• If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

  If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

  You need to duplicate pictures unless you want to use the PSE as external editor for iphoto. In iphoto, your photos are stored in a library owner, which should never be marred with programs other than iphoto. Written to the iphoto library from outside iphoto is the best way to corrupt and lose all the photos it contains.

  So you can either set PSE as external editor and send the photos of in iphoto, or you export photos from iphoto to use them outside of this program.

• HP Pavillion DV7 Notebook: Use unpartitioned disk space on a 700 GB DV7 Notebook

  I have an original 700 GB hard disk partitioned into 5 partitions

  1. 199 MB - system partition

  370 2 GB - data drive partition C

  Partition 3 - 313 f - not assigned

  4. 14 Gb - partition recovery

  5. 103 Mb - HP partition tools

  This disc was partiotioned factory of HP, I have often wondered why HP had left aside nearly 40 percent of the primary (370 Gb) drive as unallocated. This serves?

  So far there has not been a problem, but as the increase in requests for space, I'd use this space if possible.

  This space is set aside by HP for any special purpose, that I don't know - or can I just use it without causing problems?

  Thank you very much

  Tony...

  Hello

  There is no goal for this unused disk space, and very probably he popped a previous restoration.

  You can expand the C partition in "unallocated space" as follows.

  Once more, hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run box, type diskmgmt.msc and press ENTER.

  In the lower graphic view of the partitions, right-click on the C partition and select "Extend Volume".

  In the next window, click Next.

  In the next window, use the "select the amount of space in MB" make sure it shows the same number as the number of 'Space available Maximum in MB' which is registered just above (adjust if necessary).

  Click Next, then click Finish.

  It may take a few minutes to complete.

  Kind regards

• How to use unknown disk space?

  Original title: "unknown space"

  Hi I m shivani I have a problem I have three unknown 18.6 GB disk space can u tell me how to use these discs. Please allow me to * address email is removed from the privacy *.

  If it is unallocated space, the first step is to create a partition: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/fr-fr/Windows-Vista/Create-and-format-a-hard-disk-partition.  Also read the articles referenced for additional information on the implementation of these partitions correctly.

  Once the partitions are created they can be expanded or narrowed (as long as they are contiguous) If you care about this:http://Windows.Microsoft.com/fr-fr/Windows-Vista/Create-and-format-a-hard-disk-partition.  This can be done in readers, but only in the same drive.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Excessive use of disk space on the computer.

  With my machine Win7 with nothing other than the operating system and software support (AV, ZAfirewall, wireless) what's with 32 GB of disk space?

  This machine is alive for 3 weeks.

  Now my XP machine which is alive for years and has all of its updates as well as tons of other software collected over the years and it is only using 8 gig.

  Why the huge difference?

  Oh I agree, it will be never be the same. But it's strange to use 30 + GB on a new installation.

  But absolutely.  You cannot buy a different system and wait until it has the same footprint as a predecssor. It's like saying 'My XP uses more space than BACK!', well duh, BACK fits on a floppy :)

• Why Lightroom uses hard disk space if my catalog is in dropbox?

  I am new to Lightroom and love it so far. In addition to some external hard drives backup, I keep all my photos on Dropbox and am currently trying to build my library in Lightroom by importing my photos. Because I'll be editing my photos from multiple computers, I decided to move my Lightroom Catalog to Dropbox as well. This way I can continue to ensure coherence between several machines in my library.

  My question, however, is that whenever I have import photos, I seem to be consumes hard disk space on my computer. I'm confused because my photos and catalog are in Dropbox, so this is actually too much space on my hard drive? I just imported approximately 1.63 GB of photos and afterword noticed that 1.46 GB has been written to my hard drive. I know that I am using the correct catalog (also the catalog only I have for Lightroom) because use space has increased after my import on my dropbox catalog file.

  I don't know there's a logical reason - as I said, I'm new to Lightroom so always understand the ins and outs. But if someone could help me out here I would appreciate it a lot!

  Thank you

  By default copy of Dropbox (and synchronizes forever) all in your remote Dropbox folder on each device that you have connected to your Dropbox account.

  1 GB of files in your remote Dropbox folder will also chew up to 1 GB of space on each hard disk attached to the Dropbox account.

