Reset cbt - cannot get rid of the ctk vmdk files

Hi, I have a known problem with the backup of my virtual machines where I need to reset the CBT. The procedure I have the backup software is as follows;

Solution:

Please follow the steps below to reset the CBT for a specific virtual machine.

1. turn off the virtual machine

2. right click on the virtual machine, click on "Change settings", find the 'Options' tab and click 'settings of Configuration.

3. set the value of 'ctkEnabled' to false

4. set the 'scsi0:x.ctkEnabled' to false for each disk of the virtual machine in question

5. open the source folder and remove all - CTK. VMDK files.

6. turn on the virtual machine

7. power off the virtual machine again. This step is necessary to update the table of CTK.

8 turn on the virtual machine

9 replay backup task.

So I have 2 VMs. VM1 and VM2. Both are win2k12 r2 (they are created the same day, the same way, installation of r2 std win2k12, patches, etc...). In step 5, for both servers, even if I delete the ctk.vmdk files, they are automatically reproduced so I can't delete them. Then I continued with the neverthless steps. After step 8, I saw that for VM1, has more ctk.vmdk files so that they are deleted somewhere in the process by the server itself. So my guess is that step 5 is not relevant. The problem I have is that even if I did exactly the same thing for VM2, ctk.vmdk files are never deleted. I reboot 3 times, I tried to manually remove them several times, they always, never to return, they are deleted.

So, basically, I can't reset the cbt on VM2. I double check this ctkenabled are all 'fake' (tried also uppercase) still no luck. Any ideas how I could get rid of these ctk.vmdk files?

Thank you

Hi, proved that there was a snapshot. As soon as I deleted it, the ctk files disappeared.

  • Cannot get rid of the read-only file attribute

    I have a folder on my PC which is marked read-only.  The Setup program seems set up like that.  If I right click on the folder and go to 'Properties' there is a grey checkmark on "read only".  If I have it uncheck the box, and then click OK or apply then OK, it remains unalterable (the grey tick comes).  There is no hidden file in the folder.

    How can I fix it?

    Contrary to all logic of common sense, the 'Read only' attribute, as shown in the Properties screen has absolutely nothing to do with 'Read only' when it refers to a folder in Windows XP. In fact, it indicates that it is a custom folder.  A full explanation can be found here:

    "You can not view or change the read-only or the attributes of system files in Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7"

  • Cannot get rid of the BIOS password

    Bought an ACER Aspire E1 from an EBAY of ACER store about a year ago. A few weeks ago, I started it and quickly received a BIOS PASSWORD entry. Since that time, the laptop was absolutely worthless. I guess I tried the hardware, software, battery and all I could think of to fix the problem. I tried the MICROSOFT forums. ACER, ASK.COM Forums and forums Forums, forums, forrums and other forums that I could think of to try to resolve the unknown BIOS password. Thanks UEFI.

    I guess short of replacement of the EEPROM on the motherboard (don't think even that would help) which I'd be suspicious to do.

    Cannot get rid of the BIOS password.

    If I contact the ACER Support, they say that it's a hardware problem. I tried (as suggested by ACER support), bringing to STAPLES, BESTBUY, FRYS ELECTRONICS, OFFICE MAX, DATA DOCTORS, and several other 'Repair computer facilities' nothing works.

    IN a WORD, it's a PIECE OF a $400 trash...

    Hello

    I googled this file pofusido.dll and it could be caused by a virus.

    I would suggest that you disable the restore mode as viruses use it to reinstall set apart them.

    Download and install the free http://www.malwarebytes.org/

    Restart the computer and keep pressing F8 to get into safe mode with network connection.

    Once you have updated Malwarebytes run and see if it can remove the virus.

    So delete all cookies in your internet Explorer.

    Please keep in mind that my answer is based on the information in your message. More the better I can answer, Slan go foill, Paul

  • Smartphones from blackBerry Desktop Manager "disconnected" and I cannot get rid of the error message

    I just bought a Blackberry Curve 8530, running v5 software, my computer is Windows 7. I installed the 501_b073_multilanguage software that I downloaded from the site Web of Blackberry. When I run the Desktop Manager I get this message: "Before you start, check that your current BlackBerry device is connected to your computer." Troubleshooting functions I've seen on this forum: many tips (ones I've tried is below). One in particular, that I can't do is "Office Manager shows"off". ".
    -Make sure that the user has entered in the Desktop Manager and select options > connection settings > detect. »

    ... because I can't get rid of the error message dialoge box, and I can't click on the menu options in the BB Desktop Manager.

