Several stores data on the Local SCSI disks?

Hi all

Is it possible to have several data stores on 1 partition VMFS on scsi disk?  or have you partition than to install multiple VMFS partitions?

I have 1 VMFS 500 GB partiton, but it does not chop into several datatsores?

The 'fb' partition created during installation is the VMFS data store. You can add another disk and use fdisk without problem.

To do what you want, I guess you would need to delete the existing partition and then use free space to create new partitions 2 or more which could then be formatted with the VMFS. It is a question of intresting so I thought I'd look around (not enough to trash my interesting, but interesting test server). I found this ad that may be useful

Think I might give this whirl next time, I have a system still undelivered to the customer

  • several stores data on the same disks

    It's so strange. I can't create several stores data on the same drive. I have a 2 TB plugged on my server (motherboard) disk and after that I created my first store of data (100 GB), when I return to create another, that the drive isn't an option for me to create a new data store of. When I delete the data store, the drive comes as an option to create a new data store of. WTF?

    of http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-esx-4-1/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=fc_san_config/c_making_lun_decisions.html

    A logic unit number must contain only a single VMFS data store.

    I guess the reason for this is a SCSI reservation. Even if this has been significantly reduced in 4.x it is still necessary for some operations. Each SCSI reservation - even if this is necessary for an operation on a datastore - locks the entire disk and could therefore cause problems on other stores of data on the same drive.

  • Several stores data by the backup task backup VDR 2.0

    I have install a camera VDR 2.0 with 2 - 1 TB data warehouses. One thing I wonder is if I create just backup 1 task it will use two data warehouses. Which means it will fill the 1 data store and then when it is complete, use the 2nd data store?

    Or I have to create two separate backup jobs for each data store? I looked and can't seem to find an answer to this question.

    Thank you!

    You need 2 backup jobs, if you want to use 2 data warehouses.

  • Several stores data in 1 HDD

    Hello

    I do this as an experiment. I have an empty hard disk of 40GB.

    First, create a data store, specify 10 GB.

    After that, try to create a new store of data again. The same hard drive will not appear to select.

    But if I try to increase the data store, it works. So that means I can't have more than 1 data store in a hard drive.

    No idea why Vmware design it this way?

    VMware strongly recommends the creation of a single vmfs volume on one partition, so the GUI does not allow you to create several stores data on the simple lun. It is design to reduce scsi2 reserves.

    You can, however, use vmkfstools command to create multiple vmfs on a single lun data stores.

  • ESXi 5.1 upgrade to ESXi 6.0 with 2 warehouses of data on the local host

    Hi, I'm a little new for vsphere stuff...

    I currently have a 5.1 ESXi host who I want to spend to 6.0. I did with another host with several virtual machines on which had a unique and just ran data store Installer, robbed the store of current data so it updated the system, but kept all my config and VMs in tact.

    However, with this other host, its data store has been expanded at some point, and rather than extend the data store, they have created an additional.

    So my question is now, if I run the Setup, what data store I point to and there are likely to be problems I might encounter?

    Thank you and I look forward to hearing from someone soon

    Hello

    a multiple data store or data store is no question during the upgrade or install ESXi.

    I guess, you start using ESXi Server ISO.

    Select storage (disk or USB/flash storage) where old ESXi is installed during the Installation (upgrade).

    This allows to detect the existing ESXi installation invites you to upgrade instead of doing the new ESXi installation.

    During the upgrade, select preserve existing and upgrade VMFS ' option to make sure that you keep the old virtual machines and old configuration ESXi.

    Thank you

  • 404 error when viewing the data on the local file

    Hello

    In the www of the project folder I have file app.xml with some data deserialized when the application starts. I use jQuery GET to read the parameters as in the example:

    $.get ("app.xml", {function (data)})

    $("#mac").val ($(data) .find ('macAddress') [0] .innerHTML);

    });

    The question starts with trying to serialize the new data in the file. The easiest way is to use the POST method (I tried also to XMLHttpRequest and FileWriter):

    $.post ("app.xml", {function (data)} ")

    .find('files').Append $(this) (data);

    });

    When I run this function, console responds with a kind of access problem (while get works very well):

    POST http://192.168.1.11:3000 / App.xml 404 (not found) send @ jquery - 2.1.4.js:8630ajax

    I've read about similar problems, the solution was always plugin whitelist cordova. In my case it did not work, in the browser, or the android app.

    config.XML:

    < plugin name = "cordova-plugin-whitelist" source = "MNP" spec="~1.2.1"/ >

    (...)

