Space in use SAN HQ alert 4.2 on volume
I've recently been reconfiguration of EQL (1 PS6100, 1 PS4000) customers. As part of the cleaning and modernization of the former ESXi environment, virtual machines were vMotioned storage of 4000 to 6100 and the4000 reset, reconfigured and added to the 'new' group began with the PS6100.
The PS6100 is RAID10 and in its own pool of storage, the PS4000 RAID6 and in its own pool of storage. The PS6100 has a single TB 5.5 thin provisioned volume (total available is 5.75 to), the reconfigured PS4000 has a single 4TB thin volume (total available East of 5.66 to).
About halfway through to storage quick vMotioning of PS4000 to PS6100 VMS, SANHQ began reports 4.2 warnings of space on the volume of same PS61000 if running in Workgroup Manager of space in use for the volume and the pool was only about 2 TB with him remains marked free. Once the PS4000 has been revamped and its created volume and about 1.1 to migrate back, this volume has begun to take a 4.2 errors as well.
SanHQ reports 4.2 errors, the two volumes now that more than 99% complete, even if the Group Manager shows as much less complete volumes - the PS6100 is about 70% full, the PS4000 only 30% full (volume, pool is only 20% full).
My understanding of thin volumes with VMware is that they grow only represented by how much space has been consumed by the upstream file system (for example, VMware VMFS) and "shrink" only if manually unmap you them (VMware) or run another operating system that automatically cancel the mapping.
That being the case, none of my thin LUN EQL never showed more than 70 percent use of space (maximum) and some never more than 25% maximum, than even San HQ throws 4.2 errors. Why?
Hello
It is a known issue with SANHQ v3.1. The next version should exit this month this will resolve this error. There are several other threads here discuss this issue. For now, turn off the alerts is best work around.
Kind regards

Where should I go on my computer to find the pie chart that shows how much space is used/left on my computer... (my question is not related to the questions at the beginning).
Open my computer, right-click the drive icon, select 'Properties' and you'll see the pie under the general tab.

Recovery of space on DellEqulogic SAN
Trying to reclaim space on my SAN and runnign the VMKFSTOOLS command and not having a chance. I'm going by KB 2014849 and the syntax seems simple, but not luck.
I go to the Volume which is having the right question and run the following command, VMKFSTOOLS y 60
It returns the message cannot retrieve the params for 60.
Here's the command/vmfs/volumes/52483e89-cdd6959c-e9e2-d4ae52a2f118 # vmkfstools y 60
I'm doing something wrong? Any help is appreciated
You are runnning vSphere ESXi 5.5? If so, the vmkfstools y command is obsolete and has been replaced by the esxcli storage vmfs mapping undo.

How to check disk space total used by virtual machine
Dear team,
I rec was a demand of the customer, he ask us to share the total disk space used by a virtual machine. I don't have any credentials to the total used space of control to verify. Is there a way I can check the disk space total used by the virtual machine offline.
Note: we have implemented a virtual machine with the thin disk.
concerning
Mr. Vmware
When you say that you have no credentials, I guess that this is designed for the guests, rather than to the ESXi hosts/vCenter Server operating systems! You can see the disk space used in the data store browser, executing CLI ls-lisa or by using a tool like RVTools third 3rd.

Is there a way to see the disk space actually used against provisioned size 3.5?
Hi people,
I don't know that this has probably developed.
I need to find the amount of real disk space is used by the virtual machine rather than its set size in service. I make this point to the direction for the upgrade to Vsphere 4 by using a provisioning.
Y at - it a script/app that could do it quite easily.
Kind regards
Rick
RVTools is an excellent tool for ESX Admin to have and he has a lot of features, you can enjoy and Details of the data store is also part of it. Check out great tools free http://www.robware.net/

How to fill space by using a formula
I'm trying to create a space between the 2 values will be stored in a derived property.
Scenario of
Name: product
Descr: Products of the company
Derived property: name of the Descr: products of company product.
I have integrated a space using the Concat function, but it is not generating this space, don't know if it's because as the "remove spaces" box checked on the window of the formula. I would like to keep this market and still get a space between my name and Descr... Any ideas... what I'm missing here?
Thank you
TDThe "remove spaces" is checked by default, so the system will remove the spaces unless you uncheck the box. Unfortunately, whenever you view the property, the box gets checked by default, so if there are many people who look at one/changing the properties, the chance of properties with spaces is very high and in some cases will cause malfunctions in the property.
What should I do to avoid this situation is to create a hidden property called SPACE which has a default value of a space. Then, every time I want to put in place a space I use Propvalue (Space) and I don't worry about someone looking at property and spoil my spacing.

ESX brings more free space than does SAN
I have a student who has an ISCSI SAN Dell EqualLogic PS400E and ESX 3.5i servers using VMware software initiator. They observed that formatted with the VMFS LUNS show different amounts of free space if you view ESX or SAN. The SAN of reports more LUNS are low on space but ESX reports that there is a good bit of free space on the data store. The variation of the reports may be as much as 50 GB.
Anyone got any ideas on why this can happen and that they should look to reconcile the differences?
You can find an old thread on this argument.
It's true: Equallogic indicate less space than ESX, but the reason is simple...
EqualLogic can't VMFS and how it works.
Know only the block marked as used (which may be free or unused in VMFS).