  The power of the box lies in its timing in order to always have the latest file available on any device connected to your Dropbox account. The compromise is that 5 appliances also each stores its own copy of the same file. Any changes made to any file on any device is synchronized by Dropbox.

  You can save space locally by allowing a selective sync in Dropbox and saying Dropbox folders to synchronize and copy it to the local disk and which ignores.

  Are you using the selective sync Dropbox?

  However, I am not convinced that selective sync will give you the workflow that you are trying to reach.

• Automatic creation of pools (linked Clone) using powerCLI

  Hello

  I am using powerCLI to create automatic pool (linked clone). I came across the following cmdlet in theVMware powershell integration white paper:

  Get-ViewVC - serverName < IP/domain FULL name >. Add-AutomaticLinkedClonePool-pool_id

  TestAutomaticLinkedClonePool - namePrefix pad - parentVMPath / < Center > < parentVM > /vm/

  -parentSnapshotPath / < cliché - > vmFolderPath / < Center > /vm - resourcePoolPath

  / /host/ < Center > < ESX > / resources - dataStoreSpecs / < Center > /host/ < ESX > / < datastore >

  -composer_ad_id < id ad composer >

  Now, I want to help discover (with an example will be very useful) how you specify and how find you each of the following (as what do I put after each other):

  -parentVMPath

  -parentSnapshotPath

  -vmFolderPath

  -resourcePoolPath

  -dataStoreSpecs

  -composer_ad_id

  Please give an example of each if possible.

  Thank you!

  OK, I'll give it a try.

  The parentVMPath parameter expects the path to the virtual machine that you want to spawn the pool (obviously).

  Such a path looks like this: / MyDC/vm/MyVM

  Where MyDC is the datacentername, the vm folder is hidden folder that contains the hierarchy of models and virtual computers, and finally the name of the virtual machine itself.

  If your master VM is deeper in the structure of folders, just add the folders in the path.

  Ex: / MyDC/vm/Folder1/Folder2/MyVM

  The parentSnapshotPath is similar to the previous setting, but obviously needs to point to the snapshot pool should clone.

  Alan has a nice feature to recover the snapshotpath Updateand re-view pools calm.

  The vmFolderPath is where the virtual machines that are created for the pool to be stored.

  Similar to the previous settings, but now for the record once again.

  Ex: / MyDC/vm/PoolFolder

  resourcePoolPath must point to a resourcepool.

  Such a path will look something like this: / MyDC/host/MyCluster/Resources/MyResourcePool

  Note that host and resources are again hidden folders!

  datastoreSpecs: this is not the most obvious.

  He wants the full path to a data store in a cluster that is specified by a resource pool.

  See the function VVGetDatastorePath to determine the paths to vSphere Datastore objects

  The composer_ad_id wants that the ID of the AD domain, in which the composer is a member server.

  You can get this through to: ComposerDomain-Get | select composer_ad_id

  
  

  As side note, take a look at the Integration of PowerShell with view 5.0 white paper. Perhaps, it is not intended for the latest version of the view

  but he explains some settings a lot better than I could

• Used virtual disk space

  Myself in trouble and am not sure how best to cope. Got a Windows Server 2008 that is configured with a 95 GB HD (which is 95% of 100 GB virtual disk) and now I am unable to create snapshots due to lack of availaable to free space on the data store. I used the disk option "shrink" management Windows disk and reduced the size of the 'C' of 75GB drive and ran the option boom of VMware Tools, which is not the amount of free space on the data store, as seen in VCenter. Also see desperate to back up the data by removing the server and re-building/restoration with a smaller drive 'C' does anyone know of all the other options I could try? Thank you.

  you have an another data store you want Storage vMotion the guest in quesiton to?

• Inaccessible machine always appears as the use of disk space on vCenter

  Hello

  I use an ESX 4 server as a host of a vCenter.  One of our machines has probably been removed via the ESX itself some time ago and it does not exist on the store data, but when you browse the host when it is connected to the vCenter, I see the machine appears under the name "inaccessible".  Now, when I look at the virtual host computers tab, I see that the machine uses up to 25 GB of disk space, but this machine does not really exist on the data store.  I tried refreshing and so forth, but the machine still appears as existing and too much space.  Can someone explain why this is the case?

