Get the size of the file for a particular file in a data store

I was wondering if it was possible to get the size of a particular file on a data store. It seems that this should be trivial, but I'm new to PowerCLI and I see not all the properties of size when I invoke the cmdlet:

  • How can I get the size of the files in a data store?

    I use the file dsbrowse.pl as a starting point for gathering information on the data stores for different scheduled reports.

    A new requirement must provide the size of each file found in a data file store.

    Someone there guides, pointers or code they can share?

    Thank you.

    All this information is available using the API of vSphere specifically: *SearchDatastoreSubFolders_Task() , which allows all types of complex queries, including a specific type of files, models, etc..

    Take a look at this script: listDatastoreFiles.pl

  • VStorage different Motion - copy of the file on a data store vmdk

    Hi all

    Hoping that someone will be able to help with a problem I have right now.

    Configuration:

    NetApp SAN - vmfs data warehouses.

    Data for the migration store is synchronous to a recovery site.

    I planned a day to the next task to migrate a VMDK virtual machines to a non synchronous Datastore to synchronous data store.  When I arrived yesterday morning - the virtual machine has been turned on - but I couldn't access the console and migration was still sitting 89% full.

    Checked the Netapp Filer and found the copy of the snapshot is greater than the instant space on the volume.

    SnapMirror suspend and break.  Delete the copy of Netapp snapshot on the volume.  Once I had done this on the Netapp file server - virtual machine has begun to respond to ping and I was able to access the console.

    I restarted the VM Windows - to make sure everything was fine - as the date / time on the server was out of sync with the date and time - so again, I am happy that my virtual machine is now in place and running.

    Problem. : I migrated virtual disks - one both of the old data store to the new - no problems - until I'm gone make the last record and felt that there is not enough space on the data store - now it would have taken and further investigation found that the virtual disk I wanted to migrate — was already sitting on the new data store.

    Check the settings on the virtual machine shows that the file in question vmdk is still sitting on the old data store - but - I also have a copy of the vmdk - same size etc. - file sitting on the new data store.

    RVtools displays the disk on the new data as a Zombie VMDK store.

    Question: What vmdk file is the one I need to remove?  I think about the new data store - in addition, shown as a zombie in RVTools vmdk - also, shows only not the settings of the virtual machine.

    All find what vmdk file, the system uses permanently.

    Thank you very much

    Open the .vmx file and check the path to your vmdk here.

    If you can, backupo the VMDK at both ends before going any further.

    as the VC (and I hope that the .vmx), as well as RVtools indicate that the destination is a zombie. . I would lean towards this being the one to delete.

    In theory, if you use the browser to store data to try to remove a new and it's in use, you will get an error message, so if it removes OK, you should be good to continue from where you were before.

    Good luck.

  • Move the location of the VM swap file in another data store

    Hi all

    Was in a task to move the 1000 to the file location of VM swap on another data store which is newly assigned to Exchange us to the existing store database file that will be decommissioned.

    Eager to check if anyone has made movement swap of VM location of the files to a data store to another and that all measures taken to move.

    Require some VM downtime?

    Thanks in advance a ton.

    Yes it is possible without interruption of service to virtual machines.

    1. make sure that your cluster is configured to use swap data store specified by host

    2. take a host in the cluster in maintenance mode, change the location of the VM configuration file to point to the new data store

    3. do this for all hosts in the cluster

    When you vMotion a VM from one host to another the swap file will get moved to the new data store. Later when you take guests to the maintenance and return output mode, vMotion occurs for each computer in the cluster virtual and file is moved.

  • Is it possible to get the files for windows vista, so I can reinstall my system?

    Hello

    Im a user of linux on one machine HP Pavilion dv5-1095eo leisure. IM tired to restart my machine to run a windows OS, so is possible for me to get the files for windows vista. I got the windows key attached under the computer and I don't have any windows CD when I brought the machine.

    Hello:

    You can do your own installation disc Vista too if you wish.

    If you can read your 25-character product key MS, you can make your own Windows Vista installation disc. You just download the 3 files you need on the link below and read all the instructions to create a Setup bootable DVD disk using imageburn.

    When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message on a WIM file, file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.

    I selected no, make the ISO file.

    It was not so hard to do. I burned both the disk of 64-bit and 32-bit disk in case I ever need them.

    I tested both of them (just before going forward with the actual facility) and they seem to work perfectly.

    Apparently, when you enter the product key, he knows which version of Vista you have.

    http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-Microsoft-Windows-VI...

    After you have successfully installed vista, you can download the drivers you need your PC support and driver page.

    (Even once - keep the * first conversation * going.)  Written on it.  Show how this conversation continues spreading around.)

    BTW - my suggestion has not changed.  I still think that you get just around issues that still exist, probably, by fixing the little things you need at a given time.

