Good 'size' of 2 TB LUN for ESX

• Add VNX LUN for ESX

  I am trying to add VNX LUN 4 to our production 4.0\ESXi ESX VMware environment 5.  Each logic unit number is 1024 GB - we want two 2 TB VMFS3 data warehouses.  In vCenter, I created the first 1024 GB data store.  When

  try to add a measure for the 2nd LUN 1024 GB I noticed that the # display in vCenter LUN was not the same thing as what shows the VNX.  I have published a couple of new analysis all orders, but still see the same

  difference in the numbering of the logical unit number.  Should is this normal - I worry?  THX.

  There may be an incompatibility between the ESXi and storage you... have you checked the IVNSJ for identification?

  You can check the host lun id in your storage space?

  You should think about creating a LUN 2 x 2 TB (and 2 data without extensions stores) instead of 4 x 1 TB LUN (and 2 warehouses of data with 2 Extensions)

• Good size of disk RAID 1 for Time Machine

  I have a Mac Mini with a Fusion 1 TB drive. What is the recommended size for a backup drive in a RAID 1 using Time Machine configuration?

  The general consensus is that player TM (or readers in your case) should be twice the size of Mac disk.

  Take a look on > http://pondini.org/TM/1.html

  and then for Intel RAID > http://pondini.org/TM/2.html

  I use a mixed bag of backups, relying more on several clones CarbonCopyCloner as Time Machine for two reasons.

  1. If you have no problem with boot drive, you can start a CCC clone and continue working.

  2. it is faster and easier to restore from a clone of the CCC, rather than re - install OS X and then restore data from TM.

• Unable to connect to target iSCSI for ESX 3.5

  Hi all

  I have an esx 3.5 build 82663 (update 1). We took over this company, so we are migrating this data center. I understand tha patch isn't 5 update but it wasn't our environment and we try to turn it on.

  We have three esx servers

  (1) console production svc - 192.168.7.x

  (2) storage network - 192.168.9.x

  EqualLogic 3)-192.168.9.x

  (4) storage Switch - CISCO 3750 Switch

  (5) frames enabled on vswitch, vmknic, physical, switch, network interface cards, table vlan and storage.

  (6) software iscsi client allowed an outgoing connection through 3260 (tcp)

  Performed troubleshooting

  esxcfg-vmknic - l - seems ok and with activated jumbo frames

  esxcfg-NICS - l - looks ok with activated jumbo frames

  esxcfg-vswitch - l - looks ok with activated jumbo frames

  esxcfg-road - l - (looks good)

  192.168.7.0 255.255.255.0 local subnet

  192.168.9.0 255.255.255.0 local subnet

  by default 0.0.0.0 192.168.7.1

  Works of vmkping between the storage network interfaces (192.168.7.x) i.e. physical switch, equallogic, and other interfaces for esx storage network.

  vmkping s 9000 192.168.9.11 (equallogic san) works without packet loss.

  Ping does not work between interfaces.

  Ping of physical switch to the san and esx equallogic storage network interfaces work

  Access to LUNS equallogic shared among interfaces are restrticted by the ip address of storage network (192.168.9.x). The LUNS they check marks against them to have several initiators communicate with them.

  No enabled chap authentication anywhere.

  I had another server with the same configuration connection to it without problems to the only difference is esxi can be accessed and the esx servers cannot access.

  Our environment has been only esxi. This is the first time I use esx and a system of update 1 for iSCSI.

  I'm on the critical path to complete the project.

  It would be useful that I can get all the help you can.

  See you soon,.

  Knockaert

  If I'm not mistaken in your service console needed to have access to the storage network 3.5 too.  Try to configure a second service on the storage network console and see if you can view the LUNS.   Can also be useful to filter through the vmkernel logs and see if you notice any errors.

• What is a good way to use the queues for the model of consumers/producers?

  Hi all

  I am following the model of consumers/producers to use the queue to synchronize the following process: the producer is a loop to produce a number N, I will put each number generated in a table and after each 5 numbers generated, I put the table in the queue and pass it on to the consumer. I have to wait the use by consumers of the data and it will then remove the item from queue so that producers will have the chance to produce another 5 numbers. As I put the maximum size of the queue one, I expect that the producer and the consumer turns to produce / consume all five numbers and the opportunity to another. Here is my code

  

  When the checkbox is false, the code will be

  

  For the first 5 numbers, product will generate every thing right and put it in the table, and it's going to pass the array to the quere so that the consumer will have the chance to loop through the table. I except the procude loop will continue only when the queue is available (i.e. all items are deleted), but it seems that once the consumer starts the loop loop of the product will continue (if the indicator x + 1 and x 2 will be changed to numbers). But this isn't what I want, I know there must be something wrong, but I can't say it is.

