How to implement backup-lamw script (ghettoVCBni.sh)?

Who can help me (to understand how) to implement the (page ghettoVCBni.sh) lamw backup script? Even after a lot of Googl'ing I don't know how to do this (.. newbie...). I'm currently under ESXi with 2 data warehouses the and would like to backup computer virtual from the first to the second. I guess I ran the script on the ESXi host computer but can not find a way to the place to go. I would really appreciate if someone will write a howto (small).

Thanks in advance, Edmond

1) you must enable access to the ESXi console.

Follow these instructions to do so: http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/ESXi_enable_SSH.php

2) option: if you mainly in Windows (if no, go to 3 ), open ghettoVCBni.sh in Notepad (it is asuming you have already downloaded the script of http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760) and change:

VM_BACKUP_VOLUME = / vmfs/volumes/kevin-test-nfs-storage

in order to take into account any data store that you want to store your backups in. In your case, it would be the name of your second local data store. The data MUST have store a vmfs/volumes/above IT. Another option, you should look at is the previous backups how you want to keep for each virtual machine. This can be changed on the line:

VM_BACKUP_ROTATION_COUNT = 3

WARNING: DO NOT PRESS RETURN AFTER ALL AS notebook of LINES to the INTERIOR THAT IT CAN break INTO THE SCRIPT.

3) SCP the file ghettoVCBni.sh on the ESXi server. You can use WinSCP (user name is root, password is any password you gave ESXi) to do if you are running Windows, use something else, the *nix scp command. (for example from the source running: scp ghettoVCBni.sh [email protected]: )

4) SSH into the ESXi server using "putty" or something physically go (or use Digital KVM or other) to the ESXi console itself and log in as root.

5) make a file on the ESXi server that lists the virtual machines that you want to back up.

There are two simple ways to do so:

Has) create the file backup_vms inside the ESXi console

If you know how to use a * nix like vi text editing tool, then use it to create a text file that has all the display names for the virtual machines that you want to back up. Don't forget that there is a new line for the display name for each virtual machine.

If you don't know how to use a * nix text editing tools, the easiest (though tedious ) to do this inside the ESXi console is:

VM1 echo > backup_vms

VM2 echo > > backup_vms

VM3 echo > > backup_vms

To check your work, run: cat backup_vms

the output should look like:

~ # cat backup_vms

VM1

VM2

VM3

~ #

If it doesn't, run: rm backup_vms and start over (so note the tedious ). Someone chime if there is a way to do this without rm'ing or edit with vi.

B) create the backup_vms file it on a separate system and the SCP in the ESXi server. You must be careful, however, not use not Notepad because after each return, he will add in ^ M (where the warning at the top). It's bad. Again, you can check your work by using the cat backup_vms inside the ESXi console (after you scp it exceeds of course) to make sure there are not the weird characters.

Don't forget, the virtual machines inside the backup_vms of the file MUST be saved on the host of ESXi (i.e. existing in the inventory of the ESXi host in vi-client). In addition, it would be easier to have the ghettoVCBni.sh and backup_vms file to be in the same directory. For this document, this is assuming that you are in /. To make sure you're there, use pwd. To get there use: cd /

5) if you follow the optional step 2 then edit the ghettoVCBni.sh script using a text inside the ESXi console editor and change:

VM_BACKUP_VOLUME = / vmfs/volumes/kevin-test-nfs-storage

in order to take into account any data store that you want to store your backups in. In your case, it would be the name of your second local data store. The data MUST have store a vmfs/volumes/above IT. Another option, you should look at is the previous backups how you want to keep for each virtual machine.

This can be changed on the line:

VM_BACKUP_ROTATION_COUNT = 3

6) change permissions on script to allow execution: chmod + x ghettoVCBni.sh

7) run the script. In the case of this document: ghettoVCBni.sh backup_vms

8) sit and wait or go do something else.

These instructions also apply to the ESX ( under step 1 ). Oh yes, this script can be run on virtual machines (power) live and you don't need any additional trick to run it.

Nice day

How to remove backups Time Machine to a specific drive

I can't find how to better use Time Machine in my situation. Here is my configuration:

I have a 6 TB external drive dedicated as a Time Machine backup. It backs up my internal drive as well as the three external drives (A, B, C). Player "A" is always connected and is constantly supported, but readers 'B' and 'C' are linked only from time to time to archive older files.

I recently made a few changes on the disc 'B' and left connected so it was saved, but Time Machine tells me I don't have enough room... it seems he's trying to save the whole 1.3 TB of data rather than the 15 GB or if I've changed.

I'd like to time Machine would be just delete old backups from the 'B' drive specifically, but except that, what I would do is manually delete older backups for just the "B" drive get rid of enough space to do a new backup, but I get an error when you try to delete the files off the backups. How can I get rid of backups for a specific player?

Thank you!

Visit Time Machine FAQ of Pondini helps with Time Machine. You will use the Time Machine application in your Applications folder for managing backups. There is an excellent explanation on the site linked above that explains how to remove backups or backup files.

How to implement point filters fixed for FPGA

Hello!

I am applying the bandpass filter Butterworth for FPGA.

