  • How to remove the initial synchronization and use restore backup

    dear friend

    Hello

    I have a question about replication of vsphere

    I limit my bandwidth of the network with my virtual disk machine (vm1) is so big (1 TB) I want to know if I can do the first step to get a copy or a backup of my vm and restore on my second host then to do replication on machine (vm1) when starting replication can he understand most of the data are the second host and not do the full synchronization or initial synchronization just make changes

    my means is: I want to remove the step of the initial sync and sync just to change data

    Best regards

    what you ask is quite possible.

    Replication of Virtual Machines using seeds of replication

    To minimize the network traffic generated by transfer of data during the initial full synchronization, replication vSphere allows you to copy virtual disk files or use the files that already exist in the target data store, and highlight those as seeds of replication when configuring a replication.

    vSphere replication compares the differences on the source and target site and replicates only the changed blocks.

    When, during the configuration of the replication, you select a target for the virtual machine data store,
    vSphere replication seeks a disk with the same file name in the target data store. If a file with the same name exists, vSphere replication invite with a warning you and offers you the possibility to use the disk file existing as a seed for replication. If you accept the option, after that the virtual machine fully configured and enabled, vSphere replication replication compares the differences and replicates only the changed blocks. If you do not agree to the command prompt, you must change the location for your replication target.

    NOTE If you plan to copy the files from the source to the target, the virtual machine data store source must be powered down before you download vmdk files which will be the seeds for replication.

    Ref: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-replication-60/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-replication-60-admin.pdf

    As the note says: power off the VM source and download VMDK who you plan to reproduce, to take them to the site data store target. When you set replication vSphere for your virtual machines, Wizard will ask you how you want to do, as if you have original seeds on the target site

  • suddenly I'm asking as a new tab and not google search - driving me crazy

    Ask the home page is driving me crazy. I want my google search customary as that which opens when I press on the new tab. I was everywhere on the internet to try to fix this. nothing works.

    Since there are different options/settings of the standard page in a new window or a new tab, could you confirm if you have one or two of these problems:

    • Ask if poster at the start, in a new window (Cmd + n), and when you click the Home button
    • Ask appears when you open a new tab in the same window (Cmd + t)

    For these two problems, the first thing to check is an unwanted extension. You can view, disable and often remove the extensions on page modules. Either:

    • CMD + SHIFT + a (Windows: Ctrl + Shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then take a critical look at the extensions listed on the right side. If in doubt, disable or remove if possible. Remember that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Which allows you to regain control of your homepage and view the standard Firefox new tab page?

    If so, here are the details on how to restore your preferred homepage:

    If you find that it works in your session (Cmd + n and give you good home page), but after leaving Firefox and commissioning once again you have bad home page, look for an optional settings file named user.js in your profile (personal settings folder) folder. Firefox uses the settings in this file at startup to override your preferences since the previous session. You can check and delete the file by following the steps in this article: How to fix preferences that will not save (there is a specific section on the user.js files).

    Display Google in a new tab page requires a different approach. From Firefox 41, the browser.newtab.url parameter is no longer used because it was constantly attacked by malware. Now, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the "Restorer of classic theme" or "Tab Mix Plus" extension: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Use only one of these methods at the same time, otherwise there may be conflicts and dysfunctions.

    Setting up substitute new tab and new tab custom

    After installing one of these extensions, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab replace or custom new tab and click on the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    New tab Override

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Custom new tab

    It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See third screenshot attached). I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

    Success?

  • 0x8007001b with Vista Home Premium Center backup and restore backup failure

    I have my Toshiba Satellite M205-S7452 with Vista Home Premium for about 8 months, and November 2007, backup windows, and restore program worked flawlessly. I was able to back up my music, photos and documents to a DVD on a regular basis. But then I started having an error halfway back up that says "drive cannot find the sector requested" with the 0x8007001b error code. It seems that the backup works partially - there are files on the DVD player but I don't know if it ends or not. I tried to do some research on Google and it seems that there is other people affected by this error, but I could not find suggested patches.

    Hi jennielah,

    Please use the Forum of the community for Vista.

    If it has started, use the system restore back to a point before you start. See below for instructions.

    If you can do that I have a work around you. Your specific error seems to relate to update failures, not only the Windows updates but the various failures of update.

    The job is to save it to your hard drive and copy the files on the DVD after the fact.

    I hope this helps.

    Please let us know if we can do something else.

    The System Restore tool

    Other troubleshooting methods, such as using the System File Checker tool, cannot solve the problem. If they do not resolve the problem, and the problem you are experiencing started occurring recently, you can use the System Restore tool. Using this tool, you can restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

    The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start , type system restore in the Search box, and then click System Restore in the programs list.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue .

    1. In the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point , and then click Next .

    2. In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next .

    3. Click Finish .

      The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    How to exclude the missing files or library locations that are on a network backup and restore of Windows 7 Professional drive. To give you more information, I have photos stored on a network drive to the following address: Wirelessspace\LaCie\MyPhotoGallery\Family. This folder is a location of library under the images. Because this folder is on a network drive backup backup not file Wizard.

    In addition, the following file locations is not found because they no longer exist. So why the backup wizard continues to look for and how to remove the backup set? I guess the error code following each line means simply that records cannot be found. Is this correct?

  • I backed up and restored Firefox but my passwords will not restore

    I followed the instructions on how to back up and restore my Firefox profile (that I had to do after a full restore of the system), however, my passwords have not been restored. My Favorites are all here, but the "Saved passwords" box is completely empty. Is there a way I can restore?

    Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problem.
    Copy the logins.json and signons3.txt in this profile to see if it works.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

  • New Firefox, will not save the homepage and will open and display all add-ons every time!

    Okay - years old now, I used Firefox ONLY - he had the best extensions and modules from any other browser out there. Add to that, it is safe and very fast. This is my default browser.

    This week I logged on my DeviantArt site and odd ads began to appear in the lower corners left and right of the browser, unlike what I'd never seen before. Add to that, they were very inappropriate. So I guess something was wrong and went through three, as in 3, programs to find out if I got "bugs" the origin of the problems. And of course, there was a kind of nasty bug in Firefox, causing all sorts of questions.

    So, following the suggestions to fix, as well as the suggestions on here, I uninstalled Firefox (21) and then reinstalled the new version, 23. At first, I thought, ' Wow, this is really very fast! When I opened Firefox it does not go to my home page, he went to the Firefox start page, as well as the opening of the tabs for EACH add-on and extension!

    Yes, open tools, Options and reset the home page of my homepage, https://www.google.com

    Simple and something I've done before. I'm a geek and have worked on my own additions. Set up my home page, has been working in Firefox and went to youtube to download a video it would not! So went to DLhelper, read their comments, changed one of the strings and voila! No problems!

    So I thought it was fixed and I was happy. It was last night. This morning, I start the computer and the first thing we do is to open Firefox. And what happens? Oh, Yes, that's right, NOTHING THAT I wanted TO! It's back to the start page of Firefox, and it opens tabs for EACH SINGLE module!

    Holy carp, tired now. So I research of 8 this morning until about an hour ago, so a little more than 5 hours, that I keep trying to fix it based on instructions of Firefox. Go to topic: config, work on channels, change the info from the home page, etc. Save it. Return to tools, Options, and there is my home page. Close Firefox and open and what the heck? Once again, back to where it was, opening, as if I just downloaded this browser. Now, I spent literally HOURS trying to solve this problem and I am so frustrated that I'm almost ready to uninstall it! My one complaint is that I've looked everywhere to try to find this same problem and it does not. Is true, I am the only one having this weird problem?

    You can reset firefox?
