Issue of instant removal - remove all * but * the most recent snapshot

I have a question. I have a virtual machine, where my user has made 3 snapshots - #1, then #2, then 3 #, then #4. This user was told that he needs to last snapshot and not instant intermediaries.

I should be able to just remove them in the reverse order - #3, then #2, #1 - leaving only #4 as the unique snapshot. And that should be all that I need, to have #4 the snapshot only I can come back? And - most importantly - the disk space. I need to remove the #1-#3 to retrieve data store space.

This should not cause problems, correct? I'm more used to the deletion of snapshots in reverse order - #1, #2, #3, #4...

No problem at all.

Snapshot depend on its snapshot / parent disk. So when you delete snapshot #3 its just data merge with snapshot #2. Then snapshot #4 is now dependent on instant #2.

If you delete Snapshots #1,2,3 now the snapshot #4 changed the disc relative as the source for the blocks in all committed snapshots.

  • The most recent episode is to Download Stitcher but NOT iTunes?

    So my last episode does not appear on the iTunes store that my 32 other episodes are fine no problem but the most recent is not. I downloaded it almost a week ago so I know this isn't a thing of timing because they are usually no more than a few hours of posting. Stitcher has also the most recent episode so I'm pretty confident that my feed is working.

    Perhaps you have not allowed enough time for the Bank to update. You have perhaps fallen on an intermittent bug in the store. Perhaps there is a mistake in your stream. If you post the URL of your store page and feed there is no way of knowing.

  • How to read only the most recent records in PL/SQL

    Oracle version: 11.2

    I have a table in ORACLE called RATES and it is EFFECTIVE_DATE, RATE_NAME, RATE_AMOUNT


    RATE
    ------------
    1 RATE_ONE 01/01/2000 0.10
    2 RATE_ONE 01/05/2005 0.15
    RATE_ONE 12/01/2010 3, 0.20
    RATE_TWO 4 10/15/2009 0.33
    5 RATE_THREE 07/09/2011 0.05
    6 RATE_THREE 31/12/2011 0.06

    A rate can be there several times, but the most recent rate is the rate of the asset. I need to query this table and want only to bring the currently active lines:
    DOCUMENTS 3, 4 and 6

    How can I do this in the most elegant way?

    I can say:

    SELECT RATE WHERE trunc (sysdate) between EFFECTIVE_DATE and trunc (sysdate);

    (it will not work. I don't know how to do this without a date column exp and then I could tell
    SELECT RATE WHERE trunc (sysdate) between EFFECTIVE_DATE and end_date

    The problem is that I can't add this column at this time, so need to find a way to do it by programming

    Hello

    Here's one way:

    WITH     got_r_num     AS
    (
         SELECT     rate.*          -- or list columns you want
         ,     RANK () OVER ( PARTITION BY  rate_name
                          ORDER BY          effective_date     DESC
                        )           AS r_num
         FROM    rate
    --     WHERE     ...          -- If you need any filtering, put it here
    )
    SELECT     *          -- Or list all columns except r_num
    FROM     got_r_num
    WHERE     r_num     = 1
    ;
    

    If you would care to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for your sample data, and then I could test this.

    If the combination (rate_name, effective_date) is not unique, this includes all rows that have the last effective_date for this rate_name. If you want exactly one line per rate_name when there is a tie, then add the columns of tiebreaker to analytical or use ROW_NUMBER instead of RANK ORDER BY clause.

  • I sell desktop computer and need to know how to remove all of the pc?

    I sell desktop computer and need to know how to remove all of the pc?

    The most difficult part of the first paragraph is to create the boot floppies - which can be complicated and requires installation of Windows disks.

    Perhaps a third simple but effective alternative is simply to re - install Windows on your computer from the disc that came with your computer or from the recovery partition.  Resettlement will delete all files on the disc and replace them with the New Installation of Windows.  At this point, the fragments of your old files may remain on your hard drive.  So once relocation complete, download and install the freeware 'Eraser' software, run it and you want to specify the "free space" erased on your hard drive.  This will overwrite firmly all the data remains that has not already been overwritten by the Windows Installation.

  • reduce the size of the seeds by car - remove ALL except the Base and last Incremental?

    I need to make a seed for a few VMs player.  but I don't need all of the incremental backups.   Is it safe to keep only the Base and the most recent Incrementaland remove all of the incremental backups between?  I think that this will help reduce the size of the seed and speed things up.

    I think that the answer is Yes.

  • How to remove all of the Widcomm / Broadcom driver files without afecting Windows 7

    WIDCOMM/Broadcom Bluetooth does not connect to any device. I tried troubleshooting, uninstalling and reinstalling in various ways, including Revo (Revo search all installed files if installed with it, which wasn't my original case), without success. I want to clean the computer of any trace of the driver Widcomm/Broadcom again restart. As know, there is no way to remove all of the Broadcom driver files (sounds similar to drivers who need specific applications to remove their display files). I also need to clean the registry of this batch of Broadcom entered and port settings. Unable to set the permissions of port settings to delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\BTHENUM and the BTH

    The search for answers, I couldn't find any thread containing any viable solution or confirmed to fix Broadcom Bluetooth on Windows 7, but on an old thread there is a tutorial by Shinmila: witch would solve my problems, as described. He points to the guilty finding drivers and remove them. According to my experience, there is no need to reinstall the driver on remains stale. However. I'm not sure that any of these drivers will not need to Windows. I tried a few things from her tutorial without result. Shinmila link to the support site for Widcomm is no longer valid, and I couldn't find any support he...

