provisioned disk space question

Hi all

Watch provisioned disk space more space than assigned (IE his double size Watch)

Maybe some rest then.

Try to group disks/snapshots:

    I get a message that I am under very low space on the preload C drive.  I then try to remove a program to create a space and I get a message that says: there is not enough disk space to remove a program.  What should do?

    jeckhart1,

    remove some files from your hard drive which should solve this problem.

    You can only increase a score when there is free disk space adjacent to that partition. In your case, you must use a partitioning tool to move the drive H: and then increase the C; drive. I usually use the gParted live CD / ISO in such cases.

  • Portable disk space question

    Hello:

    I chose a 180 GB SSD but now my ssd only showed about 98.9 GB. Even if I count the recovery disc, it is still less than 120 GB. Where is my another 60 GB?

    Look at this wiki page:
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.

    at the end of this page, you will find the link to the comparison of the Smart tools. AIDA is sufficient. Or on Sourceforge or HWiNFO SmartMonTools. Some SSD vendors also provide the Smart tools followed their drives, Intel is an example.

    Again, what is the model of player and the p/n? This is a maximum chance (factory) capacity is 120... 128 gb?

    I know there is a thread that includes a way to calculate it, but I was wondering if a method somewhere under the values of get-datastore already had these in there.  I guess it is more efficient to use something that exists rather than calculate it in a function in my script.

    As far as I know, the value is not readily available, you will need to calculate.

    That's what the vSphere client does so

  • Question about thin provisioned disks

    I did some searching but can't find specific answers, I need and I apologize in advance if these questions are public knowledge. I know also my setup is very small compared to most houses VMWare normally using these forums, but we are moving slowly in the 2nd Decade of the 21st century (or try).

    I have a new install ESXi 5 and move during one ESX3 host that has about a dozen of VMs on it.  I recently built vCenter host servers and my future view connection server.  I'm kind to vCenter again as my previous installation of ESX 3 was a single server and us were not investing in the vCenter at the time option (missed a lot of features and ease of upgrade during this transition, but 20/20 declining).  I'm a little green in using vCenter so take pitty on my ignorance.

    It's more time than I wanted to and I just want to know the best way to change these 2 servers (recently built and configured systems Win 2008 R2) to thin provisioned disks.  I need to keep all the storage space I can and beyond the obvious problem of being able to provide more space than you physically, I have no problem to do so (in addition to get them changed).  If there are negatives I'm missing, please report them to me.  The possiblities that I see are:

    The clone and thin provision then delete the originals.

    Use the stand-alone converter on them (from above).

    Completely rebuild thin provisioned with disks.

    If someone can give me a quick list of possible problems and pitfalls for these opportunities or to get to a better suggestion, please do so and thanks in advance.

    Manual of Clark

    PRIMOS Inc.

    Since you have storage vMotion the clone or standalone VMware converter are both viable options.   Not sure about the disadvantages of these options.

    You didn't say what kind of server it is, but I'm always careful about the cloning of the domain controllers.   Without the option for storage vmotion I rebuild a DC from scratch.

  • Question on the available disk space on the Satellite Z930

    I'm new on this Yes, you can not shoot me down if this is a stupid question. I just bought a new ultrabook Z930. Storage space announced was 125 GB (drive C is only show 100 GB available). Only, I installed MS Office Standard 2007, Norton anti virus and printer drivers.

    However, I now only 65GB of disk space, and I do not think that these applications take 35 GB. I removed the shadow at all.
    Can someone give me some advice please?

    Unfortunately we can not see info exact drive HARD, but maybe you saw something wrong.
    Check please Disk management in the computer management options and you can see all the information base on the HARD disk and each partition of HARD drive.

    I can imagine that this 35 GB is total data backed up on some partition that contains the operating system and all the stuff pre-installed.

  • OnThick space provisioned disks?

    I have configured my VM thick, but most of them show space put into service between 20% and 60% more than the space used. The data store is 200 GB pledged.  My understanding is that space put into service comes into play with thin provisioned disks, not thick. Can someone explain to me why it took so much space in service?  We are on the latest version of VMware.

