How big boot esxi drive should be?

I can't be install on a HP Server with a SD Reader - it seems like the SD drive is perhaps of 4 GB or more. Is there an optimal size for a boot drive ESXi?

I heard that the boot drive must be large enough for some sort of file temp - temp vm, or esxi temp, or temp vmotion or something like that.

What is recommended for that?

You can configure the scratch location in different ways. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1033696 for more details.

  • How do I boot ESXi from a Flash drive

    Hello, I have a LENOVO G570 and want to boot ESXi from a flash drive.

    Question-if I boot from a flash drive, ESXi install on my hard drive?  I don't want that it installed on my drive hard because I have Windows 7 installed on LENOVO G570.

    Without taking into account the fact that your hardware is not supported to run ESXi in native mode, you might be able to install ESXi on a USB key. However, the VMFS data store (where is stored the VM) must be on the hard drive (no USB device is taken in charge).

    If you want to try ESXi, you can be better egg to run as a virtual machine using VMware Workstation. That's how many of us do this to test and practice.

  • How to boot from a USB - Portege R500 flash drive

    Hello

    I have a Portege R500 running Windows XP, presented about 2 years ago and recently contracted a virus that has infected some of the startup files as the minute I connect it disconnects again, even in SafeMode! The quickest way I can think sorting is to reformat with the XP Recovery disk and reinstall windows.

    Problem! The CD/DVD drive on the computer laptop stopped working earlier, tried almost everything in the thread on this site, but had no luck.

    So my plan was to boot from a USB flash drive and do it this way. However in the boot parameters I only have the options of HARD drive / floppy drive / CD-ROM / LAN, none of them work. Does anyone know how to boot from USB flash drives?

    Any help would be really appreciated

    Hello

    As far as I know, it should be possible to boot from USB FDD

    I don't know if you would be able to boot from a USB flash drive, but it of certainly worth a try m

    Generally, you can try to press the F12 key when the laptop is turned on.
    A start menu should appear on the screen, then you should see all bootable devices.

    PS: as far as I know the USB startup was available in ToshibaHWSetup (tool of Toshiba which changes the settings of the BIOS under windows OS.) So I guess boot from USB must be possible.

  • Laptop HP 17 p100: how the usb flash drive big that I have to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

    How the big usb flash drive do I need to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

    Yes

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    There is really no way accurately guess in advance, with one of the reasons being that the options are available when you do this.  An option creates a recovery drive minimum with what is needed to repair the operating system.  Another option creates an image that is able to completely restore the operating system and its partition.  Thus, the size can vary from 4 GB to the size of the partition to the OS.

    Myself, I found as build-in recovery to be unreliable, especially those of Ms.  So instead, I use a third-party imaging/restoration solution known as Macrium Reflect.

    What I recommend is the following:
    (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
    (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
    (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

    My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.

    I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!

    NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

    Good luck

  • What type of driver sound has extension wav. Which audio driver should I download Windows 8 and how?

    What type of driver sound has extension wav? Which audio driver should I download Windows 8 and how?

    Sannia Hello,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    We need more information about the issue so that we can help you better.

    1. do you try to play audio files. WAV extension?
    2. If so, what happens when you play the files? They do not play, or you receive an error message or a code?
    3. What is the brand and model of your tab Windows 8?

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    File (WAV) Audio Waveform format is a Microsoft and IBM audio file format standard for storing an audio bitstream on PCs. It is an application of the Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) binary stream format method for storing data in "chunks", and thus is also close to the 8SVX and used the format AIFF on Amiga and Macintosh computers, respectively. It is the main format used on Windows for audio usually compressed gross systems and not compressed. The usual bitstream encoding is the format for linear pulse code modulation (LPCM).

    Audio driver is common for all types of audio files. However, in order to play an audio file with a specific extension, you may need a special codec that you can install. You can refer to this article:

  • Error: "one of the drives should be checked for consistency" to start the computer

    The original title: disk space

    My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5000 running with XP Home Edition. At a hard 100G drive with 2 partitions fat. Recursively shows problem at startup. The message displayed is "one of the drives should be checked for consistency. So when he was checked always check disk space and get stored at 41%. I tried to restore several times, but it is once again no place for a long time.

    Could you help me with this?

    Hi RodrigoGodinez,
     
    Sometimes the disk check always starts check the file system on one or more drives for consistency. If no button is pressed, the disk check is aborted. In fact, it is because a data structure of the disc or file is corrupted which can not be recovered and check disk always runs at Windows startup.
     
    Restart the computer and run the command chkdsk from the recovery console.
     
    To boot into the recovery console, see the following article:
     
    Additional reference on:
     
    For more information about the disk check, see:
     
    Note: While running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when chkdsk attempts to repair this area so all available data on this risk to be lost.
     
    If the disk check done in start the computer every time, here is an article that could be useful for:
  • "Your drive should be checked for consistency.

    Hello

    I was wondering if you could help us?  I am running Vista on a Dell laptop and recently have been receiveing "your drive should be checked for consistency" at the start - it, then crosses the chkdsk to BACK process.  It goes through the process very well, deleting some files and move others. However, once I have connected to Windows, my laptop does work for a few minutes before freezing completely upwards. I thought it was just streaming elements that aggravate freeze it, but it seems to freeze no matter what I do.  I continue to have force a switch to stop/off that I can't even restart.

    Its been my computer completely unusable - is there something I can do to solve this problem, apart from buying a new one?

    Thank you!

    Katie

    Thanks - how could I do?  Is this a hardware problem?

    Sounds like it... You said, "it goes through the process very well, deleting some files and moving others." which tells CHKDSK is to find questions and tries to compensate for them.  However, who can only go so far and if there are internal physical damage on the disc itself (disk drive I guess - not an SSD) then the damage could extend.  Sooner or later, you might get to a point where you don't even have the option to boot.

    What your backups?

    You can find the manufacturer of the hard drive itself and get their diagnostic utilities and test the drive entirely with those.  That will tell you if you have real bad sectors and like it or whether a zero and writing with their utility and the new installation of the operating system could help.  It is more likely that it is a pity however.
