• RAW device to the virtual disk migration

  When trying to cold migrate a raw disk device VM of EVA Storage to a virtual disk in a DS8100 it fails with the following message: "incompatible device backup specified for device ´0´" the size of the LUN is Go 510 and appaers message when 100% is full 3 hours laters. I set the block size 2 Mb in the data store, but when I try to migrate a RAw of 100 GB on the same VM migration works very well and I use the new virtual disk without problems.

  This could be a problem with the maximum of storage migration?

  Could you tell me if you know another way to migrate this raw device on the virtual disk?

  TKS!

  Have you tried VMware Converter inside the guest who has the backend RDM?

• Device unknown Base system-> card reader, ThinkPad T430 2349 Win7

  Hi all

  I got a new ThinkPad T430 2349 and installed Windows 7. After installing the drivers, everything works fine, except the card reader. It it is not found, on the contrary, there is a device unknown base system listed in the hardware Manager. The hardware of this base system device id is:

  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_E822 & SUBSYS_21F317AA & REV_07

  This should indeed be the card reader.

  Should which driver I?

  I have already installed without success:

• TMS directory failed in the endpoints of series C after the migration of the device to the virtual computer

  Hi all

  We have migrated the 12.8 TMS from the device to the TMS 13.0 on the VM platform. There is no matching TMSPE and mainly used for management and directory service.

  Once the migration is complete on the platform of the VM, we found that endpoint C-series could not receive phonebook of TMS (while 95 MXP endpoints works very well with the TMS directory).

  The end point of series C, we check the Configuration-> directory server 1: URL. The link is converted from http:// /tms/public/external/phonebook/phonebookservice.asmx http:// tms/public/external/phonebook/phonebookservice.asmx.

  (In addition, we check the authorization of the two phone book page, and there is no IIS issue).

  In the 95 MXP endpoint, it can receive the telephone directory unit VM MSD and MSD.

  Best regards

  Hi Ben,

  As confirmed by the curl command - you don't have access to the web page as an anonymous user.  You have to fix your permissions.  One of the fastest ways to do would be to try to reinstall the MSDS on the server again - this should reconfigure the IIS settings required for TMS.

• Going from raw devices to ASMLib

  Hello, I decided to migrate from raw devices of ASMlib (Oracle 10.2.0.5, RHEL5). Seems to be that this is not a trivial task. Having 2 ocr, 3 voting and 1 data, all mapped as/dev/raw/rawX partititons.

  Thus, base of data of shutdown, and then click stop the ASM instance, after this attempt to run:

  /etc/init.d/oracleasm force-renamedisk/dev/sdb1 OCR1 (so this is a first disc OCR, which is now linked to/dev/raw/raw1), but still get an error:

  Rename the disk ' / dev/sdb1 ' to "OCR1": [FAILURE]

  Any ideas, what is the problem?

  
  

  Is NOT supported to install files Oracle Clusterware (Oracle Cluster registry) and the files on disc with right to vote in groups of disks ASM Oracle 11.1 and prerequisites.

  Is supported for install files Oracle Clusterware (Oracle Cluster registry) and voting disk files in Oracle 11.2 ASM disk groups and above.

• How to find the logic of a RAW device unit ID-number

  Hello

  I am trying to create a workflow that will give me information about a virtual machine:

  • RAM
    
  • CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT
    
  • Disk configuration
    
    • Size, SCSI Bus
      
    • ..
      

  My problem is to understand the LUN ID to a RAW device in a virtual computer.

  I think, a RAW device is listed as the VcVirtualDisk type too?

  Anyone know how to determine the LUN ID of a RAW device?

  Thank you

• EliteBook 8540p: I have no driver or registration for memory card reader in Device Manager

  There is no registration for my memory card reader in Device Manager. The card reader does not work. SD card works in my other PC. Tried to download the Driver Ricoh Media Card Reader suggested by HP Support, with no results. It's as if there is no such thing as the card reader. Is there a way to shake the player in a localizable device? Or is it dead material?

  Hello:

  If there is that no device Base system not listed in Device Manager in need of drivers, then the unit is completely dead/disconnected from the motherboard.

  I'm not a PC repair in commerce or training technology, and there are no diagrams of the motherboard I know to see how the circuit card reader is attached to the Board of Directors.

  If you look at Chapter 4, pp 93-94's service manual, it seems that you can replace all separately.

• No download memory card reader

  My computer is a HP Pavilion HPE-210F model.