    Thank you!

    Take it back storage provisioned the VMDK for the disk, the file etc vswap isn't just the disc.

    For example, if we have a virtual machine with a hard disk of 4 GB space of the thick put in service and windows 2008 R2 with 4 GB of RAM then the disc put into service will be around 8,11 GB

    Used storage will show 4.00 GB as this is the file to disk. The rest of the space put into service is mainly the vswap 4 GB file.

    Start the virtual machine and changes in storage provisioned to 8.05 as does the storage used such that it created vswap files.

    It off again and changes in storage provisioned to 8.12 GB and used (s) back up to 4 GB

    Set size in service has increased to 100% not sure de.01 why but could be the journal file, or something.

    But your space is higher than the discs it's file of vswap RAM the virtual machine it is either in the total of 20 to 60%.

    FYI, changing limits or action does not affect the space put into service, because it is for physical memory, not the size of the file vswap.

    The only way to reduce the space put into service is either to reduce hard drive size VMDK or reduce RAM assigned to the virtual machine.

    fall virtual machine up to 2 GB and put into service space is now 6.05 when the virtual machine is running.

  • Script to determine disk space, recorded by a provisioning

    Hello..

    I was wondering if anyone had a script that would allow me to pull up a list of virtual machines, their space set aside (as a #, with no Go after him) and their space used (as a #, no Go after him). ID then take advantage of these data in excel, add it to this and see how much disk space we saved on our SAN by using a provisioning.

    Does anyone have an idea?  I think a script to do something like that could be very useful for many people who are able to return to management and show how much $ they recorded in SAN disk using this "new"

    Thank you!

    The only way I could get the 'Division by zero' error was when I did one or more of the stores of data not available.

    The following script excludes the unavailable datatsores

    $report = @()
    $vms = Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine
    foreach($vm in $vms){
         foreach($perDS in $vm.Storage.PerDatastoreUsage){
              if($perDS -ne $null){
                   $row = "" | Select VMname, DSname, ThinProvisioned, ThinUsed, SavedPerc
                   $row.VMname = $vm.Name
                   $row.DSname = (Get-View -Id $perDS.Datastore).Name
                   $row.ThinProvisioned = "{0:f2}" -f (($perDS.Committed + $perDS.Uncommitted) / 1GB)
                   $row.ThinUsed = "{0:f2}" -f ($perDS.Committed / 1GB)
                   $row.SavedPerc = "{0:f0}" -f ($perDS.Uncommitted / ($perDS.Committed + $perDS.Uncommitted) * 100)

  • Is there a way to see the disk space actually used against provisioned size 3.5?

    Hi people,

    I don't know that this has probably developed.

    I need to find the amount of real disk space is used by the virtual machine rather than its set size in service.  I make this point to the direction for the upgrade to Vsphere 4 by using a provisioning.

    Y at - it a script/app that could do it quite easily.

    Kind regards

    Rick

    RVTools is an excellent tool for ESX Admin to have and he has a lot of features, you can enjoy and Details of the data store is also part of it.  Check out great tools free http://www.robware.net/

  • Question of partition: partition and narrower than the disk space

    Hi, I have a big problem with OS X El Capitan 10.11.3.

    I used to have a Windows partition with bootcamp which I deleted via bootcamp, but it crashed.

    I lost all my partitions and even os x. I have therefore started in recovery mode and launched disk utility, I could not create a partition OS X 90Go on my 120 GB SSD, and I installed OS X on it. Once installed, I have tried to maximize the size of the partition in disk utility to the actual size of the SSD, but it wouldn't work. Worse still, it actually shows my OS X partition a 60 GB instead of 90... (we also say that change log has not been activated, I allowed him but nothing happened)

    How can I make my OS X partition as big as my SSD?

    Here are some pictures of the utility disc and occupied disk space.

    Try to launch the Boot Camp again to see if it will delete the partition. It acts like it doesn't have.

  • Question: How can I change disk space for partitioned disks?

    I'm having a problem using top too much disk space on my (vista) C drive on my satellite L500, now that I've filled with iTunes music files. I want to use a part of the E drive to 'Add' on the C drive space. Is this possible?