  Also, I can remove the machine from the inventory and no block will be reserved for this machine?

  Thank you

  Ofer

  If you are sure, that concerned VM is not necessary, do a right-click the VM and remove from the inventory. It won't support a swap file lock in the data store as the heartbeat for this virtual machine is already lost.

  Usually, a VC service is restarted and the removal of the virtual machine directly from host should solve the problem.

  Thank you

• A question about the use of disk space free on a RAID 10 for ASM?

  Is it possible to install/configure 11gDB under the CARS using left over 300 GB of disk space.
  
  I have all my drives configured in RAID 10 and I have 11g THAT RAC installed. I uninstalled RAC and database and then added the required RPM (ASM library and drivers).
  
  Successfully installed the RAC and then proceeds to installation and configuration of 11gDB for ASM using the available disk space.
  
  Is this possible? I get the error message: 11g DB intalled on RAC1 ASM cannot be used until the Oracle CSS service is started.
  
  Thank you

  You get this because CSS is not started, and ASM, it needs.

  As root, go in $ORACLE_HOME/bin and run:
  #. / Add a localconfig

• Better use of disk space on the server esxi (for data store)

  I have a HP Proliant DL380G6 which currently has 2 146 GB hard drives in a Raid0 configuration.  We quickly realize that this is not enough space for all of the virtual machine, we have running.

  Is there a way of 'clean' to add disks to this server - by this I want to say one where we don't have to add readers, and then reconfigure the raid5 raid card, and reinstall...

  And on a related issue (even if it may seem irrelevant):

  Some of our virtual machines are currently on a mounted NFS datastore that I want to spend in the local data store.  One of them has quite a few clichés that take up a lot of space.  What is the CORRECT way to migrate the virtual machine to the other local datastore, get rid of all snapshots (maintenance of the VM in its current state)?

  Believe it or not. . Just select Remove all.

  You are here is not a cliché. . It's your current state and not be deleted unless you select "go to" (note the different icon)

  (even if I understand your concern)

  If you are really nervous and wants to prove it to yourself, just test it on a virtual machine with no snapshots (create a snapshot, add a file, delete the snapshots and see if the files still exists)

• Use of disk space

  I just finished installing windows 7 Home premium that it shows who used 58.9 GB on my hard drive. the box says 20 gig for the installation of 32-bit. whythe difference? It was a fresh install of XP

• Windows Vista PC keeps filling the disk space

  Windows Vista PC keeps filling the disk space, but programs like Treesize and Windows Explorer are not all of the additional files.

  The disc has about 45 GB of files, but the 220 GB drive is almost full. I suspect that a program will create orphaned files. CHKDSK is currently suspended from the second pass. Will try to run until the end of the day to the next.

  I turned on the hidden files and protected, it is not that I can't see the files. What can account for 150 + GB of invisible disk space?  Indexing of Windows seems to be active, although the C drive was marked to not be indexed.

  I know that a temporary internet file (content.ie5) is doubly hidden. Who had only 50 MB in it, so it's not the culprit. Any other hidden super-fichiers that everyone knows.

  Running Trend Micro PC-Cillin. The history of this creation of orphaned files?

  All the tools that look right at the MFT to see what is using the disk space and the avoidance of the directory tree?

  This isn't a matter of a few directories being wholesale, or clean old files. The space used is not anywhere to be found.

  Already run cleaning ccleaner and disk. Empty temporary files, Recycle Bin, etc. Only restore point. Registry clean with ccleaner.

  Never did anything on computer that could use 150 GB of space.

  If you look at just the computer, you can see disappearing disk space (maybe 1 GB an hour).

  Always seems to happen if you disconnect from the internet.

  Friend PC, so I did not have immediate access to it.

  Whence the free number 'space '? I'm just that an orphan file will not be displayed in a search in directories or with Treesize, but will use up to 'free space '?

  No sign of a virus.

  Hello

  Were there any changes made on the computer before the show?

  I suggest to refer to the article and try to defragment the hard disk:

  Improve performance by defragmenting your hard drive

  I understand that you have already scanned the hard drive with anti-virus software, although I suggest you try to run an online scan and check if it helps:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Let us know if it helps.
