• How to recover from the failure of a with ESXi USB flash drive?

  I have ESXi 5.5 running on a 16 GB USB flash drive.  The system itself has a RAID card and drives mirrored where all virtual machines are stored, so it seems to me that a critical point of weakness is the drive itself.  If die ESXi itself running flash player, is there a procedure to recover the virtual machines on the disks?  Or should I keep a backup of my drive as well?

  1. How to restore the operating system assuming that the flash drive fails? If I reinstalled ESXi on a new drive of the same thumb, would see the VMware VMs existing on the hard drives of the server? Or is the process of discovery of the relatively painless existing virtual machines?

  If your flash drive goes down, will not be a problem that you have your virtual machines without danger on the separate data store in the locally attached storage drives. all you got to do is to reinstall ESXi host, he will be happy to see the existing VMFS data store and browse this data store where are stored the re-save you and virtual machines in the inventory.

  See also changes following KB to make the backup of your ESXi as operating system configuration and when you change the configuration at the time of the failure of ESXi, you don't have to worry about re-configuarting it

  1. How can I maintain redundancy for my USB failure? Can I have two drives connected and automatically backup flash / mirror the first hard drive to the second?

  This is not possible (I never tried myself) If you use an external flash drive, but let's say that you have any material to the specific provider giving this feature as

  DELL IDSDM http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/poweredge-idsdm-whitepaper-en.pdf

  or another supplier giving a similar feature, then it is quite possible to mirror. Otherwise, the best option is take config. backup using KB, I mentioned in the first answer.

  and go to access as a guest (ALWAYS logged IN MY ACCOUNT) so that the family can use my computer,

• Slow data transfer for USB flash drives

  When I transfer a file to a USB flash drive, the transfer is very slow. I checked my USB host controllers and they work very well. There seems not to be of hardware problems. Here is the Dell gx270s, the two XP Professional SP3 running computers. I didn't find any solution on the support site for anyone. Controllers are Intel. I used the Driver Max and it does no problem - but I wonder about the accuracy of this program.

  Anyone who has ever had this problem and figured it out?

  Michael Skladd

  Hello
   
   
  1. What is the brand and the model number of the flash player?
  2 is this problem limited to this flash drive?
  3 are. what transfer speed you now?
   
  Check if the transfer rate is the same on another computer. Also, try using a player different flsah on this computer and compare the transfer rate. I would ask you to update the drivers for the chipset on the Dell site.

• USB Flash Drive gives the error "you must format the disk in drive E, before you can use it"

  I just plugged my USB pen and a message pops up saying: "you need to format the disk in drive E, until you can use" I was wondering if and how I can solve this problem? Can anyone help? Sam
  * original title - USB pen problem *.

  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.

  I suggest you check out the website of the manufacturer for possible troubleshooting or know how to reformat the disk, if necessary.

  I hope this helps!

• How to recover a W7 OS on the new HARD disk USB flash drive?

  I have my Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop friends. HARD drive have a lot of bad sectors, but it was fun to do:

  • a copy of the image of recovery dell USB flash drive via Dell Backup and Recovery Application
  • a copy of the very important files
  • and a copy of the 2 partitions to each image using Acronis True Image application file:
  1. FAT16 Pri 39, 19 MB FS: FAT16 Partition: 0xde (EISA configuration)
  2. Pri, Act 14.65 GB NTFS RECOVERY

  RECOVERY partition have the same content, such as a usb flash drive with I used to do a recovery Dell image.

  If she buys a new drive HARD this what should I do/use to recover Windows 7 from a USB?

  PS. I have nothing to lose and I try to play with the hard drive has failed.
  First of all I do partition of LBA 0 to 80 GB first where bad sectors and hide this partition.
  Then I do these partitions 2 "dell" and the rest for system files.
  Then I recover these partitions of 2 "dell" using Acronis True Image.
  Then I use a usb flash drive to recover Windows 7, it retrieves for maybe 10 seconds and he said that, please restart.
  When it shows BOOTMGR is missing, press ctrl + alt + delete and now I see only 2 partitions labeled OS ~ 298 GB and RECOVERY ~ 2 GB.

  The problem is resolved.

  The best solution is to use ImageX 2.0 to extract file Factory.wim partition RECOVERY or USB flash drive. Just search on google. New installation of operating system is also an option - I know about it. Fortunately, this Dell factory contains no useless software.

  Thanks for all the help!

• What is the best method to add data to a file stored on a usb flash drive to avoid too many write cycles?

  Hello

  I'm trying to store an important data on a cRIO sampled stream in the USB flash drive.

  I believe that there are two ways to add data to a file:

  1. open the file outside of the loop, then write to the file loop, then close the file outside the loop.

  Pros; More quickly and efficiently than the opening and closing of files in a loop is resource heavy equipment.

  Disadvantages; If the program fails partially through, all data is lost.