    Also, could I just use the E-drive to add anyway, if I told iTunes to look for a few songs and C E for others? E has special properties like the recovery partition that can complicate things?

    Thanks if anyone can help!

    Hello

    1 delete all the files and unnecessary programs from the disk: C to the freed space.
    2. move all the movies, photos, music on the disk E;
    3. If you use the Download Manager to download files, you can change the path where to save the downloaded files in your local case: E

    You can change the size of the partition in administrative tools in Control Panel. However, I prefer to use a partition manager paragon to resize partitions on my computers. Before add/create partitions, make sure that you have made a recovery disk.

  • Running out of disk space HARD - Question on the Windows folder size

    Hello! I am troubleshooting my HARD drive space. I have a 'C' HDD 16 GB with nearly 0 MB space left (fluctuates probably due to created restore points).

    In any case, I discovered that my Windows folder contains about 7.7 GB of files. (I have Win XP Home Ed, 2002, SP3 installed - with MANY updates that have been installed over the years) 7.7 GB seems a lot.  Random check on the web (not sure how reliable replica is) I see less than 2 GB is what should be there.

    I don't think that there are many 'other' stuff in there, certainly nothing that I placed there. is there a way to check / clean this folder?

    Please do not suggest to re - install Windows as the solution, since at that time, I will buy another computer first.  then put in shape this one. It is clocked at 2.66 GHz Intel Pentium, so not ready to junk food she still.

    Thanks for your suggestions. Best regards, Frank V

    Your list of the most fragmented files that partially reveals the magnitude of your problem. Note that the list does not display very large files that have less than 797 fragments. There are also many small and medium-sizes of the files fragmented with less than 797 fragments. A notable omission in your list, this is the System Volume Information folder. I can't believe that it is not fragmented, she must be on this part of the list is not displayed.

    To defragment by using with Windows XP Disk Defragmenter, you need a bit less 15%. Defraggler is my favorite Defragmenter, but I doubt that it will succeed on your C partition. With Defraggler you can defragment single files, except some files, including those related to safety programs. You must try to reach 20% of free disk space.

    Your swap file is severely fragmented and illustrated perfectly why the possibility of using the "let Windows manage" is not the best solution if you want the better system performance. Minimum setting fixed maximum = pagefile avoids what you see on your system. Unfortunately with a populated partition, it is very difficult if not impossible to resolve completely without having to reinstall the operating system. However, trying to mitigate the impact of what you see, it's something to watch much later in the restoration, the functioning of your computer.

    My previous to Outlook Express references were specifically directed against this program. Outlook is a totally different program and solutions for Outlook Express do not apply to Outlook.

    You cannot compact Outlook pst files and archives, except those who created versions of Outlook prior to Outlook 2003. You can empty deleted item folder and you must first check that it is empty. I would then back up your Outlook Archives on an external drive or flash before attempting to move the locations of archive. Once you have moved the archive folders successfully I would then move messages from your current folders to the archive folders. If you archive the current materials first of all you have more to lose if the process of change the default location of the folder goes awry. Then, you can archive your current messages and change the default location of the current file. You can move messages current return from archives as a last step if you feel the need to do so.

    I copied a few instructions from an external source on how to change the default locations. I hope you find these useful.

    To change the location of database of Microsoft Outlook, the OUTLOOK file. PST is to be moved. In Windows XP, you can find this file in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\loginname\Local Settings\Application application\Microsoft\Outlook\ and in Windows Vista, you can find it in the C:\Users\loginname\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\ folder. After Outlook is closed, the OUTLOOK folder. PST can be moved easily using Windows Explorer by cutting (CTRL-X) and paste (CTRL-V) in the personal folder on the partition data (for example D:\loginname\Outlook). Now, the file is deleted from the original location, Outlook will present an error message because the database can not found. Accept the error message, navigate to the new location of the OUTLOOK. PST file and restart Outlook.

    ATTENTION: If automatic archiving is enabled, the ARCHIVE file. PST must be moved as well! This file can be moved to the same location as OUTLOOK. PST, following the same procedure.
