• Increase the size of the hard disk on the Image of VI

  Hello

  Is anyway to increase the size of the HD on an image that I have already downloaded on my server ESXi (3.5)? I tried to power on to the bottom of the image, and change the size of the hard drive under settings, but this makes no difference.

  I am familiar with how to change the size of HD on VMWare Workstation images. It is similar to this or is there an easier way to do it?

  This image is an application server and I foolishly deleted the original of my laptop, so it's the only copy I have. So is there a way I can increase the size of HD on this image easily?

  Thank you.

  You have a backup of the virtual machine that you can go back?  It looks like something I messed up with the partitions during the expansion.

  I would try attaching the C drive of this virtual machine to another virtual machine and it turn on.  See if you can use diskpart to extend the volume or if he thinks he is already extended.

  For future use, with Windows Server 2008, you do not need assistance VM or even need to power off the virtual machine itself to develop the hard drive.  You can simply extend the space using the VI Client, and Windows Server 2008 has features to extend hard drive built in.  Goto, right-click Disk Management and select Rescan disks to see the new size of the drive.  Then right-click on the current partition and select "Extend Volume" and a short wizard guides you through the rest.  You can do it without interruption.

  What you can try is to reboot the virtual machine - see https://kb.vmware.com/kb/1026043 - (can ask to stop the virtual machine), or use vMotion to migrate the virtual computer to another host.

• Expand the size of the hard disk to the virtual computer

  My current VM HD size is 8 GB.

  I tried to to 12 GB, but got the message: these settings cannot be changed wile has a virtual machine snapshot.  To make these changes, first delete all snapshots.

  With Windows turned off, I went Virtual Machine in the menu bar, chose Snapshots in the menu drop down and deleted the Snapshot, I had.

  When I went again to increase to 12 GB, I got the same message again: these settings cannot be changed wile has a virtual machine snapshot.  To make these changes, first delete all snapshots.

  Return to snapshots; No Snapshots in the list, only the button to take a snapshot, but I can't always change the size of the disk.

  I'm missing something here.  How can I increase the size of the HD 12 GB VM?

  Thank you very much

  Meanwhile, I reason to assume that the text listing the string you gave me can be used in the terminal?

  Yes.

  LS - lAF Users/jiruifu/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm

  Spaces are used to separate arguments (then ls thought you to put it on a number of different files, which none exist). Or the other of the following should work:

  ls -lAF "/Users/jiruifu/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm"
  ls -lAF /Users/jiruifu/Documents/Virtual\ Machines.localized/Windows\ XP\ Home\ Edition.vmwarevm
  

  The two methods to escape spaces for ls include the path. A practical thing to remember is that if you drag and drop a file into a Terminal window, it will automatically enter the path with escape sequence for you.

• How to change Pavilion DV2000 hard drive? What brand/size of the hard disk works?

  I have a Pavilion dv2000 I bought in 2006 (waaay out of warranty).

  My current (original) hard drive is completely filled. It is 80 GB. Fujitsu SATA

  I tried to upgrade the hard drive me. I bought a Western Digital SATA 250 GB hard drive is cloning kit.
  The kit seemed to do what he was supposed to, but when it was time to put the new drive in, I ran into problems.

  Do not match the connectors on the ends upwards. Metal "teeth - like ' connector end face on the new hard drive instead of to the bottom." (I couldn't find another way to navigate the hard drive cradle to get the connectors to face down so that they connect with the rest of the computer.

  Predictable when I tried to boot up the laptop, it wouldn't read the new hard drive. So I put the old hard drive in and that's what I use now as I type.
  The old hard drive did not fit into the cloning kit which makes me think that this hard drive configuration is obsolete and this laptop can not be upgraded at all, which sucks considering how much $$$ I've spent on this equiptment upgrade...

  I can't find info on internal hard disk of purchases on the HP website. Anyone know what new hard drive will work in this old laptop?

  Thank you for helping!

  I found the answer. It turns out that my computer is so old that about a year after I bought it, HP changed the configuration of HDD on their laptops all line of Pavilion in the future. The HD config in my laptop is now part of a line that was interrupted for more than 2 years. This old line goes only up to into space at 120 GB if you can find an old still sold online. Retailers do not sell them more.

  And I can't use the clone HD product that I bought since my hard drive is obsolete and does not.

  So I'm pretty much stuck with what I have now. It's not worth the hassle. I'm going to do with this for a year (with an external hard drive), and then get a new machine.

