VMWare users have found a solution for the following?
Readers of PERC H700 and H800 (firmware current 12.10.4 - 0001 A10, r610 servers) allow the user (in the bios during startup) to create new virtual disks using non Dell drives, but you cannot expand a virtual disk existing readers not Dell, when in the bios. The option is grayed out.
OMSA for Windows bypasses it. Virtual disk | Tasks | Reconfigure can do online capacity expansion and accepts disks not Dell for this.
Problem is OMSA to VMWare ESXi (v7.2, the current version and older versions) doesn't have a virtual disk tasks fall to the bottom. You can not even a hard drive flashes. (VMWare ESXi = v5.1)
The only solution we can think of is to have two drive arrays connected to the computer, and create a simple Windows with OMSA, boot in Windows Server to expand the virtual disk using OMSA for Windows.
I would be interested in the comments of others, including those of Dell. We spent hours on the phone with Dell; This seems to be the only solution. (Yes, Dell released a firmware version last year that has ceased blocking non Dell readers, but it only works for the creation of a new virtual disk, do not expanding one existing).
The firmware update the unlocked non certified discs was in July 2010 (two years ago). No latest updates seem to speak of changes/updates to update that.
I don't know why uncertified discs would be blocked for a single operation (expansion/reconfigure) - are get you certain types of message that certainly is the case? Did you do that with certified readers? Last I heard, Dell had a firmware update in the works that would allow an extension to get the CTRL-R utility, where it historically could not be done from there. 12.10.4 as of 2012, I guess (if the Dell guy who told me he rode was OK) this update has not been released yet... However, I could be wrong. I don't have a H700 to test with, but you can try OMSA live as an alternative to the construction of a temporary Windows Server to try the expansion of the OMSA.

I have problems with my view i camera on my Mac Book Pro. Suddenly the video camera does not work (no green light on) FT or Photo Booth. The screen is black, if I restart it, it works but after closing the lid it stops and I have to restart the computer. I use V10.11.3. An idea about what is happening
Hello mpm068,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.
Since your iSight webcam works up to the time that your Mac goes to sleep, I would like you to start please help desk trying to replicate this problem then to reboot in safe mode:
Choose the Apple menu > shut down.
After your Mac stops, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.
As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
You must press the SHIFT key as soon as possible once you hear the startup tone, but not before.
Release the SHIFT key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.
To exit safe mode, restart your Mac, but no press during the startup.
OS X El Capitan: start in safe mode
Take care.

my memory card for my digital camera does not work when I put it in the memory card slot
I use vista and a emachine El 1200-07w. It worked last week I just stuck the memory card and a menu pops up saying what are the options I could do (for example, open the folder, etc.) now, when I put the memory card in nothing happens, but if the memory card is in when the computer is turned on, then he will say new hardware detected but it can't find a driver for it. Why is it does not work now, but was last week and how the hell can solve this problem. I have no software for my digital camera, I always just went out the memory card it stuck in the memory card slot and it was very good. It's just a less expensive memory card (Lexar) I have a 2 GB and 128 MB and will no longer work. Thanks for any help!
Hi, I hope you can follow this. Remove the storage card from the computer, then go to control panel
then
Device Manager
Expand portable devices
the type of memory card slots should be listed if your type is a yellow triangle in it,
Right-click on it and choose uninstall.
It should reinstall it automatically or when you put the memory card in the slot.
This type of fault is often caused by not using material on the taskbar does not safely remove request. -
Printer spooler does not work for a single user on the network printer
original title: very different printer problem
I have a HP deskjet printer shared from a PC on the network.
I was informed of a single person could not access error poped by saying "printer spooler does not work.
I went to the services and made sure it was infact running and rebooted to be sure also restarted the RPC services as it is addictive
Still, the user cannot print to the printer. I took the computer that has been seen issues and hung where fixed my PC and I am able to connect and print!If I move my computer witch would allow me to print before there where his computer is my computer prompt same error
My idea is - what some are how a network issue, but the user can still access drives network, internet and other printers on the network
Just not this printer
The computer on the share is is a windows xp sp2 workstationThe computer with the issue is any system I plug its cable Ethernet (XP anyway) I have not tried with a windows machine 7.
My hypothesis is a bad Ethernet cable? I'm quite lost with this question at this stage.
My next step is to hang the printer until a print area and assign an IP address and finish with the share.
(Still not sure if it would help or not)
Any advice is welcome thanks
It turned out to be a bad switch. I don't understand why it did not work. All the computers had no problems other than the present even that if I swapped the ports it has made a difference.
Hung new switch and all computers works fine now.

What is the faulty drive, or the software that is missing
Hello
What happens if you close all programs and then insert the disc?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have problems with CD/DVD drive:
Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.Your CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs
