Native clones of the name.vmdk file hierarchy is too deep

I'm just kicking the tires on this new 5.1.2 environment and testing to get it up and running, but I see some really weird storage related issues while trying to do the basic tasks in the GUI.  When I try to provide more than 1 VM in a TIME I get an error indicating insufficient permissions or data store has exceeded its limit on the number of files and when I try to publish things in an organization in the catalogue of this organization I get an error message indicating that the native clones of the vmdk file hierarchy is too deep.

The storage array access r/w and root for data warehouses, so I really feel like permissions are not the issue.  Does anyone have ideas on this?

While trying to provide more than 1 VM in a paralytic:

Insufficient permissions or data store has exceeded its limit on the number of files.

vCenter Server task (moref: task-2102) failed in vCenter Server 'dccvcdvcprd01' (1c495c36-1f5b-4322-bc19-b77b8526b898).

Thanks in advance!

Resolved:

This has proved to be a problem associated with VAAI table level.  We run R31 code on our storage VNX and 'Clone support nested VAAI' array not coming into game until R32/INYO to VNX.  I temporarily spent at FC storage because doing an upgrade right now is not an option for us, but I did a few tests by installing the data warehouses NFS to an array of INYO to these hosts and managed the same tasks without problem (very quickly I might add).

  • Can I globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?

    in Windows XP or in Windows 7, globally change the names of files and or directory to lowercase to uppercase?

    A single configuration change probably will not accomplish this.

    Your best bet is probably the freeware "Bulk Rename Utility" program which has a section dedicated to change the case of file names.

  • Want to copy and paste the names of files only, not the content

    I have organized hundreds of files in several folders of dozens and that you must first create a list or map of all files.  I want only the names of files, not other thing.  I found some freeware that seems designed to do this, but am reluctant to download.  Can it be done without additional software?  If I can't do the regular windows environment, someone suggest what software is the easiest to achieve?

    There are a lot of reliable freeware websites.  What program have you found, and this web site is on?

    To do the work of the normal Windows environment, click Start > all programs > Accessories > command prompt and enter these commands:

    CD /d "" path ".
    dir/b/s >"" file
    ".

    where:

    path = full path to the file
       file = name of the file to write

    For example, to create a list of files in My Documents and write it to a file named My Documents.txt :

    CD/d "C:\Documents and Settings\Utilisateur\Mes Documents"
    dir/b/s > "My Documents.txt."

    The /s parameter lists the files in the selected folder and all its subfolders.  The omit if you want just the files in the selected folder. Boulder computer Maven

  • How to export all the names of files in a folder to simple text file.

    Hello Expertise,

    I am trying to load the names of files in the folder to a table in ODI. then load the data from there to a single table.

    I am able to load the data from 100 files in a folder. using the concept of loop (used ODI gurus: SEVERAL FILES - TARGET SINGLE TABLE - SINGLE INTERFACE link to do this, but right now I need to insert the names of files manually to a table. ) My Question is "is there any jython script or procedure to load all the file names to single table with FILENAME column. ???


    If it please help me do this.


    Thank you

    Shakur

    Hi Shakur,

    Yes you are right... The operating system command should be part of the automated process, I mean if you combine these file loading process (Interface, procedure, etc.) in a package of ODI, then the command BONES to get all the names of files in the FOLDER should be one of the steps in the package of ODI. For this, you can use ODI OS command component.

    Kind regards

  • Reset cbt - cannot get rid of the ctk vmdk files

    Hi, I have a known problem with the backup of my virtual machines where I need to reset the CBT. The procedure I have the backup software is as follows;

    Solution:

    Please follow the steps below to reset the CBT for a specific virtual machine.

    1. turn off the virtual machine

    2. right click on the virtual machine, click on "Change settings", find the 'Options' tab and click 'settings of Configuration.

    3. set the value of 'ctkEnabled' to false

    4. set the 'scsi0:x.ctkEnabled' to false for each disk of the virtual machine in question

    5. open the source folder and remove all - CTK. VMDK files.

    6. turn on the virtual machine

    7. power off the virtual machine again. This step is necessary to update the table of CTK.

    8 turn on the virtual machine

    9 replay backup task.

    So I have 2 VMs. VM1 and VM2. Both are win2k12 r2 (they are created the same day, the same way, installation of r2 std win2k12, patches, etc...). In step 5, for both servers, even if I delete the ctk.vmdk files, they are automatically reproduced so I can't delete them. Then I continued with the neverthless steps. After step 8, I saw that for VM1, has more ctk.vmdk files so that they are deleted somewhere in the process by the server itself. So my guess is that step 5 is not relevant. The problem I have is that even if I did exactly the same thing for VM2, ctk.vmdk files are never deleted. I reboot 3 times, I tried to manually remove them several times, they always, never to return, they are deleted.

    So, basically, I can't reset the cbt on VM2. I double check this ctkenabled are all 'fake' (tried also uppercase) still no luck. Any ideas how I could get rid of these ctk.vmdk files?

    Thank you

    Hi, proved that there was a snapshot. As soon as I deleted it, the ctk files disappeared.

  • Hi, is it possible to change the names of files that export out of indesign while packing?

    Hi, is it possible to change the names of files that export out of indesign while packing?

    For example, I can change the "Font of the Document" folder to export as a "document-fonts"?

    I ask because our naming structure requires without capital letters and no spaces. Spaces are replaced by dashes (-).

    And it would be nice if it was always exported as needed, instead of having to go back and change the names of files.

    Thank you! Much appreciated!

    Which cannot be changed without having a bad effect,. The name "Document fonts" is special. When you compress a file with fonts in a folder using exactly this name, InDesign know that these policies should be open and will be used in the document to the other end. If you name this file anything else, InDesign ignore fonts and the recipient will have to open the fonts manually.

    If you have decided to change the folder names, you will need to do once the package created, perhaps with a script.

  • deleted all vm outside the flat vmdk files - recovery?

    In a moment of madness I accidentally tried to remove a virtual machine from a data store. All updated files other than the flat vmdk file then deleted... It is not a critical system, but I still prefer to retrieve by using the existing if possible vmdk file. Since it is a flat file without descriptor I can not simply use it as basis for a new virtual machine, then how would you go to get it? In my view, a provisioning was not used, so should I just copy on a linux machine, it mount it and copy the relevant files or I can pick it up in esx - i?

    Edit: I should probably add that I know the exact size of the disc, but when I try to create new disks I can't manage to get split into flat vmdk / basic (with an idea of just using the new disks for the old descriptor)

    Take a look at sanbarrow.com for some details on this kind of issue, but basically, you can follow this process

    (1) create a new virtual machine with the same disc than the old size.

    (2) copy the file descriptor on file with just the file flat.vmdk left.

    (3) change the descriptor file (hard) and update to point to the old file flat.vmdk.

    (4) allowing the VM.

    (5) change the new virtual machine and delete the virtual HD.

    (6) copy the old file to the new folder VM with vmkfstools.

    (7) to change the new virtual machine and add a file of existing (using the new copy) drive.

    (8) to turn on the virtual machine.

    But before that, you can you

    1) check for us if the virtual machine still works

    (2) post a list of the folder where the virtual computer files were (with the-l option to show the size of the file).

    (3) can you tell me what VMware product and version are you using?  I guess ESXi 3.5 but it would be preferable to confirm.
