RDM and NTFS permissions

Hey guys. Quick question about the RDM and NTFS permissions. I have a server of physical file with a 1 TB lun presented to her. I need to convert this machine to a virtual machine. I know I can set the lun existing to the virtual machine as RDM (virtual) and retain the benefits that ESX provides, that is to say, vMotion. I tested and it works fine. However, I have 2 questions about this configuration:

  1. Actions/NTFS permissions will be still intact after I have present the lun ROW for the operating system called? Man, I sure hope that if. This test was not so easy. Anyone can check it by experience?

  2. Any way to hide the lun ROW of the Wizard "add storage? When present you a lun to a host ESX group and use as RDM, it still shows upwards in the wizard when I try to add storage. Now, I know that I can keep track of the ID lun that prevent me from potentially selecting and formatting as VMFS... but my co-workers my not be aware. My point is, I wouldn't see it kill himself accidentally. Am I the only person annoyed with this?

Any help is most appreciated, as always. Thank you.

Yes

  1. Any way to hide the lun ROW of the Wizard "add storage? When present you a lun to a host ESX group and use as RDM, it still shows upwards in the wizard when I try to add storage. Now, I know that I can keep track of the ID lun that prevent me from potentially selecting and formatting as VMFS... but my co-workers my not be aware. My point is, I wouldn't see it kill himself accidentally. Am I the only person annoyed with this?

If logic unit number is defined as a ROW, add storage won't be able to use it, or even see. It does not to my RDM.

  • ColdFusion does not take into account the NTFS permissions

    I have seen some older posts who have applied this same question, but there is no resolution in the thread.  I posted on these threads asking if they have found a solution, however thought I would question myself and I hope someone has a fix/work around.

    CF10, W2008R2, IIS 7.5. With the help of a group with NTFS permissions to restrict access to pages.  Anyone can view the page if set a user name and password in the Windows Security window, click ok and immediately prompt again, click Cancel and you can see the content of the page.  Tested with an html page and html page is blocked properly.  It is my understanding that IIS passes control to cf, cf the cfm page.

    Since it comes to IIS 7.5, the checkbox to check if the file exists that worked in IIS6 it is not any longer, it is now under mappings.  I saw in a thread dscussion about editing a generic character mapping, but it is vague and did not have the parameters that I need to solve this problem, or I didn't get based on what I see on our server.  I put the .cfmHandler in 'file', and that did not work. I have a generic handler in the name column, but there are * in the path column, if it was not clear what's really magical generic mapping, I'm looking for.

    I can't believe this problem exists since IIS7, and there is no clear guidance on the subject. Someone must have thought of it... without going through NTFS permissions and not being is not able to restrict access to a group are not a small question, in my opinion anyway. I've looked everywhere, I hope that someone here knows what is the magic answer...

    Thank you!

  • Verify and repair permissions, El Capitan.

    Anyone know if the following commands will check and fix permissions of files if the SIP is activated? Say / applications. It is displayed in several places on the web.

    sudo/usr/libexec/repair_packages - check - standard-pkgs /.

    sudo/usr/libexec/repair_packages - repair - standard-pkgs /.

    He could repair the permissions of the files a few OS X which are not protected by SIP. But it would be a waste of time. It is best to describe the problem, if you have one, as long as detail as much information as possible, rather than saying what you think is the cause or the way you think it should be resolved.

  • State of the unknown connection, DPS and missing permissions to Trustedinstaller

    Unknown connection status,
    DPS and
    missing permissions to Trustedinstaller

    Hi, I have a problem that my computer cannot connect to the internet.

    A bit strange, because when I opened the dialog box to connect to the network, I am told that the computer is already connected to full speed.

    But warns the network icon in the status bar "unknown connection status. The dependency service or group was able to start. »

    And when I open the Connection Wizard to the internet there is a message "The wizard cannot continue" and the following details of tecknical (there is a version in French):

    "The component GUID: {7071ECA3-663B-4BC1-A1FA-B97F3B917C55}.
    The component file: [C:\Windows\system32\connect.dll]
    Error: (0x800706BA) .

    Additional info:
    Impossible to detect an Internet connection.

    This frustrating experience came from the past months. I was busy at the time tried several different antivirus programs, one after the other. I uninstalled this antivirus after trying for a month, then continued to install the following, just to see if it was the ultimate antivirus I want really to buy and use. Then, when I installed the following antivirus, I was told that it was not necessary for me to first uninstall the old antivirus. The new installation of the antivirus program could take care of this.  Then I went to install Kaspersky Anti-virus, and after that, I tried Bitdefender, under the presumption that the installer will take care of uninstalling the old antivirus.