    Where my questions:

    1. Can I safely delete all files found by searching on its method 2?
    2. How to clean the ports of registry and other settings?

    I am open to all ideas and suggestions which put me using Bluetooth, but from my experience, I believe that. as for the display drivers, I have to have my PC without remaining driver files and settings. Thank you for all provided assistance.

    The only reason why you could not delete the key \services\BTHPORT is because you don't have the appropriate permissions on some of its underlying subkeys, specifically you didn't have all the permissions on the subkeys of \BTHPORT\Parameters\ExceptionDB\VidPids.  I have no problem taking complete control over the underlying of the subkeys either directly or by inheritance and then removing the key BTHPORT.  Regarding PsExec switch-s allows him to start a process under the guise of the system account where you can pretty much do as you please.

    If the old drivers from Targus gave you problems, then I suggest that you use the latest drivers for Broadcom, of course, you won't know this they solve your problem until you try them.

    I need to know how to remove the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded tonight and my computer does not have this edit bar little to work with, so I can download the reader good Adobe and my internet was screwed up, since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I want just the old version of this back because I can't download the Adobe stuff which is necessary to protect my computer against hackers apparently not. It would have been nice to know he had a problem with the new update of Firefox BEFORE I downloaded it. I have Vista, which is usually a problem with Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run a lot of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.

    This has happened

  • Update problem can remove them except for the most recent? Thank you!

    Hello!  In Control Panel, there are about 20 programs that all say the same thing.  They are updated for Windows and IE 8 security.  The only difference is the date, which date as far back as 2010.  Can I remove them except for the most recent?  Thank you!

  • Backup utility Windows 7 application ' are you sure you want to remove the most recent data from the backup file "even if I'm trying to remove the backup set is not the most recent.

    I'm trying to reduce the amount of space that my Windows 7 backup uses so I've come to the place in Windows 7 backup:
    Manage space > view backups...

    I am then presented a list of three backup sets:
    01/03/2012 to 01/04/2012
    12/07/2011 to 12/21/2011
    23/11/2011 to 30/11/2011

    I would like to remove the older two, leaving the most recent. However, this doesn't seem to work as expected. If I try to delete one of the two most recent ones (the first two in the list above) I get the following warning "Are you sure you want to delete this backup file.

    However, if I try to delete the last one in the list, I get a slightly different error "Are you sure you want to remove the most recent data of the file backup?"-sounds strange because it is clearly not the most recent backup according to the dates it's show.

    Of course, I can go ahead and ignore the warnings, but I fear that maybe there are some files in the last backup the value in the list that may not be right more recent set backs.

    In 2011, I thought this might be something wrong with the date formats vs US UK (I am in England so the above dates are in dd/mm/yyyy format and not in jj/mm/aaaa) - but now it's 2012 and I backup from 2012 and 2011 games and he always seems to think that the oldest backup of 2011 is the most recent.

    Any ideas? Can I delete the oldest backup sets (that is, the two that are from 2011) safely?

    Any help much appreciated - thank you.

    Simon

    Update: I checked on other PCs in the office and the situation is the same - is not only something strange on a PC.

  • I have Firefox 38.2.0 and it tells me that it is the most recent version but online there is version 40 + and it won't let me install it.

    My OS is Windows 10. I have Firefox 38.2.0 and it tells me that it is the most recent version. However, I got emails telling me to upgrade to the latest version which seems to be in the 40s. When I go to the https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ website, it tells me
    "Looks like you are using an older version of Firefox."

    So I click on upgrade and it loads a file "stub". I close in Firefox, go to the folder where the file is located and run it. At the end of the process, he told me that Firefox still works and I have to close it for the new version to load. Then I go to the Task Manager, and he told me that no request to don't run! I went through this process three times without any positive result.

    What to do?

    I'll answer your question, but I suggest not changing your version of Firefox until find us out if having to do any with your plant, discussed here: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1078897

    At some point, there are two different versions of Firefox:

    • Public release of the standard/large: currently Firefox 40.0.2
    • Extended support release (ESR): currently Firefox 38.2.0

    The version of ESR is intended for companies who need maximum stability for their users. New features usually are not added for at least six months, although security patches are issued approximately every six weeks.

    You want to switch to the standard version? If so, this is how I suggest to do:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 40.0.2 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

    (C) to rename the program folder, either:

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\FxESR
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\FxESR
    

    (D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in the old folder. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \FxESR\Plugins
    • \FxESR\browser\plugins
