Resize the fixed size VMDK

Im trying to resize a vmhd. I know that I have to convert it into a new vmhd to do. Ive been looking for a little while and got a good idea on how to do it, but something must be wrong in my syntax.

Here's what I have.

C:\Virtual Machines\VM1 > "c:\Program VMware Server\vmware - vdiskmanager.exe ', VM1.vmdk - r t 2 s 14 GB VM1_reduced.vmdk

what I think is the syntax to convert a fixed disk of VM1.vmdk (t 2), size 14 GB, new name for VMDK

but when I run, there is the original size which is about 16 GB. (Yes there is free space available in the host which is a windows Server 2003 OS)

Any thoughts?

Ahh... you can not reduce the defined maximum size of a virtual disk with vmware-vdiskmanager (or any other VMware tool, in fact).  You must create a new virtual disk and ghost/clone the existing drive, on another; then replace the original with the new disk in your virtual machine.

    Hello

    In the print dialog box, you would get options to resize your document.

    Try them and see if that helps.

    Once you choose the print option, it would give options to change the size of the page you need.

    Please check and see if it suits you or not.

  • Automatically resize the font size?

    Does anyone have an idea how auto made in excess of text in a text block fixed?

    I import a lot of languages in fixed text blocks and it's a pain to keep the resizing or scaling manually.

    Still, I was supplying any javascript or applescript which can do. The closest was "JET_AutoFitVertical.jsx", but this resizes the text blocks

    If you want to stop stop HrizontalScaling to 70% and scale of size, below...

    While (cntsLength! = visibleChar) {}
    If (vscale > 0.7) {}
    scalingWidth (TPCV, [vscale, 1]);
    } else {}
    scalingSize (slct);

    txObj.paragraphs [i] .size = txObj.paragraphs [i] .size - 0.5;
    txObj.paragraphs [i] = txObj.paragraphs [i] .leading .leading - 0.25;
    Redraw();
    }
    }

    change the while loop. And to add a function. It provides leadership and size of sizing.
    But if contain different sizes in paragraphs, we add loop and set the properties of each characters.

    for example.
    function scalingSize (txObj) {}
    for (var i = 0; i)<>
    for (var j = 0; j)
    txObj.paragraphs [i] [j] .characters .size = txObj.paragraphs [i] [j] .characters .size-0.5

  • Is it possible to resize the image size for all clips at once?

    I have a video of music finished and when I export there is a black box around the video. I tried to put the exported file back in first and by resizing the area program, but when I exported the video became unstable. I could resize each item individually in the first original file, but it would obviously take a lot of time, so I was wondering if there is a way to select them all and resizing, or even another way to cut out the black bars (trying to size for youtube). Thanks for any help, it is much appreciated.

    Josh,

    Welcome to the forum.

    The best way to handle things is to choose a pre-defined sequence that matches your footage source of the layer at 100%.

    In light of the where you are now, you can go to your first Clip and adjust the fixed effect > Motion > adapted for her greatness. Then, Rt-click on it, choosing the copy. Now select all the other Clips (Lasso with the slider will work) and then Rt click, choose the attributes of the dough.

    CS5 offers a new tool to configure your sequence. Import your footage source of the layer, then select it in the project Panel, drag it to the new icon to get a corresponding sequence.

    Good luck

  • cannot resize the virtual disk (vmdk) after successful hyper-v conversion

    Hello

    We are experiencing an environment vSphere 4.1. I have a problem on the Ramdisk resizing.

    We had managed to convert a hyper v VM. Virtual machine operating system is Windows 2008.

    After that, I can't resize the virtual disk (GB in disk options was gray-ed out, even when the virtual machine is power down)

    It's strange

    I have attached several screenshot of the virtual machine.

    Need your advice.

    Thank you

    His grace is on the IDE interface and you can not resize. the only way is to reclone using vmware converter and resize in the wizard. For more information: http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2010/05/28/resizing-your-ide-virtual-harddisk/

  • Video randomly resizes the maximum size on my HP P6740F desktop computer

    My wife has a PC HP P6740F.  It is currently running Windows 7 Premium.  His computer is connected to a ViewSonic monitor.  It uses the Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 and the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard.  There were no changes to the computer hardware.

