More than 2 TB LUN

I am setting up a new server and would like to have 3 x 2 TB drives configured in a RAID 5 array. I read online about VMware limited with the creation of LUN more than 2 TB and that the workaround is to create multiple LUNS using extensions. My question is, are there limitations that could affect the possibility of creating several LUN - for example, are there only certain RAID controllers that support this?

Cheers, Kris

The controller Dell RAID (PERC) is able to create multiple logical disks (volumes) by a single RAID group.

Enter your PERC BIOS during startup and create 2 volumes.

  • Cannot use more than 184 GB of data on TB LUN 2.14 store

    I have a Dell R710 set up with 5 X 600 GB disk in raid 5. We wanted to try to ESXi, but have encountered a problem. When I go to create the data store ESXi shows I 2.14 TB of storage, but it only allows me to create a 184,62 GB data store. I tried to delete the virtual disk from Dell and build a new raid set without success. I tried the block size in ESXi and even the option of scores available and the same thing happens. Any ideas. Thank you in advance.

    You will need to create a slightly less than 2 TB LUN. ESX (i) acknowledges that LUN 2 TB-512 b in size. You can use the virtual disk Dell to create 2 discs and two of them present to ESXi.

  • VMFS Datastore 3.33 more than 2 TB?

    I was wondering if I could spend my store of data from more than 2 TB which is a VMFS, block of 4mg 3.33.

    Thank you

    The maximum size of data store can be up to 64, but you'll need multiple 2 TB LUNS and add them as extensions. Keep in mind that with 4 MB block, the maximum file size is 1 TB. Another option is if you are running vSphere ESXi 5.x, you can install the VMFS version 5 and take advantage of larger size of the LUN with VMDK support, anyway if you are in this case, I recommend you create a new data store and migrate the old data store data.

    In parameters, iCloud Drive was churning "valorisation" for more than a day now. Did not help restart the phone. iPhone 6 s, iOS 10.0.2.

    Thank you!

    What kind of "reboot", you have?  What was this - restart your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support?  If you did, and it did not work, try switching iCloud drive, power switch (settings > iCloud > iCloud drive).  If this does not work, try to connect to your iCloud account and reconnect.

    Hello monorayfromportland,

    If you are unable to connect to the iTunes Store on your Apple TV, take a look at the troubleshooting steps below:

    If you cannot connect to the iTunes Store

    If you cannot connect to the iTunes Store on your Apple TV (4th generation):

    1. Make sure that your date and time are correct. Go to settings > general > Date and time.
    2. Check if your Apple TV software is up-to-date. To check the updates, select settings > system > software updates > software update.
    3. Make sure you have an active network connection. Go to settings > network.
    4. Check to see if other devices, such as computers or tablets, can connect to Wi - Fi and access to the Internet.
    5. Reset the wireless router by turning and then again.

    Take care.

  • How can I view more than 150 emails in Mail on iPhone with iOS 10 7?

    Since the upgrade to iOS 10.0.1, I can no longer view more than 150 e-mail messages in a folder.  This happens with IMAP accounts as well as my iCloud email account.  Before iOS 10, with accounts IMAP, when you sailed until the end of the list of messages, the phone would then charge a 150 additional messages from the server.  With iOS 10, this happens.  Thus, on e-mail accounts that I have on the phone who do not receive a lot of messages through the day, I post only 1-2 days of e-mail messages.  The same behavior is experienced on iPhone 7, 6 s iPhone and iPad Mini 3 - all iOS 10.0.1 running.

    Hi there RickNY,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!  I am happy to help you with your iOS devices does not not more than 150 messages after updating to iOS 10.  I know how it is important to be able to access old emails.

    I would like to begin by consulting a setting in Mail.

    1. Go to the settings app
    2. go to mail > THREADING
    3. Make sure you have organize by live wire (green)

    Please check your Mail application and see if you are now able to load older messages.

    Best wishes!

  • iPhone more than 7

    Hi Apple,

    I bought the iphone 6 s Plus 64 GB it there a few months, the loan of apple citizens we. Already, I have paid 13 installments. I just sign up for the program. I signed no upgrade program, when I bought this phone.

    I want to spend my 6s phone more than 64 GB Iphone 7 Plus 128 GB. Please help me. What should I do?

    Thank you.

    Your phone is not on the iPhone (IUP) update program which means that you can not get to trade in your 6 sec for a 7.

    The only way to do is to continue to pay the outstanding loan to satisfy the agreement with the Bank of the citizen.

    Then go this weekend and apply to IUP as a new client and service.  You can then move the SIM card from the s 6 to 7 and continue.

    Yes, you will have 2 loans / obligations but since order you to have your 6s (partially) and you don't want to ruin your credit - you must continue to make payments or just pay off.

    Once you pay the 6s, you can then sell it and get some money back.

    I wouldn't trade it to Apple under the recycling program - they don't give a lot.

    I have a 6 128 GB 2 years ago that I own and it will sell on eBay and get 100% more than that Gazelle or Apple will pay for it.