  I use Windows 7 Home 64-bit version.

  The computer cannot read my Xd picture card when it is inserted.

  When I go to the Manager of system properties/devices and scroll down for disk drives, listed are 4 card readers that can identify the computer working. I am using is the device USB SM/xD-Picture.

  If I right click and select Properties, it says it works Ok.  I tried to leave the computer to upgrade the driver but it says that the installed drive is fine. Ok

  Hand-held devices, he says I have 4 WPD files Volume drivers each with a scream on them and if I right click on each of these and select properties it gives me has this device cannot start code (10). I deleted all file system drivers and let the computer restore top drivers, but it does not solve the problem with the exclamtion point.

  Using either the software provided with the photo gallery live microsofts camera or use, I still can't download

  When I insert the card into the slot. A green light comes on telling me that he recognizes the card and a small icon will appear in the Task Manager, but if I go to 'My Computer' it does not show a player work as you can see, with a CD player. When I connect the camera with a USB cable it will appear in 'My Computer', such as registered and displays an image of a disc like post photos...

  Also, there are 2 USB ports alongside the locations of memory card and they work very well as I have it plugged the camera into one of the slots and the computer registerd the camera.

  The map just do not work in my player, but work in the camera?

  If it's the pins how you can staighten them, I can barely see inside the slot.

  I think its this driver WPD file system, but I do not know how to change.

  The camera is an Olympus Stylus 830 photo Xd Olympus M 2 G card.

  Any advice would be greateful.

  Portable devices like the photo card reader to be attributed to a F, G, H and I drive letter depending on the number of dwellings of readers you have in your pc. Chances are you don't publish a drive letter for drive cards and instead of this you see something like

  WPD filesystem with a driver several times exclamation point because your system can read several types of cards, but you have not issued a drive letter for the berries.

  If you open the control panel and administrative select Tools, computer, in the section storage management, clck disk management all your hardware, you should see readers for your pc. Make sure that you assign a drive letter to each card reader device, so he gets a letter.

  Restart your pc

  Next time you open Device Manager, you will see a letter for each of your devices portable drive instead of the system drive of WPD files with this exclamation point.

  Insert your memory card and it should be able to read.

  Why windows doesn'r just assign a drive letter automatically for readers of I don't know

• Satellite P300 - 1-9-10 SD card reader code

  Hi all

  I have a new Toshiba P300 - 1 9, good for six months, and have just for the first time I tried an SD card into the slot of the multimedia card digital.
  The card does not appear in 'my computer '. In Device Manager it shows with the yellow sign fault warning of a problem.
  Double click it gives this message "this device cannot start code 10" in the management of the disk of the card is not listed in the upper pane, but shows as a player in the lower pane without a drive letter assigned.

  If I try to assign a drive letter, I get a message saying that the operation failed because the disk management console view is not updated.
  He wants to refresh the view by using the refresh task. Which does nothing.

  I reinstalled the drivers for the SD card listed under disk drives when the card is in, storage controllers and generic volume on storage volumes. I've also updated the driver for SD host adapters.

  A card format made no difference. I know that the card reader is correct because a few days ago, I took an image updated with Acronis TI and then reinstalled the OS from the recovery media. The card worked fine then. I have now put the Acronis image and the map does not work. I had loads of driver updates on the road to Toshiba for various things (but not the card reader) through their service Tempro, including an update of the bios.
  I wonder if the bios update caused the problem. I'm debating whether the BIOS to the default setting.

  I have tried everything I can think and followed by a number of suggestions after googling the problem. The MS Knowledge Base was not very useful and many people seem to have the same problem. I am now at a total loss.

  Thank you

  cheven

  Any ideas would be welcome.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The 10 error code means that the device cannot start.
  Card reader is not ready and is not running and therefore the SD card cannot be used and is not recognized in my computer.

  In most cases the update driver/relocation should help sort put them this question.
  Satellite P300 - 1 9 belongs to the PSPCCE series.

  The European driver Toshiba page provides the controller driver of card reader for this model of laptop. This is the driver that controls the SD card.

  I recommend that you download this driver. Access the Device Manager, and then uninstall the previous driver. Reboot the laptop.
  After restarting again the OS must find a new device and should request the necessary driver.
  Then you must point to the driver that you downloaded and should complete the installation.

  Usually, this should solve your problem.

• EliteBook 8740W after HP, SD card reader driver update appears as XD Picture Card

  Hello

  I have an EliteBook 8740W mobile workstation, and it's been great up to a recent software update.

  I don't know exactly when it started because I use not the constantly SD card reader but after a recent update HP Support Assistant, the SD card reader has a problem: any type of card, I put in there, he thinks it's a xD Picture Card.

  I have several different SD cards and tried all. They work fine on other devices; but when I put in the card on the EliteBook reader, same thing: Xd Picture Card. If I click it to open it Windows says 'Please insert a Picture Card xD'

  Device Manager displays the card reader, like the three types of support:

  

  But if I turn off the device of xD-Picture card, it doesn't recognize any card inserted at all.

  So, basically, the SD 'detection', if nothing else, is broken, and he thinks that SD cards are cards xD.

  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the full card reader drivers and it still does the same thing.

  Thank you!

  Right click on each of these Ricoh entries in Device Manager and select uninstall.

  When finished

  Right click on any device in DM and select 'Search for hardware changes' Windows reinstall the hardware and drivers, see if that helps, if not I think the reader can have due to a malfunction.

  Use a bright flashlight and make sure nothing got in the card slot that should not be there.

• Best practices - virtual disk of Raw device mapping vs

  Hello

  A small question about the configuration. What would be described as the best practice to configure a comment server that required a large amount of disk space? What is the preferred option:

  1 - create a virtual machine with a mapping of raw device to the LUN (on a san)

  or

  2 - create a virtual machine with another large virtual disk that is in a data store on the LUN (on a san)

  Thank you

  Dave

  Kader you are limited with 2 TB in any case (except using the iSCSI software from within the guest operating system), the only arguments are:

  (1) use RDM if it is possible that you will connect to this physical machine LUN. Or you already have the unit number logic of a physical machine as a large file server.

  (2) VMFS use in all other situations - VMDK give flexibility, you can migrate the virtual machine where you want.

• How to migrate VM from\TO Raw Device Mapping (RDM) (data store)

  Hi all

  I have aske on the migration of VM from\TO Raw Device Mapping (RDM) (data store)?

  Thank you all for your support

  If you are using vSphere 5, then you can SvMotion the VM attached to a RDM (physical or virtual) with no problems. This means that only RDM mapping file will be moved to another data store without any conversion of changes on the real disc of RDM.

  Note: Do not attempt to change the format of disc thin or thick, which would cause the RDM disk converter for virtual disk.

  More info here: http://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2012/02/migrating-rdms-and-a-question-for-rdm-users.html

  If vSphere 4.x is used, hot and then migrate the virtual machine to another store of data will not change the format of the ROW, only mapping file will be moved. This is true for virtual and physical RDM.

  However, the cold migrate the virtual machine to another Datatore will change the ROW to virtual disk format.

  HTH... Let me know if you have any questions...

• HPDM and "Device ID" problem with Citrix virtual card

  In our image, there is the Citrix "virtual" adaptor, and this seems becausing a "Device ID" conflcit with some computers.

  I'm sitting here, watching the HPDM to change host name and the IP address of the line of the device so that the device ID is remaining the same. Didn't understand why my tasks were failing or passes to two computers at the same time until I realized that it takes device ID of the first found on the system Mac address.

  Is there anyway that I can get HPDM or HPDMAgent to choose the Mac of a different adapter to give his "Device ID"? It seems that HPDM is not able to send a single task to a single device, given that a host name and IP, but it also shuts down and send it to any other device that has the same "device id" (mac address).

  Then, when I run "ipconfig/all", the virtual map of Citrix (citrix vpn client) shows first, before the Local connection area Realtek, that's why I'm assuming HPDM straightens the Mac of Citrix first address which is duplicate with other systems which also have installed Citrix virtual card.

  We have a fix for this kind of question.

  The new design is to filter all of the virtual card, DM will pick up the mac address of the physical NIC as device ID.

  The fix will include 4.6 SP1 which aims in mid-May.

• Virtual Raw Device Mapping

  Can someone explain to me the difference between a regular virtual disk and a virtual raw device mapping? When I create the RDM I am just creating a file pointer to the correct virtual file? If yes why anyone would use virtual raw device instead of just mapping to create a typical virtual drive? I understand the benefits and limitations of the physical RDM I just do not understand the goal of the RDMS virtual.

  Well, even if a RDM in virtual mode allows you to use the tricks and VMware snapshots is not always the same thing as VMFS datastore.   As stated previously, you can easily remove this ROW and the provision of a physical server without losing a bit of data or to copy.