    I don't know if this actually produced some kind of conflict, or if it's just my imagination, but it is somewhere at this point that the problem started. Maybe something happened in the registry?

    1. unfortunately I have no point of restoring a useful, probably because I had not booked enough space on my system.

    2. I tried the command
    Ping www.google.com
    cmd.exe as administrator, but no, he had no contact with the internet.

    3. I tried the ipconfig command and got two IP addresses correctly as a response, other media have been disconnected.

    4. I also tried the commands
    netsh winsock reset catalog
    netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
    netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log
    and told him after that to restart the computer, but it did not help.

    5. of course, the first thing I did to try to get on the internet was trying to diagnose and fix, but it is still to this day always says "Network Diagnostics cannot run because the Diagnostics Policy Service is not running" I then have the option to open the Service Control Manager to manually start the diagnostic policy Service. But when I try to do it gets stuck and the DPS does not start.

    6. in my research on the internet I came across some interesting information in Microsoft Answers referring to
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/943996
    It turns out that, in this article, which...
    "For service"Service of political diagnosis', the problem may occur when the Trustedinstaller account is missing permissions for the key below:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DPS\Parameters

    Is the necessary permission: full control, read. »

    Comparing with my Win7 machine, it turns out that indeed these two permissions are checked in this registry key.

    Open the registry editor in the Vista system confirmed that Trustedinstaller (in French CREATOR OWNER) were missing two permissions. I checked both boxes, but here I ran into a problem: when I clicked 'Apply' controls have disappeared. Can someone please tell me what is the problem here? And this is the solution to the problem of connectivity together?

    Thus, when the Diagnostic Policy Service is running, it will also open access once more to the internet?

    My computer is a Packard Bell EasyNote BU with MS Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit Service Pack 2.

    Forum about it queries are a couple of years. This means that the problem has been resolved without my noticing?

    Without computer access to the internet, it is difficult to diagnose and repair the computer to solve the problem.
    It's a last-ditch effort, I would be so grateful if someone comes up with the solution.

  • How can I automate the NTFS permissions?

    Our directory structure has redundancy: C:\Project1, C:\Project2, C:\Project3, etc.
    Under each folder of the project, the subdirectories are similar: C:\ProjectX\Sub1, C:\ProjectX\Sub2, C:\ProjectX\Sub3, etc.

    We would like to allow to assign permissions to subfolders different NTFS, once the main project folder is created. By example, if I create C:\Project1, I want these subfolders to create and with these permissions:

    • C:\Project1\Sub1: Write privs to Group1
    • C:\Project1\Sub2: Reading only privs for group2
    • C:\Project1\Sub3: Write privs to everyone

    I think that this should be done either through Group Policy or script (even if other alternatives would be appreciated). Could someone give us help on how this started? References would also be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

  • RDM and VCB Performance

    I have RDMs finally backup via VCB no problem... other than the performance is terrible. The level of the files back ups seem to. But when I do a fullvm it seems to back up the whole ROW, without worrying whether it has data on it. I presented a lun 500 GB as a test, put a few text files, has launched a backup and it takes hours to complete. We are talking about a few kilobytes here. In this case, if I use the BEIM or native vcbmounter... same results. It is not the SAN... performance is stellar other than this activity. Is this expected behavior? VCB is not smart enough to know if there are data on the RDM or not? I've seen some other posts to this topic, but has never seen no resolution. Just curious, if you have any ideas. It is good to be a better way.

    Ok. By default, VCB will back up fragmented file as long as you do not pass the-m or F - mode export flags is not transmitted:

    Flags of export:

    -M: If, together, the disk is exported in a single file (monolithic).

    When it is off (default), the disc is divided into several files of 2 GB.

    -F: so together, the disk is exported in the form of disc "flat", with no optimization.

    When it is off (default), the exported files disk will be more compact than

    unused space in the disk image is not included in the exported file.

    The BEST you will get with backups of type fashion SAN FullVM is about 1 GB / minute. It is still slow down with RDM, because they must be converted VMDK when FullVM saving. You know that if you practice a full recovery from the virtual machine (you'RE done this right?). When you retrieve a RDM saved using VCB, it becomes a VMDK.

    RDM are das LUN in the native OS file system format (NTFS, ext3, etc), you may be better using an agent or perform file-level backups. Think about why you use a RDM. If you are recovering to a VMDK, what are the consequences. If there is not, amounted to a VMDK and be done with it. If there ARE implications use of files or agent in function of the backups. If this ROW is for a file server, or either method is fine. If they are boxes in the letters or databases, you better make backups of basis unless you REALLY know how to recover a database store or potentially incompatible mail. The driver of the sync and VSS providers are not a guarantee that you will be able to recover.

