Operation failed because the file already exists

Hello

I have a quick question and I don't know how to fix it.

I used VMWare vCenter to migrate and existing virtual machine, he got stuck and failed.

I went to Virtual Infrastructure delete the virtual machine but for some reason still exist some files and I see the files allocated for this purpose.

I tried to migrate it again and I get the following error

Operation failed because the file already exists

Cannot create disk virtual /vmfs/volues/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/FreeBSD/FreeBSD.vmdk

How can I manually delete this file (s)?

Thank you

Paulo

Is it possible that I can manually delete these files?

One way is using the data store browser (right click on the data store and select Browse).

WARNING: it is not an undelete function

  • Clone and snapshot operation failed because the file already exists

    I read the article "http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1007193.

    If the delta is named < diskname > - 0000xx - delta.vmdk, create an empty file named < diskname > - 0000xx.vmdk.

    Does anyone can say why is

    Case of inoticed something vmdk name is server01.vmdk (DRIVE C), SERVER01_1.VMDK (drive D). Now what I saw in the vm data store

    SERVER01.VMDK (DRIVE C), SERVER01_1.VMDK became something else

    Why it happened,

    How can I know when this gap that happened by creating snapshots?

    Timestamps of files, problems with snapshots is past may, 25 and 26.

    As I mentioned before, move ' _APLSV-000002 - delta.vmdk "in the directory"backup"or create a dummy"_APLSV - 000002.vmdk"(content should not serious). This will allow you to create a new snapshot to activate the button 'clear all '. It should still work with the virtual machine, so there is no need for the time stop.

    If deletion and creation of the snapshot has been good, then, the snapshot of the first and the second disc should be _x-000005

    Yes, usually the numbers for different drives are the same. However, in reality no matter.

    You have configured your control point and logs on the same filesystem / disk:

    Data store = * / ttcache1/ttcache1
    LogDir = * / ttcache1/newspapers

    It's a bad idea in any case (see previous posts of Chris Jenkins), but the error is simply to say that you have run out of disk space on the drive containing the transaction logs. A k /ttcache1 FD must confirm. I guess that your transaction logs is not purged, perhaps a way to bookmark in newspapers is the cause of their outfit. If you are able to connect to the data with ttIsql store, run the command 'ttlogholds of appeal' to see a list of existing bookmarks.

  • Operation failed on the file hard :( How to fix?

    I just cloned a Windows 10 VM in Vmware Workstation Pro12.0.0 build-2985596.  The VM source worked very well.

    When I try to start the clone I get the message:

    Operation failed on the file "C:\Users\username\Documents\Virtual Machines\Windows 10 Insider\Windows 10 x 64 - cl1 - s007.vmdk.

    Dave

    Looks like it was the real problem of IO - chkdsk/s and reclone fixed it.

  • Operation failed on the file ' / dev/rdisk0s3 ".

    I get the following error message when I tried to run Fusion for a few days.

    Operation failed on the file ' / dev/rdisk0s3 ".

    The locks on the virtual machine to the top / freezes when it appears.

    I gives me the option to continue, cancel or retry.

    The only practical option is abandoned as the virtual machine remains locked/frozen.

    Could not find anything in the knowledge base.

    I'm under Fusion 3.1 on Snow Leopard.  The virtual machine runs Windows 7 Pro (32 bit) from the Boot Camp partition.

    Until recent days, I've been a happy user with no hiccups for a few years.

    Any wisdom or guidance would be much appreciated!

  • Operation failed on the file "*.vmdk.

    I'm relatively new to VMWare, but have been using it to access my admin area machine now for a few months with no problems.

    Earlier this week, we had some electrical problems, and since then I get this error.

    The machine can stay here without problems if I do nothing, but once I have work for a few minutes the error rears its head.

    Any help would be great, thanks!

  • Workbench Adobe to record errors: assets already exists / file already exists

    Workbench from Adobe for the payment of the my_server gives errors: "Could not create the asset because the asset already exists ' and/or 'file already exists in the Bank with this name.  How is - a workaround?

    This seems to happen especially when I change the user/workbench configuration connection / "mode" etc.

    If worst comes to worst:

    Save relevant directories to the path of the directory to completely separate windows backup.

    Delete all subfolders of workbench LC (all below the 1.0 Roadmap).

    Restore the backup path directories.

    It ALWAYS seems to work.

  • Files already exist when reconnecting probably missing files

    I'm fighting to clean up hundreds of files in my database of the PSE Organizer.

    Whenever I launch reconnect it all the command (or any other command that requires a reconnection first), PSE locates a large group of likely the missing files. Dialogue to "Reconnect missing files" of the PSE shows me the former location of the files. I navigate to this place and find files always there. I then select the file and press on reconnect. Unfortunately, then I get an error that says: "the file already exists in the catalog. This clears the problem of file missing for the moment. However, when I run another missing file check, he'll still find these same files. I tried to plug back them several times but PSE continues to tell me that they must be reconnected but still know where the files are located.

    I have already run a database repair (no not found errors).

    I also ran an optimization of database without problem.

    Some system information:

    • Win7 Home Premium Service Pack 1
    • Dell XPS computer i7
    • 6 GB of RAM. > 350 GB of free space on hard drive
    • PSE 12... but also had the same problem on PES 11. I've updated hoping that the problem would be solved. It wasn't.

    Thanks for any help to eliminate this problem for me.

    -Bruce

    I solved my problem... even if I don't know what caused it or why Adobe program didn't fix for me.

    The "missing" entries that have been highlighted were all the duplicate entries. Adobe will not allow a duplicate in the same physical file entry. I deleted all of the offending entries and it cleared my problem. I hope this solution helps others.

  • "cannot complete the operation because the file or folder already exists.

    Hi all

    Just spent in ghettovcbg2 and I must say it is indeed very nice.

    Just a small question though.

    It's not like it is possible to do multiple backups per day?

    I get the error "cannot complete the operation because the file or folder already exists.

    (1) is it only possible to make 1 backup per VM a day?

    (2) can I save to NFS I don't store files in the ESX Server data store?

    It should work automatically, this is more than a warning. You should be able to run more than one backup per day? If that is not the case, please read the FAQ here - http://communities.vmware.com/groups/ghettovcbg2 and then to provide me with the details requested.

    Hi Robrw,

    1. when exactly you receive this error?

    2. don't you make changes to the computer before this problem?

    You can try to rename the catroot2 folder and check if it helps.

    Step 1:

    a. Click Start and in run type C:\windows\system32 and click ok

    b. find the Catroot2 folder. Right-click on Catroot2 and rename it to Catroot2.old

    If you are not able to do the normal mode, try to start in safe mode and rename

    Check out the link for more information on starting your computer in SafeMode below:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Step 2:

    If you are unable to access the catroot2 folder, and then try to change the permissions on the files and check if it helps.

    See the following article:

    How to capture a file or a folder in Windows XP

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308421

    Step 3:

    You can also try to temporarily disable third-party security software and firewalls and check what is happening.

    Note: Activate the security software after the resolution of the problem.

    Hope this information is useful.
