Space required to apply a snapshot?

We have a server that is thin-provisioned and performed 32 GB when we created a snapshot to upgrade everything went very well so now want to do perms of changes by deleting the snapshot, however capture files instant two are big 18.67 GB and I only 13.7 GB free, I should get 4 GB when I stopped the virtual machine as used by the swap file give me about 17.7 Gb space is sufficient to remove the snapshot?

Meant we use ESXi 4.0 and this is the free license.

  • Instant space requirements

    Hello

    I have a few questions on space for a virtual machine snapshots including an 80G hard for hard Windows OS and 500G for data. We use the VSphere 4.1 and VSphere 5.

    1. how much space is required for the instant 80 G or 580 G?

    2. If the .vmdks are on different LUNS will be snapshots stored with the virtual machine configuration file?

    Thanks for helping clear this up.

    As mentioned previously, a snapshot can grow up to the size of certain overhead costs as well as the basic disk. Regarding overhead, take a look at table "Load calculation required by the snapshot files" at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1012384

  • I can't install iTunes 10.7 to Windows 7, 64-bit, install stops at the space required with miscalculation: restoration of action

    Original title: I can't install iTunes 10.7 to Windows 7, 64-bit

    I tried to install iTunes 10.7 on my computer, but it stops when the installation says: calculation of space requirements. Then he said only: "roll back the action", "installation failed." I don't know what is happening because I have more than 40 GB of free space on my hard drive. I also tried with an older version of iTunes, but it keeps doing the same thing.

    You can not install itunes while another update that uses the microsoft windows (MSI) Setup program is running.

    what you need to do is:
    update of windows OS and restart.
    install itunes to a partition with at least 250 MB of free space.

  • Attempt to determine the space required for the migration of the opening...

    Hello:

    I'll put together a plan to migrate from Aperture to Lightroom.  My research is coming short on a particular issue... If I use Adobe plug-in to convert, if it changes the file system existing opening, thus converting the Lightroom folder structure?  Or, is, in essence, "duplicate" files by creating a new set for Lightroom and leaving the intact existing opening?

    If it gives all existing files, I'm fine.  If it is redundant with, I have to approach differently - since my opening set is about 400 GB, and I have about 100GB left on my drive.

    I've almost worn out G for Google tries to find an answer.  Your help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

    PS I posted this on the General discussion of Lightroom, but I have received no feedback.

    The migration tool calculates the space required before continuing. It really depends on if your Aperture library is managed or referenced. In the case of a managed library, your images will be get duplicated in order to protect the opening of corruption. See this link for more information:

  • Calculate the disk space required for the INDEX

    Hello

    How to calculate the disk space required to create an INDEX? Please tell me where I can get the details of resources.

    For example:
    I need to create a non-UNIQUE INDEX on the columns, an approximate size would do.

    < PRE >
    NOT NULL DATE EVENT_DATE
    APPT_DATE_SLOT VARCHAR2 (15)
    EVENT_STATUS VARCHAR2 (4)
    < / PRE >

    The table has some 7 300 000 rows. I would like to know how to calculate too.

    All AIDS are very much appreciated.

    A rough estimate of the index space will need is possible by

    adding the actual length expected from each column, plus 6 for the rowid, 2 for the number of the X-header of the rows in the table that will be so an entry

    Date are 7 bytes internal + 15 + 4 + 2 + 6 = 34 X 7.3 M = 248200000 X General fresh for the block header, initrans, etc...

    We will use 20% overhead block or 1.2 X 248200000 = 297840000, which is about 285 M

    The actual distribution will vary according to your method of range tablespace.

  • How can I determine the amount of disk space is required to remove a snapshot of peacebuilding assistance, then a fret?

    I have a 27G vm running on Fusion 2.0.1 - the Mac OS X file system has only about 15 G of free space. I want to shrink the vm disk to release ~ 10 of unused space (which was initially to unpack a large SQL Server db that has since been removed in XP), however, I am unable to use tools to decrease because there are snapshots and cannot remove the last snapshot - when I try I get the error: «unable to clean deleted files» : There is not enough space on the file system for the selected operation. »

    I read other associated messages and understand how the snapshot deletion process works (stolen turns into the existing vm before be deleted). I tried a solution of possible workaround I've seen described elsewhere - creation of a new snapshot, and then remove the existing (old) snapshot and try to remove then the new snapshot - however, which results in the same error. If this procedure fails, a snapshot of the 'Consolidation of assistance' is sometimes created.

    I think that error indicates that space is insufficient on the Mac file system, is that correct? The 15G is not enough. If so, is there a simple rule that told me how much free space will be necessary?

    I think it's a darn good reason to buy a bigger hd faster for my Macbook - but thought I would ask first

    Thanks for your help - much appreciated.

    It depends on.  IF you have created your virtual disk as a monolith, then you need at least as much free space as the defined maximum size of the virtual drive.  If you created it as a disc of 2 GB-Split, then you need a little more than 2 GB of free space.

    How much space Foxfire requires for downloading? How to operate optimally?

    For the storage of these figures are somewhat obsolete. The binary is about 35 MB uncompressed after installation, it's about 60 MB and depending on the amount of storage available on the device it will use 2 to ~ 60 MB for implementing caching of downloaded files.

  • 16 GB of free disk space required to upgrade?

    I have a 80 GB drive partitioned and C: has 3 GB of spare, I would like to upgrade to windows 7, but it says I need 16 GB of free disk, Vista is already using 22 gb - if I upgrade to I win 6 GB or is windows really 38 GB because none of my partitions are that big. (E: a 22 GB of spare I put windows on both Partitions?).

