Some measures of the disc missing from the performance statistics since the update of U2 vc5. 0

Hello

Since our update of VC 5.0 vc5. 0 U2, the following metrics are not cumulative for past day/week/month/year plus:

Average requests per second of reading virtual drive-

Virtual disk - average writing queries per second

Virtual disk - read latency

Virtual disk - write latency

Stats in real time for these metrics are fine, as well as more historical data before the update.

vCenter is installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2, database VM: Oracle.

I saw this problem on a VC 5.1 improved VC 5.0 with local MS SQL DB.

Have these metrics out of historical performance data at all?

Anyone with similar problems?

Kind regards

Michael

What is the level of the collection on? If 1, try 2 or 3 and check?

    Hey. I am a newbie in this forum. And I really like to make my PC more 'me' even though my parents and brother told me that my PC did not differ from how difficult. But, I still like my PC... ^ ^
    But my PC encountered a problem in my birthday (March 8, ehehe just FYI). Its a terrible birthday gift: (...) Oh, there. Its all started when I accidentally install a skin pack or win 7 in my PC 8 victory. There is nothing wrong with installing proggress except a notification which inform on win 7 Starter has not installed correctly. :( Well, I ignored, first. But after I have it reboot, my dekstop went all black but it still can open the Task Manager. And then I try the system restore. It did not work properly. The only thing made worse. Somehow, my "(le seul compte dans mon PC) DELETED account." In fact, the log on screen consist only of the ease of access and power button with backgorund optomistic. Where are the data of the user, I mean a place where we inserted the password? XC its make me super bad mood. And after some restoration system with various restore points, I restarted my PC in safe mode successfully. Yippie, its worked perfectly in safe mode. I created a new account in safe mode. I thought that my problem more but no. and the bad news is that there is only one user account (a new one) in the journal on the screen! It'll be better I have the new account very well work, but it didn't! The dekstop always all black with no taskbar and it's the same problem as the first.

Please, help me. His will probably be my MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT to a person who I know in internet. If you need something detailed about my problem, ask me. I need your response. :") SURE ME MY CRAZY MOM, IF SHE KNEW IF I AM WRONG IN MY PC AGAIN.

    Oh, there. The explorer.exe does not start in normal mode, but it works fine in safe mode. Also, I discovered that the disc is missing from the Task Manager. :) Help?

    Wish you a very happy birthday, Damaris.

    Of course, I can understand the situation you're in right now, and it's a shame. I will be happy to answer your query and try my best to offer my help as a gift for your birthday.

    Let me ask you;

    1. What happened when you tried the system restore?
    2. What was the last time that the computer worked well?
    3. What security software is installed on the computer?
    4. Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?

    The issue may be due to any dispute of third party software, virus or any system or missing files / corruption. Let's try the methods below and check the status.

    Method 1: Since you are able to start the computer in safe mode without any mistake, I you suggest to start the computer in safe mode and then perform the clean boot to avoid software conflicts.

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode (as you are able to start the computer in safe mode with the steps you tried).

    Step 2: Perform the clean boot

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

    Method 2: Run Microsoft Safety Scanner

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Microsoft safety scanner

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Note: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 3: Run the tool File Checker system in case where any system files are missing or corrupted.

    System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

    Enter in the right edge of the screen and then click on Search. Or, if you use a mouse, point to the corner bottom right of the screen, then click on Search. Type the command prompt in the Search box, right click invite, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Note: Not close this command prompt window until the audit is 100% full. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is completed.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • URGENT: Need to flashback table, how to find SNA for quite some time before the update that's happened?

    Hi all

    I have a new database 11G, I haven't used before flashback, but my retention time is a day... I have once the developer did a massive update to a table to corrupt.

    How can I find the RCS for this time so I can try this table of flashback?

    Thank you

    Cayenne

    Thank you.. I also found that it works:

    SQL > select timestamp_to_scn (to_timestamp('20140103152000','YYYYMMDDHH24MISS')) SNA double;

    SNA

    ----------

    98344246

    Although does NOT work all the time. But that's just what Oracle when you give him a timestamp to flashback to: it converts the timestamp of a SNA and then restores the data based on the SNA.

