Host drive ran out of place now VMDK needs to be repaired

Last night, when the process of backup inside my VM launched the host drive ran out of space.

This morning, the virtual machine has been closed and it won't start.

I get an error "could not open the disk < the VMDK file name > or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.»

Reason: the specified virtual disk must be repaired. »

I've made room on the host drive now, but still, the virtual machine does not boo.t

I ran vmware - vdiskmanager.exe - R on the vmdk file, but it was impossible to fix.

I have a few questions:

1. are there in all cases to repair the virtual machine?

2. can I go back to the virtual machine to a previous snapshot and apply my backups to be updated?

3. should I give up the virtual machine and start over? Not pretty, but I can do it.

I'm under VMare Workstation 7.1.0 build 261024.

The VM OS is Windows XP SP3

The host is Windows Vista Business 64.

Any help or pointers would be great.

Thank you

Rick

In the files in the folder, it seems that your VM was left in a suspended state that now may cause a problem.

What I would say to do is:

  • Close VMware Workstation or at least the virtual machine to ensure that the files are not in use
  • Edit the vmx file and set ide0:0.fileName = XP_Pro_Test-0-cl2 - 000017.vmdk (already mentioned by Ulli)
  • Delete the following files:
    all the .lck files folders
    VMware-vmx - 904.dmp
    XP_FedComp.vmem
    XP_FedComp.VMSs
    XP_FedComp - Snapshot19.vmsn
    XP_FedComp - Snapshot19.vmem
  • Replace the file vmsd by one attached to this post

If the virtual machine still does not start, you may need to remove the "XP_FedComp - Snapshot18.vmsn" or "XP_FedComp - Snapshot18.vmem" also. However before you do this, attach the last file vmware.log for us to see exactly what is happening.

Ounces, that everything is working again, I suggest that you remove some of the snapshots. In VMware products, instantanes snapshots are used in a string your VM which means all THE files are in use and with the number of snapshots, you have, most likely will be much more slowly he could really.

  • iPhone ran out of battery, now wont start black screen after the apple logo

    Hey not last night, but the night before, I forgot to plug my phone so it died while I was sleeping. When I woke up, I plugged and went a little. When I came back I noticed that the phones screen was on, but black. I tried to restart with the buttons and everything that I do not understand what could be wrong. The battery is not cause fried, it continues to display the apple logo then a black screen. I would prefer not to have my phone back and to lose everything, and I can't really afford to pay someone more than 200 to tell my my phone is broken, please help.

    Have you tried that?

    Try a forced reboot. No data is lost during this procedure. Hold on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

    Hello Jacqueline.

    You can probably recover some data if you do not have a full format. Search for recovery software after formatting or try a demo of databack link: http://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-software.htm

    Make sure that you do not make new files or download / copy anything on the hard drive to reduce the chances of the excessive write current .pst file.

    Hi Shannon,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

    This is because the computer was arrested while playing game. The game files might have been corrupted.

    Method 1: The restore of the system on your computer.

    System Restore will take your computer state permeable when it did not face such a problem, this can be done by selecting the correct restore point.
     
    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    2. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
    3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
    4. click on finish.

    For more information visit http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212/

    Method 2: If the same problem then I suggest to uninstall and reinstall the game and check.

    Hope this information is useful.
    Let me know if it worked.
     
    Thank you, and in what concerns:

    You receive the error "your computer is running out of memory" message when you start Flight Simulator:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/892610

    When you start Microsoft Flight Simulator, you receive the following error message:

    Your computer is running out of available memory. Flight Simulator will now exit. You can't have enough free space on your hard drive. Run Disk Cleanup to free up space, and then try to run Flight Simulator.

    Method 1: Space available hard drive

    1. Click Startand then click my computer.
    2. Right click on the hard disk where Flight Simulator is installed, and then click Properties.

      Note Flight Simulator is usually installed on the C drive.

    3. Make sure that the amount of free space is more than 500 megabytes (MB).

    Note the 500 MB space available disc is required to play Flight Simulator. 1 gigabyte (GB) of available disk space is recommended. If you do not have at least 500 MB of available hard disk space, you must delete or remove some files or programs on the hard disk.

  • Pavilion 15-p101nr: 15-p101nr usb host driver

    Hello.

    I deleted hp-version of Windows 8 and installed clear Windows 8.1. I also installed all the drivers for my laptop on your site, but when I tried to plug my card its USB, a PROBLEM that has happened: it reboots once per second. I know this problem, and I guess that's wrong USB host controller drivers. Unfortunately, I couldn't find this driver anywhere in your Web site. Please, help me.

    Best wishes, gaze and others.

    Hello. Thank you for your response.

    Unfortunately, you did not help me. I have macbook - like keyboard and touch pad instead of support apple-like clumsy "OEM ONLY CUZ YOU ARE STUPID".

    I found solution myself. To resolve this problem, you will need to download the drivers from the site Web of AMD:

    http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download/desktop?OS=Windows+8.1+-+64#

    Then, you will need to unzip and install. Not yet the end.

    Open windows, the Device Manager. Search for Universal Serial Bus Controllers > Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller. Right-click on > Properties > driver > Update Driver. There you have to Browse my computer for driver software > let me pick from a list of devices on my computer > Have Disk > Browse. Now, we go to this folder:

    %folder_of_unpackadge%\AMD-catalyst-Omega-14.12-SB-SATA-AHCI-WIN8.1-Win7\Packages\Drivers\SBDrv\hseries\UsbFilter\W764A

    Windows will now detect AMD USB Filter Driver and warn us that this driver may be incompatible with our device. We have to accept and... It fits perfectly. Repeat for other Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller, and we now have 2 AMD USB Filter Driver instead of them. Now everything works in stone.

    Good job, HP, AMD and Microsoft.

  • C: drive turned into raw and now I can't see file display options etc on my computer.

    Original title: instability of the system.

    I have xp s3. I had trouble with my main drive lately. Previously, I had my shot raw c drive and I can either logon in safe mode. I used checkdisk by my slave hard drive someone to another disk and it comes back with a few interface problems. Yet once the obtained c drive turned into raw and now I can't see file display options etc on my computer. I tried to use to start the system restore but not its use before and now. I have avira for antivirus and Registry Mechanic only. Is there a way I can fix my windows without formatting evrything?

    Hi Windflash,

    I had a similar problem also and it turns out that the hard drive is dead. You can probably do is to connect the hard drive to a working another computer & use data recovery tools to recover files from it but usability will always be a question.

    Data recovery is an another stressful job as for me it took 3 days to recover data to a 500 GB drive.

    After which I tried to format it own it but has not as well so I poured the reader.

    You can try my snack suggestions if your drive starts to work again I strictly recommend you to use it as a primary drive.

    If you copied the password to the waiting file and renamed him applies properly to try to stop and restart the database on the new password file, and then apply again.

    tnsnames, your alias for listener configuration database name are usually the cause of this error.