  2. open the file, write to the file and close the file, all in the loop.

  With the advantages and disadvantages as opposed to option 1.

  As my cRIO is finally deployed in a hostile environment and data are valuable and processing speed is not an issue of concern in this project, I'm leaning towards option 2, but after a few basic calculations that I realize that I'll be writing/opening/closing the file of thousands of times and I wanted to know if this will wear out the flash memory?

  My uncertainty is due to not understanding what happens when a file is opened written to and closed.  He writes the new data to new areas of the flash, or it write all data on top?  The latter would cause me problems not too long term!

  Any help gratefully received.

  A big thank you and best regards,

  Ed

  The 'magic' is not in the File Format (PDM vs vs binary text), but in the "life" of the file.  This solution creates a file of 24 hours and maintains a different file for each day.  If the USB "dies", you lose everything you have not backed up somewhere.  If the program dies (or errors), you lose the data for the current day.  You end up with multiple files (which can be a more or less), but we must still make the trade-off between (duration) of the file and the file number opens (which relates to your concern for the longevity of the USB).  By the way, I suspect that a good quality USB key (it's what you mean, right?  Or do you mean a hard drive USB powered?  Comments probably apply both) can predict today to not die on you, everything just because you make a lot of reads/writes (of course, you could get in-a-thousand...).

• I lost memory to the usb flash drive space, help me please.

  I formatted 2 gb usb flash drive, and now he has 247 MB of available space.
  in computer SCIENCE, I chose flash drive (E), then right-click on it and choose FORMAT.

  Hello

  1. What is the number of brand and model of the flash player?

  I suggest you plug the flash drive on another computer running on Windows 7 and check if the problem persists.

  You can try to format the drive falash using MS DOS and cehck if that helps.

  (a) click on the start menu

  (b) prompt to type in the start search bar (run as administrator command prompt)

  (c) type "format [drive letter]:" at the command prompt, replace "[drive letter]" by the letter of the drive you want to format.

  (d) then press the Enter"" key. Note that the drive letter must be followed by a colon - for example: "format c:".

  (e) support on 'Y' If you are prompted to confirm if you want to erase everything on the hard drive. Confirm that you want to continue. MS-DOS will start to reformat your hard disk and all data

  on the disc is erased.

  If the problem occurs on another computer as well, then the issue may be with the flash drive corrupted, in this case, you can get in touch with the manufacturer for assistance.

  (I've seen a post or two during the upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit of Vista 32 bit). Could just be a funky DVDROM drive problem. Copy of the files should ignore the issue.

• Laptop HP 17 p100: how the usb flash drive big that I have to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  How the big usb flash drive do I need to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  Yes

  Hello;

  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

  There is really no way accurately guess in advance, with one of the reasons being that the options are available when you do this.  An option creates a recovery drive minimum with what is needed to repair the operating system.  Another option creates an image that is able to completely restore the operating system and its partition.  Thus, the size can vary from 4 GB to the size of the partition to the OS.

  Myself, I found as build-in recovery to be unreliable, especially those of Ms.  So instead, I use a third-party imaging/restoration solution known as Macrium Reflect.

  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

  My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.

  I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!

  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  Good luck

• Split 13 x 2 PCs 13-m110dx: cannot perform the system recovery using a USB flash drive

  I just bought a Split 13 x 2 13-m110dx PC that came with Windows 8. I have upgraded the OS to 8.1 and made a copy of the recovery Partition using a USB flash drive, and deleted the recovery of the PC disk that I learned that I could do. However, when I tried to retrieve OEM provided using the USB flash drive by following the directions at creation and use of a recovery of Microsoft USB drive (Windows 8) "System Recovery" was not available to the title of "troubleshooting." I tried to tell it to boot from the USB, but it askes me to insert the support of windows or other media, but rejects the flash player. What do I do now because I have not all discs?

  To use the Flash created to restore the system to the factory settings, see "Recovering from a USB flash drive" appearing in the following link:

  HP System Recovery allows to reinstall or restore a HP with Windows 8 computer to the way it was at a previous time.

  Hi Nate53,

  ·         You have the latest drivers installed for the computer?

  ·         Have you tried to connect the player to different ports on the same computer?

  Check to see if the following is useful.

  Method 1: Try to reinstall the USB controllers and check if it helps.

  a. click the Start button and then right click on my computer. Click on properties.

  b. click on the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager. Expand the Bus USB controllers section by clicking on the sign «+»

  c. each of the devices under the USB controller section uninstall by right-clicking on each one, then click on uninstall.

  d. close Device Manager, and then restart your computer. Windows XP re - automatically installs the USB controllers in your computer, so you don't have to do anything further. Your computer is now running properly USB devices.

   

  Method 2: Log on to the manufacturer's Web site and update the latest chipset drivers and other updates to the device driver.
