  • Instant VMDK files do not delete after deleting snapshots

    Hi - I have a server SLES/OES2 with two discs - 75 and 750 GB.  I deleted a few shots after that test app and I'm back to instant No.  The data store always shows two files VMDK - server_1 - 000001.vmdk (17 GB) and server_1 - 000002.vmdk (56 GB).  The second is still active in this sound change timestamp.

    This is the last section of the VMX file:

    debugStub.linuxOffsets = "0x2d1ac, 0xffffffff, 0 x 0 0 x 0, 0xc58223b, 0x0, 0xc582254, 0x0, 0x2d1a8, 0 x 0 0 x 0 0 x 0, 0xc58226c, 0 x 0"

    scsi0:1.filename = "SSS-SLES-TEST_1 - 000002.vmdk.

    scsi0:1.mode = "persistent".

    scsi0:1.ctkEnabled = "FALSE".

    scsi0:1.DeviceType = "scsi-disk" hard

    scsi0:1.present = 'TRUE '.

    scsi0:1.redo = «»

    I got 32 GB free in the data store until I deleted snapshots, then he went to 0 GB free!  I deleted ISO files, and now it's up to 3.7 GB free. The total data store is 1.36 TB

    There were not errors when deleting sanpshot - although it took awhile.

    All this started because I had forgotten that this VM had snapshots and I started to copy the data to the server and got a warning that server_1 - 000001.vmdk was full and remove the space.

    I don't think that the virtual machine is healthy!  Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    You can try to power down the virtual machine, taking another cliché and with a bit of luck the entire tree of the snapshot will be detected. After that, keep the VM down and try to delete all snapshots.

  • Too many files VMDK

    Hi all

    I have a server with a strange problem that I need help with.  This is a security camera server that keeps locked up due to a hard drive problem.  We have a data reader assigned as drive F, and from time to time, it goes to a point that the server crashes.  When troubleshooting, I found that the drive F is not available.  The quick fix is for me to just delete this player and add another.  Problem now is that there is a flat file and 4 or trust of the delta files on a drive that is no longer there. I put the new disk in another data store. There is also a file VMDK has a curious name... camera - ctk.vmdk.  There is no hard drive with this name.   They are eliminated without any problem or is there a specific way to go about getting rid of them?

    If the flat file and delta is no longer needed, you can certainly delete. However, if you are not 100% sure, it might be a good idea to move the files to a temporary/new directory to see if everything continues to work as expected and then - remove them at a later date. The -ctk.vmdk file is the file that is used for the modified block (CBT), follow-up. One of these files exist for each virtual disk where CBT is activated. You can remove this file if the associated virtual disk no longer exists.

  • Safari opens the help file for Messages of the application in opening

    I hope someone can help, it's driving me crazy!

    Everytime I open Safari after the reboot, a page opens with the 'Ayuda de messages' text and nothing else. The address in the address bar is ces/es.lproj/index.html file:///Applications/Messages.app/Contents/Resources/iChat.help/Contents/Resour pointing to a help file in the Messages application. I opened the package and I tried to delete this file as an experiment, but he says that it is a system file and cannot be deleted.

    Does anyone know how to find out what is the cause and stop it? And no, my home page is not defined at this address

    Thanks in advance!

  • Why files are not deleted in research appearing in the trash?

    I went to search - files/folders. JPG - and there were 6,000 points---(mon fils m'a dit de vérifier là)

    -When I play OKBridge - all the people on the bridge were there---(j'ai laissé un message OK à ce sujet)

    I used shift - delete to delete them all, but they are not in the trash - please help - KC222

    SHIFT + delete deletes the files selected without moving them to the trash. You will need to use data recovery software to recover these files.

    When a file is deleted in this way, it is actually marked as unused space on your hard drive. Windows can replace the files during normal use, making them unrecoverable. It is therefore important to use your computer as little as possible until what they are retrieved. There are several data recovery on the strong programs - do a search on the web for them.

    Finally a tip for the future, if all the data are important to support you.

  • EULA.RTF files can be deleted?

    I have 30 of these files and want to remove them and just leave them alone. I got the error as the eula.rtf file cannot be deleted. Does anyone have a solution?

    Hello lwgreen,

    The eula.rtf file are End User License Agreement. They are stored on your drive when you install applications. The reason why you can't delete the files, is that you don't have the property rights to the files.
    To change the property:
    Right click on the folder parent of these files and do a right click on this folder.
    Click on properties.
    Click the Security tab.
    Click the Advanced button.
    You will need to change the property using change of ownership to your user name.
    Once you are the owner of the folder and all subfolders and files, you can delete them.

    I hope this helps.

    Sincerely,

  • FILE cannot BE DELETED, the file size of the file type 'file' "0 bytes"

    I downloaded a music file of myfreemp3.eu, he wasn't .mp3.  He was able to play a couple of times, but now does not open.  Now, I can't move or delete it from the downloads folder, system do not see.  its properties are of TYPE 'file' and SIZE '0 bytes. "  Error message is "unable to find this article. It is no longer in xxx, etc.

    I tried many suggestions to remove it without success.

    I have Vista 2007 service pack 2.  I tried in safe mode, tried to move to another folder, tried to run without windows, search, folder to never display thumbnails, tried Mandrake Move, but it was outdated, orders back cmd has tried to delete. Also tried to delete with disabled explorer.exe.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you Ganesh and Hetti.  I just finally deleted my ghost file.  I used the safe mode and cmd.

    I went into the directory of downloads in the BACK, the used command DIR / X to find out the name of the file.

    He was ~ 1 at the end of the file name.   I used DEL filename ~ 1 and the file disappeared.  I checked the

    trash and he wasn't there either.  I rebooted the computer and found no trace of the file.

    The controls were as follows,

    CD C:\users\my name\downloads

    dir / x (to find the full file name,)

    del (to remove the file)

    I could probably use alternative command

    del *. *.

    Thank you again and maybe it helps someone else.  I ran the control with the repair disc, but that did not remove the ghost file.  I could also not delete the downloads folder.  Create the same named file with 0 bytes not working anymore.  I tried the latest version of Mandrake then.

    Hi Joyce,

    Method 1
    I suggest to delete Temp files and see if that helps.

    a. Click Start.
    (b) in the search bar type % temp %, and then open the temp folder.
    c. delete all files in the temp folder.

    Method 2
    I suggest you to scan SFC. Scan SFC will be scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

  • How can I find my file if I delete in the trash

    Hi Amy,

    I think that either you have use shift + delete to remove the folder or used to empty the trash after you delete the folder.

    If you have one of this method then it is not possible to recover your data easily.

    You perform a search on Google for Data Recovery Software to recover your data.

    Hope this will help you.