  Please help guys!

• Change the size of the HARD disk volume

  I bought this computer so that I could use the highest GB because I have a lot of iTunes content, unfortunately because my disks are divided into drive(298GB) (Windows) C and D (Data) by car (297 GB) who completed the drive C (Windows) within 15 GB of free space, that I wanted to transfer on drive D (data) in order to release the C drive again However I don't know how I can do this and am not entirely sure how drive C as filled whereas on my laptop more small, I have a greater amount of free space, even if I have a smaller capacity of the C drive?

  Someone HELP Please

  The D partition is empty at the moment?

  Please don t make things complicated. You can use the entire capacity of HDD for data backup. With other words, you can use the free space on both partitions.
  If you have a lot of things go to the D partition, make new folder, something like music archive and move all the stuff from C to this folder.

  Later you can make settings in your iTunes to access these archives.

  If I've misunderstood something sorry and next time try to explain the opposite situation.

• The recovery disk is sensitive to the size of the hard drive?

  Hello

  I just bought my new laptop Satellite.

  I have owned one of these puppies before and so I know that the Toshiba recovery disc is a ghost image.

  What I did is erased the hard drive clean because it's a piece of the circuit city showroom and t couldn't trust what was out there.

  I put Ubuntu on the laptop. I want to put Vista on a VM.

  As you can imagine, the virtual machine would have much less space than the actual size of the hard drive (200 GB) but of course, large enough to accommodate the installation of vista and all the goodies of Toshiba.

  With this all said, the image will be cough, hanging and allows me not to install during installation of the ghost due to the different size image in space? So say the laptops hard drive space, it is 200 GB, but I only allocated 50 GB virtual hard disk.

  Now I don't have a version of the class my program of schools Microsoft vista legitimate business, but I would use the home premium came with the laptop and use that Toshiba had provided me.

  Then, going to work, or it will not?

  Thank you for your comments.

  > I wonder what the disc labeled "Toshiba recovery disk' which is come with my new laptop that I just bought actually is then.
  Don t confuse boyfriend new Toshiba with Vista OS notebooks are equipped with HARD drive recovery option. But it also contains an option to create a recovery DVD in case the HARD disk will fail.

  If you buy an old series laptop with Win XP, then it might be possible that you don t have the option to drive HARD recovery, but instead, you've got a recovery disk.

  As you said above; the recovery disk contains an image (I doubt it s a ghost still image) that contains an operating system Windows, Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software.

• Satellite A215-S7422: free space on the HARD disk decreases every day

  Hello everyone,

  Hi I'm alex.

  I've owned a computer laptop "SATELLITE A215-S7422.
  I got 147 GB of my hard disk drive memory, I got 119 free space but as I noticed it is constantly down even if I do not download anything.

  When I saw this first I try to get it back to the factory setting and I had 128 GB of free space, and every day it is significantly down.

  Everything I do is look at you tube.

  Can someone explain to me what is happening and what I can do about it...

  It would be much appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  There is a simple explanation why HARD disk space decreases each time while watching Youtube videos
  The video stream is always stored on the HARD drive in the internet files folder and in time.

  So from time to time, it would be desirable to remove these files and to clean the folder of files over time.
  I use the CCLeaner. It is free software and can be downloaded from different pages. Google simply
  This program is very useful. It cleans the HARD drive and removes the garbage all registry.

  You should test.

  Hello

  ·         Will there be any changes made before this problem?

  Step 1: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) drives, etc...) Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

  If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue. Then get any drivers\software update for the device.

  Step 2: Check the hard disk for errors.

  Follow the steps in http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Check-your-hard-disk-for-errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there is a risk of data loss you can take a backup of your files before you run the disk check.

• When installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system?

  Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

  Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
  Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.

  First run Memtest86 +:
  It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
  sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

• Increase the capacity of the hard disk for VM

  Hello

  I use ESX 4.0 with vSphere 4.0.

  When there is no snapshots more I would like to increase the capacity of the hard disk of the virtual machine in the menu to change settings / Hard disk. There is MS Windows Srv 2008 R2 64-bit installed.

  What is the right way to do it? Operating system, there is no problem with this increased disc? Primary partition will automatically increase as or what I have to do it myself later?

  There should not be problems with the guest operating system when you increase the size of the virtual disk. After the increase in size in the settings of the virtual machine, you need to resize the NTFS partition in the VM Windows 2008 disk management.
