• ProLiant ML350 G6: How to add a new disk to my server

  I have a HP ProLiant ML350 G6 in the HDD rack before I have some unused slots and I want to fill them with some news readers. How do I do that? I do not have a "cage" where to put a standard 3.5 "drive, so I wonder if I need to buy the whole cage + reader package.

  In addition, can I organize the disks in any way I want, more than one RAID volume with a simple bracket and a single raid card? I guess Yes, but I want to make sure, and ask is free

  Hello NavarroIT,

  I have a new Dell PowerEdge 840 Server with two disks SAS and SAS 5i/R controller of berries in a mirror Raid-1 (made in hardware)

  I have installed OpenManage 5.4 WITH the storage option.

  I put two new hard drives SAS I want to initialize and create another virtual disk of Raid-1.

  OpenManage sees the drives (loans and OK but not online) and gives me two options under tasks "Blink" and "Unblink.

  Now when I put two drives in my component Snap Server PowerEdge 1600SC Array Manager 3.6 MMC 3 years, I could create a virtual disk from the operating system.

  What happens with Array Manager. Why he let do this to me?

  What is going on? Why can't initialize new disks and create a virtual disk?

  It comes to my main server. I can't take it offline for 10 hours initialize disks.

  I went into Windows disk management and that he sees the drives but I don't want a Software Raid.

  1. first of all insert Win XP Cd on the DVD player

  Thank you

  Low

  You are right on all three counts indictment with the exception of having to format the hard drive before installing the operating system. Depending on what software you used to format your hard drive, you may encounter some problems with the installation. Best practice in my opinion, is you insert the XP installation cd into the optical drive recommended, restart your computer and follow the prompts.

• How to add a row in a computer using New-disk virtual hard?

  Hello

  I am running powercli 5.0.1 build 581491 and I'm writing a powercli script for:

  (1) create a RDM

  (2) assign the RDM to VM1

  (3) assign the same RDM to VM2

  I am able to create the ROW and assign it to VM1, but I am unable to use "New drive" assign to VM2.  Using the following command, I am able to create the ROW and assign it to VM1.

  New-disk-hard - VM VM1 DiskType - RawVirtual /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.60000970000192603729533030353531 - DeviceName

  While trying to assign to VM2, I do the following:

  New-harddisk - VM, VM2 - DiskPath ' [san - datastore:1] vm1/vm1_1.vmdk.

  And I get the following error:

  New-hard drive: 06/06/2012 14:13:19 new-support device Incompatible hard disk specified for the device '0'.

  What I realized, is that if I create a regular vmdk file, then use the New drive using the '-DiskPath ' option, then the command works well.  So my question is, what is the command to add a ROW in a virtual machine?

  Thanks in advance.

  No, indeed it seems something wrong with the cmdlet New-disk hard when adding shared RDMs.

  I have the following, which assigns the RDM common to both virtual machines.

  It's more or less the same, what you've seen in Onyx, but it adds the RDM shared for two virtual machines.

  $vm1 = Get-VM -Name VM1 $vm2 = Get-VM -Name VM2
  $DeviceName = "/vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600507680180701ed00000000000124" 
  
  $hd1 = New-HardDisk -VM $vm1 -DeviceName $DeviceName -DiskType RawVirtual $ctrl1 = New-ScsiController -HardDisk $hd -BusSharingMode Virtual -Type VirtualLsiLogicSAS
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  $spec.DeviceChange += New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec $spec.deviceChange[0].device += $ctrl1.ExtensionData $spec.deviceChange[0].device.Key = -101$spec.deviceChange[0].operation = "add"

• How to locate a new virtual machine on a different hard disk

  VMware Fusion 3.1.1 (282344) Mac OS 10.6.4.

  I have a few virtual machines on my boot drive and am running out of space. I want to create a new Win 7 vm on a drive different but can't seem to figure out how to tell VMware to put there. I know I could create in the normal location on my boot drive and move it, but I didn't Go on the boot drive for this.

  How to create the new virtual machine on the new drive?

