Resize and move the host partition

Hello

I have a windows 2008 64 bit virtual machine with a virtual 400GO, partitioned disk drive C: 50 GB and drive E: 350 GB, two dynamic disk

I would like to expand C: 100 GB and shrink E: to 300 GB. I tried to shrink E: windows disk management and it works, but it space on the right side of the partition scheme, so to extend C: I move E:... .This is the situation after shrink

Free space on the CCC EEEEEE FFF where C is partition C: partition E: E F after shrink

I read some post here about it's possible using GParted.  I tried with Gparted 0.6.2 it see both drives as NTFS, but it gives a warning:

There is no such thing as device/dev/sda3

ntfsresize v2.0.0 (libntfs 10:0:0)

(2) ERROR: Could not check state of Mount ' / dev/sda3 ': no such file or directory

/ Etc/mtab is probably missing. It's too risky to continue

You can try a different distro of Linux.

Cannot read the content of this file system.

For this reason, some operations may be unavailable.

The following list of the software package is required to support the ntfs file system: important

And I can't do operating on these discs

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance

Hello

AFAIK, you can resize your disks using p2v converter. You must do the conversion, v2v using p2v converter, then you can reduce and increase the size of the disk.

  • Move the recovery partition

    I have a new HP Pavilion p6 - 2220t, 4 GB ram, 500 GB hard drive. There the C: partition for the operating system (Windows 7 home premium 64-bit) and the D: partition of data as the recovery partition.

    I want to split the C: partition into two partitions, one for the operating system and one for my data. If I move the recovery partition d: using 3rd party partition software (partition magic) without changing the drive letter, it still operates as a recovery partition?

    Thank you for your help in advance.

    I think that your concepts of misunderstandings. The 'C' partition can be divided into partitions, and the D left alone.

    Here is mine, after the creation of partitions. I've never touched him was 'partition.

  • Move the host from one cluster to another?

    I have two clusters and I need to move a host from one cluster to another. How can I do this and ask the host to connect to the new cluster instead of LUN LUN the host is connected to?

    Thank you!

    to move the host, you can disconnect and then delete.  Once it is deleted, you can 'add host' in the new cluster.  If you have guests running, you should have your SAN team present the LUNS presented to the new cluster for your ESX host, from the other group.  Then, you can use sVMotion to migrate directly from your virtual machine to the new LUN.

    Once it is completed has your team the 'old' not present SAN LUN and do a new analysis of your storage adapters.

    On my iMac OSX El Capitan v 10.11.3 when editing of photos and work between them the screen takes over and moves the picture on the next picture before Ive had the chance to edit, I then fold the photo required to try again. This can happen several times and its so frustrating.

    Similar thing TI also occurs when you are working on other programs on the mac, but not nearly as much.

    Guessing here, but try to disable drag between pages on the tab more than movements in the system preferences > mouse. or a Trackpad. Depending on whether you are using.

    anesvet,
    I'm going to sound like I'm repeating myself tonight... (see previous 4 posts...)  but try this:

    When you start start pressing F8 until you get the Windows startup options.  Then try "Last known good configuration" see if that helps.  If this does not work, try to F * then try to go to Safe Mode.  If those who do not help, I would start with your XP CD to recovery mode and run "chkdsk/r" then "sfc/scannow".  QQ learn manage!

  • How to repartition and format the extended partition and logical drives in Windows Vista?

    How to repartition and format the extended partition and logical drives in vista?

    Disk management...

  • Can I shrink a logical drive and not the extended partition to a bare metal restore to a smaller drive?

    The current configuration is a Dell T310 with a S300 controller, with all locations 4 hot filled with SAS drives.  The operating system is SBS 2008 (2008 Server/Vista), I intend to change the controller of S300 (software) controller, a controller (hardware) H700.  My concern is that the H700 brings readers a little smaller in size.

    The typical arrangement of Dell's diagnosis, followed by a recovery partition partition (E :), followed by the system partition (C :), followed by a partition with a logical volume (d).  If I use Diskpart to shrink the D: 'partition', he let me with free space, not allocated.  Thus, it effectively reduces the logical drive, and the extended partition stays the same size as it was, with no way to reduce it.