  • IMac locked out after changing the sharing and HD permissions

    Made a big mistake with my iMac internal sharing and permissions of HD.   I was experimenting with sharing and permissions of the HD info panel section in the administrator account.    In this article, I've changed the 'everyone' naming 'no access', but in doing so, it froze the machine.  Nothing did not.  I tried to restart, but after that the Apple logo and progress bar appears briefly, the screen went white.

    I tried to make a backup using Time Machine, but when the time came to clear the HD and replace it with the backup TM, I got an error message saying that the system could not erase the HD.  I tried to go into Safe Mode, but he continues to send me the recovery mode.

    I have a boot disc separate I made in Carbon Copy Cloner who is somewhere else right now but I can get, and maybe I can boot from that and do a total deletion of the internal HD and start again.  But I can do in the meantime?  It seems that a configuration option has locked me completely out of the HD to the iMac.

    Thank you

    Ed

    To keep track, I tried something different. I used the option to reinstall OS X when the pane of the utility is on the rise.  My iMac then crossed the download process and reinstall OS X.  After 40 minutes, when he was all done, my machine is back with the connection, settings, and data in place.  I didn't even do a time Machine reinstall data.  Problem fixed.

    Moral of the story is, don't play with fixed and permission of a lot!

  • for months now, I can't watch anything with flash, as it insatlls but does not work, it is defined as still active in the list of addons, and the permissions are active

    I 35.01 FF and can't watch videos requiring flash, it installs ok (or seems as indicated in addons with correct version number) and is set to "always active" in the addons, and I set the permissions on some sites to 'always', but nothing helped. I have now returned to use IE, I would prefer to use FF, but this problem is driving me crazy.
    Thanks in advance

    Dear john99 Further info, I disabled plugins RealPlayer and as you can imagine, they seem to interfere, I activated the flash stopped again, them off and flash now works. Thanks for you input it was greatly appreciated. I can now safely, go back to my beloved FF :)

  • can't empty the Trash because of locked elements and certain permissions

    I want to well to empty the trash, but am getting blocked by two numbers, starting with:

    (1) ''there are some elements locked in the trash. " Do you want to remove all items, including those locked or just unlocked items? »

    Unlike previous messages or suggestions on the support Forum, this text box does not actually identify the locked objects, not their names, places or anything like that. Similarly, when I press Option with Secure Empty Trash, it scatters only my Finder window such that I can not select anything.

    I have browsed through the trash looking for ASCII files or other weird characters and have removed these (created a new folder on the desktop), but this has not changed anything.  When I try to Secure Empty Trash again, the same note appears.

    I tried the two options offered by this text box ('Remove all items' or 'Remove Unocked items'), but regardless of my choice, the following text is displayed:

    (2) the operation cannot be performed because you have not granted access to some of the elements. »

    I guess that brings me to permissions, but given that the article "troubleshooting permissions in Mac OS X - Apple support issues" has been archived and is no longer updated by Apple (from Jan 2016), I'm hoping to get information updated here.

    Please help me!

  • STORE. E TV - problems with Mac and NTFS

    Hello

    yesterday I bought the Toshiba Multimedia Stor.e TV with 500 GB HDD.

    Packed, placed some data from my iMac on the HARD drive, it connected to my TV---> nothing works, the example of the files that were already on the work of HARD drive, won't my files.

    I thought of a few reasons and tried somethings out, the result: MAC metadata are the problem. The HARD drive got NTFS (which I also want to use in the future) and on Mac I use MacFuse to manage NTFS---> Far now without any problem, but somehow Stor.E tv will play all files that I have some Mac inside metadata.

    So, I copy the files from the disk on a Windows PC, just copy it to the Stor.e. ---> No fun at all

    ist ther ecoffet another solution? As an update of firmware that makes the Stor.e able to manage files Mac or an app that kan remove metadata files Mac?

    Sincerely Christian.abbel

    SRY for my bad English, I'm not used to use English

    Hello Christian,.

    The Toshiba HDD Multimedia Stor.e TV supports only MPEG-1/2/4, DAT, VOB, MP4, AVI, XVID and MJPEG files.
    If you want to use another type of file, you must convert in one of the supported file types.

    The TV Stro.e was not developed to play files metadata of Mac and it s so not able to read them.
    So unfortunately, it cannot update any firmware released for this.

    You copy the files to a Windows PC or you convert to one of the supported format.

    Sorry for no better news but that s with the specifications of the TV Stor.e.

    Best regards
