OVFTool - nodisks still creates the file .ovf with the disc information

Hi all

I use ovftool with the option - noDisks, but it still seems to be the information of the disc in the file .ovf (see attachments).

I am trying to import the virtual appliance on a server ESXI 3.5 update 2 using VM Converter 4.0.1.

When I try and import the virtual appliance, I get the following error:

Failed: Could not download the OVF file ' http: / / xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/vm_ovf_backups/esxi-test-disk1.vmdk "."

I thought that the option - noDisks would leave on any information relating to the disks - I'm wrong?

Best regards, Michael

Hi Michael,

You specify the data store by using the option - data store (or abbreviation - ds). Try ovftool - datastore = ESXi-vmdk-1 /esxi - test.ovf vi://111.111.111.111/ instead.

  • VDDK v1.2 is unable to create the disc on the other file system

    I work on one file system other than NTFS for Windows and should be able to create a virtual drive it.

    Using the new v1.2 VDDK, I try the following command:

    VMware-vdiskmanager - c - a free - 0 TS 70 GB
    .pdvfs\myserver\2\CarlData\CarlData.VMDK

    It fails with the error:

    Unable to create the disc: the file is too large for the filesystem (0xc00000015).

    With the help of the utility even 1.1 VDDK works very well.

    If I map the 'share' to a drive letter, the next command in the V1.2 works too well:

    VMware-vdiskmanager - c - a free - 0 TS 70 GB Q:\2\CarlData\CarlData.vmdk

    I know from painful experience last year that the error "the file is too big" is pretty generic, and generally means vixdisklib think that the target file system is not NTFS.  I changed my driver year last to convince vixdisklib v1.1 it was OK to create a large virtual drive here.  "I also remember that the library is the distinction between a target name starting by".
    "compared to the other with a drive letter.  "Is there something I can do to make the v1.2 to accept the"
    .pdvfs' form of file name?

    I see a sensitive case named streams, acl persistent search for support as defining NTFS for this audit. Can you confirm if you have these?

  • Unable to create the disc of recovery on my Equium P300-19O

    I am unable to create a recovery disk. I get an error code: 020150-20-00000000 and the F:106557xsp4.swm file missing message. When you create the disc 1. Two disk does not work either.

    I think it's important to do these recovery disks, but I have already lost 5 discs already. Is there any help that anyone can give.

    The hidden restore partition has been deleted or changed?

    Perhaps the hidden partition was damaged because of a loss of power or something.

  • DVD-R discs play only on internal burner/reader of DVD that was used to create the disc?

    Hello

    This is the DVD-R that I created will not play on my Player DVD TV Philips standard or any other DVD player other than the one used to create the floppy disks?  I tried to lower the record speed of Windows DVD Maker, Cyberlink Power Director, and Nero 11 and all have the same issue?  I can only read my disks on HP laptop DVD drive?  The discs I used are:

    Philips DVD - R 4.7 GB 1-16 X
    Memorex DVD - R 4.7 GB 16 X

    My old Windows XP machine has no problems burning these discs and they play back well on Player DVD TV Philips and all players with my friends.

    This problem is driving me crazy! This is a 1 year HP Pavilion dv9000 with built in DVD/Blue Ray recorder. It runs 64-bit Vista Home Premium computer. All Windows updates are made and there are zero viruses and malware.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/burn-a-CD-or-DVD

    Read the info above about the correct format to burn in.

    Burn a disc using the ISO image format

    Choose the size of the ISO image when you need a highly compatible disc that will play in computers with an older version of Windows or in devices such as CD and DVD players that can play video files and music digital. For more information about choosing a disc format, see which CD or DVD format should I use?

    See you soon.

  • A way to get the Photoshop CS3 'upgrade edition' of failed hard drive? I still have the discs.

    I've been using Photoshop CS3 since it was released originally, and it is quite satisfactory for my needs. However, my system drive crashed recently, and although I have the installation disc to reinstall, the version I have is an 'upgrade' which is based on the presence of a previous version. I don't have the CD to install the previous version, wonder if anyone has any suggestions on how to get my reinstalled Photoshop. I can't really afford to buy the service cloud, and they seem to no longer support older versions.

    You must either o have the old version installed or its serial number.  Without any of them there not that you can do without the assistance of Adobe help - who will tell you that they do not support their older products.

  • Envy of HP dv7 Notebook: failed to create the recovery disk.

    I have a HP ENVY Notebook dv7. When the computer was new, I tried to make a record of retrieving the value. When finished, I would check out (DVD - R) discs, I would get a message saying that disks has not written correctly. I tried three different packs records, always the same. Called HP Support and they went through the process with me, always the same failure. I was told not to worry if I still have the discs because of an accident, they would send them to me for free because they have a record. Now, I'll use this computer mostly on the internet and think I should have just in case records. Called HP and was not said no record, no free drives and it will cost a lot to make them help the discs. Is it possible to make records or put the info on a hard drive? I don't know if the computer thinks that I made a copy or not, because the copies, I thought I was doing were defective.

  • How to create the time dimension?

    Hi friends...
    I'm working on OBIEE since the last 2 months.
    I created a few reports; I don't have the time dimensions in the layer of MDB.

    Now, I need to give a few zoom feature in my reports. Almost all of the reports have the time factor.
    As year, month, and day. can I still create the time dimension based on the exercise.
    (1) what is - that I think give the zoom feature in the reports.
    (2) can we have multiple time dimensions in the MDB layer?


    Thank you very much in advance.

    Toony,

    You can create a time dimension based on the fiscal year, and you can have many dimensions of time within a business model. There is a lot of documentation, of messages and articles about dimensions. If you haven't already done so, check out page 126 of the Server Management Guide and read this article. That should at least help you get started on building your time dimension.