    I tried to resize the two partitions by using disk management C: offers the possibility of reduction of the score but the expand option is grayed out.

    Windows 7 32-bit requires 16 GB of free disk space
    Windows 7 64-bit requires 20 GB of free space on the disk

    In fact, Windows 7 does not use that amount of space, but for the actual installation, Windows 7 will store some files temporarily to help with the installation. Disk space actually used by Windows varies from 6 to 10 GB, depending on the edition you are installing.

    You can try to free disk space by running disk clean up and remove old system restore points. You can also try clearing your temporary files directory:

    Click Start, type: folder
    Press ENTER, delete the contents of this folder.

    Additional details and instructions for the release of disk space:
    How to speed up your Windows 7 system:

    You should try to uninstall applications you do not use and move files you use for example videos, photos on an external hard drive, you could do temporarily, then restore them after the installation of Windows 7.

  • Space required on the server vCenter for statistical level increased

    I'm in vCenter Server and this is the SQL database on separate virtual machines.  I have size my SQL database for level 2 of the statistics.  What is the size of the disk hard virtual on my server vCenter Server must support statistics level 2 to 3000 VMs and 150 physical servers?  I know that the main impact of the size of the disk is SQL Server according to the requirements not vCenter to because the VCDB database is stored on my SQL Server in this case.  However, if a major impact is to increase your level of 1 to 2 on virtual disks of vCenter Server statistics? (I have already addressed vCPU and needs of vRAM and prepared for this, I just need to look at the disk space now)

    Thank you!

    You're right, the size of the database will be the primary component that is affected when you increase the level of statistics. I don't see any impact on the vCenter Server disks.

    How long lasts this string? ++

    So, in other words - it depends. Development environment might include a database logic dev (containing data from prod), one database Q & A logic (to test changes in dev) and a complete copy of the prod database logic (to test the final deployment).

    It could contain an R & D environment - where all data from prod is necessary for data mining research and then to deploy processes of extraction of useful data in the production.

    It could be used in a number of ways - and some of them will be more intensive in the transformation and requiring more data, than the production.

    Ideally - dev environment should look like as close as possible to the prod environment. Ideally, that means a server hardware and similar size, same o/s and Oracle versions and same volumes of data.

  • Space required by float

    Hi guys,.

    Just as char (n) can store maximum n bytes of storage, number (p) can maximum ((p+1) / 2) + 1 bytes of storage, then the amount of maximum storage space taken by float and float (n)...

    Please suggest...

    Thank you

    Hello

    The FLOAT data type is a subtype of NUMBER. It can be specified with or without precision, which has the same definition for NUMBER and can vary from 1 to 126. Scale cannot be specified, but it is interpreted from the data. Each FLOAT value requires 1 to 22 bytes.

    Oracle database provides two types of digital data only for numbers to floating-point:

    BINARY_FLOAT types is a 32-bit, single-precision floating point number data type. Each value of type BINARY_FLOAT requires 4 bytes.

    BINARY_DOUBLE is 64-bit double-precision floating-point number data type; Each BINARY_DOUBLE value requires 8 bytes.

    Take a look at these urls for more details.

  • space requirement: this library file to move?

    Hi all

    I have all my photos on Mac and on my backup unit

    Last year, after buying my new MacBook, I did some work to migrate from old to new.

    Now I need free space on Hd on my Mac and my/images folder I have these files:

    -' Library foto' gb75 (also I can see in my Photo, last update settings now)

    -"iPhoto Library.migratedphotlibrary' gb47 (updated: October 13, 2015)

    -"libreria di Foto" gb5 (update now)

    Logically I could remove the 47 gb file.

    But in my picture, there is a folder ("eventi iPhoto", 9000 photos inside) imported from my old iPhoto (and Mac)

    I wouldn't want to delete the old photos.

    Please give me an advice.

    Thank you :-)

    -"iPhoto Library.migratedphotlibrary' gb47 (updated: October 13, 2015)

    It's your old iPhoto library.  The modified file name extension '.migratedphotolibrary' indicates that this library has been upsized to Photos and your largest photo library will contain all uploaded photos.

    Then you can move the iPhoto 'Library.migratedphotlibrary' on an external drive for backup.  All the photos in your photo library will continue to work. Pictures created its own copies of image files.  However, they are stored very efficiently as hard links to the originals in the old iPhoto library.  Delete the iPhoto library can not free as storage space that you expect. See this document: Photos saves disk space to share images with your iPhoto or Aperture - Apple Support libraries

    But in my picture, there is a folder ("eventi iPhoto", 9000 photos inside) imported from my old iPhoto (and Mac)

    This folder in your photo library will continue to work. Migration Photos tp copied all the pictures in the library, but very effective to save storage.

  • Space required on target RT for LabVIEW Control design and Simulation

    Hello

    I want to run a DLL file on an RT target using LabVIEW Control design and Simulation, but I'm not sure of the required amount of RAM on the RT-target. My RT-target options are respectively cRIO 9002 and cRIO-9004 with 32 and 64 MB of RAM. Is this a sufficient amount of RAM to run the simulation? ¨¨

    Thanks in advance

    This will depend on the size of your dll, the size of the rest of the code, you can create other necessary drivers/modules, memory use when your application runs, etc.

    9002 and 9004 have not a lot of RAM on them and the minimum software installation to run a control application Design & Simulation (CD & Sim) will take around 22Mo of it (the majority of RAM available to the 9002). It would be possible to run your application on these two controllers if you keep it small but it will depend on what you want to do.
