Full volume space

I have a Bay Equallogic PS 6000 box which 6.3 TB total capacity. And storage array firmware version 6.0.6.We are all thin provision enabled in three volumes. Two volumes are used for messaging HA clustered server. On the second server we keep some mail backup using planning. After a few weeks, we found our second volume where we keep weekly backup is full. Then connect us to the server and delete a few TB of data to backup in the volume of connected server. And the server its was showing a lot of free space on the volume, but equallogic web management console it showed same occupied the space on the volume.

I not found all the options in the Equallogic web management console not to offer a free space of the volume.
Table shows very little space please suggest me what command I use to recover my space of volume after the deletion of data.

 

EQL is block storage, and as long as the operating system does not say the SAN that it have something deletet your SAN never have free change of some blocks, and get some space back.  Remember that an operating system in most cases does not delete the data on a disk, but just mark it as deletet and substitute later.

Windows Server 2012 supports the command SCSI cancel the necessary mapping for reclaming on THIN provisioning EQL volume disk space.

For Windows Server 2008 (r2?) HIT EQL brings the eqlrethin.exe you need to run it manually. If you are running VMware vSphere, it depends on the Version how to undo the mapping of works.

You didn't tell us what server OS or hypervisor youre using.

BTW. If your FW 6.0.6 has no emergency path H2 installed pls upgrade to F W6.0.7 urgent.

Kind regards

  • SCOM volume space alert

    I have installed SCOM 2012 R2 and one of the servers with the agent installed was a full Volume.  There was no alert generated and I'm looking for a way to alert when Volumes are full as logical disks.  On Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, in this case to a prompt 'wmic volume get freespace' back shows the free space left on the target volume.  It is one of the many servers with volumes not assigned to the logical drive letters.

    What should I do to receive alerts when the volumes are full?

    After some research I've answered my own question, there is a Managment pack found at update: http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2011/09/30/opsmgr-new-base-os-mp-6-0-6956-0-adds-cluster-shared-volume-monitoring-bpa-and-many-changes.aspx

    This message comes from your mail server, not Windows Mail. Their mailbox is full.

    Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - uncheck: leave a copy of messages on the server and then do a send / a manual reception.

    You may need to connect to e-mail Web site on your server and delete the messages there if you get the warning, but it should be cleared up now.

  • Storage is almost full - other space

    I am a user of iPhone 5 s (ios 9.1). It has been over a year that I'm dealing with a serious problem of storage. Although space is available on my 16 GB phone, my phone always says I have 0 bytes left and 11.7 GB used. When I hook it up to iTunes, 'Other' space is always close to 3 GB. No matter how many photos or apps I'll delete the space never change. I activated iCloud backup too, but nothing changes. So the iphone has been removed all apps passwords and passwords for wifi and safari bookmarks. Furthermore, I can't properly use any application on the device.

    Since most of the problably it is due to a damaged on my device file. Can you please offer no possible solution in order to find the file that is causing the problem and delete it. Any other suggestions would be more than helpful.

    Thank you

    Christos

    The gesture is to restore from a backup, encrypted iTunes. Try this, but if you have corrupted files on the iPhone, they are likely to be part of the backup and that she will be resettled.

    More complicated, time consuming, but full-proof is to reset the iPhone as new and then just sync it with your computer and/or iCloud files.

  • SAN reports nearly full volume. Windows reports volume only 50%

    PS6000 v7.0.9

    2 host of 2012 R2 Hyper V Server Cluster

    The volume is 620GB

    Director of Group reports 525GB in use

    Management of Windows disk and the two report 349GB in use failover cluster manager.

    Why the difference and where/how I have not these 175 GB?

    Because you use iSCSI to the EQL which is a block of storage. The EQL is not that someone gave above deleted. If a deletets OS given it just the brand like deletet in the allocation table.

    Think when formatting a disc format and NOT the quick HELP. The operating system writes zeros and for storage, it looks like valid data... but the OS it will appear as free space later. For the EQL Volume, that means 100% usage.

    Windows 2012R2 supports unmap aka space recovery. It depends on your FW EQL and HIT Version and a few other dependencies as Thinpro Volume on the EQL iirc. With that you say the EQL blocks can be removed to obtain a logical space left.

  • Impossible to format the full Volume - Adaptec 3405

    As you can see, the unit supports and recognizes correctly the volume of 2 TB, but breast of ESXi is impossible to format a VMFS beyond 45.26 GB volume.  It seems that we are stuck in a total of 50 GB of space on a volume of 2 TB.  Someone at - it ideas?

    Your volume TB 2.04, VMware is limited to a size of 2 TB - something more volume that wraps to lose the first 2 TB. Then the 40 GB, you can format is 0.04 CT.

  • How can satellite P500-024 - I do a new partition with full disk space?

    Hello

    I just bought the Satellite P500-024 and it came with 640 GB HARD drive.

    I just found when clicking on * my computer * which is the HARD drive is cut to the drive C: and D: drive. How can I add the D drive half of the HARD drive on the C: drive of priority so there because I then a full accese 640GO HDD in a chase without cutting 50-50?

    The reason why I ask this is because I noticed when I turn on the laptop it takes ages and maybe a bit slower due to the fact that it is half of the hard drive on drive C. So I want to know how it is easy to add them together into one so that I can get fast and pure to my new Satellite P500-024 performance.

    Thank you.

    Hi tagvic!

    First of all I must say that the two partitions have nothing to do with the slow start procedure on your laptop. Your laptop will be no faster if I you have only one partition, made it s! In addition, the second partition is required for Toshiba HDD recovery option. You know about it?

