Question on the reclassification of the Version 3-5 data warehouses

Background:

We have a group of hosts running ESX 4.1 that I migrated to ESXi 5.

All our hosts are connected to a San.

All existing data stores are file system version 3.21

I want all my stores data upgrade to version 5.  I know that there is an option to convert warehouses of data version 3 to version 5, but a support technician VMWare told me that he would not have even features a new version 5 data store would.  He said that he would retain the features of version 3.

Question:

If I delete a vCenter data store (after I have migrated off the guests) and then recreate the data store by using the same logical unit number, this will be a 5 native data store or it will still retain the features of version 3 when vCenter reuses the lun?

I'd rather not have to cancel the mapping of the LUN and recreate blank those for native data warehouses 5 if possible.

When you remove the logic unit number, it will be empty.  Adding, you can format as a LUN VMFS5

    Only if you plan to use SMI - if she does not go with the maximum rates for vCenter - and you are correct to look at the number of hosts since it is the ESX hosts that communicate to the SAN not vCenter-

    These two environments may see the same LUNS / data warehouses.

    I did and it works however I want to make sure that it is an approved practice.

    You can do that normally without any problems. Even if the virtual machine is in a different datacenter inventory and there Powred-Off. You can map the logic unit number on the VI4 and add to the inventory of the VI4 another host.

    Recently, I did this practice to migrate from host with virtual machines in a different subnet to the host who knows the same setting SAN LUN in the other subnet.

  • Satellite L30-134 PSL33 - Question about the version of the BIOS and the type of DVD writer

    Hello!

    I bought a Toshiba L30-134 PSL33 the week last in Hungary. I recorded to Toshiba international warranty, so I saw that my cell was made the 19.10.2006.
    My friend bought the same laptop (Toshiba L30-134 PSL33) too (also in Hungary), two weeks ago. His machine was made on 19.12.2006.
    It's already funny, but that's not all.
    My laptop has a series number starts with X, and the machine of my friends has this starting with Z. That's ok.
    But here it is...
    I have a BIOS version of 1.3 and my friend has a BIOS version of 1.9! 0.6 gap within two months? Why?
    The other thing. I have a DVD burner called Mat * a UJ - 841 S and my friend has a LG 4082. Once again: why?
    If you are looking for Toshiba BIOS update you don't find anything! It is very interesting. There must be some updates to the BIOS, because I read here to another topis that someone has a BIOS version of 1.4. But there are 1.9 too.
    Each book was brand new when we bought.
    Any idea?
    Let me know when you bought your laptop, what BIOS version it has, and what kind of DVD player there.
    I'm wainting for the answers, because I'm really interested!

    Thank you
    Marcell

    Hey Arnaud!

    I m from Hungary, too, but I think I should speak English on this forum :) So here is my notebook, I ve bought on 24.12.06. :

    Type: L30 - 134 PSL33E
    The machine was made on: 19.12.06
    Series: starts with Z
    DVD player: LG
    BIOS version: 1.9

    You should t be nervous on the drive, the carpet * a Panasonic, and I think that s as good as LG. Why are they different? I put t know, maybe Toshiba was such at the time. In the specifications I didn't seen anything on the drive type, so I think that s not relevant. I t has not found another version of BIOS for this model, so I t understand too why and what are the differences between the versions. But if you n t have a problem with your machine, you do not need to change the BIOS. This isn't a PC, if you haven t many options to change in the BIOS.
    If you want to discuss on the laptop on the Hungarian language, I recommend the Toshiba section on www.prohardver.hu.

  • Satellite P100-221: Question about the version of the graphics driver

    Hello

    I have the Satellite P100-221 (PSPA6E-013010RU).
    There is a new update for nVidia 7900GS card driver available (8.4.0.0, 27/07/06) in the Russian section of www.toshiba.com.

    But the number is still 8.4.0.0, as it was before.
    Do you mean the driver has not been modified too much, or is it a new revision?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Satellite P100 is a very recent laptop right now and the drivers have to be to date. In this case, I think that the drivers on the Toshiba page are even similar on your laptop. The date indicates only the version on the page.

    Anyway, you should always check the numbers of versions of drivers and compare until you install it on the device.
    Maybe the drivers are preinstalled and you don't need to reinstall the same version.