    The question is, if I shrink the logical D: drive and not the extended partition and then get backups of the system, I'll be able to a bare metal restore on the smallest virtual disk of the H700?

    That's what I did:
    -Released the S300 controller and 4, 450 GB, 15 000 rpm Cheetah RAID-5
    -Replace the controller H700 and 2, 2 TB 7200 RPM in RAID-1 Constellations

    Results:
    -Eliminates the possibility of falling on a disk space issue when restoring
    -Increased the amount of available disk space.
    M ' left with 2 free hard drive for future expansion bays.

    Hi Stephanie,

    Looks like you are unable to play words with friends on Facebook and also problems with other facebook games.
     
     
    Since you are faced with a design problem with the play on words with friends on facebook, I suggest you to contact the administrator of the game to get more information about the compatibility of the game in Windows RT. You can also ask if they provide latest app for the particular game.

  • How reduce the Win7 boot partition, then move the other partitions left in newly free space?

    Summary: How can I shrink/move partitions on my HDD 650 GB physical so that they reside in the first 500 GB of that drive?

    I have a newly purchased HP dm4-2070us laptop with Win 7 Home Premium (HP OEM) installed on the hard disk of 640 GB.  This hard drive is slow, so I would like to replace it with a 500 GB Seagate Momentus XT.

    In order to be able to clone all the partitions of the 640 GB drive for the smallest 500 GB replacement drive, I need to shrink the partition C: (main window), then move the partitions remaining 'left' ending up with all partitions in the first 500 GB of the disk so I can then copy this image to the new drive of 500 GB.

    I already have the software to clone the partitions of the 640 GB drive for the 500 GB drive.

    My concerns:

    (1) the administration tool Win7 disc printing should it allows me to shrink the C: boot partition, but I don't know if that can damage anything.

    (2) move the SYSTEM partition, or the partition RECOVERY left the impression that he could render the system unbootable.

    Here is a screencap of my current scores in the Win7 disk management tool:

  • How to get the files to and from the host

    Is there something that I can read which explains how to get the (ftp, memory stick or other) files to and from the host?

    Sorry if this is a noob question, I looked but could not find something specific...

    There are many ways of doing so:

    1 activate not supported ssh and scp use

    2. use VI Client access to your storage space on configuration files and server transfer

    3 configure the iSCSI or NAS to deal directly

  • Create new vCenter and move the ESXi hosts

    Hello

    I created a new vCenter vCenter apparatus using ISO 6.

    The deployment went well and I have all the installation program. I would now like to move hosts our old vCenter to new ESXi.

    I was reading this article to start the moving process.

    When I try to disconnect the host I get the message below

    vcenter6_hostmove_001.png

    In the article in the link above it is written that it will not affect the State of the virtual machine running on the host.

    If I click on 'Yes' here, it will automatically put the host in maintenance mode?

    I prefer not to do it if I can avoid it because I don't want to have to evacuate all virtual machines running on the esxi host.

    Wouldn't it be better if I disabled it HA first? Then try to move hosts? Or I'm sure to sign-out and the subsequent removal?

    Thank you

    See you soon

    Hello

    You must put your server in maintenance as a first step mode, then unplug and remove the server. It will work.

    If it doesn't work, disable temporary HA and remove your host of the VC.

  • Move the host / VM and Clusterconfiguration to an another VC

    Hello

    Here's the situation:

    I have 2 data centers (physical rooms) in the main Department of the city one and the other a smaller Department in city b. Two data centers have environment VSphere and a VSphere server... now we want to consolidate this... which means I want to turn off the server vsphere small in b City Department. How can I transfer the configuration full vsphere (for example, the cluster hosts and vm) on the server 'big' vsphere in the Department's main city a. city and b are related to transparent LAN...

    Welcome them

    Assuming you leave the hosts side B of the B site, you could just create a Cluster in the center of destination data and existing copy of the page by page the cluster configuration.

    Once you have done this, you should be able to remove the side hosts B and add them to the new cluster on the a-side.  The VMS should not to b off the power.