    See table of Flashback in the language SQL doc

    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_9012.htm

    TIMESTAMP CLAUSE

    Specify a value of timestamp corresponding to the point in time to which you want to return to the table. The expr must evaluate to a valid time stamp in the past. The table will flash back to a period of about 3 seconds to the specified timestamp.

    This precision "3 seconds" is because of this conversion to SNA - Oracle uses its internal table.

    YVERT is accurate, if you know, but you typically do not have.

    Read and consider these warnings in app dev guide advanced

    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/AppDev.111/b28424/adfns_flashback.htm

    Guidelines for Oracle Flashback Query

    . . .

    General guidelines for Oracle Flashback Table

    . . .

    • For querying the latest data at a specific time, use a SNA. If you use a timestamp, questioned real time can be up to 3 seconds before the time you specify. Oracle database uses the SNA and assigns them to the timestamps to a granularity of 3 seconds.

    For example, suppose values SNA 1000 and 1005 are mapped on the timestamps 08:41 and 08:46, respectively. A query for a moment between 08:41 and 08:45:59 is mapped to the SCN 1000; an Oracle Flashback Query at 08:46 is mapped to the SNA 1005.

    By reason of this time-to-SNA map, if you specify a time slightly after a DDL (such as a table creation) Oracle database operation can use a SNA which is located just before the DDL operation, causing the error ORA-1466.

    Original title: Windows Update will not install on the new load XP

    Hi all

    Thanks for your replies.  Sorry I didn't answer sooner, but he got late last night, and I got to reregister the Qmgr.dll and Qmgrprxy.dll BITS files.

    I clicked Start, click on run and typed the command following, and then click OK:

    Start, run and in the run box, Type regsvr32 qmgr.dll, click OK.
    Start, run and in the run box, Type regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll, click OK.

    I was then able to start the updates.  There are 124 updates, the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update for versions of .NET 2.0 to 3.5 (KB951847) x 86.  He downloaded 124 updates, but even once asked me to insert the disc for qmgr.dll when he was installing the 10th update.  I find the qmgr.dll file again and pressed OK, but it seems to hang forever and do nothing, then I simply cancelled updates and closed during the night.  I have been relieved to have solved the problem of BITS, but is concerned by the hang up on the tenth update installation and he called again for the qmgr.dll file during the installation of updates.

    This morning, when I rebooted, it installed some updates at startup, and I restarted again.  He then held I first install the .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update for versions of .NET 2.0 to 3.5 (KB951847) x 86 to date.  N BITS issue for that.  It took time, but completed settle.  Restart again and now there are only 21 updates to high priority required.  My guess is that he downloaded all 124 updates last night, but when I cancelled the installation after hanging on #10, he just started to install it again this morning and did so successfully.

    However, when I try to install the 21 remaining, he has not once again, and I find that the BITS service is not in the services again.  After I have re-enter the BITS service and restart it, the downloads are working again.

    I am now what I may need to reinsert and restart the BITS service whenever I need to download an update.

    Ideas, suggestions or comments?  I am slowly solve problems and if I persist, I can get this all taken care.

    Hi Dan,.

    From what you wrote, I understand where you are getting confused. Here are the steps to follow to solve this problem.

    Open the Windows search tool, copy / paste the following text, and then click Search: qmgr.dll

    Research should show this file in the following locations:

    C:\Windows\System32
    C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\bits

    I hope they are all present, follow these steps to register the service.

    Click on start, run and copy/paste: regsvr32 qmgr.dll and click OK
    (If you do not have the command run in the start menu, hit the Windows key + R, instead)

    Do the same with this file: regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll and then restart.

    Here are the next steps.

    Copy / paste this command in the field to run, and then click OK
    %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\inf\qmgr.inf

    Windows will launch a dialog box asking you to insert the Windows installation CD. Ignore this and change the way downstairs to C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386

    The reason to change the path to the i386 folder is that the files that are there are newer than those on the Windows installation CD.

    Then restart the PC again and continue with the rest of the troubleshooting steps.

    Click on start, run and copy/paste the following and click OK: services.msc

    You should now be able to see the Background Intelligent Transfer Service, or just "BITS" displayed in the list of Services.

    Double click it to open BITS and then click on the Start button. This is just a test to make sure that it works correctly.

