Space backup issues

.. .or at least that's where I am right now.  I finally managed to convince management to go virtual, so we picked up the Essentials Pack for the 50% price sweet.  Now, I need to study backups of our virtual machines running hot.  My head is spinning a bit because of all the info re: DR, VCB, backup, scripts, perl, etc.

After paying $495 for the vSphere 4 Essentials set, I doubt that my boss would be happy with a $2,000 + backup solution to backup a critical server.  Someone at - it guidance on backups affordable hot which does not need to be a Linux expert?  I looked at Veeam, vRanger connection and doctorate, but all of their Web sites are filled with impenetrable verbiage.

Anyone running a hot simple backup that doesn't cost a lot of factors above which costs of VMware?

Thanks in advance,

Bill

  • Backup issues after upgrade to iOS10

    Dear users of Apple,

    I updated my iphone 6 more yesterday with iOS 10. Phone works quite well. But I have my phone backup problems. I usually back up my phone with my iTunes Macbook (Via cable and sometimes on wifi). But after the update to iOS 10 it seems that I can't back up my phone more. I don't know the real cause of this problem.

    1. I am not able to save my iPhone via wifi data in iTunes. (Previously it was not the case).

    2. I tried to back up my phone using the cable also. Also, I pressed "Trust" this computer, but I get this error message. Please see below.

    Also, I allowed my computer by disconnecting iTunes and logging back there. And yet I have the same issues.

    "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an invalid response was received from the device."

    Does anyone know what this answer is invalid can be?

    Do I have to change the settings in my phone or iTunes?

    Help please!

    Thank you very much

  • Code signing/backup issues

    I am preparing to release my application and want to ensure that, in the future, I can issue regenerations and upgrades even if I have to rebuild my machine (Windows - it is not unlikely that).    I would also like to be able to build on another machine (my laptop) if necessary.   Does anyone know exactly what are the critical files/files to back up?   Is as simple as ensuring sigtool.p12 and then installation under new SJC RIM files?

  • Newbie Backup issues

    Hi all! Recently, I used VMware Converter to clone 2 PDC Windows 2000 with the aging and equipment programs of proprietary database of 2 new 2003 servers running VMware Server 2. The conversion has been impeccable, vmware tools imitated everything needed to permanently keep the virtual machine, the areas are beautiful, and users have not yet noticed 1 hiccups! It has saved me MANY HOURS of trying to get all the software of Windows 2000 running on Windows 2003 server, so I am very happy!

    Now, I was faced with the backup of my new virtual machines. I have a 1 to NAS I want to copy my virtual machines on every night. I found an article that showed me how prepare the Server 2003 and VMware to backup using VSS, but then he never told me how or what to back up my vm folders!

    I read in this forum that all you have to do is to copy the entire folder that runs the virtual computer from a backup location.

    Firstly, is it that simple?

    Secondly, should I be save indvidual files instead? If so, which? I have a created snapshot, I just save that?

    Third, I read in the same discussion that the virtual machine must be off to save properly, how can I stop/restart the virtual machine without supervision (night).

    Finally, is it TRUE freeware that can handle this? I see "solutions", but either they are part of a package of VMware are 3rd party software that is not free or is no longer available.

    I apologize if I'm not phrasing or explain sufficiently in detail. I will be happy to clarify anything.

    Thank you in advance for your help! I went through the discussions and I know I'll get a straight answer from the quality.

    1 'cold' is used to indicate that the virtual machine is turned off.

    2 I suggest you copy all the files. You can re-create the VM since the larget vmdk (+ the snapshot files), but if you save the 99.99% of the entire space, why not the other 0.01

    3. If you are using VMware Server: http://www.petri.co.il/virtual_script_startup_shutdown_vmware_servers.htm

  • on windows 2003 (GPT disk) backup issues

    The system is Windows Server 2003 R2.
    We have a storage device for data that are using RAID6 configuration.
    Recently we have expanded the capacity of the HARD disk.  Before the upgrade, each hard drive was 1 t, whereas it is 2 t after the upgrade.
    Type of drive HARD precedent is the MBR (Master boot record), the NTBackup was fine.
    After the upgrade, we have changed the type of disk to GPT (GUID Partition Table).
    But a problem occurs. The NTBackup does not work.  Error massage parlours: waiting to retry cliché.
    NTBackup supports the GPT disk?
    Everyone kindly give some suggestions to solve this problem of backup?

  • reload backup issues

    I bought a copy of Windows 7 with a bad product so key to make a long story short. I made a backup before loading Windows 7. I reloaded Vista Home premium 64-bit at the beginning to start again, but I'm having a problem charging backup set. I put the backup to a hard drive, if that helps. I'm getting some errors 1) is not read a backup on the computer 2) when I do a restore advanced from hard disk (all files restore) he repeats to me 'backup file is not found. Please help, I'm in Afghanistan with the very slow speed of the internet to download more programs in addition to all of the info that I will lose (MS Office 07, Itunes, Axara) thank you Jason

    First of all, if you have Vista Home Premium you have not the possibility to use Vista to make a backup of the complete image of your system (unless you use some 3rd party sofware - If Yes, what is the name and version of the software), so that your programs have not been backed up and will need to be reinstalled.  It goes the same for your settings and configurations.  Your data must be secure, if you did a full backup - but that's all that was saved with the backup version that you have.

    You may need to select restore from another computer (instead of from the hard disk) to get the backup files - it depends on how the hard drive is attached (it is internal or external) and how you made the backup.  You are at least able to locate the backup files?  Go to the drive where you put the backup and make sure that the backup is there and that it contains data.

    This is the best article I know about backup and restore Vista: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx.  Make sure you use the procedures in this article.

    Here's another good article: http://netsecurity.about.com/od/secureyourwindowspc/ss/vistabackup.htm.  Note that you must click below to get more pages there is a certain.

    Make sure that you are logged on as administrator and have sufficient rights (or even owner) do the process (both on the PC itself AND the backup folder).  Here are some tips on how to fix permissions if this is the problem:

    ==========================================================================================================

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/

  • The color space Conversion issues

    When I edit a photo in Lightroom and then the export as jpeg, I get some major color shifts. If I convert to sRGB for web use, a red dress becomes a much brighter red. Adobe RGB conversion gives a red cooler than sRGB but still brighter than the red in Lightroom. The tone of skin and other similar colors are also affected. At first I thought it was due to my external viewer (IrfanView); but when the results were the same in FastStone, I came to the realization, that have to do with conversions out of Lightroom. It is a major issue for me because if I produce a jpeg for a client or on the web, I can't rely entirely on what I see in Lightroom as a representative of the final product. Even a ProPhoto RGB conversion does not exactly match the image of Lighroom, although it is the closest. Is there a solution to this problem?

  • ORACLE_HOME on best practice database backup issue

    Hello
    The next question is about best practices.
    I would like to know if the ORACLE_HOME on the physical database should have the same name
    as the basis of primary data.
    For example, if the primary database name is: / u01/app/oracle/prodcut/1120/PROD
    According to best practices should also be: / u01/app/oracle/product/1120/PROD or it should be:
    / u01/app/oracle/product/1120/STDY?
    Thank you

    Yes.

    Given what you just said I agree that is the way to do it. So when patch arrives, you should be less likely to make a mistake.

    I probably create a 'home' of the decoder sheet and hung it near my desk.