The Apple Watch can be used as an alert entry during sleep?
My daughter has big crisis badly during his sleep. Would be the Apple Watch can alert via a change in his heart rate to let me know that she is having an epileptic seizure? Thank you.
Hello
The ability that you have described is not a feature of Apple Watch. Also note that the important safety information include:
"Apple Watch, heart rate sensor and Apple Watch apps included are not medical devices and are intended solely for purposes of fitness. They are not designed or intended to be used in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, or to cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of the disease. »

While keeping the foregoing in mind, you can follow the evolution of the SeizAlarm application. The developer States:
"Once Apple allows substantive monitoring of movement via the accelerometer in the Apple Watch itself, we will then add the ability to make detection through the watch that will be a much more accurate detection method."

I need help with disk cleanup, please.
Note: If you try to free up disk space, Disk Clean-Up is not the only way to do it. Ask if you want more ways to clean up your drive diisk.
Addressing your question, the disk cleanup cannot free a lot of space if you liked - it varies the amount of temporary files are on your PC. If it doesn't increase disk space, it is not a major problem.

In the space of use exceeds the warning limit
Several of my volumes on my PS 6100F & berries EqualLogic X indicate the space use exceeds the warning limit. VMWare has plenty of available disk space when these volumes. I know a few KBs of reappropriation of disk space on the thin-provisioned berries but they are not very intuitive and I hesitate to tackle the problem without an idea of someone who might have already been through this.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
Hi Dave,.
Side note, you'll want to upgrade to 7.1.4. There is a problem in this version and it restarts the CM after 248 days of runtime. There are some other important fixes since 7.0.1 as well.
Re: Cancel. I do not understand what you want to accomplish, I wanted to make sure that anyone who bed he that understands that the warning that he's trying to say. Some customers will keep expanding the size of the volume to drop below the 65% threshold that can drive available.
This KB is the correct way to make the process of unclaim.
You must enable SSH access to a node, then the quick change of node root in the store of data that you want to retrieve.
#cd vmfs/volumes /.
The VMKFSTOOLS there will create a file on this data store which is the size of the volume percentage that you specify.
If #vmkfstools y 10 on a volume of 100 GB will create a 10 GB file, then run UNMAP command for these 10 GB with a value of blocks. It cannot select a block that has already been used, but a new and unmap it.. Therefore, you may need to run this several times.
You can start with 50%.
You want to make sure that you do not create a file that is larger than your free space currently. As reported by ESXi, not the table EQL.
Kind regards

I'm trying to erase my drives and have a clean reinstall of Windows 7. Endless hedges have attempted to quit of me, whose latest is my drive C is not able to use the unallocated space that was once my D drive (now deleted).
I am interested in disk management and you can see my drive C, BDEDrive (I don't know what it is and can't get a straight answer on it as of yet), unallocated and free space (I do not understand the difference between space and unallocated space) in that order.
I want a big C 1 TB drive, but can't seem to extend the C drive currently because it is grayed out.
SOLVED!
[for reference]
It's also easy to move the startup information in the BDEDrive and giving the computer reboot, and then delete the BDEDrive. After that, the free space can be deleted (it becomes unallocated) and all unallocated space can be swallowed up by the C drive now that the option "Extend Volume" became available. -
Capacity risk details shows that I care by 3 436 VMs in a new cluster that has 21 total to 17 TB of usable capacity. Buffering value + 20%. The cluster itself has more than 7 TB of free space. Anyone know what could be the cause to be so bad?
You use allocation model, a more conservative estimate, for cpu/mem/disk. For stamps, you have 50% pads for cpu and mem. You also do not have approval for the disk or memory. Basically, they are super conservatives measurements, so much so that I would consider it usually unrealistic (yet you have 50% of buffer for mem, no overcommit and aid allocation model... is not business sense to have all this sitting deliberately unused memory). Run a report of virt mem CAP, or simply go the summary for the cluster/datacenter/world view... you will see where are your constraints. You will find that you need to adjust your config policy to be more realistic given your current % use of your environment... lower your pads, increase your overcommit, or disable alloc model and use ask model... any combination of these will get closer you to the real world.

HI -.
I was wondering - is vCOPs a product that can alert and monitoring, in addition to being a tool of use/capacity analysis?
Since then, we have 8 or so vCenters, we would use vCOPs to generate action alert for most standard vcenter alerts. Is this a proper thing to ask vCOPs to do? It seems much better to have a monitoring/alert tool to do this and then try to make sure all vcenters have commonly (and correctly) snmp Configuration and alert thresholds and actions.
Your opinion please!
vCO = vCenter Orchestrator
Yes. We found in vcOps alert management configuration is cumbersome. The virtual appliance provided by PSO the process a bit easier with a front-end user interface, but really, it should be as easy as configuring alerts in the user interface of vSphere