  As you say in 1, sequency structure to enforce the order of execution, that's why I put it here, in this example, the simple question, I replace the complete code with increase in the number, in the real case, the first markers + 1 and + 2 must be performed in this order.

  Mikeporter says:
  1. get rid of all the structures of the sequence. None of them are nothing but apply a work order which would have been the same without them.

  So even if you delete the sequence structure, there will be a fixed & defined order and it is because LabVIEW follows the MODEL of FLOW OF DATA.

  Data flow model (more precisely in the context of LabVIEW): a block diagram node runs when it receives the required inputs. When a node is running, it produces output data and transmits data to the next node in the path of the data stream. The flow of data on the nodes determines the order of execution of the VIs and functions on the block diagram (click here for reference).

  Now in your code, just remove the sequence structure will not make you order will be going to stay the same, but you need to do some very minor changes (as thread of the error in loop, before that he go to the node "Élément Dequeue").

  Come to the main point: it's a good way to use the queue for the consumer/pmodel that?
  The model you are using (and qualifying as consumer/pmodel) is much too deviated from the original consumer/pmodel which model.

  dragondriver wrote:

  For the second, Yes, it's my fault for delete, though. I'm actually the example of model of producer/consumer design pattern, but I do not pay attention to the while loop in the part of the consumer.

  While loops (two producers & consumers) are the essential part of this architecture and cannot be deleted. You can start your code using standard model.

• paper is incompatible - paper of good size, but I'm only using letter size as always

  View on printer HP rpet paper is incompatible - paper of good size, but I'm only using letter-size as always - nothing has changed.  The paper sensor is not working?

  You posted your message in the Microsoft answers Feedback forum.  I moved to the forum 'Hardware and drivers', even if this isn't the only forum where a question like yours could agree.

  The error means that you try to print a document for which you chose a type of paper or a paper size other than what you have loaded in the printer.  It is an attribute of the print job, not something on your printer.  When you print, you can choose printing preferences you have chosen paper other than 'Letter' or anything that is in your printer.

• The size of the default Image for the Animations in Photoshop

  Yesterday, I asked what would be the default good size for static images, and someone suggested that 1920 X 1080 pixels is the standard "a normal high-def video."

  So I did a bunch of images with this dimension and imported into a new project. When I have them of drugs on the chronology and the preview in the upper right quadrant (I can't remember the term for this part of the workspace - 'Read'?)-I discovered that my images are a bit too big, or the preview window is a bit too small.

  I can easily go back and simply redimensionneront these images in Photoshop, which makes them a bit smaller. But I want to understand what is happening, for later use. It is a common practice to make your images 1920 X 1080 pixels, but leave on 50 to 100 pixels of padding around them? Or is there a different default size should I use? Or is it possible to tell if my monitor to preview/reading is cropping the view?

  I must point out that I am working on my first video and it didn't include not just any what real video footage at all. I imported simply an audio file, and I'm not adding a series of fixed/static images, like a slide show. When it's over, I would try and replace the opening with a short video sequence, but that's another project.

  Thank you.

  I think I solved the problem. I discovered that my default setting was much smaller than the recommended default value (1920 X 1080), so I changed it to 1920 X 1080. The images I create in Photoshop are the same size, resolution 72. I discovered that if an image touches the border of the screen to work, it will be heavily truncated. So I created guides that indicate an area of 100 pixels of padding broad around my image. I also discovered a feature that does the same thing first ('Lines of magic', I think).

  I didn't realize a finished video yet, but things looked OK when I preview the. Thank you.

• Change the path information for ESX ESXi hosts to access

  Hello all! I hope you guys can help me.

  I have about 47 hosts that I need to change it Round Robin storage path information. If I make the change in vCenter and restart the host it again changing fixed. So, I thought that I should change it to the level of the host through esxicli.

