Simple question - virtual disks telling apart for VDR

Have a server that has a few virtual disks that are found on my lower speed discs in my SAN and some discs that are in my speed drives higher on my SAN.  So my VM has the following readers:

HD1 - 25GB vmname/vmname - WS.vmdk

HD2 - 20GB vmname/vmname - WS_1.vmdk

HD3 - 15 GB vmname/vmname - WS_2.vmdk

HD4 - 200 GB vmname/vmname - WS.vmdk

HD1 and HD2 are the discs that I am interested in the backup.  HD3 and HD4 are just full of data that I have been saved by our main backup structure.  When I add a task to backup for this virtual computer in my data recovery console, it gives me the choice to save the following readers:

vmname - WS.vmdk

vmname - WS.vmdk

vmname - WS_1.vmdk

vmname - WS_2.vmdk

One of these vmname - WS.vmdk is a 25 GB disc which I don't back up, the other is a 200 GB drive that I can't save...  How do I know which is which?

Of course you can.

1. mark the restore point corresponding to the removal during the next audit of integrity if you don't know that it is to be the wrong drive.

2. go in configuration/targets and launch an integrity check manual on target for removing running next time.

3. Once complete integrity check Remove the wrong drive for your backup job and put the right one in.

But attention to the fact that fill only restore points can be selected for deletion, not a single hard drive out of it.

Then you should start the backup job after reconfiguration immediately to have a new backup near time.

And that's all.

  • Maximum number of virtual disk for a virtual machine in vSphere 4.1

    I read the maximum record rate and see that the maximum number of virtual disk is 16 for FT.

    I have the same document I seem not to be able to see the number max of virtual disk that can be taken in charge for a virtual machine.

    The number will be the same as the number of LUNS per host which is 256?  I know the max is for the host, but that be will come the number of Director to the total number of virtual disk that can be supported in the virtual machine?

    In fact, in a logic unit number, we can have more than one data store that can be mapped to a virtual disk.

    I'm confused.

    Thank you and have a nice week,

    Anthony.

    If I am not mistaken, you can attach up to 60 virtual disks to a virtual machine. 15 for each of the 4 virtual SCSI controllers.

  • question about creating virtual disks on my MD3220i

    I create a virtual disk where I put a SQL Server and it asks me to

    Choose the type of virtual disk IO characteristics. The file system (typical), database, multimedia and Custom options.

    I think the selection of data because it is a SQL Server. However I'm not sure because I have not much of

    experience with this. My question is that one should choose or perhaps not even matter?

    Thank you

    Being that the VD will be strictly for SQL, then you can go ahead and select the database option. Any other time, you must select the typical option. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

  • OpenManage for VMWare ESXi has no possibility of tasks of virtual disk

    OMSA v 7.1 and 7.2 for Windows (and earlier versions) allow the user to perform many tasks on virtual disks, including reconfiguring - expand a RAID array with a new drive.

    This is not true for managing open for VMWare ESXi - although you can monitor the status of the RAID and disks with the browser of the OMSA interface type, you cannot perform tasks - can not even make a high beam Flash.

    It is a huge problem, because the PERC controllers (H700 and H800, for example) don't allow you to develop virtual using hard drives not Dell disks when you try this during startup in the bios.  (These controllers only allows you to create new virtual disks using drives not Dell).

    This test was conducted using the latest firmware (12.10.4 - 0001 A10) and drivers for the H700 and H800 and multi-server r610 ESXi 5.1.

    Other people with VMWare have been affected by the present?  The only solution is to have two player networks connected to the computer, and create a simple Windows with OMSA, boot in Windows Server to expand the table using OMSA for Windows.

    I would be interested in the comments of others, including those of Dell.  We spent hours on the phone with Dell; This seems to be the only solution.  (Yes, Dell released a firmware version last year that has ceased blocking non Dell readers, but it only works for the creation of a new virtual disk, do not expanding one existing).

    Yes.  It came through a discussion in the Dell | Servers | Discussion of the RAID community.

    en.Community.Dell.com/.../20263442.aspx

    There is a CD bootable linux called OMSA Live that you download from PowerEdge (linux OS) systems management.

    This OMSA PERC H700 and H800 control and allows you to do everything.  When you reconfigure the RAID and the PERC card starts the reconstruction, although it seems risky, you can restart under VMware and the reconstruction of the RAID continues on.  And you can analyze with OMSA for VMware.

  • No matter what advantage of having a virtual disk instead of partition for SQL server?

    have a quick question...

    I intend to deploy a new server in SQL on VMWARE 5.1 with super 3PAR storage (I'm not Administrator VMWARE, just an occasional driver).

    I'm going to d, e, f for DATA, the newspapers partitions, backup. Does make sense to create a disc of rtual for each partition instead of create 3 partitions on a disk of VMWare return Outlook - 3PAR?

    Thank you.

    I would recommend you create three virtual disks, because in this way you can easily put each virtual disk in a different level.

    Using a single virtual drive for all three partitions, you can't give different level for each partition... in any case if your storage supports a hierarchy at the block level, storage moves the hot blocks of vmdk to a better level.