  Thx for advice,

  Ken

  As you walk through the Wizard New VM and you arrive at Cap sheet, you have two choices...

  One is to select the Customize settings button and the other is just click the Finish button.  Each choice made appear to save to: dialog box and you can pick any location you want.  Note that you may need to click the down arrow located right of save it under: text box to expand this worksheet to display all the options.  BTW, clicking on this button is the standard behavior of OS X and has nothing to do with the VMware Fusion in itself.

• Help!  How to add a new 350GB disk?

  Hi all

  I was tasked with the addition of an extra 350GB disk to a virtual machine in a configuration, I discovered it's done not as easily in Lab Manager as it is in vCenter.  I cancelled the Setup and when I go into the properties of the VM I see 'add the HDD', but when I go to add the new drive with the size you want it only allows me to add a maximum of 167 GB (the remaining space on the LUN that VM is enabled) as expected.  I have a new 550 GB LUN I want to create this new drive 350GB, but I do not get a choice where to create the new disk.  Can someone help me please this seemingly simple task?  Thank you

  BTW - I use Lab Manager 3.0 (2) on ESX 3.5 HP blades

  If you add a new HARD disk in your virtual machine in the Lab Manager the disc is placed in the root directory of die VM.

• Time Machine the new disk transfer has not moved all the time

  I have a Time Machine backup to an external drive. It works very well. However, he was beginning to run out of space, so I bought a new, bigger HD.

  I followed all the steps of Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support.

  I then waited 12 hours for that copy.

  Around midnight, I noticed the copy is complete. There was a message that iWork had not been copied because he needed a different operating system. But I rejected. There are no other messages.

  I changed the Time Machine preferences on the new disk. And fell asleep.

  This morning, I walked into a Time Machine.

  Only the first date from July 2014, was on the new disc of TM. Then there was five times after midnight when the new drive was saved.

  But there is nothing in any of the years between the first date and after midnight.

  I know that there are hundreds of TM captures on the original disc. And I've used them very well.

  I tried to copy individual files from the old drive to TM to the new, but it is not possible to "change the backups."

  10.10.5 system

  What should do?

  While in Time Machine, to see all the volumes mounted shift - command - c.    Information derived from Linc Davis.

  If this does not work, try to copy the file to disk/restore utility using to copy the backup to a new location. Please note that this will reformat the destination partition.

• Tecra M3: How to remove a password disk HARD known?

  Greetings, all.
  I am a technician in a large enterprise COMPUTING and have been presented with a Tecra M3 which took the user/HDD to set passwords.
  I need to redistribute the laptop to another employee, but I need to make sure that no game of passwords of the bios.

  Now that I know what is the existing password, I have reset / removed the user password, eliminating 'password =' fast before the start.

  However, I find no docco to tell me how to remove the HARD drive password. I am always prompted with "password HARD drive integrated =" command prompt.

  Can I put it, I change it. I just can't take it off.
  It's probably somewhere simple, I'm not quite familiar with this model.

  I should note here: I KNOW WHAT IS THE EXISTING PASSWORD, so I'm not a suspect type "how to bypass a password disk HARD unknown?". I just need to know how to, or remove it completely if the new user-to-be is not invited.

  Hello

  You should be able to remove the HARD drive KNOWN password in the BIOS. I put t understand why you aren't able to do.

  About your statement, you can set HARD drive password and change the HARD drive password.

  I think you should try to remove the HARD drive as the master password BIOS password.
  Try to use the Enter key to change the password for the drive HARD and don't anything else type.

• Disk GUID partition? and the new disk utility

  The new disk utility Version 15.0 delivered with El Capitan, differs from earlier versions of disk utility.

  Most will have noticed the absence of the utility to fix permissions.

  However, check the type of disc format is a little more difficult and well.

  The player must be selected, and then the information button must be selected.

  Then, you must look at the "File System" line to see whether or not it is OS X Extended.

  Then you look at the line "Logged" to see if it is 'yes' or a 'no '.

  How do we know if it's a GUID partition or a utility with the new APM partition?
