How to judge whether a data store is read only or not?

• Windows Server 2008 R2 NFS mounted data store is read only

  I've done this dozens of times in the past, but not with this exact combination successfully:

  ESX4 U1

  Windows 2008 R2 Server Datacenter edition

  NFS Server installed. TCP Version 3.

  The normal configuration that worked in the past:

  NTFS security - total control on ANONYMOUS logon, everyone control total

  The local policies, network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users (applied automatically by Windows)

  NFS Sharing - ANSI encoding, allow anonymous access - UID = - 2, GID = - 2

  NFS share permissions - allow all THE MACHINES read-write, ROOT access

  The data store adds OK and appears in the list of data on vClient stores and can be viewed or directly via a Console logon.

  The problem is that the data store is read only! Nothing from ESX can write, delete, or update a folder or a file on the data store. Access Windows NTFS is very well.

  This means also you cannot boot from say a CD ISO on the data store, or create a VMDK guest virtual computer on the data store.

  Given that I had zero problems with this in the past, when with the help of ESX3 or ESX4 connect to Windows Server 2003R2 or several NAS with NFS devices supported I think Windows 2008R2?

  Has anyone seen anything like this before?

  I use it currently; It works fine, but it's the way that you configure the windows nfs export without having to use a mapping service (see images)

  Also, be aware that Windows System Cache is a bit less efficient than linux (but that's ok) you just need to add additional RAM at least 16 GB for the data store busy.

  I also recommend refining delays in setting up nfs for each virtual machine host:

  NFS. HeartbeatFrequency = 10

  NFS. HeartbeatFailures = 5

  And on windows change the properties of the NFS server in the locking tab

  customer collection lock wait 5

• The selected data source is read-only

  Someone knows how to solve this 'problem '.

  The selected data source is read-only. You cannot change the view configuration.

  Thanks in advance.

  My solution to this has been reset in the field of data and download information again. I know that it is not best practice but it works

• 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

  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 to find clusters of data store for compute cluster?

  I used PowerCLI script calls within a rest service.  The rest service is spent a bunch of new applications of construction of virtual machine data.  For the deployment, the only data (relevant to this question), I'm getting is the vcenter server and the name of the compute cluster.  I need to find a way to determine which cluster of data store to deploy virtual computer by using the name of the compute cluster.  If I do a get-cluster $clustername | FL * I see no correlation between the computer cluster and the cluster data store.

  If I get info on a VM (get-vmhost $vmhost) host in a cluster, I see the datastoreIDlist as a property of the object VMhost and can see the warehouses of data (not datastoreclusters) facing it.  Which is not ideal, but it might be doable.

  I know there is a relationship between compute clusters and storage that is presented in vcenter.  Why can't I find that in powercli?

• Web Client 5.5 - How to download files from data store?

  I can't get the file download of data storage works on my 5.5 b vcenter webclient. When you browse the datastore folder / there are only buttons to install the Plugin for integration Client, refresh, new folder and delete. The plugin is installed and I tried to use IE11 and Chrome.

  It is a known issue and the workaround is to use an older version of the Mozilla Firefox browser.

  From the release notes: https://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vsphere-vcenter-server-55u1-release-notes.html#knownissues

  Integration of client plug-ins can not work as expected if you log the vSphere Web Client using Internet Explorer 11 *.

  If you log the Web Client using Internet Explorer 11 vSphere, the following problems may occur when you perform tasks related to the Client plugin integration:

  • Even if the Client integration plugin is installed, the following message appears when you try to import or to export a model from the FVO:
    Download the plugin Client integration
  • File browser does not download or download a file from the data store.
  • You can't get images of the CD/DVD drive.
  • The console of the virtual machine you may see a black screen with the following error message:
    Remote console is not properly installed

  Solution: use Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or earlier versions of Internet Explorer to access the Web Client vSphere. You can also use vSphere Client instead of vSphere Web Client to work around this problem.

• How to ignore the local data store...

  Hello LucD and other experts, script

  I have a script that gives me the list of the data stores, total, used and free size and accessibility. That's out of all types of data, such as Aboriginal, SAN and NFS storage... I took leave of the NFS share... I'm looking to see if there is possibility to ignore local warehouses of data in the list...

  The script is attached. Help, please!

  Kind regards

  VMSavvy

  Change this line

  $datastores = get-vmhost | Get-Datastore. Sort-Object Name

  in this

  $datastores = get-vmhost | Get-Datastore. where {$_.} Extensiondata.Summary.MultipleHostAccess} | Sort-Object Name

• Disk groups are not visible cluster. vSAN datastore exists. 2 guests (on 8) cluster do not see the vSAN data store. Their storage is not recognized.

  http://i.imgur.com/pqAXtFl.PNG

  http://i.imgur.com/BnztaDD.PNG

  Do not know how even tear it down and rebuild it if the disk groups are not visible. The discs are in good health on each host storage adapters.

  Currently the latest version of vCenter 5.5. Hosts running 5.5 build 2068190

  Just built. Happy to demolish and rebuild. Just do not know why it is not visible on the two hosts and the disk groups are only recognized 3 guests when more are contributing. Also strange that I can't get the disk groups to fill in vCenter. I tried two different browsers (chrome and IE).

  I have now works.

  All the identical 5.5 relies on ESXi hosts. All hosts are homogeneous CPU/sum of the prospects for disk controller / installed RAM/storage.

