Linked Clones and snapshots - which can be removed and when?

Hello

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I'm new to the linked clones.

I was able to create clones related win2k8r2 invited.  Everything seems to work ok.  However, once a linked clone is created, is it still necessary to keep the parent snapshot?  That is to say, snapshot of the parent is necessary after related cloning?

My env:

VMware ESXi 4.1.0 build-433742

VMware vSphere PowerCLI 4.1 build 332441 U1

Thank you

It must be remembered that a clone is based on the parent machine and a snapshot that you see in the server view.  Multiple snapshots can be consolidated or "rolled up", but depends on the clone.  The parent can put off when the do not need to save on resources in your environment, because that's what the replica is for.  I do not agree with Andre and suggest that you keep the snapshot that you clones are configured to use, with the exception on the consolidation of old clichés.

    I have an email in my outlook express (BOX SENT) that I can't remove. When I try it freezes the computer. It was an e-mail I was trying to send

    and it has been sent. Someone knows how to remove it.

    original title: Email in outlook express

    Check for working offline and see if it will delete, or else create a new Outbox and sent items folder.

    Follow these steps for the Outbox, sent items after you move the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create. Just don't touch the problem message so OE will not freeze.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the Outbox.dbx and Sent Items.dbx file and remove them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    To avoid this in the future:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • Problem with the floating linked clones and Persona

    Hello

    We run a build view Horizon 6.2.0 - 3005368.

    Just improved our VMware environment to 6.2 and installing an APEX 2800 PCoIP card on our guests.

    I had a pool of office dedicated clone bound for users.

    Now, I made a new image of master and made a new Automated Desktop Pool pool who are floating clone related.

    With the dedicated bound vmis, we place disc profiles of users etc are located.

    With the new pool, I'll use Persona. I followed this guide - http://terenceluk.blogspot.no/2012/10/configuring-roaming-profiles-with.html?showComment=1445933020356 and it works very well indeed, almost.

    For users of a trial, I can see that if something I save it to the desktop, it will be saved on the server of file \\fileserver\redirected$\%username%\Desktop

    When I use my user and try to even something on the desktop - it c:\%username%\Desktop

    I tried to reset, remove my user etc., but it's not. All the settings I made in the GPO - Computer Configuration-> administration-> classic administrative templates (ADM) models-> Configuration of the VMware View Agent-> Persona

    Management-> Folder Redirection

    But my users settings are only "local".

    How is it?

    This can be caused by an incorrect action or NTFS permissions on the redirection of folder/persona.

    She is also due if your user account has a profile on the parent whose linked clone desktops are created.

  • Linked Clones and SCSI controller

    I created an automated linked clone pool that points to a virtual machine Windows XP parent. I used the parallel LSI Logic Controller and the value of the SCSI disk (0:0). The problem is, after the pool is created, when the user connects, they invited to a username and password with this message "you must be member of the Administrators group on this computer to install this equipment. SCSI controller.

    I don't do our domain users members of the local Administrators group, so this creates a big problem.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Mike

    Please perform following steps.

    -----------------------------------------

    • Create a new virtual machine with custom SCSI controller. (Keep floppy drive configuration)
    • Extract the downloaded driver symmpi_wXP_1201800.zip (version 1.28.03)
    • The driver disk image can be by editing the VM, floppy.
    • Start the installation of Windows XP, press F6 when request and then point to the driver on the floppy drive
    • Continue and finish the installation.
    • Now to use this virtual machine as a VM parent, and it should solve your problem
  • linked clones and their video card settings

    So I notice when connecting to my linked clones w / the customer discovers that moving an application from one monitor to the other window rows.  My first thought was to increase the memory under the parameters of the virtual machine to 128 and check the 3D support (for smile).  However, it seems that my settings are saved and then automatically indented the previous value in the window recent tasks of the vsphere client.  I thought maybe it was because my parents VM had settings before taking the s so I stopped, changed the settings and then made a new test pool.  No dice.  What gives, and how do I then increase video performance if I'm not allowed to change the settings on the parent VM or the clones themselves?  Thank you!

  • On vSphere Linked Clone and Lab Manager 4

    Hello

    In the Lab Manager Installation and Upgrade guide, there is a sentence saying: "Lab Manager is not compatible VMware Fault Tolerance (FT) or clones linked vSphere.".

    My question is: "what is a vSphere Linked Clone? Is is distinguished by a Clone of VMware? Because as far as I am concerned, the linked cloning technology came from Lab Manager right?

    Thank you!

    Welcoem to the Forums - Yes TI a vSphere Linked Clone is different from that in Lab Manager Linked Clone but unserlying technology is the same - the difference is whtechnology manages the linked clone - vSphere is handled only by the vSphere environment while a cloned associated Lab Manager is managed by you are your Lab Manager environment.

  • Funky links don't move - how can I remove them?

    I'm editing a PDF file in Acrobat 9 Pro.  I don't have the original document from which the PDF was created.

    As part of the edition, I'm moving chunks of text around - pushing the paragraphs together, moving them to other pages, etc..  Some of these paragraphs have links in them.  When I move the paragraphs, the text moves, but the link does not work.  It is somehow left.  I can't figure out how to remove the link (I'm not seeing and that you cannot select object editing tool).  So, there are invisible at random links in the middle of the pages... which is a bad thing.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

  • View of VM, linked Clones and Thinapp to a group of users?

    In our configuration of the display, I have a pool of 80 people, some users have asked MS Visio.

    I created a package of visio and wanted to deploy to a group of users, but I can only assign to a pool.

    Is it possible so I can assign MS Visio only to a certain (AD) Group of people without having to create an additional pool?

    For another application, I use the security feature in the application thinapped, which do not allow users to start the program and again reports an error message. It does not work with visio propperly: a user with visio can open files visio very well with the editor, a user without visio should get the (internet Explorer) visio Viewer, but the application is launched instead (which restores the safety message and the user cannot view the visio file).

    In theory if you added it to a pool only people within the security group would be able to access.   You can also use a login script register which means that it could only be saved for those who can visit his profile.    See the link below for example sript login.

  • Linked clones and several subnets / VLAN

    Hey all,.

    In an environment with thousands of VMS, there at - it a better practical method to deal with the fact that some of the clones will be on different subnets or VLANS?

    For example, imagine 500 clients need to be on a separate network other clones.

    • Creation of another master VM model would cause more costs general administrative (maintenance of multiple masters)
    • Manually move the special 500 VMS to their own network would be ok, but it would be lost during a refresh/rebuild because the master is always on the main network.

    From what I've read so far, the best thing to do is a powershell script to change the special virtual machine VIRTUAL LAN after each refresh/redial.

    I wanted to ask you, if there was a best practice for this problem in large environments.

    Thank you
    Drew

    I think that it is an area where the view really fails and should probably be a feature request for future versions.   I didn't know the established practice of the best, but I would probably lean towards the powershell script to make the changes as the easiest to maintain and operate.

  • How can I make room when I can't remove anything when I try to it says not enough room tro as

    My drive has generated has no place on this topic How to make room when I try it says not e3nough space to perform this Act

    What kind of law you want to make?

    Open my computer, right click on disk Local (c) and select Properties.  What are the values of the used space and free space?

    Other than 'disc Local (c)', is another thing that grouped in my computer under the title 'hard drive '?  If so, is it 'readers' on the same physical as C hard disk or another hard drive?

    There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to an external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on an external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions.

    • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
    • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
    • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
    • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
    • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
    • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)

    But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

    In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.