    < access origin = "*" / >

    < allow intention href = "" * "/ >"

    < allow navigation href = "" * "/ >"

    < platform name = "android" >

    < allow intention href = "*" / >

    < / platform >

    It seems to me that I miss some privileges to write data, but it's weird for me that it does not work even in the browser. How should I properly store the parameters of the program?

    You are not allowed to write in this directory. You can watch using the plugin file to write parameters to the eligible repertoire, or seek a solution as Local storage for you.

  • Store data to run out of disk space...

    Hello world

    Hope you can help with that... My server is running more disk space. I have an old server of ESX3.5i. She has 280 GB disk 3 space hosting servers. But the allocation of disk space total for this 3 virtual servers are about 90 GB. So the ESXi server should have at least 180GB available. However, I just checked and the system told me that the 280 GB data store has only 1.93 GB left...

    May I ask why this happens? And how do the clean up?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    ... for those who will be always stay and eatup storage?

    VMware will not delete the VM unless requested by the user. When you right click on a virtual machine in the inventory, you have two options "Remove from Inventory" (which is what probably did you) and "remove disc", which will remove the files of the virtual machine.

    What you can do if the virtual machine has already been withdrawn from inventory is just remove it from the data store or right-click on the VMX file and select 'Add to inventory' and then use the option "remove disc".

  • Need to consolidate 2 vmdk in 1 store data on the SAN.

    Hello

    I have a situation where I created a server (Windows 2008) with 2 drives and E. C resides in its own store of SAN (80 GB) data. E is an another data store (also on the same SAN), 500 GB. ESXi/vCenter 4.0.x

    Unfortunately, the instant/VM SAN backup software will not support a VM with several data stores (I know, stupid is not it?). Data recovery product VMWare supports this, but anyway...

    If I elect not to reconfigure this virtual machine by using a single SAN data store to accommodate two C & E readers, I was wondering the best way to do this? I have vCenter (essentials more, so no Storage vMotion or something fancy).

    I note that the navigation data store I see vmdk files can be a right click and there is an option "move to".  My 80 GB data store contains all the vmx files, etc.

    So, I thought I could:

    1 resize the 80 GB to 580 GB or slightly larger SAN volume.

    2. extend the vmfs from 80 GB to 580 GB data store. I expanded vmfs in the past, it seemed pretty good. Did not notice the extents, are problems that say.

    3. move the vmdk to 500 GB in the new size 580 GB data store. Only, he has about 60 GB of data and is thin provisioned in VMWare and SAN.

    4. make sure that the VM settings show the correct location again for his inappropriate disc.

    5. turn power on and test.

    Or well, maybe I thought I could create a whole new data store of appropriate size to keep both drives, then run the converter to clone the virtual machine on the same host, but with records changed to go into the same data store (new).

    In the meantime, I asked Equallogic to explain why their product can't make backups of virtual machines with multiple data stores. This will be more important for an Exchange 2010 deployment later this fall... I intend to have 2-3 LUN used for databases, newspapers, bones.

    I would NEVER do a store of data of the exact size of the VMDK files that are contained in this... You must have at least 10% free space (or do not exceed 90% of use on the data store). It's a good idea, even when using a provisioning, because if your VM to start using their allocated space (when you are too far on allocated) you will quickly encounter issues.

    I would like to make a single 1 TB LUN, migrating the virtual machine (and all it's files) to the new data store and go from there. I would advise to check the VMDK file names since you could easily have the same exact since filename you places on two data stores differetn VMFS initially (another good reason to not do NOT)... I did it a common practice to make sure that a VM resides on a single store of data/LUN at a time. Go with this method ensures that all software/tools/utilities will not have a problem with the virtual machine (or all VM)...

  • Disadvantages of the default tablespace using to store data from the partitioned table?

    Can someone tell me, are there disadvantages, performance problems using default storage in oracle?

    I not create any tablespace during the creation of the database, but all the data partitioned in a tablespace named 'USERS' default... I will continue using the same tablespce...? I'm storing the data in the table where the growth of the table will be great... it can contain millions of records...? It will produce no degradation of performance? Suggest me on this...