    HARD drive recovery option is really nice. You can restore factory in a few minutes. For it pour l' utiliser use go from the advanced boot menu, and then select Repair my computer. Then, you can select this option and follow the instructions on the screen. The first partition will be deleted, and after that it will have installed an image of factory settings. This means that you return to the same state that you started the laptop, the first time. The operating system preinstalled with already all the drivers and tools are installed.

    In my view, there is another reason for the slow start to the top. You should try to remove Toshiba Tempro. On my computer it causes a slow start too, and after removing the laptop started much faster.
    I can also recommend you to clean the system using CCleaner and defragment the HARD drive. Removal of startup programs folder that you don't need and try another program like AntiVir AntiVirus.

    I hope I could help a bit.

  • volume slider is set at full volume, yet his is barely audible

    Same as above. Slider volume maximum volume, the value of even barely audible sound.

    I see two possibilities. First of all, you may need to increase the volume on the speakers themselves. Secondly, you accidentally plug the speakers in an output jack line instead of the speaker output jack?

But if I lock the pc with reading he kicks with the volume and the quality of the sound. This started after I had my second update Windows 10 (first obtained then did a factory reset because of another problem and installed windows 10 even once).

    I tried the update - lying all the drivers audio and deactivation and activation.

    Is anyone familiar with this problem?

    If your audio system Dolby, check if it is enabled and try to turn it OFF / ON to check for changes.

  • Space in use SAN HQ alert 4.2 on volume

    I've recently been reconfiguration of EQL (1 PS6100, 1 PS4000) customers.  As part of the cleaning and modernization of the former ESXi environment, virtual machines were vMotioned storage of 4000 to 6100 and the4000 reset, reconfigured and added to the 'new' group began with the PS6100.

    The PS6100 is RAID10 and in its own pool of storage, the PS4000 RAID6 and in its own pool of storage.  The PS6100 has a single TB 5.5 thin provisioned volume (total available is 5.75 to), the reconfigured PS4000 has a single 4TB thin volume (total available East of 5.66 to).

    About halfway through to storage quick vMotioning of PS4000 to PS6100 VMS, SANHQ began reports 4.2 warnings of space on the volume of same PS61000 if running in Workgroup Manager of space in use for the volume and the pool was only about 2 TB with him remains marked free.  Once the PS4000 has been revamped and its created volume and about 1.1 to migrate back, this volume has begun to take a 4.2 errors as well.

    SanHQ reports 4.2 errors, the two volumes now that more than 99% complete, even if the Group Manager shows as much less complete volumes - the PS6100 is about 70% full, the PS4000 only 30% full (volume, pool is only 20% full).

    My understanding of thin volumes with VMware is that they grow only represented by how much space has been consumed by the upstream file system (for example, VMware VMFS) and "shrink" only if manually unmap you them (VMware) or run another operating system that automatically cancel the mapping.

    That being the case, none of my thin LUN EQL never showed more than 70 percent use of space (maximum) and some never more than 25% maximum, than even San HQ throws 4.2 errors.   Why?

    Hello

    It is a known issue with SANHQ v3.1.   The next version should exit this month this will resolve this error.  There are several other threads here discuss this issue.  For now, turn off the alerts is best work around.

    Kind regards

  • ESX3i host is not able to use the full LUN disk space

    Hello

    I'm under vmware ESX3i build 143129 and it is connected to a HP MSA 2012 fc SAN.

    The SAN has the latest firmware of HP. I created a new vDisk on the SAN based on RAID6, which leaves me 4 TB of free storage space. Then, I created a new Volume using the full 4 TB. So the new volume should be 4 TB of free space.

    After you create the volume, I logged Client VMI, I made a new analysis of my storage adapters, and I tried to add a data store. While doing so, I examined the available space, which was only 95,69 GB!

    Someone at - it an idea? I would use for my VMFS full storage space...

    I also tried to divide the vDisk in several volumes of 1 TB, which allowed me to get the full space by volume. But I don't want volumes of 1 TB... I want a 4 TB volume...

    Help...

    As Matt said you need to do the smallest LUN due to the limit of 2 TB.  Also if you do a 2 TB LUN and have big virtual hard disks, make sure your block size is correct or you need to rebuild the entire LUN

  • What does the red exclamation point and which would prompt me to now have more free disk space?

    It was getting my full disk space. Up to 1.2 GB to 73 GB. I removed some unnecessary files and programs up to 4.6 GB. Last night my internet was running very slow and I got a message that says that my disk space is full. I went to the Explorer, who intends to seek more to remove offline. To my surprise, it showed that I have 38 GB of free space. At the same time however, some (not all) of my desktop icons now have a red exclamation mark on them. There are some that are shortcuts, jpg files and doc files. That means the red exclamation that tempt me to now have more free disk space?

    I would just be guessing really. He could have files, online backup was queued up. It may be something to do with the shadow copy of Volume. If I use cleaning disc with the option all users and delete restore Points and shadow copies on the tab "More options", I'll be back about 15 GB on a disc of similar size. The effect is only temporary, until they accumulate again.

  • iPhone 6 more Volume issue helmet

    iPhone 6 Plus, iOS9.3.5: last week I had the unfortunate experience of playing a song in my music player of Apple with my buddies from the ear, only to play at full volume. Ouch. Today I plugged my headphones (headphones) and deliberately the volume value that says "volume headphones' to 2 bars. My open music player and pressed play. Music played at full volume! Ouch, Ouch. Has anyone else had this experience? Being a loyal user of Apple, I thought that I should perhaps report it as a bug, but couldn't find a way to provide this feedback to them. Interested in your thoughts.

    Have you already Force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again? You won't lose data.

    After this test again to play music.