  • Question to the versions that can be installed

    Hello

    I had the testversions of Lightroom 5 and Lightsroom nc6 on my computer up and running. (32-bit Windows)

    Then I bought the DVD Installation, which could not be installed.

    I definitely Don t want to have the CC version on my computer and the Version 5 can´t be purchased. Do you know if the download version of Lightroom 6 (no clouds) can be installed on a 32-bit computer? (because the Testversions were running)

    Thanks for your help!

    6 Lightroom is not designed or tested to run on a 32-bit machine, so that it is not supposed to run on it.

    I don't know how you could use it on a 32-bit machine according to the requirements, it is clearly said that he needs 64-bit computer only, see update on OS support for the next Version of Lightroom

    The last Lightroom 6/CC the two cannot run on the operating system of your machine and the older versions are no longer available for purchase.

  • Beginner question - download the version of the host and sort by host name and version

    Hello

    I'm trying to get the version of the host of my hosts in vCenter and then sort the output in a table by name and version, but I'm pretty new to powershell and I have zero programming background, so I can't understand it.

    What I got so far is the following;

    Get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} | Tri-objet fullname | format-table FullName

    You get the version of the software to all of my guests and sorting in a list of the version of the software (fullname).  However because get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} does not include the host name in its release, I can't find a way to include the hostname in my production.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    You can do something like this

    get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
    sort-object -Property Build | format-table
    

    On the Select-Object cmdlet, you can use literals hash that will allow you to run complex expressions.

    If you want the output sorted by host name, you can do

    get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
    sort-object -Property Name | format-table
    

    Or like this (which is a bit faster)

    Get-View -ViewType HostSystem | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
    sort-object -Property Build | format-table

  • Questions about the collection of personalization data.

    I am currently working on a form which is presented as an xml file using a submit button by email.  There are several things that I wonder if you can customize and if so, how?

    1. Is it possible to have the calculated time field that is included in the exported data?
    2. IF SO... Is it possible to change the date/time calculated field to calculate when the e-mail button is clicked rather than when the form is started?
    3. Is it possible to have the file by e-mail named something other than * name * _data?  Maybe something that includes the date, or another domain specified for point more precisely what form it is?
    4. Finally, is it possible when you import data to import xml data into an Excel file which already has other data collected in it?

    Responses to the foregoing would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Kayla

    Hey Kayla,

    Yes, most of it is possible.

    1: select the date/time field and go to object > tab. Liaison depending on the version of LC designer you have, you want the drop-down list of data binding to have 'Normal' or 'using the name '. This means that the value is exported to the XML file. If the drop-down list says "No data binding" or "None", the value will not be exported.

    2: the date/time field probably has the script initialization or docReady. That's fine, the date and time will be filled when the form is opened. In order to refresh the time at the time wherever the user submits the form, you must include the following line in the mouseDown event of the submit button.

    DateTimeField1.execEvent("initialize"); 
    

    This will trigger the DateTime field Initialize event and update the date / time just before submitting the form.

    3: it's tricker, the name of the XML file is set automatically to reflect the name of the file of the form. You can write the script to change the name of the file of form (and by extension the name of the XML file), however, this requires a function of trust in a separate javascript file. This JS file will have to be on all computers which would be used to access the form and to be honest not worth the (significant).

    4: adobe do a good job, if you are distributing your form via Acrobat.com. Additionally, Acrobat version 9 allows you to select the individual xml files and export them to an Excel spreadsheet (under the menu options). You can also compile returned forms by selecting the answer file and the individual xml files. I don't think that you will be able to export a new XML responses in an existing worksheet. Using Excel, you may be able to import the new XML into the existing file. If all else fails, I export the new xml to spreadsheet files, this open in Excel and copy the data back. Open the existing worksheet, and then copy the data back at the end of the table.

    Hope that helps,

    Niall

  • Question about the impact of a data file missing

    Oracle Version: 10 gr 2


    If a data file (not a data file belonging to the tablespace SYSTEM or any other data file associated with Oracle Internals) is lost, I can bring the database up somehow?

    Keita,
    What happens if I don't have a backup of the data file that is lost?

    OK understood

    If you do not have a backup of your database and that you have lost a data file, then you must re - create control file (which will contain the names of data inside files) without indicating lost data file name

    You must create the controlfile creation script and remove the line of lost data file name and create a controlfile. After that, you should be able to open your database successfully

  • What are the best solutions for data warehouse configuration in 10 gr 2

    I need help on solutions to provide my client for the upgrade of the data warehouse.