I managed to develop filters of fixed point that suits my needs, but I don't know how to implement on a table in a project after the FPGA code generation. I tried to understand it in the examples, but I was not very successful.

My time to finish what runs, any help would be really appreciated...

Any suggestions?... some examples?

Thanks in advance

I've already done that and solved the problem.

In any case thank you and have a nice day

How to implement the reading of data from a matte file on a cRIO?

Hi all!

I'm still not sure, it is plausible, but I'll ask rather before you begin complicating. So far, I found no useful information on reading in the data to a device of RT from a file (type of a simulation test - data is simulated).

I have the MatLab plugin that allows the storage of data read a MAT file, which has a number of columns that represent the different signals and lines representing the samples at a time (depending on the time of the sample - sample every time has its own line of signal data).

I have no idea how to implement this at cRIO.

The idea is:

I have some algorithms running on the controller of RIO in a timed loop. As the entries of these algorithms I need to access each of the values of columns in the row, which is the time of the sample (sort of a time series - without written actual times).

I am fairly new to RT and LV development, so any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Luka

Dear Luka!

I think the reading of all the samples in a single channel is exactly what you need here, because reading the files may take some time and is not deterministic, so it is best to read all the data in memory (or if this is not feasible due to problems of size, fairly large pieces may be sufficient). The table read can be provided and then in the loop simulating outings, something like this:

I used here separate channels so it's more graphic, but you can build all the channels in a 2D array and array index corresponding to the samples fom 1 who. You can also use for loops with indexing as tunnels are setup and then you won't need the index functions and the number of iterations is also set automatically, but you have to take care of synchronization settings.

How to implement the wafer map using LabVIEW?

Hello LabVIEW Masters!

I have a project which includes control and searching for information on a PROBER. One of the difficulties I have now is how to implement a WAFER card using LabVIEW. According to the requirements of my client, the element of pads varies between 6 k and 23 k. I guess that do everything (a = a ctl/indicator led) will be a hell of a task, especially on how to effectively manipulate each elements. Does anyone have a better idea on the way whose that?

Please, I seriously need your help...

Thank you and best regards,

Dennis DG

Hi Dennis,

This wafer GerdW post card appears to me as a sort of histogram (for example http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4158/en#toc3);

Altenbach post well this example that shows how to use a plot of intensity to create a 2d histogram:

How to implement Canopen on FPGA to run the engine using NOR-9881?

Dear,

Your support will be highly appreciated,

There is only one available for NOR-9881 example.

Please note that the following materials were properly connected:
cRIO-9024, cRIO-9113, OR-9881 and motor Nanotec (SMCI36 against L2818L0604-T5X5), the following
sites Web shows the engine Nanotec in details:

http://us.Nanotec.com/products/660-L28-linear-actuators-with-trapezoid-spindle/

http://us.Nanotec.com/products/1041-SMCI36-stepper-motor-and-BLDC-motor-position ing-control /

The main problem is how to configure the inputs and outputs, where, in most examples, the entry and exit have been automatically
configured.

the following three examples and I wonder how to start:

1 - example Nanotec: dependent VISA controls for data transfer

http://us.Nanotec.com/support/application-notes/LabVIEW-example/

2 - reference example CANopen for series C OR - 9853 Module CAN:
the NOR-9853 has default Can0 which was used in the code

http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/EPD/p/ID/6093

3 - from finder labView example: search for 9881 then choose
NOR - CANopen_cRIO.lvproj, which depended on SDO orders for transfer orders

The attached picture shows that NEITHER-9881 can be seen, after compilation and
loading the bitfile FPGA.

Please, please advice me:
1. how to start?
2. how to create variables of entry for NI9881?
3. how to implement CANopen mode FPGA? where there is no CANopen palette.

Thanks in advance and

Hello!

From my understanding, the 9881 can be treated from the FPGA, but only from the application of the RT. I think that the point 3 of your post examples of the use of the module fine.

Kind regards

How to implement interfaces or inheritance in LabVIEW?

Hi all

I try to implement oriented OBJECT in my LabVIEW code and require heritage or just an interface (such as might be required in java). I have a good knowledge of OOP is just how do me in LabVIEW, I'm curious.

I'll try to stick with my own example for now, so that someone is able to tell me exactly how to implement this.

in any case, I have two different DMM and each come with their own GPIB commands to get the measures and set the measurement configurations. This seems to be a perfect example to learn how to use inheritance. I figured out how to make a class for each DMM but was curious as to how I might be able to create a parent class for each of them because they both require the same fields in their configuration (AC/DC, Measurment Type, rank, address VISA). I think that I could create a parent class with these fields, then the methods of use of these fields and have then child classes inherit fields and override the methods of the parent class so that depending on what the user selected DMM, it would be able to use the correct class to issue the right GPIB commands.

If anyone can point me to a good example or explain how this could be implemented in labview that would be super. I'm also browsing the forums LVOOP to LavaG trying to figure this out, thanks!

Brent

Brent,

LabVIEW help contains a lot of detailed information on the use of classes. I recommend reading through it, before we begin with OOP in LabVIEW. In the content of the Help window tab, search for "Fundamentals > LabVIEW Object - Oriented Programming > How - to's» There is an article entitled 'change the legacy of a LabVIEW class' that should be what you're looking for.