    We had our computers for about 15 or 16 months.  For the last month at random times its screen will grow in size until it reaches the maximum.  She can bring to the size by holding the CTRL key and using the scroll on the mouse wheel.  She played a game called Jewel Quest and it makes certain demands on the video card.  We do not know if this problem is related to the video game or another problem.  I asked him to start her computer after she ended the game but that has no effect.

    I also have the same computer and I have not had problems.  I do not play video games, and that's why I thought that it might be related.

    I wonder if it's a known problem or how to fix.

    Thank you.

    Hello Abbey_Normal,

    I would venture to say that this is not a known problem or you would go into the same problem as well, but it may be a problem with the driver that is currently installed on the computer.

    1. go to the control panel

    2. Select system and security

    3. then choose Device Manager

    4. under the terms of graphics card would be the monitor drivers, do a right click and uninstall

    At this point your monitor will turn off and we need allow Windows reinstall the driver, but we need to restart the computer.

    To restart

    1. press the Windows key

    2. press the right arrow key twice

    3. press r

    After the reboot it should log on Windows as usual and re-install the drivers. Check the device to see if everything works correctly at this time.

  • want the line to resize as you resize the browser size

    Hello

    I created a horizontal black bar which is intended for the menus.  The black bar and a line should auto resizing I want to do this automatic resizing, but I am not able to figure out how to do.

    I have 2 head & foot masters and I believe that I have created themselves. However, one of them is able to resize as browser resizes it but we didn't and I can't understand why.

    Here is an example:

    http://trtesting1.BusinessCatalyst.com/index.html

    In this page, the white line (under black nav bar resizes as resizes browser (it's what I want))

    When you click on "goto line which does not resize ' or here http://trtesting1.BusinessCatalyst.com/portfolio.html

    the line under the black navigation bar resizes as browser resizes.

    I've done both in the same way, but I'm not sure of what resizing small things I have to do to get it.

    Pointers appreciated!

    Hello

    I checked the pages and seems that white line under a black bar in portfolio page isn't 100% width so sound is not resizing.

    The difference here is also white line is below the black bar on the home page but white line is included in the black bar to portfolio page.

    Please visit the portfolio page black bar and try to adjust the white line for the 100% width.

    Thank you

  • Write the table of data (with a fixed size)

    Hi fellow users of LabView,.

    My problem is very basic, I'm sorry about that, I'm just a beginner

  • I would like to resize the windows of fixed size...

    I feel almost ridiculous to have to ask this question, but after many (MANY) searches on the internet, I simply could not find a single effective fix.  Basically I want to somehow resize a window of fixed size (even through a registry hack).  More directly, I want to "expand" the columns resizable/visible so that I could FULLY discovered, for example, the paths of very long filenames, etc. - including the windows "System Configuration" window.  I'll do whatever it takes: registry hacks, utility installs... little matter.  It simply must be a solution to this age-old problem.  Thank you.

    Not sure, but maybe investigate http://download.cnet.com/Resize-Enable/3000-18487_4-75447319.html

    I never tried myself so can't tell how a good or bad, that is. And as always, AV check the download before install - just to play safe.

    Thanks for the quick return, George.  Unfortunately (and), I have downloaded and tested Resize-activate the same day I "gave up" and started this post.  It's funny, though, how the minds of Microsoft can't see the forest for the trees sometimes.  It is an age-old problem, and all simply be aware now.  Take care.

    Did you run the executable an administrator?

    I used ResizeEnable and you need to right click on the executable and select run as administrator.

    It works fine on Msconfig

    You set the font size to a size that is suitable for the size of the document.   Size of the document may vary everywhere.   To resolve this problem in action, I solved in scaling the document to a known size then use a font suitable for a document of this size.  When you resize an image using size with resample Images not only checked a single pixel is change everything that is changed is the DPI image resolution setting.  So if you size a picture 8 "wide you choose a font size is good for wide image 8" the Save action.  To work around the problem of changing the size of the printing I wrote a Script to use in such an action.  The script is used twice, there is a backup and restore script.   The first time that the script is used the script records the resolution DPI images in the metadata documents.  The second time that the script is executed, it retrieves the registered PID parameter deletes the record of metadata from images and set the DPI images that had been saved.    If the use of fonts for the document 8 "will be resized to fit the print original size.

    In a script, you can calculate a correct font size to use.  Actions cannot retrieve information or use logic. They need to use the Plug-ing and Script where logic is needed.  When you make using Photoshop UI you use your eyes and brain.