    Current configuration: database Oracle 9.2.0.8. This database contains the data warehouse and a LOBs more on the same host. The sizes are respectively 6 terabyte (3 years retention policy + current year) and 1 terabyte. The ETL tool and BO Reporting tools are also hosted on the same host. The current configuration is really poor.

    Customer cannot go for a major architectural or configuration to its environment changes existing now due to some constraints.

    However, they agreed to separate the databases on separate hosts of ETL tools and objects BO. We also plan to upgrade the database to 10 g 2 to achieve stability, better performance and overcome the current headache.
    We cannot upgrade the database 11g as the BO is a 6.5 version that is not compatible with Oracle 11 g. And the customer cannot afford to spend anything else than the database.

    So, my role is very essential in providing a perfect solution for better performance and take a migration successful Oracle from a host database to another (same platform and OS) in addition to the upgrade.

    I got to thinking now of the following:

    Move the database and Oracle mart for separating the host.
    The host will be the same platform, i.e. HP Superdome with 32-bit HP - UX operating system (we are unable to change to 64-bit as ETL tool does not support)
    Install the new Oracle 10 g on the new host database and move the data to it.
    Discover all the new features of 10gr 2 in order to data warehouse, i.e., introduction of Clause SQL TYPE, Parallel processing, partitioning, Data Pump, SPA to study the pre and post migration.
    Also at RAC to provide more better solution than our main motivation is to show an extraordinary performance improvement.
    I need your help to prepare a good roadmap for my assignment. Please suggest.

    Thank you

    Tapan

    Two major changes since the 9i to 10g which will impact performance are
    a. changes in the default values when executing GATHER_ % _STATS
    b. change in the behavior of the optimizer

    Oracle has published several white papers on them.

    Since 10g is no longer in the Premier Support, you'll have some trouble connecting SRs with Oracle Support - they will continue to ask you to use 11 g.

    The host will be the same platform, i.e. HP Superdome

    Why do you need export if you do not change the platforms? You could install 9.2.0.8 on the new server, the database clone and then level to 10 gr 2 / 11 GR 2.

  • find the total size of the VM on specific data warehouses

    Hello

    PowerCLI guru, I'm not...

    I'm just using the following to get the total size of the virtual machine.

    Get-vmhost < host name, host name >. get - vm | Select-Object Name, UsedSpaceGB

    The problem is some of these VMS are on 15 k drive and some are over 10 k drive, is there a way to add the data store name each virtual machine is located at the exit. Seeing the data store name that I can know easily what typre of disc it is average.

    Currently, she is just out

    vmname size

    -----------        ------

  • In need of a script to the inventory of the virtual computer on data warehouses

    I analyzed vCheck by www.virtu-al.net. Great script and I can learn a lot of information that I need. However, I am a newbie to script and is looking to add a piece that I need inventory of data warehouses.

    That's what I need:

    I need an inventory of VMS on each cluster and have it store data that they are on a report. It would happen every night and I would be delighted if it had exported to a html file which can be downloaded to an internal wiki. I love the output html of the vCheck tool and would like to add this piece to the tool, so that it is brought to the same html file.

    Does anyone know if there is a script that will help me to do?

    Thank you!

    No problem, happy, I can help you

    This will include the ESXi host.

    To sort the list, we have everything first to grasp objects in an array and then sort.

    Hello

    I have 3 questions about equipment and tools of VM version, can someone help? Thank you in advance.

    2. review I have a VM in vSphere 6.0 platform with version 11 of hardware and the latest Tools (cam with ESXi 6.0 U2) VM, I can export to an EGG file, then import it on vSphere 5.1 platform? If can, what version of the target material is VM?

    3. can you vmtools high version with lower vSphere platform? For example, I have a virtual machine with version 11 of material and tools the latest VM (ESXi 6 U2), later I move the 5.1 ESXi virtual computer, should I go down the vmware tools? Is there a compatibility issue?

    Hello

    1. Yes, if you unzip the eggs and open the FVO in an editor you see:

    Family of virtual hardware

    0

    2. you can not. Vmware 11 material is not supported by 5.1.

    3 didn't cause you cannot import vmware 11 and 5.1. Works may be more high vmtools as long as you keep the material support for 5.1 version.