    If you get 2 error: cannot find the specified file, click on start, then run again and copy / paste the following command, and then click OK:
    Tracking Add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS\Parameters /v ServiceDll /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %windir%\System32\qmgr.dll

    Restart then try and start the BITS.

    If you get the same error again, copy / paste the following text in the field run and click OK:
    Reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup

    Reboot once more and then try and start the BITS.

    Let me know how you please.

    Original title: Administrator group of experts.

    On the Admin Panel when I want to close I normally press start and the "closing". However the button turn off disappeared and only shows button "quit". In addition the 'run' button is gone as well. How to restore it back to normal?

    It will help with these situations... and, this lesson, I've added a few new commands to my answer of registry file generic copy/paste for these kinds of things:

    If you see things like this:

    You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
    The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
    System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
    The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
    The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
    The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
    The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...

    The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

    If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

    You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

    Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

    If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

    The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

    You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

    No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

    If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the registry editor, System Restore and the command prompt, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

    These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

    Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

    What it sounds like, is that Windows creates a new user with admin access account and then migrate parts of your data on. This is probably due to corruption on the part of your "old" user account

    My suggestion, rather that to re - install all your programs, would be to simply make a copy of your desktop shortcuts and drag them into the START > all programs >... destinations.

    If you need find the shortcuts for some programs, we can tell you where programs actually exist in Windows. Let us know exactly what it is you are missing and we can see if we can help you.

    Regarding Microsoft Office, you can find the actual programs by visiting here:

    1. click on START
    2. click on 'my computer '.
    3. double-click on "disk Local (c)"
    4. double click on "Program Files".
    5 double click on "Microsoft Office".
    6 double-click on "Office12".
    7. find "WinWord12.exe", right click and go to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
    8. find "Excel.exe", right click and go to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
    9 find "PowerPnt.exe", right click and go to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
    10. find "Outlook.exe", right click and go to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
    11 go ahead and find the rest of the Office applications in this folder. Follow the same instructions as above. Most of the Office applications have some identifiable names (such as Microsoft Access = Access.exe)

    Let us know if this helps,

    Thank you! Ryan Thieman

  • Program volume control missing from the taskbar.

    MY VOLUMN CONTROL ICON IS MISSING FROM THE TOOLBAR. I TRIED TO CHECK THE BOX IN THE CONTROL PANEL, BUT IT'S ME GIVES AN ERROR MESSAGE "YOUR VOLUME CONTROL PROGRAM IS NOT INSTALLED" I FIXED USING XP DISCS, BUT IT IS NOT YET HERE. THIS IS PART OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM. I HAD ALSO LOST MY CALCULATOR AND GAMES. I HAVE RE-INSTALLED CALCULATOR AND ACCESSORIES SINCE THE ORIGINAL DISC GAMES ARE BACK BUT STILL NO VOLUMN CONTROL.  ANYONE KNOW WHAT THEN?

    The sndvol32.exe file is one of 3498 files that are monitored by the Windows File Protection System (if it works).

    Assuming that your volume control was previously working and you have uninstalled not really things...

    Even if you manually delete c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe, Windows File Protection should quickly and silently substitute a backup copy and put a message similar to the following in the XP system event log:

    Event type: Information

    Event source: Windows File Protection

    Date: 16/06/2010

    Time: 11:57:49

    Description:

    File replacement was attempted on the protected system file c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe. This file was restored to the original version to maintain system stability. The file version of the system file is 5.1.2600.0.

    See the date and time of this event?  I just deleted my file sndvol32.exe moments, and it is replaced almost instantly (no necessary CD in XP), so so he could go "missing" in the c:\windows\system32 folder and it must be replaced would require an effort unless something is wrong (which it probably is).  You can only delete even on purpose.

    Calc.exe is similarly - it requires some effort or other malfunction so he could come in fact really missing which means that something is not somewhere - if it worked before.

    Why don't search you your system for the file and see if it is in c:\windows\system32 or not.  If it's not and it worked before, you have another problem or something is wrong.

    Before you try to replace the file that should never be missed in the first place, you must first of all decent scanner for malware (since this problem with the sound control panel is such a common condition of malware),then when the scans are complete and clean, difficulty of problems.

    Do a few scans for malware, then when it's over difficult problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