  • Cannot resize the virtual disk, the virtual machine by using a «child» vmdk file

    Release: VMWare workstation 9

    SE host: Windows 7 64-bit

    Screenshots below.

    I want to resize my VM from 50 GB to 100 GB.

    It seems that VMware workstation 9 uses a child for my VM vmdk.  In my case, using its "Windows Server 2008 R2 x 64 - 000001.vmdk" for its virtual disk file.  The correct file should be "Windows Server 2008 R2 x64.vmdk", I think.

    There are currently no snapshots registered for this virtual machine, I see.

    The virtual machine works well as is, but I can't resize the disk without the VMWare gui, saying I should be perform the operation on the parent vmdk file.

    It seems that I do run a snapshot that is not really a snapshot?  How to merge with the older files - Sxx.vmdk to 0000xx - Sxxx.vmdk

    I also tried to use the command line tool to manually resize the vmdk parent, but I get permission "access denied" errors.

    Kind regards

    He no snapshots are displayed in the Manager of snapshot with the check box 'Show AutoProtect snapshots' verified then the snapshot is an orphan and the best way I use normally to fix this if I want the contents of the snapshot of orphan to be among the basic disk is with tab of the virtual machine in VMware Workstation GUI closed I simply delete the .vmsd file and then open the virtual machine tab in the VMware Workstation GUI and cover and immediately remove a snapshot in the Snapshot Manager.  This will force the orphan snapshot to merge with the parent disk.  Then to clean I still remove the .vmsd file and orphans, .vmsn and .vmem file.

    Note: Before the procedure you have a good backup of the virtual machine in case you accidentally mess something up.

  • The image placed in illustrator is the right size, even if the original was resized in photoshop

    Hi when I resize an image in photoshop and then "place" in illustrator 'placed' image is way smaller in illustrator than photoshop.

    To give an example, I just created a canvas photoshop 900px x 900px with a resolution of 300ppi and filled with red color. Then, I saved this image to JPEG to jpeg format had a dimension of 900px x 900px.

    Then I open an illustrator document format to 900px x 900px at 300 PPI and 'placed' red jpeg I created in illustrator into photoshop.

    Now, I expect the "put" jpeg in order to cover the entire artboard in illustrator because the jpeg format is 900px x 900px and so is the artboard. However what is really happening is the image "set" is displayed, but is more than four times smaller in illustrator! In itself, this isn't a problem, but then when I scale up the size I want for example 900px x 900px, resolution begins to decrease and radically!

    How can I fix this I want to be the size of a photo and "place" in illustartor to the appropriate size and 300 DPI so I can print it!

    Help, please! Thanks in advance!

    mrplod,

    Ah, now I know what you mean.

    Illy basically works points, 1 point = 1/72 of an inch, and the pixel of the camera (you can choose instead of points, inches, etc.) has the same value, 1/72nd of an inch. This ambiguity is part of the difficulty to understand all this.

    I chose an image which is 3508px x 2631px and 300 ppi.

    An image that is 3508px x 2631px is just that: it comes to the size of the pixels, which means that it is made of 3508 x 2631 = 9 229 548 pixels (small squares), each of which can have its own color, no more, no less.

    This image can be represented in any size in any application, and the size will determine its resolution in PPI (Pixels Per Inch). If you divide the size of 300 to get a resolution of 300 DPI, you will get 11.693 x 8.77 inches = 841.92 631,44 points/pixels x (included in the unit 1/72nd of an inch).

    This means if you want that image to display a resolution of at least 300 PPI you get more 11.693 x 8.77 inches = 841.92 x 631,44 points/pixels (pixels as units to Illy).

    If you wish to zoom at 300 DPI, you start with a great and original image.

    An image setting up a work plan of 900 x 900 points/pixels = 12.5 x 12.5 inches at 300 PPI will be 3750 x 3750 pixel (300 * 12.5 = 3750).

    Are you sure it's the real size of the red square, you did in Photoshop? If so, I have no idea why it shows the way for it to Illy.

    Edit:

    I just read it again:

    I saved then this image to JPEG to jpeg format had a dimension of x 900px 900px

    When you export to JPEG, you can set a resolution, but you can also just save it to a real pixel (as in Save for Web & devices) for example size 900 x 900 pixels. Maybe it's when things go wrong.