    I tried the following:

    • uninstalled and reinstalled twice - 2nd uninstall was a "hard" uninstall where I deleted the registry files by hand
    • installs the cable to the USB port at the back (after having tried both ports at the front) of the computer
    • rebooted the computer several times
    • hard starts the phone by removing the battery
    • plugged in, removed and replugged in the phone.

    Also:

    • The phone is properly install when I plug it in, but the software still does not seem to see it.
    • In Device Manager, the BlackBerry appears under portable devices. Double clicking on it gives me the message "this device is working properly." of reassurring.
    • The Com1 port is working properly, according to Device Manager.
    • A double-click on the icon of the Device Manager to get the properties indicates that the Com1 port is "disconnected" - when I try to set it up, it appears just back to the disconnected state.

    If someone has an idea or something that I have not tried, I'd be happy of course!

    Thank you!

    Good, people, after a phone call from 3 1/2 hour with a (very patient) phone support person to Blackberry, here's what I learned.

    You can check your drivers USB in this way:

    1. Plug your phone into your USB key. Assuming that your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
    2. Go into the Device Manager on your computer (Panel)
    3. Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers at the bottom of the list item
    4. Right-click on the BlackBerry smartphone, and then select Properties
    5. Click on the driver tab
    6. Click the driver Details button
    7. You should see a driver. I saw two. The one like the BlackBerry is the RimUsb one.

    So here's what NOT to do: we threw any driver who has been the "extra". This actually made using my mouse and keyboard cannot, because they are USB and my poor husband has sent in the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and mouse) with the old fashioned type of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't, don't.

    Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you - it changes the registry to a backup system with this backup and restore if you are nervous about this kind of thing):

    1. On the start menu, choose run and type regedit into the registry editor.
    2. Follow this path to the file: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, computer, class
    3. Click: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
    4. If there is an article called law "UpperFilters", delete it. (See photos)

    Hope this helps someone.

  • Classroom in a book - CS4 - Lesson 6 - cannot get rid of the noise

    I'm on Lesson 6 version CS4 classroom in a book. I worked on the image with the mother and child, but I can't seem to get rid of the noise in the mountains and the sky. They look very grainy. I've followed all the steps exactly and even went through screen shots to see if any setting have been changed which may not have been mentioned. I compared my version to the version 'End' and they seem very different. The mountains and the look of the sky much better in the "End" version, although the mother and child look more exposed. On mine, the people look much more sharp, but the noise in the mountains is terrible and the sky is also quite grainy.  I redid this part of the lesson about 6 times, four times on my PC and twice on a MAC, but the results are always the same.  The sharpness which lesson you do at the end, while improving certain parts, the granulation in the worst of the sky and the mountains.

    This has been very frustrating.  Clearly something more was done with the image of 'End', which was not in the lesson.  Even if people, in my opinion, look better in my finished version, the mountains and the sky look terrible, and the background was the entire point of the lesson. Does anyone have ideas, what has been done to make the smooth background to the image of 'end '?

    I dug my copy of PS CS4 classroom in a book and went through the same lesson to see what results I got.  I can confirm that the noise reduction is not optimal.  See the example in the picture 'after ':

    Compare with the results of a 3rd party plugin noise reduction (in this case Topaz Denoise) using a standard preset:

    This version needs a bit of sharpening is to the people.

    In doing this exercise that I was reminded why I dislike the Classroom in a Book series.  It makes you go through the steps like a zombie, tell you what value to enter in each field, but it does not often do the fields. Certainly, as a reader, you are free to experiment, but which do not encourage lessons. And the fact that the results do not always match the book and readers are disappointed when the results do not confirm my opinion that the book is not encourage experimentation.  Perhaps a further reduction of noise was made for each channel in the Advanced setting of section.as described in the box of Lesson 6.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.
