Maximum disk size for a LUN

Hello

I have a 400 GB LUN I mounted in VI Client as data store (size 399, 2 GB). I want to dedicate that VMFS of D drive on a virtual machine, what size I can do? If I give him all the space, I guess that's not good because there will be more space for metadata.

I usually leave between 10 and 15% of the uncommitted data store. If you plan to use snapshots, you want more free space.

  • How to get the maximum disk size for a powershell prompt

    Hi guys

    I tried all day to get the value of the maximum disk size allocated to a virtual machine. Using get - view I can see the actual size of disc but when I look at VM via 'Edit Machine' I see ' hard disk 1' ability to 40 GB and and size maximum (GB) to 97.5 - How do I get this maximum size via powershell?

    See you soon

    Sparky

    Near there, it is actually the amount of free space on the data store over the current size of the hard drive.

    With this script, you can calculate the value

    foreach($dev in (Get-VM  | Get-View).Config.Hardware.Device){
      if($dev.DeviceInfo.Label -like "Hard Disk*"){
        $dsFree = (Get-Datastore (Get-View -Id $dev.Backing.Datastore).Info.Name).FreeSpaceMB
         $diskSize = ($dev.CapacityInKB / 1Kb)
         $MaxSize = $dsFree + $diskSize
         Write-Host "Maximum size for" $dev.DeviceInfo.Label "=" ("{0:f2}" -f (($dsFree + $disksize)/ 1Kb)) "Gb"
      }
    }

    Hello

    That said 500 GB:

    However, a 750 GB hard drive might work too. I can't say with certainty that your pc is a desktop computer and this section is for laptops, but the recovery disk/s may not work on a drive that is much larger than the original one in any case.

  • Block size for the Lun ReFS

    Hello

    What is the best choice for the creation of LUN disks of ReFS? 512 bytes or 4K bytes? The range is hosted by cluster Windows 2016 Hyper-V virtual machines. Storage are EqualLogic PS6100.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Just if I understand your question, you refer to the volume block size 512 EQL or 4 correct K?   If so, then it is not really important.  There is no difference in performance at the storage level.  Readers are all dissected 512b, volume 4K simply translated between them on the fly.

    What you want to do is set the size of cluster/sector at the level of the file system to 64K.  Which will correspond to the size of distribution on the RAIDsets.  This allows more effective reads/writes, writes in particular.   \

    I hope that answered your question?

    Kind regards

  • Maximum file size for export to MP4?

    Hello

    I'm not able to export 2 hours of HD video in standard MP4 file. It seems that, to reach 100% export algorithm gets in a loop. I waited for hours and still had seen progress with exactly 100% the size of the final file on hard drive to be 0 bytes. I use CS5 on MAC OS X, I had to split my calendar of 2 parts and export them separately (which is annoying). Is there something like the size of maximum file to export? I guess that video 2 h would have about 25-35GB.

    Thank you

    It is possible that the SOUL is simply multiplexing audio and video in a single file.  Who can take a long time.

  • NC 4400 maximum disk size

    Hi, I was wondering if there is a limit to the size of the hard drive can I install in my nc 4400

    Thank you simon

    Hi, Simon:

    Since the nc4400 comes with a SATA Smart disc, I think you'd be safe with any size reaching up to 640 GB. Maybe even more.

    I don't know if you get a SATA II drive, if the system will operate at 3.0 Gbps transfer speed well. I don't think so. The specifications list only supported 5 400 rpm disks. A disc of 7 200 rpm would be better, but you will have to take a chance on it. It should work, but I can't say with certainty that it will work.

  • Maximum storage capacity for PowerEdge 1950 III

    Hi guys,.

    Just wondering this as the maximum capacity of hard drives that can take the PowerEdge 1950 III. Ive currently got a 300 GB 15 k Cheetah drive in Bay 0 but I want to change them for 2 tablespoons. I can do this, or must they be smaller. I read on some forums that it might take readers to 2x2TB but according to the technical data it can only take up to 2x750GB which would be disappointing.

    If you need more information I can provide fortunately.

    Thank you
    Arron

    Regardless of the controller you use, the maximum disk size is 2 TB. Do not use expensive desktop/laptop or NAS drives.

  • Size of the LUN Max size minimum and maximum RDM?

    The Maximums on 4.1 Configuration seems to have been a change in the size of the LUN max, of the strange 2 TB - 512 bytes to just 2 TB. Can anyone confirm that it is correct in 4.1? As I understand it in 4.0, if you got your logic unit number created to exactly 2 TB, you have lost about 500 GB of space (?).

    It would be interesting to know if it is "fixed" in 4.1 and if only the use of 4.1 hosts then 2 TB LUNS could be created?

    In addition, the maximum size of RDM always seems to be 2 TB - 512 bytes in 4.1. What is the reason for this kind of limit? If the guest operating system can accept more large drives of 2 TB, which need not enough?

    Yes, there is a maximum specified for the virtual machine.

    Would a connection iSCSI comments launched a LUN liked work of 2 TB (if the guest operating system can handle)?

    Yes, it's a way to work around the limitation of current 2 TB - 512 bytes.

    The information about this change in the passage of Q & A at the end of TA7121 - ' next generation VM Storage Solutions with API for integration (VAAI) Array vStorage "was held in San Francisco just a couple of weeks.

    Interesting. Did you get any sense if this possible change should come an update for 4.0 - 4.1 or may appear in a future version, 4.5 or 5.0?

    I will attend at Vmworld in Copenhagen in October, so maybe I should visit this session.

    You know, I don't really have a strong impression be it on this issue.  My stomach seems to tell me that it will be in the next version of main product.  If I remember correctly, one of the presenters of the session was one of the engineers who worked initially make VMFS.  This session was really good, so I recommend anyway.

  • The maximum size of the Lun

    Hi people,

    What is the maximum size of the LUN vmfs3 and vmfs5?

    Just to add

    In VMFS 3, you may have a data to 64, but this store will be on does not include more than 2 TB.

    This means that you will use 32 2 TB LUN 1 data store. It is not recommended. 1 LUN. bulk loose any data store.

    Where with VMFS 5 you can creat a TB 64 logic unit number (if storage supports) and do a data store.

    Keep the best ratio of 1:1 = 1LUN per Datastore 1 practice

    For more information, see VMFS 3 vs. VMFS 5

    Please mark this thread as answered in the affirmative indeed.
