ESX 4 - mounting CIFS, not appearing is not under storage
Hello, I try to mount a CIFS share on an ESX 4.0 host. The CIFS share is on a San, which is not certified for NFS. I want to store vmdk on the SAN files. The SAN will be mirrored off site soon, so my virtual machines are stored.
Basically I see not the CIFS share under storage VMWare vSphere Client.
I ran the following command.
mkdir/mnt/cifs
Mount - t cifs //SANName/Sharename/mnt/ASR o username = SANUSER, domain = ABC
He asked for a password.
When I type mount I see that it is properly mounted.
According to me, Miss me a step.
CIFS is not taken in charge of Protocol for the Assembly of your storage space to run virtual machines, you can ride as you noted with the Service Console, but it must be used to store virtual machines and so it is not visible by the host ESX, only NFS, FC/iSCSI is supported.

Mounting CIFS cannot share in ESX 4
Hello
Does anyone else have this problem?
I was able to mount CIFS shares just find on ESX 3.x, but with vSphere 4.0, I get the following error message when you try to mount:
Mount: wrong type of fs, the bad option, bad superblock on / / 192.168.100.20/Images.
missing code page or other error
In some cases the useful information is in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or
When I look at dmesg, I see this:
smbfs: mount_data version 1919251317 is not supported *.
Someone at - it a little chance of mounting the new CIFS service console? I'm trying to see if I can get Visbu 1.0.1 working on this new version.
Thanks for your help!

VMware knowledge base is a great place to search for this type of answers
As mentioned, your type must be cifs and not smbfs

ESX 3.5 does not start with two intel cpu on an ibm HS21 blade 5420
I have 4 ibm HS21 blades that I bought recently and ESX 3.5 does not start on them if I have both CPU intel 5420 installed. It will start if I remove one of the CPU. This also occurs if I try ESXi.
I have two blades I bought 8 months ago that work well with both CPU is installed. Blade models are very similar, "old" is hs21-8853a1c new knives is hs21-8853g3u.
I have updated the bios and the controllers. At this point, I shot two blades of the additional processor so that I can use them but I would really like to put back them.
Any thoughts?
David,
Welcome to the forums!
Could check you if two microprocessors are executing a different step? If so, then the debate may be relevant here .

"Backup failed. Not enough storage space.
Original title: image
W7 32-bit HP. Use the image via Control Panel with success for a long time. However, this morning received the message "backup failed. Not enough storage space. Have you checked and at least ten times more space on the destination like this drive would be necessary for the entire image. The only change I've made since the last successful backup is to install an SSD on my computer as the main C drive.
Thanks, but none of it has hit the problem!
I now it worked. For the benefit of any person who has the problem, Image requires that there is enough space on the * source * system partition of the drive for the shadow file (when get "space insufficient" messages everyone (including me) assumes respect to the * destination drive!) (Not so).
This seems to happen to a lot of people who are for the first time in an SSD. Because I had previously shrunk the partition on my drive C primary, preparatory to mounting small SSD (112 GB), the system partition was too small for shadow of the image file.
Under W7 disk management even if the main partition on the C drive could be reduced to create a space unallocated, the space could not be assigned to the system partition as requiring a contiguous space.
So I used (free for home) Easus Disk Manager to create space * before * the partition main c and then expanded the system inside partition, making this system partition that is large enough. Everything worked well then!

Corresponding printer does not not under Snow Leopard
Matches the corresponding printer does not not under Snow Leopard, printers appear in the windows and by default, but when you print you get pages and pages of error messages.
I tried to print the word "test" in Notepad, you press on print, cancel the printer after seven error pages and random characters, I could even begin to reproduce it for you.
Tried on my Unibody Macbook and iMac, same result.
VMWare Fusion 2.05, Windows XP Pro SP3
ratkat, I see a lot of ugliness in your papers...
2009-08-29 10:45:22 no printer not configured or not available
As well as many errors which look like: < error >: CGBitmapContextCreate: not supported combination of parameters: 8 integer
I would try to uninstall merge, restart and then reinstall Fusion, restart and test from there.
The only thing I noticed about snow leopard updates is an occasional permission problem, so this could be a sign of this.

My iMac is 21.5 "end 2012, Intel Core i5 to 2.7 GHz, 8 GB of memory and runs OS X El Capitan worm 10.11.4.
I get a message saying ' not enough storage iCloud"but when I check the iCloud storage in the settings I says I have 4.99 GB available. There are no backups in the iCloud either. What Miss me? Thank you
My guess would be you have more 4.99 GB of photos and videos on your iMac and the iCloud as library enabled for synchronization with iCloud.
In Photos, go to Preferences > iCloud and see if there is a message of error/attention.

I s 6 more, 128 GB (not even near full... yet), iCloud is off (never use), and every morning for the past 3 weeks I've been doing the pop up that says that the phone could not be saved because there is not enough storage. When I touch the upgrade of storage, the pop-up goes away but me takes no parameters. I got the phone about 3 months so why this just started?
You apparently do not have 'turned on' iCloud and backups iCloud activated, otherwise you would not receive this message.