    Backup important files/folders (for you) (including documents, photos, music, Favorites, Internet favorites, files installable application, serial numbers, product keys, spreadsheets, you saved to the desktop email, etc.) and wipe the disc completely - I'd even a zero writing on the disc (formatting) before installing the operating system from the original installation media.  Then install your applications and restore your files.

    As to what they were asked to do... Always seems that you saved the file as a *. TXT file and not a *. REG or there is much more wrong with your machine (see my suggestion above.)

    Visit this web page to look at the photo on the left (a first) to see the screenshot of the possible is the desktop icons and let us know if it looks like the left or right of each photo version (answer here or in the longer conversation.)  * Ignore the first part of the file name - as you might have named something else than "addspooler."

    To check if you saved incorrectly or if there is something wrong with your system (or two) - right click on the file you saved and choose 'Properties' from the menu you get.  Under the 'Général' tab, she said, "file Type: registration entries (.reg)" and "opens with: Registry Editor" or something similar?  Visit this web page to look at the picture on the right (second) to see the screenshot of the possible look at the windows of the property and let us know if it looks like the left or right of each photo version (answer here or in the longer conversation.)  * Ignore the first part of the file name - as you might have named something else than "addspooler."

  • Can't get the driver for 32-bit windows 7 HP DeskJet 5440 via windows update.

    Original title: driver HP DeskJet 5440 windows 7 32 bit

    I was unable to get the driver for 32-bit windows 7 HP DeskJet 5440 via windows update.  I also was unbale to find your compatibility Center.  Is there a link were I can down-load the driver directly from.

    Tony,

    In fact, I assumed that yours was always supported by HP * but I understand now that it's not [so I guess that it is more than 10 years because it is their general support period].  {* Mine is a DJ 2540 and is only a few years so I thought a 5440 DJ must be more recent}

    I see that HP gives you general instructions on installing drivers in http://support.hp.com/gb-en/product/hp-deskjet-5440-printer-series/445466/model/445467/document/c01796879/ I checked Microsoft update catalog service and nothing found for HP Deskjet 5440, that's why you're not having any success with the generic instructions, giving you these instructions seem to presuppose the existence of a Windows driver for this specific model.  {HP must have given up your specific model before that this catalogue has been compiled, because hardware manufacturers are those that connect to their drivers inside}

    However, my suggestions may solve your problem or maybe not.  They are simply the steps that seem more likely to be successful.  Personally, I'd a system image before you try each of these suggestions so that you can go back to square one if something goes terribly wrong.

    Suggestion 1 - go to the devices & Printers dialog box, click Add a printer, select HP then select HP Deskjet 5400 series [the sequence in the list is awkward, this entry is about 10% of the way to the bottom of the list], click on Next and follow the procedure of menus at its conclusion.  Even if it's completely successful, plan to run my Suggestion 4 below as well in case of future need.

    Suggestion 2 - out whatever the driver that shipped with your printer in the first place, try to install in compatibility mode [right click on its executable, click on the tab compatibility , the value of the check box for run this program in compatibility mode for... and select a BONE the printer worked correctly with.]  Then go to the executable, right-click and select run as administrator.  This idea is not frivolous, until he blew something internally, I was using my 1999/2000 HP Deskjet 1220C successfully on Windows 7 x 64 for four years [despite the HP user forums which implies that this was not possible].

    Suggestion 3 - go back to the HP site to http://support.hp.com/gb-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-deskjet-5440-printer-series/445466/model/445467 but select 10 Windows as your operating system.  In the results, the Diagnostics Utility Tools point contains now a setup generic [hppiw.exe] who described "HP for Windows printer setup wizard was created to help users Windows 10 download and install the software solution most appropriate for their printer and newer HP HP Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1.   Simply run the tool and follow the on-screen instructions. " Download & run [run as Admin] of this file.

    Suggestion 4 - Connect to an Admin-level account first, then, using IE [there than IE], date back to the Microsoft update service catalog and search for HP Deskjet 5400 series.  It will give a lot of results, then click on the driver name in the left column of title to see details for each potential choice [especially if it is 32 or 64 bit].  The top of the list is [32-bit] Microsoft Update for HP Deskjet 5400 Series driver dated June 21, 2006.  [You might also download & file the second element, the 64-bit version, just in case you change computers in the future]  Add the chosen driver [s] to the "trash" then download - you will be asked to select a file to download first {it is at this stage that the process would be a break without further explanation or any error if you had not been connected to an Admin-level account before launching IE}.  I think that these drivers also work with Windows 10 thus, in the hope that your printer works for the years to come, it would be well worth your copies of maintenance of them filed there ready for your next computer use.

    Proposal 5 - go [back] to the forums of user HP Deskjets & find 5440.  See if any of the other suggestions can help you - unless you have already looked through them all the more relevant [I realize that you have been here once already as one of the threads that I just watched was of you].

    We know, in advance, which of these suggestions will lead to the best possible solution.  So please come back to this forum to explain what happened when you tried the.  Your experiences will benefit all users of HP Deskjet 5440 who come here looking for advice.

    Good luck