    Different storage areas for administration and easier maintenance. In some cases for performance reasons so different disks are representative to the database (fast and not so fast, different levels of raid...)
    For example if you have several diagrams of database for different applications, you may want to separate schema objects to different storage spaces.
    Or, for example, you want to keep in database read-write tablespaces and just only read. Read-write tablespaces with the data files will be on very fast disks, read only the cheaper and perhaps more slowly (not required). Again separate tablespaces makes this very easy thing to do.
    Or you would like to keep separate indexes from tables and keep them in a different tablespace on the different mountpoint (disc). In this case probably better is to use ASM, but it's more than a reason to separate.

    And in your case-, it may be easier to manage if you create a new storage space for these new objects.
    For example:
    1 storage space for small tables
    1 storage space for small index
    1 storage space for large tables
    1 storage space for large index
    and so on. All depends on your particular architecture and database data growth and what you do with these data after a year, two years, three...

  • Store data from the Serial Port in the buffer and then take action?

    Hello! Everyone,

    I'm new to LabVIEW and I take assistance from various videos and stuffs available online to get started with LabVIEW.

    But I have a duty, therefore needing help.

    initially I see some of the tutorial videos and learned about the LabVIEW interface, and does a little project to communicate with the Port series (receiving and sending data).

    Happens to my task.

    My LabVIEW application will send a few State request packets on my device or control and based on the response packet that I have to display values.

    The Structure of package is as

    Header, length, Op_Code, data Checksum

    There is no terminator as newline or carriage return or anything else.

    In C language, I read the data from the Serial Port, and based on the length, I conclude that I got the full package or not, and then by recalculating the checksum value, the integrity of the package is verified and then based on that Op-Code has been sent will be decided.

    (I'm dealing with hexadecimal data)

    But how can I do this in LabVIEW.
    A tutorial or any referece will be useful for me.

    1. I suggest that you learn to use Shift Registers instead of local and global variables.  They are much more efficient (memory and execution speed) and make it much easier to read the schema.

    2. you don't need this inside the loop property node.  Is there a way to configure a Serial Port to turn off the stop character.

    3. you don't need to wait for playback VISA will limit the rate of loop if no data is coming.

    4. Once you have the length, you simply read the rest of the entire message and process it at a time.  This will make things a LOT faster.

    5. you should really do this enum a def type so that you can ensure that all your enum constants have the same values.  If you need to add a State later, simply update your enum in the same place then.

  • [Apex 5] Ways to temporarily store data on the page before validate/cancel

    Hi all

    could you tell me what would be the best approach in this situation. I have a report with the dishes. By clicking on a link change with a particular dish or by clicking on create button displays a form where the user can change or provide new data. This is based on a table whose name is as flat (automatic line is used). What is more personal here it is only when creating or editing a user of plate is provided with a list of foods and the list of ingredients associated with this dish. User can click on a food that is automatically displayed on another list with flat real describes. At the moment this report ingredients is based on editable views (2 tables under). What is the point here is that the food choice on a list not the insert to display editable with ingredients by a dynamic Action before the user changes record or cancel.

    I want to reach is temporarily food drive that the user chose and insert it to the editable display only when the page is sent or ignore them if you selected Cancel. What would be the right approach here? I've heard of Collections of the Apex, is it ok here? Or perhaps the best approach would be to collect these data on the frontend (angular for example).

    Yes, you could look at using local storage in the browser... but then you must coordinate display and migration to the database...

    For your sake I would lean towards APEX collections...

  • Use LR5. Because of volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. When opening LR5 it references only the local hard disk. How can I change the refernce to read the external drive. Thank you

    Use LR5, due to volume and the size of the photos, I use an external hard drive. LR refers only the Local Drive C not outside. Where do I change this by LR read the external drive. Grateful for the help.

    Thank you

    LR is not a file Explorer. He knows only the disks that you imported photos of.

    If you have previously imported these photos, then later moved into the external hard drive, go to the library files and "update location" Panel on the files that you moved.

    If you have never imported these images on the external hard drive, perform an import by using the option 'Add' (not ' copy') to keep the images on the external hard drive during import.

    What's wrong? any suggestions?

    Many thanks and greetings

    Hello

    This particular Get-Datastore call returns a single object, which cannot be converted to the ICollection. But you can do something like this:

    If ($GetDatastore-[table]) {}

    $array. AddRange ($GetDatastore)

    } else {}

    $array. Add ($GetDatastore)

    }

    It will manage both situations - when you get the data object store or table of data warehouses.
