• How to increase disk for/tmp space in virtual machine?

  People,

  Hello. I use VM Player 3. My host computer is Windows 7 and VM is Oracle Linux 5.10.

  When I copy a virtual machine host machine (1.2 GB) file, the error message appears:

  "Unable to write file in Virtual Machine.Aborting the copy file operation."

  To be able to copy the file into the virtual machine, it takes about 2 GB of disk space free for the folder/tmp.

  I cleaned all the files in the directory/tmp which is now empty. After that, I ran the cammand:

  $df h/tmp

  Its output:

  File system: / dev/map/VolGroup00-LogVol00

  Dimensions: 95G

  Used: 90G

  Available: 48 M

  : Use 100%

  Mounted on: /.

  As you see above, it has only 48 M free disk space, the file size is 1.2 GB to copy.

  My question is:

  How to increase disk space for "available: 48" to the directory/tmp in VM Oracle Linux 5.1 so that can copy the file?

  Thanks in advance.

  The log files are rotated. You have only the *.log files, but the former obsolete log files too. Are named name.log001 name.log002 and so on.

  Check out some of the files you found the log files and remove turned the oldest logs first. Once you have deleted a couple check if cela disk space savings.

  In theory, you can remove all of the log files, but be careful that no server component runs when you do that. Otherwise the logging stops until you stop and restart the component. If you are not sure if something is running, start with swivelled out newspapers.

• How to allocate disk space for vCenter server logs

  Hello

  I plan to level 4.1 to 5.5 U2d vCenter on the customer site. One of the conditions set out in the vSphere upgrade guide is:

  "In vCenter Server 5.x, the default size for vCenter Server connects is larger than in vCenter Server 4.x. make sure that the disk space allocated for the log folder is sufficient for this increase 450MB."

  My question is how to allocate disk space for the log file and where can I find the disk space allotted to file papers to vCenter 4.1 existing?

  Just see the free space on the partition where the vCenter server logs are stored. If it is insufficient, increase the size of the virtual disk and then increase the file system to the guest OS.

  Hello

  My wife gave me his iMac and she is listed as a user Admin I created my own user. I want to create more disk space by removing his admin account.

  
  

  Apple gives these instructions:

  OS X Mavericks: remove a user

  If you are an administrator, you can remove users that you would no longer have access to your Mac.

  When you delete a user, you can save the home folder of the user, which contains the files and the settings of the user, or delete the folder.

  Open the preferences users and groups, and then click the lock icon to unlock it. If required, type your password, and then click on unlock.

  Select the user you want to remove, and then click Remove under the list of users.

  Do one of the following:

  To save the home folder of the user as a disc image, select "Save the home folder in a disk image." The disk image is saved in/Users/deleted users.

  In order to leave such base file, select "do not change the folder." The folder remains in / Users /.

  To delete the folder of your computer, select "Remove the folder." If you want to keep the programs that read the raw data to recover all files, select "delete the folder safely."

  Click on the user to remove.

  If you do not remove a personal folder user, you can restore the user and the content of the home folder.

  
  

  My questions, that they do not explain the instructions.

  1. can I delete his account if I'm not the Admin? I can access the admin account.

  2. can I designate me as the new admin, and then delete his account?

  3. I have, indeed, will create more disk space by removing account here?

  4. If I register his record as a disk image, which will open disk space without delete me the entire account?

  
  

  A technician Apple told me that I can not increase the memory of 8 GB to 16 GB on my vision.

  5. can't increase memory - is this true?

  My computer works as fast as I want and I'm trying to reduce the load on the system.

  6. I go about it the right way or is there something more I can do?

  Thank you

  Hi Tony, I asked your serial number erased. You never want to post in a public forum.

  To answer your question, no, you can not delete the account if you are not admin. You try to delete the account to become the sole Director of the computer? If so, everything will always be linked to his Apple ID and will require a password to authenticate anything. If this is the case, you must wipe the drive and reinstall the OS using internet recovery.

• Can save us from the Windows updates to another drive to increase disk space

  Hi I want to ask I can save the update of Windows to another example of player: as d ' drive, or an external hard drive, because the update are by default save to my c drive. And my c disk space becomes low.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  Thank you for your query details.

  I also appreciate that fact that you want to save the updates of Windows on another drive or location in order to increase the free space in C; drive.

  Save updates of Windows on another drive location is not recommended because it can cause corruption in the system files which can lead to some unstable operating system. It can also affect Windows start the process.

  Updates are automatically downloaded into the subfolder "C:\WINDOWS\Software Distribution\Download".

  If you want to increase the disk space, I suggest you run Disk Cleanup and check if it helps.

  Please see this link:
  Delete files using disk cleanup
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup#delete-files-using-disk-cleanup=Windows-7

  It removes temporary files, empty the "Recycle Bin", and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

  Note: When running Disk Cleanup on the disk hard if bad data files are found, all these data could be lost.

  I also recommend move your data files stored on drive C: to another drive to increase disk space.

  Reference:

• Save the number of the Virtual Machine: expand the size of the virtual disk of Guest OS affect the physical disk on the host operating system files?

  People,

  Hello. I use 3 Player VM and Guest OS Windows Server 2003. The host OS is Windows 7. I need to increase the size of the VM disk, so who can install several systems in the guest OS. If something bad happens during the expansion of the size of the virtual disk, the guest operating system and its Applications will not work. Thus, before expanding the size of the virtual disk, I need to back up the virtual machine hard disk external.

  I have check the disk hard host operating system Windows 7, the path is C:\VirtualMachine\WindowsServer2003\... When I get to the top of the virtual machine on the external hard drive, simply select the 'VirtualMachine' folder and save automatically. I have 3 questions as follows:

  First of all, if something bad happens during the expansion of the size of the virtual disk, the guest operating system and its Applications do not work. Can I just delete the folder 'VirtualMachine' in the host operating system?

  Secondly, the problem of the first question does not affect files in the physical hard disk to host operating system?

  Third, if something wrong happens during expand the size of the virtual disk of OS guest, I simply delete the folder 'VirtualMachine' in the host operating system and load the original 'VirtualMachine' from the external hard drive in the host operating system. Works correctly as long as one is the Virtual Machine before Stude the virtual disk size?

  Yes.

  That's right, as long as you have not added and other virtual disks of different folders on the host of the virtual machine, you can probably did not.

  After developing the size of the virtual disk, you must also change the size of the partition in the guest operating system.

• How to: recover disk space by removing the updates of windows installation files

  Original title : Software updates to XP Pro do take the disk space that can be reclaimed by removing downloaded files?

  I want to recover disk space which can have useless files.  Once an update is installed, the downloaded file can be deleted and if so, where they are on my drive?

  Please note this is only for Windows XP and is not on Vista or Windows 7

  Folders that have uninstall as part of the name (for example $NtUninstallKB282010$ who reside in C:\windows (hidden files) are window Hot difficulty updating folders/files) can be removed safely (providing ever, you wish to uninstall the updates). I recommend you leave these records for a period of at least one month to make sure that the update works correctly.

  These updates can be removed individually or together. To learn more about the update/s go on:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/xxxxxx
  NB: XXXXXX = the actual number, not to mention the "Q" or "Ko."

  Once you have removed the uninstall folders/files, then go to control panel, add/remove programs. Select the title of the corresponding Windows fix on the folder/file of the patch you just deleted, and select Delete. You will get a Windows error. This is because you deleted the uninstall folder/files. Simply choose OK and the entry will be removed from the Add/Remove Programs list.