  I have work. I had to manually destroy all traces of the vSAN on each single to help host node:

  (1) put the hosts in maintenance mode and remove the cluster. I was unable to disable vSAN in the cluster, I made on each node host (manually via the CLI below) then disconnected web client vCenter and return to finally refresh the ability to disable on the cluster.

  esxcli vsan cluster get - to check the status of each host.

  esxcli vsan cluster drop - the vSAN cluster host.

  storage of vsan esxcli list - view records in the individual host group

  esxcli vsan storage remove-d naa.id_of_magnetic_disks_here - to remove each of the disks in the disk group (you can ignore this using the following command to remove the SSD only falling each disc in this host group).

  esxcli vsan storage remove s naa.id_of_solid_state_disks_here - this is the SSD and all the magnetic disks in a given disk group.

  After that, I was able to manually add hosts to the cluster, leave maintenance mode and configure the disk groups. Aggregated data of the vSAN data store is correct now, and everything is functional.

  Another question for those of you who still read... How to configure such as the VM storage strategy that migrates towards (or inspired) the vSAN data store will immediately resume the default storage policy, I built for VSANs?

  Thanks for anyone who has followed.

• How do I Change the Date on an individual Page, but not the entire Document?

  I'm a student using pages to take notes for my classes. I want to change the date on the individual pages so I can see what topics we have learned to date, without changing the date of the document in the header. How can I do?

  No reason why you could not just choose Insert menu: Date time & in pages individual body of the document? In the Pages of v5, this date will not update when the document is reopened.

• How do I encrypt a data file so that only I can retrieve the Info?

  How do I encrypt a data file so that it cannot be read without permission?

  I have a request where the client shouldn't have access to the data that I need to save for troubleshooting purposes.  (there are trade secrets, I want to protect)  My plan is to save a datalog (currently I produce a Spreadsheet tabs-delimited format) whenever the device is running and hide the files where they will not likely be found.  But some sort of encryption or everything at least password protection would be better.

  I never tried to do this before, but thought it would be pretty easy.  Maybe I'm looking all just not in the right places.

  Thank you

  Well, you could look in something like DES, Triple, ESA, etc.  It has libries lying since these writings in LabVIEW.  I'm not sure about the cost.

  If you want a very simple way to protect your data, just reverse all or part of the bits in each byte of the file.  It's super simple and turns a nice ASCII text file noise when read from a text file.

• VMs of MAX in a data store: vsphere 5.5 (HA not configured.)

  Hi all

  I have a 5.1 vcenter where HA is not configured. I want to know what is the number max of vms in a data store (Powered on and powered at the same time).

  As this vcenter is no less with HA, does by default no that is 2048 as by maximum vsphere will be the same or not.

  in vmware drivers maximum, I found below.

  Config files on your virtual computer by the data store in a cluster HA: 2048 (without HA which is no?)

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Maximum limit of 2048 VMs running also apply to the VMFS5 file system.

  For turning off VMs, I think you can take numbers vCenter and cluster up to 15000 registered VMs and VMs 4000 clustered...

• Write-Host returns the correct value of the data store while Export-CSV does not work

  Hi team

  I use the attached script to get vcenter inventory. Everything works fine but the output to one gives CSV value like datasore ' VMware.Vim.VirtaulMachineConfigInfoDatastroreUrlPair [of] "instead of the actual data store name.

  But when I do a write-host in the end (instead of export to CSV) I can't find the name of data reflecting properly store.

  Can someone help me understand what Miss me?

  Thanks in advance.

  The problem is that the virtual machine can have several data warehouses and the DatastoreUrl is an object, not a string.

  Try changing:

  $Report.DatastoreName = $VMview.Config.DatastoreUrl

  in:

  $Report.DatastoreName = [string]: join ('',($VMview.Config.DatastoreUrl |) Select-Object name - Expandproperty))

• How to make a part of the BLOB read-only?

  Hi all
  
  I need to open a word document saved in the database read-only. It is for the user manuals. I got the code, its working very well... But I need to open the word read-only document. How do I do that? A way to make the POINT of BLOB read-only?
  
  The structure of the table is as follows.
  
  ANNUAL NOT NULL NUMBER (5)
  NAME VARCHAR2 (128)
  BLOB OF DOC
  DOC_NAME VARCHAR2 (50)
  
  
  
  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  What do you mean by 'read only '?
  If you don't want to store any subsequent end-user, do not save this return to the database after you display.

• How can I make an external USB drive read-only?

  I'm trying to find a solution to take a USB HD in a spacing classified environment / air.  If I can make the drive read-only (like I gave him that I need to copy on these machines), then the Agency will probably approve the device.  I can't use DVDs that data are 30 + GB in size.

  Hey there, capsfanva!

  Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! It seems you need to set permissions on an external USB drive or hard drive. These permissions setting is a great way to improve the security and privacy of these elements. You've come to the right place and you will find the answer below. You must connect the device to your computer and follow these steps:

• How can I add a data store as an additional drive for a virtual machine?

  This is probably very simple, but honestly, I'm quite a n00b when it comes to networking and sys. Small business being at low cost...

  OK, I have a HP DL360 G5 running ESXi 3.5 with 2 virtual computer management. The first is a cloned Win 2003 SME (I had to save the last days of server primarily was about to fail), the other is a Win XP VM (which is just share a single file to 6 users)

  The server currently has 2 x 73 GB 10K SAS RAID 1. I installed another drive of 73GB 15K and seen in V: IC, I can add the storage, but how the VM of 2003 to see the new disk space? I need to be added as an extra, (e) disk in this case.

  TBH I don't know even if I added the next Assistant in V: IC correctly except extra storage space.

  Any help will be appreciated

  If the new drive has been formatted as VMFS3, then you can just change the settings of the virtual machine and add a disk.  Specify the new drive as the location for the new virtual hard disk.  You have two options on this screen.  Store with VM or specify the location.  You will need to specify the location.  Then, you can specify any size you want the new E reader to be.  Then in Windows, open disk management to complete the process.

  This will be your easiest route.
