• Need help with replacement disk on port 0 in Raid1 desktop machine

  I have a HPE 380 t. I have has a RAID1 (mirror) with 2-500 GB Western Digital. When I boot it says the raid has deteriorated and an error has occurred on the player connected to port 0, port 1 player shows ok. It's in the Manager of the Intel Matrix Storage Manager, (Ctrl + I on startup). The machine starts again, but I want to replace the drive on Port 0 with another disk of 500 GB.

  How can I go on that so I don't toast all data on the drive Port1?

  I searched links and other places for help on this but nothing helps! Is there a tutorial or step by step instructions somewhere that I can go?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi Mike,.

  Lucky for you that you are using non-RAID 0 and RAID 1 or your table would probably unusable.

  You can determine the status of your RAID configuration using the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) software.  If you do not have this software on your PC, then you can Download IRST from the Intel web site.  I recommend that you use the latest version available from Intel.  General information can be obtained from the TSRI User Guide.  When you launch TSRI, help topics are an excellent source of information.  You can access TSRI by going to the control panel and select Intel Rapid Storage Technology. You can also access TSRI from low location of the taskbar.  TSRI should resemble a hard disk icon and it normally has a green check mark.  By default, TSRI is defined as delayed start, so don't expect to see active immediately.

  1. Launch the IRST while under Windows
  2. Click Help
  3. Click on troubleshooting
  4. Click on gradient volumes and follow the recommendations. Scroll to RAID 1.

• Need help updated the VMX file on several Virtual Machine

  All,

  Can anyone help with a problem I'm having?  Here is a brief explanation of what is happening and what we need to solve.

  Recently we found out that we need to add a line in the file VMX of several virtual machines.  In the past, I was able to do this, but would have cold start the virtual machine for the changes to take effect.  Starts cold won't be a problem, because we can program it.

  However, no one knows a way to add this line in the file VMX virtual machines in a cluster.

  Here's the line I need added:

  Devices.hotplug = "false".

  Here is a script that was used earlier (esx 3.0 days) to keep the VM tools updated on reboot.  At this point, if the virtual machine has been turned on, this change could not do through the UI.  However, this script worked to update the .vmx file and then we have cold reboots for the changes to take effect.

  Get-viserver - < Server > - < user > - < password >

  $viview = get-Cluster-name NOMCLUSTER | Get - VM | foreach-object {get-view ($_.ID)}
  $viview | {foreach-object
  $vmConfigSpec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools = new-Object VMware.Vim.ToolsConfigInfo
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterPowerOn = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.afterResume = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestStandby = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.beforeGuestShutdown = 'True '.
  $vmConfigSpec.Tools.ToolsUpgradePolicy = "UpgradeAtPowerCycle".
  $_. ReconfigVM ($vmConfigSpec)
  }

  The exact script can be found in Disable HotPlug

• Help with VM monitoring parameter at the virtual machine level

  Hi, I'm new to powershell and got the script (from http://damiankarlson.com/2011/01/13/managing-vmware-has-vm-monitoring-powercli/ thanks Damian Karlson) that will allow me to set the "VM Monitoring" setting for each virtual computer in a cluster to 'Disabled' below State. This is necessary to allow a 'monitoring VM and application' at the highest level and keep only selective VMs allowed for surveillance. When I run this script, it is applied VM1. When I try to do this for another virtual machine with a virtual machine name change (VM2), it get error "specified parameter was not correct" in the tasks of vCenter. Not sure whats wrong, any help is appreciated.

  Hello, vSphereUser7-

  I've seen your follow-up to your thread on this topic at http://communities.vmware.com/message/1859219#1859219.  Between your answer and your question you mention in this thread, I came to realize what seems to be the problem for you.  I have re-written a code in the other thread, based on that blog DKarlson on and commented on why you may receive this error in the vSphere client.  See this thread for more info on what is happening here.

• Need help with replacement tips Sony hybrid

  Hey all,.

  Please first post here, so I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong section. This month I ordered the spare Atria hybrid Sony EPEX10A/BLK on Amazon.com. While he was trying to get a great tip on my Sennheiser CX500s, broken the coloured part. Now, I have only a great tip, which is currently normal the CX500 very well. I really need another great tip, and I don't know what to do. I thought that the best option would be to contact the Sony Support and ask for a replacement (I guess my warranty is still in effect, dunno anything), but I don't know how. I went on this website (http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/contact-land.pl) and support selected, and since I could not find my product in the list, I typed in what I thought was the model number, and it came with no result. I have no idea where the model number is on the packaging (which I still have).

  Can someone please help me to get a replacement? Other than the broken tip, what are the best advice I've had , and I would really like to continue to use.

  Thanks for the help!

  Contact Sony parts and accessories - they have a different number of Support technique Sony and should be able to find the right part for you - details on the following link:

  Hey Buddy

  You have a machine with the ATI graphics card. Am I wrong?
  If Yes, then the Chipset driver is ALREADY included in the ATI graphics driver that is available on the European driver Toshiba page!

  The order of installation displays the instructions step by step for all THE portable Satellite A200 PSAE6E but the fact is that devices were equipped with different material parts and that's why some single drivers do not appear or are not available.

  Once again; Utility/driver chipset is available/included in the ATI graphics driver

  Good bye

  Hello

  That s just to change the BIOS settings in the BIOS!
  I think that the BIOS settings are placed in the last page of the BIOS (3).

  Try setting the 1RAID-0 on the first HARD disk and the 2RAID-0 the second HARD disk.

  It worked well on my laptop.

  By the way; information on the RAID configuration found in the user manual.

  Have a nice day ;)

• Old laptop - Pro 490 - need help with the graphics driver for Win 98

  I downloaded the display drivers, but these seem to be the same ones that Windows 98 is installed but the screen is not 'full' but just a window in the middle of the screen.

  I have also 1 device that does not have a pilot.

  Is someone can you please tell me where I can get a set of drivers for the laptop? Win98SE drivers seem to be a little short on the toshiba web site (unless I'm blind)

  Otherwise I'll have to use the recovery CD to install windows 95 and then upgrade to windows 98... do not look forward to that.

  Any help greatly appreciated

  Hello

  In my view, the drivers for Win98 and Win 98SE are the same.
  But this unit is very old and Toshiba doesn't conceive these drivers more.
  I suggest to look on the sites of manufacturers of equipment. Maybe you'll find some drivers for Win98