  • PowerEdge R720 virtual disk question

    Hi, our company has bought a Dell PowerEdge R720. I tried to use the lifecycle controller in RAID configuration. At the start, it has 3 500 GB SAS HARD drive, but I ordered 2 x 320 GB additional SAS being what I intend to do it, use the 2 x 320 GB like OS install as RAID 1 and RAID 5 on the default 3 x 500 GB, but for some reason any, whenever I have configure RAID , either on the two 320 or 3 x 500 GB, it shows just a virtual disk, 2 x 320 GB or 500 GB x 3, I see not two for RAID 1 and RAID 5 virtual disks. Am I missing something here? or I have to perform an extra step?

    Kind regards

    Jeff

    Hello Jeff,.

    If you try to install the operating system through the lifecycle controller method. You must have the latest lifecycle controller OS driver pack installed in your system. For the latest driver pack OS, please download from our support http://support.dell.com/ site by entering you service number and download OS Driver pack drivers.

    You can update the OS driver pack thorugh iDRAC GUI or through the lifecycle controller GUI and once after the OS driver pack update. When you try to deploy the operating system through the life cycle of the controller, you will appear on the list of supported operating systems and you can select the operating system you want to install by mounting the image operating system or DVD media connected to the system.

    Please let me know if you have any question.

    Thanks, Neeraj

  • Simple question... How do to add pictures on the body of my MAILS found 1000 results for how can I add photos to my Thunderbird emails

    How can simple question - I add photos to my mail body. But instead of the answer - found 1000 results for how can I add photos to my Thunderbird emails. There are answers that don't apply at all to the question anyway. Why must it be so difficult to get a simple answer to a simple question?

    Thunderbird is a bit like Microsoft, all the reasons as I dumped MS Live Mail.

    First, a lot of help for Thunderbird refers to the menus that may not be visible. It would be useful to you and us if you have your menus and toolbars visible.

    http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.UK/13_Menus_in_Thunderbird.html

    Then, open a window of writing. Activate the menu and operate.

    Now that you see an option "Insert"?

    If this isn't the case, you can assign composing in plain text, which does not support embedded images.

    Tools | Account settings| {Select account} | Composition & addressing and ensure "Compose messages in HTML format" are checked. If it is not already checked, go back to writing a message. No better now?

    Once you have the mode of composition HTML goes, you can use Insert | Image or various permutations of copy - paste and drag - move to the body of your message.

    A manual of sorts: http://en.flossmanuals.net/thunderbird/composing-messages/

    MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inches, beginning 2013) El Capitan 10.11.3, Simple question here: I can't open FinalCut Express (4, I believe). The wheel turns for hours. How can I install/uninstall and will I lose all my old films (for the most part stored on external hard drives). Thanks for your suggestions.

    You will not lose anything, but the app if you uninstall. If you decide to uninstall use this app to make sure that all the other files which depends on FCE are also deleted however I can't give you any assurance as to whether you will be able to reinstall so that it works correctly. It is a software that has not been supported for almost 5 years and there are conflicting reports as to its compatibility with OS X 10.11. Can't I test it myself.

    Maybe someone else will chime in with their own experiences.

    looking for your kind suggestions/solutions.

    Kind regards

    Alaka

    ... VDP is located on one of the host's local storage physical there not on the SAN

    According to the error message, local storage of the physical host has run out of disk space due to unit VDP growing (thin provisioned) data disc "Data Protection 6.0_1.vmdk". Backups require more than currently available disk space, so there is not a lot of options available. You must either increase the data store to which this virtual disk is stored, or migrate to another, more department store of data if you want to continue to run backup jobs as they are currently configured.

  • Copy of the virtual disk for use by another virtual machine

    Hi all! How can I copy a virtual disk file to a location for future use by another virtual machine? I tried to just copy the hard, but it did not work for me - the copy is about 1 KB size and I can not add it as a hard drive on another virtual machine. Can someone help me?

    OK, so this client web vSphere that you use, in this case browse datastore doesn't show you the two files.

    Please follow the steps below

    Please go to Cluster & host inventory

    Select your ESXi host

    go to the tab 'Manage'-> settings-> Security-> Service Profile, and then click the button CHANGE

    Start the SSH service.

    If please use WinSCP to connect to your Esxi host and navigate to the folder of the virtual machine as in the screenshot to the suite, I navigated to a folder that is my VM name: Win10A

    and it has a virtual disk, if I want to take the virtual disk of this virtual machine to a different VM, I need to copy the two files that are highlighted.

    the two are to train your virtual disk.

    Download these two files and download them to another folder where you second VM resides, then try to tie it with this virtual machine.

  • Question about virtual disk

    I have a qustion about virtual disks

    I assigned 5 GB on a virtual disk. Then I realized that I need more space, so I changed to 20 GB.

    When I have energised the VM, it always complained not enough space. Even if I 'clearpart-set' in the startup script.
    I ended up remove the virtual disk and create a new one to solve the problem.

    "It seems that this partition table/information is always on the disc and kickstart' cleartpart all ' did not clean.

    How to solve the problem? instead of creating a new virtual disk?