  I have about twice as many LUNS of the Hitachi SAN. I'd like to see if it is possible to make the change in all areas, in some way, or I need to make the change by host? Also, is there anything that I need to change sides San so that it works or not.

  I saw this VMware KB: modification of path information for ESX/ESXi hosts to access and assume that it is the best plan? But did not know of all put into custody, if necessary, that everyone ran to when doing this?

  You will need to make the change by the host and the KB you'll find is the right method.

• What size a SSD need me for media Cache in Premiere Pro

  Hi all

  I wonder how great an ssd, I need for my cache of media in first pro. I'll just use the ssd for media cache and nothing else. What is usually a good size?

  All the best

  Kevin

  Interesting question.

  It depends on how many times you clean.

  If you are before an a whole project to a person of time as I am, and your projects are not two hours long feature films and you restore ove and above, then you should be OK with 256G.

  I just looked and the file cache and preview my Premiere Pro are only taking up to 50 GB for now. (Half a dozen projects worth of cache)

  My After Effects cache is only 35 GB. That said, I don't have to make my Premiere Pro projects very often because I try to stick to hardware accelerated effects.

• VMware ESXi for ESX 4

  Hello

  Someone know if can I upgrade my ESX 3i (3.5.0) to VMware vSphere (ESX 4)?

  Thank you

  You can't spend of ESX ESXi... ESX to ESX and ESXi for ESXi only... At least, not as an 'upgrade '. Provided that your host is on the HCL for ESX/ESXi 4 (u1 as well), then you can install it. This will be a facility of cleaning/charges however, wiping the LUN which ESX is installed on.

  You might want to stay on ESXi however, given that ESX is pretty much going to end with the 4.x releases (at least this is what I mean)... The released product in 2011 only is not available in two flavors, just ESXi...

  The ESX CLI, consider using the device of vMA and element vSphere CLI on your vCenter Server installation. You can also install the PowerCLI element to win these CLI scripting options.

• solution for ESX iSCSI SAN

  Hello.

  We are looking into getting a SAN iSCSI for ESX.

  On readers, y at - there a big difference between sata and sas and sas 10K vs 15K?

  How iSCSI performance are compared to the SAN fiber?

  Can you guys recommend an iSCSI solution right?

  Excerpt from Dell PS4000 and it seems to be a good product.

  (On players, is there a big difference between sata and sas and sas 10K vs 15K?)

  Yes, 15 k SAS are faster and a bit more expensive, but worth it!

  (How iSCSI performance are compared to the fiber SAN?)

  ISCSI SAN is not as fast as the fiber, but compared to the local drive is a big improvement for your applications, users, etc.

  (You guys can recommend a good iSCSI solution?)

  Personally, I think Dell equallogic are great! PS600XV is what I put in place.

• It is good to turn on the printer for a long time?

  Hi all

  It is good to turn on the printer for a long time? It causes health and ink?
  Thank you

  Hi AhamedSajad,

  Are there specific that appeal to you?

  Turn on the printer for a long time would not adversely affect his health. Nor does it affect the ink somehow.
  The ink could get used only when you use the printer to print.
   
  I hope this helps.

• ERROR: Cannot get the size of the logical block for spfile

  Ran across the following error in the log of alerts for a the 2 node RAC database:

  ERROR: Cannot get the size of the logical block for spfile "+ XXXXXX_SYSTEM/XXXXXX/spfileXXXXXX.ora".

  Looked in MOS and found nothing.  Has anyone go through this before?  If so, what is the cause?

  Just received a resolution of Support from Oracle.  They said that this is a benign error and can be ignored.  Here is their answer to my SR:

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  OK, after reviewing all that there seems to be no problem to fix. All configurations are correct. We believe that these errors are benign and can be ignored.

  COMMENTS

  ===============

  -L' ASM instance is online.

  -The Diskgroup: + XXXXXX_SYSTEM is mounted and has the physical and logical of 512 bytes sector size.

  -No error message in the alerts ASM journal.

  In light of the facts above, the message "ERROR: could not get the size of the logical block for spfile" seems benign and can be ignored.

  However, to avoid these messages, as a workaround, you can try creating the spfile pfile '+ XXXXXX_SYSTEM/XXXXXX/spfileXXXXXX.ora' and then try to create spfile diskgroup + XXXXXX_SYSTEM using this file pfile.
