where to start troubleshooting? I can't imagine it's a codec issue, if the files are unzipped?

    Edit: I used MediaInfo to get the info on the video.

    > can't imagine it's a codec problem

    Imagine still once your screen printing said they are bitmap files... IE a string of images, not 'really' a video that the Organization recognizes... and a rate of 40 FPS is also "weird".

    Autodesk has other options... to create a file with a 'true' video output codec?

    Because the Assembly is not the same thing as play, you may need to find a codec to be installed to be able to edit (NOT a codec pack!)

    Autodesk has a place where you can download and install 'their' codec to edit files?

  • Error - exception error not supported for user - Help!

    Hi all

    I get an exception error unsupported to the user in a part of my page is refreshed after encountering a validation error.  Validation is managed properly, but when the page is refreshed to display I get an exception error not support for the user for the following code (generates the value of the element on the page):

    < code >

    Select nvl (sum (po_details.po_det_amt), 0)

    of po_details

    where po_details.po_id =: P230_PO_ID

    and po_details.wbs in (select distinct wbs_number_id of wbs, project

    where wbs.vendor_id =: P230_VENDOR

    and substr (wbs.wbs_number_id, 1, 6) = project.wbs_sequence

    and project.project_number = nvl (:F101_FPC_NUMBER,project.project_number));

    < code >

    When the code retrieves a single value, the following post calculation calculation of:

    < code >

    to_char(:P230_PO_AMT_FPC,'FML999G999G999G999G990D00');

    < code >

    Generally, the process works.  It is only when a validation run which prevents the removal of a purchase order that I encounter an error during a refresh of the page.  I get an exception error unsupported to the user for this calculation.  I'm puzzled.

    Any ideas?

    to_char(:P230_PO_AMT_FPC,'FML999G999G999G999G990D00');

    AFAIK - all within the APEX bind variables are of type VARCHAR2

    That means - you are implicitly expressing a string to a different data type just to cast to a string.

    So: this code is completely useless and adds more complication to the mix only what you need.

    It is very possible that Oracle is trying to convert a DATE... (which will fail)

    I put either the FORMAT for the type of element to match what you need or make the conversion from the string in your SELECT statement.

    for example

    Select to_char (nvl (sum (...), 0), "FML999G999G999G999G990D00")

    If you still get a 'user defined error', it is likely to be lifted since within the procedure used to remove the PO.

    See the DEBUGGING within the APEX pages to check exactly where the error is thrown.

    (it sounded like you already did and have reduced in to_char() section)

    Thank you very much

    Frenchquarter, welcome to the forum.

    I suggest that you download and install OpenOffice.  It is FREE and is open to all documents created in MS Office.  If it doesn't, at least it costs you nothing to try.

    I used OpenOffice for years.  Believe me when I say that he will do everything that will make MS Office and in some cases, the better.  At least, you will have to use in the future and you'll be amazed to see how they can do it for FREE.

  • CS4 won't open the files to an external hard drive. "not supported format or corrupted file?

    Hello

    I'm having a certain hard using first but the passage between different computers.

    So I created a project on another computer, in which I put the video files that are located on my hard drive (external). I saved the project on the same hard disk. Realization of my project, I noticed that creates the first "preview files" in a separate card.

    I got a new computer in which I put the 2 GB of ram necessary for myself so I could work at home. BUT when I connected my HD on my computer and tried to open the project, the computer said one of the preview files were missing. No big surprise, so I'm going and find the file. Click on it, but then it says:

    "not supported format or corrupted file", which is absolutely B * llshit because the Prime Minister created the file itself?

    In addition, all media, I imported in the left part of the screen of the user (not sure what you call) IS 'off CONNECTION '. It gets weird, because when I try to find the media using FIND in first, not all the files SHOW UP?

    Im getting quite nervous, because I need it to work hard enough

    Maybe its helpful to mention that my new computer is a complete novice blown [no internet connection, does not sound again: I just installed Service Pack 2] and maybe I'm missing some drivers?

    Please, please help me I'm wasting enough it actually...

    Thank you

    Jef,

    Open the CS4. Create a new project and when you get the sequence settings screen, are selectable AVCHD, HDV, and XDCAM presets?

    If this isn't the case, you are using the trial version, or your full version has been restored to the status of the trial. The trial does not support anything MPEG, even when encapsulated in AVI format.

    If you have the full version which is returned to the status of first instance, follow these steps:

    1. disable

    2 uninstall

    3. run the Script own CS4

    4 reboot

    5. Repeat steps 3 and 4

    6. Repeat steps 3 and 4

    7 install

    8 activate

    9. turn to update to 4.2.1

  • Calibration error SMU-4141 niDCpower version 1.8, "calibration function is not supported by the device."

    Nice to meet you.

    Hi Peter,.

    The calibration process indicates that the call of the function of voltage adjust NI - DCPower Cal calibrates both the output level of the device as well as the ability to measure of the device.  It is even for the Cal of NOR-DCPower function adjust a current measurement.

    You must perform a calibration automatic on the device prior to the initial audit of the device, before the adjustment process and before the final verification process.

    I'm not sure I understand your question very well.  Please let me know if I have not responded sufficiently.
