Hi all, I need to understand why my VMs will always grow so big they eventually run out of disk space, and then I can't resize them...

• Running out of disk space and the need to remove the old clichés

  I recently joined a company owning an ESXi 4.1.0 (build 260247) server with 4 500GB data warehouses.  One of our servers main database (Ubuntu/Postgres), which uses only one of the data warehouses (4 datastore) has 21GB 465 GB free.  It is currently configured to store all settings, storage and snapshots on this unique data store.  The hard disk is configured as thin.

  The virtual machine has crashed a few days ago, when it ran out of disk space.  We removed a small second partition (which was in the same data store) and cleared space, but we receive extremely weak with only 5% of the data left store.

  I have read many posts and wanted to get the opinion of this community before I move forward.   Because we do not use the 4.1 last I heard some issues using the option "Remove all" that it may require more disk space and others recommended to manually delete snapshots from the closest to the base, but it seems that in this case it can merge the snapshot with the original without freeing all the space.

  We are not all of the snapshots and I'm fine with delete them, but I assure you we will not run out of disk space in the process and complicate things further.

  It is best to manually remove these snapshots starting with the one closest to the base or by using the "Delete All" (or something else)?  In addition, if we go with the manual option, is it possible with the virtual machine upward or do we need to close first?

  Current snapshots:

  Welcome to the community,

  After the screenshot, your virtual disk 'arrow_db1.vmdk' stocked thickness!

  With the thick disc service and ESXi 4.1 (the problem with "Delete All" is related to version 4.0), you can run safely "Delete All". However, due to low disk space, I recommend that do you with the virtual machine off. If turned on, a new temporary snapshot will be created, which - according to the workload of the virtual machine - can grow and fill in the data store.

  Due to the size of snapshot and depending on the speed of your storage space, you need to plan a few hours well downtime.

• out of disk space and don't know why

  My drive c says it's 50.6 GB but I only 2.66 GB free. I deleted all my pictures and music, etc. but it makes virtually no difference. I ran the disk clean etc and also run microsoft fix it solution. I don't know where my space has disappeared. Can someone help me please?

  Possible causes

  1. The very lower partition size.
  2. The quarantine antivirus files.
  3. My documents folder consumes more space.
  4. All e-mail client store file takes more space.
  5. Incorrect virtual memory settings.
  6. Can be put into hibernation enabled.
  7. Files and temporary files.
  8. Any system connects or export files.
  9. Huge Application programs.

  Check the size of the Pchealth folder. Under Pchealth folder shows 2 files named QHEADLES and QSIGNOFF. Delete the files if it consumes more space.

• Too much upload-need to understand why

  MacBook Air (4 GB, 1.7 GHz) became slower in the last two months or today, it wasn't usable all the afternoon. Finally, I used "Clean my Mac" about a month ago.  I have 34 free GB to 120 GB of storage. Off iCloud. Called ISP - they said that the download has been the most out of my house. Off the Mac. They said it happened again. I don't know what is happening. Thank you for any help or advice.

  Any client on a network, including wireless clients, you don't know, could be the consumption of bandwidth. Networks Wi - Fi must be protected with WPA2 security. If yours is not, please modify the security on the access point setting. If it is already defined in this way, change the password. Make a chain of at least 8 random characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers. The password is saved in the keychain and you don't have to remember it. in fact, you should not be able to remember.

  You make these changes in AirPort Utility, if the access point is an Apple device or in a web browser otherwise.

  If the network or the password was precarious, and bandwidth utilization returns to normal after it, you can be sure that the problem was caused by intruders.

  But the intrusion may not be the question. Most of BitTorrent, iCloud, Dropbox or another application of data on clouds intervenes when mysterious bandwidth by a Mac using. If you use iCloud, please uncheck at least iCloud in its pane preferably by car and see if there is no change. If you use a backup software or the third-party network file-synchronization, disable that. If you use a torrent client, remove it.

  Otherwise, if you're running OS X 10.9 or later, you can see which processes are most active on the network.

  Launch the activity monitor application in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Select all processes in the view menu, if not already selected, and also select the network tab.

  Click on the header of the column of bytes transmitted in the process table to sort the entries of the bandwidth. You may have to click twice to get the highest value at the top. What is and what is the process? Repeat with column bytes Rcvd.

• I have 2 separate servers, 2 databases running with 2 packages of the apex. Can I merge them all on a single server/database?

  Hello.

  Currently I have two servers each with an oracle database, each of them is running apex and offers a package that people use to interact with data through Web pages.

  I want to merge these two servers into one to save on costs, which means that 1 Server 1 database... with 2 packets of the apex. Is this possible? I guess I would need to export/import the whole package and to migrate database schema, but I will say a default package a schema and a single default package to another scheme? I don't understand workspaces so maybe that's where the question is rooted.

  APEX applications are similar/different?

  You can do the following:

  • Import the schema (data) of base2 in database1.
  • You can associate multiple schemas to a workspace. For example, you can associate the schema imported into your workspace (in database1).

  Reference: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E59726_01/doc.50/e39151/adm_mg_wrkspc.htm#BABCEBIE

  • Then, you can export the APEX of base2 workspace application and import this request to the workspace from base1.
  • Access the newly imported application. Change the attributes of the Application -> Security-> database Session and define the Schema of the analysis to the newly imported schema.

• All the editing options appear disabled when you compose the message, impossible to copy & paste, etc they are grayed out in the menu and do not work in a mouse right click

  Change options - Undo, redo, copy, paste, paste without formatting work, is that they are shaded out in the Edit menu and do not work on the right click of the mouse. I disabled add ons, run in safe mode, go out and restarted but the problem persists. Can anyone help urgent please.

  Mine are greyed out until they can do something. So they're all gray until I have started typing, pasting is grayed if there is nothing on the Clipboard and copy / cut are gray until I have select something.

  Yours are always grey, even after doing these other things?

• Is there a way to store your music, photos and podcasts in iCloud, until you need it on iPhone?  I'm running out of storage space, but have a lot in iCloud.

  I received an alert from Apple stating my storage was used almost to the top (of course I should have bought an iPhone with the largest storage) so I bought more storage iCloud.  I can't seem to move something there well and then download what I need.  The iCloud icon was always there to use when I got my iPod.  How to make this work on my iPhone?

  The iCloud is a synchronization mechanism rather wide storage unit - if you want to stuff the device turned off but accessible in the 'cloud' watching Google Drive or OneDrive
