Resizing disk and extend the volume

Hello

We receive many questions with drives running out of space. So I want to automatically resize these discs and trigger the server assigned to run diskpart to extend the drive. otherwise, there has no presence for the task of resizing automatically.

My problem is: is he a psossibity to trigger this disk extend with powershell plugin vco, without installation on each server certificate and by adding it as a powershellhost to vco.

My workflow resizing works and the powershell script is also no problem. But how to group them?

My idea was to run the script to a central powershellhost. Unfortunately PS plug-ins use ps-remote access and remote in a remote session access is not possible: S

That's why I'm looking for any other in comments operations to handle this.

Do you have any other idea or a good indication.

Thanks in advance

Hello!

I see two ways:

1 use my Plugin PowerSSHell for vCO, he called Powershell via SSH, so you might be able to use ps-distance communication.

Download and info here: http://www.vcoportal.de/powersshell-plugin/

To download powershell ssh server: http://www.powershellinside.com/powershell/ssh/Default.aspx (a free license is available as far as I KNOW)

(A central script host script was exactly the use case, I created the plugin for)

2. you use VIX-plugin (if you're on vSphere 4), or the API vSphere comments 5 to call the script inside the VM guest.

See the discussion here: http://communities.vmware.com/message/2006040

Kind regards

  • ESX3.5U4/VC2.5 - move vmdk to adequate data store and extend the drive on the virtual machine

    ESX3.5U4/VC2.5 - move vmdk to adequate data store and extend the drive on the virtual machine

    Objective: move vmdk to store data with adequate storage and then increase storage D: 20G to 100G

    Converter is not available on this architecture. Can I migrate cold vm to the different data store, no prob.

    Question: Without use of the converter, method 3 can be used without a secondary vm? In other words, just by using target vm offline, online, offline? Or is it a problem of signing/OS disk on the Windows Virtual PC?

    I need to move vmdk in different LUN and extend drive vm windows on D: (non-OS drive). Is this possible via the single procedure? Options?

    To use method 3 to http://communities.vmware.com/thread/81121 requires available vm 'secondary', I did not.

    Method 3? Using of vmkfstools and another VM of Windows to extend a drive

    o stop the VM to resize

    o log in the console ESX Server via Putty

    o Type? vmkfstools? X & lt; new size of drive & gt; vmfs/volumes / & lt; storage volume name & gt;. / & lt; virtual server name & gt;. / & lt; the virtual disk name & gt;? That is to say. /vmfs/volumes/Storage1/my_vm.VMDK new disk size can be specified in kilo, mega, or gigabytes and will be the total size of the new disk. So if you want to increase a virtual disk of 20 GB of 24GO you would put 24000 m or 24g

    o the second virtual machine to help stop

    o change the second virtual machine settings and add the first virtual machine hard drive

    o power on the second VM and load the disk management snap-in and verify that the first virtual machine disk has unallocated on it space

    o select Start, run and enter diskpart.exe

    o the command? the list of volume? This will show you all the volumes.

    o select your volume based on the results of the list volume command, IE. ? Select volume 1?

    o type the command? extend? to extend the volume

    o check again the disk management snap-in and the volume is expected to be expanded with a greater ability

    o stop the second VM and remove (do not remove) the record of it

    o turn your first VM and the new space should be there and ready to use.

    for VI3, vmoiton of storage is made by RCLI plugin or a 3rd party

    I prefer the plugin

    http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/articles-tutorials/VMware-ESX-articles/VMotion-DRS-high-availability/storage-VMotion-SVMotion-VI-plugin.html

    In addition, if the option to increase the size of the disk in the VIC is grayed out, it sounds like a permissions issue.  Finally, you can not extend the disc using the VIC, if the customer in question has a snapshot.

    Hello

    Control Panel - SOUNDS - Audio peripheral devices configuration-manager

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version on the tab of the driver in the device as a sound Manager often restoring drivers, then install
    the current version. Restart and check after each try, not uncommon to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more.
    Just make sure that the version you have installed appears in the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

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

    you want to increase the size of the hard drive.  It currently has a 50 GB

    partition on a 50 GB VHD.  I increase the size of the

    50 GB to 100 GB in VMware virtual hard drive.  Then, can I use

    Windows disk management to increase the size of my partition of the

    side OS to use all the 100GB he sees now?  Or will

    corrupt my data or cause a problem as I really need to

    use a third party tool like EAUSUS inside Windows to extend Windows

    on the size of the virtual hard disk?

    In fact the way you describe, resize the virtual disk and then developing the partition are the way to go. But there are some things that you should be

    aware of.

    -If the VHD is on an IDE controller, you may not be able to resize the virtual disk. In this case use the converter. With the converter, you can resize the disk including the partition and - if desired - replace the IDE controller by a SCSI controller.

    -If you have only one partition under XP (that is, drive c :)) you cannot extend the partition with the diskmanager/diskpart. In this case, start your virtual machine from a CD/DVD Vista/Windows 7 in Repair Mode, open a command line and use "diskpart" from there to "extend" your partition.

    I need to:

    Install Win 7 (I don't have install disks - what is on the HARD drive in his backup partition)

    go into the BIOS, and then assign him drive in AHCI (etc.)

    Install Win 7

    Thank you very much

    Hello:

    Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

    If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

    If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

    I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

    So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

    To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.
