How can I move a data store a single virtual disk shape in a different data store?

I have a host running vSphere 4 enterprise that belongs to a cluster of Foundation vCenter 5.5.  I need to move all the guests off the coast of this host to be updated. This host has a client that is using the local hard disk as a data store.  This customer has six 6 hard drive with only using the local hard disk as a data store.  How can I move the hard drive to a different data store?

When I try to use 'Move' or 'Migrate' with vCenter (client or web interface), it seems that I can move only data not store a single entity, each database individually.  Can we move a data store single someway with the guest always under tension, or do I have to power off and manually move the "vmdk" they reattach the hard drive?


Thank you


Bruce

When you click on migrate, the data store, click on the Advanced button.  It will give you the option to select a disc.  You can migrate it while it is running.

  • How can I move a good copy of Windows XP Edition family of my G drive to a bad copy of Windows XP Pro onDrive C (startup disk) without destroying all the data and programs I have on these two discs?

    I have a computer that I needed an extra hard drive with a lot more memory that I had on this subject.  I had Windows XP Home Edition on it and was very satisfied with the system.  I came back from the computer repair store and my old hard drive was drive G, with all the old data still on it and a (used) and more C drive was in the unit and it's now my boot drive and I not paid no attention to it, he soiled by Windows XP Professional with service pack two.  I really did not notice the difference and I started to put several other new programs that I need on this computer and I went to work.  After over a long period, I now had a notice that it wasn't a valid Windows product.  I wondered of course that with Microsoft, because I had all my documents, my records, (now lost) and the key that was on the side of my computer.

    As I continued to find out what was going on, while doing a search for information on the drives, I found the original Windows program, I had, now my question is, how can I move on my C drive, while MY ORIGINAL Windows XP Home Edition causes my computer to start?  Most of the programs that I run is not compatible with Windows 7 or Vista even, and it cost me a fortune to buy all of these programs again.

    What can I do?

  • How can I move my library iPhoto for WD My Cloud?

    I have a MBP 2011 OSx 10.9.5 running with a 320 GB hard drive which is full (only 4.5 GB of free space remaining).  I'm not being updated lately b/c I don't have disk space to do so.  I have an iPhoto library 164GB I want to spend.  I backed up the iPhoto library on a WD My Passport without any problems.  I have a WD My Cloud 2 TB NAS.  I want to save my iPhoto on the NAS library so that whenever I want to access iPhoto I can't plug my DHM.  Or if I travel and you want to access my photos I don't have to carry the EHD with me.  Essentially, I want to use the NAS to accommodate my iPhoto library for access to daily and then use my passport EHD to perform manual backups on a regular basis, so I have a backup of the SIN.  My question... How can I move my iPhoto library to the NAS and it work to use the SIN as the point of main access for my photos?  Thank you.

    Short answer: you don't have. It is not a supported disc format and you risk of major loss.

    Long answer: iPhoto must have the library sitting on drive to Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Users with the library sitting on disks formatted also regularly report matters including, but not limited to, import, export, save the changes and photo sharing.

    See this article

    http://support.Apple.com/kb/TS5168

    to learn more. Also note the comment:

    "In addition, store the iPhoto library on a network rather than locally on your computer can also lead to poor performance or loss of data."

    This is doubly true in the case of wireless connections: If you try to change the library (i.e. make albums, move pictures around, keyword, brand books or slide shows etc.) or edit individual photos in it wireless be very cautious. Dropouts are a common reality of wireless network, and does it happen while the app is written to the database, then your library will be damaged. Simply, I wouldn't do this with my libraries.

    If disk space is a problem, and it is very definitely for you:

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)

    1. quit iPhoto

    2 copy the iPhoto library to your folder on the external drive.

    3 hold down the option (or alt) key when launching iPhoto. In the menu that appears, select "Choose Library" and navigate to the new location. From there it will be the default location of your library.

    4 test the library, and when you are sure that all is well, trash on your HD internal for free space.

    I am often confused about the difference between an event and a time.  Please forgive me if I'm using these terms incorrectly.

    I, (pictures) selected, top left, it says, 'Moments' in the header at the top of the page.

    I have 4 images in a row under "April 17, 2016" immediately below these 4 images, I have 1 image also under "April 17, 2016".»   With the good old iPhoto, I could simply drag the single image below, on the date above (with 4 images in a row), and that would give me 5 consecutive images.  Then, now empty it event / time would disappear.

    Just trying to consolidate my images in a logical way for me.

    You can not.

    The library 'Photos' and 'Pictures' albums are automatically organized function import or taken the place and date.

    In the Photos, the equivalents of iPhoto events albums. This is where you can organize your images as you wish.

  • How can I move movies from my iPhone to icloud

    How can I move movies from my iPhone to my iCloud?

    Can be a little more specific?

    Are you talking about real movies or videos you have taken?

    Where in the cloud you are trying to store?

    Bought films are already "in the clouds" as far as being always accessible - once bought, you should always be able to redownload them.

    Videos taken can be stored in iCloud photo library, but the library of Photo is not really designed to be a permanent storage solution.

    You could potentially upload videos on iCloud drive, but there is a limit to the size that can be downloaded.
