Storage monitoring

Hello

I would like to know if there is a way to monitor the increase of records over time. For example, during a week of machinery space decreases 150 GB to 120 GB. Is there a way to monitor what files/records has increased this week. Right now I'm using WinDirStat daily to monitor the storage taking screenshots and comparing them.

Concerning

Mr. Green2U

There is a free app called treesize Jam software that will tell you what, when, and who uses the space

  • VMware vCenter Storage Monitoring Service fails

    Hi all!

    I have a problem with 2 Server vCenter (in bound mode). Do not start monitoring services of storage with the licensing of services...

    How can I start this service?

    At the service of vCenter status, I have an alert 7 (screen attached).

    VCenter Server 5.1.0 version; build 1064983.

    So, I find the problem in config file vcdb.properties to vCenter server (c:\programdata\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\). Have been exposed to the wrong type of data and the driver to use - replaced by db2 for mssql... and the start of the service. Thank you all for the silence

  • vCenter Storage Monitoring Service Service initialization failed after the upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5

    I recently upgraded from vCenter 5.1 to 5.5. After the upgrade, I started getting health warnings for the VMware vCenter monitoring of Storage Service that say "failed to initialize the Service." I restarted the vCenter server and restart services several times and who has not deleted the question. When I look in the SMS. LOG file there is no activity in it since I did the upgrade (a week or more there). All prior activity in the SMS. JOURNAL seems to be well upward until the upgrade took place though. I found at least half a dozen KB articles that describe the various reasons why this error may occur, but they all relate to older versions of vCenter. Just to be complete, although I saw the symptoms in the articles and none of them really seem to be the same as what I see. My hypothesis is that perhaps the SMS did not get properly re-installed upgrading because I don't see any SMS subdirectory in the directory \Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\tomcat\webapps but I do not know if this directory must exist on a 5.5 installation.

    If you would be grateful if anyone has any advice for troubleshooting for this type of error.

    Thank you

    Change the credentials of the service account for VMware vSphere Profile-Driven Storage Service to those used to start the VMware vCenter Server service and the service of VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices. By default, the account used Local System.

    Restart the service, the change was made, and then check.

  • SupportAssist for EqualLogic

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    My account has a SupportAssist from Dell, which manages about 100 servers, storage EQL 13, 9 PowerConnect switch.

    The system has also installed the SANHQ.

    So, the surveillance system has two software installed.

    1 OME and DSA plugin for OME

    2 SANHQ and DSA plugin for SANHQ.

    In this case, what is advised on EQL Storage monitoring?

    EQL also managed based on MEO and SANHQ.

    Hello:

    Best practice would be to use SANHQ with the DSA plugin for your EqualLogic storage space. This will give more specific triggers and will be also more flexible as new triggers are added in the future.

    In addition to the installation of the SupportAssist plug-in, be sure to activate the SupportAssist function in the SANHQ itself.

    Thank you.

  • audio interruptions every 30 seconds on WAV recording AND playback - computer laptop Dell 1545, Windows 7

    Recently (the last couple of weeks), my laptop Dell 1545 with Windows 7 started having a problem: when I record or reading any WAV file (or a file MPG or WMV video too by the way) with any application (I tried several), there is a stuttering or interruption every 30 seconds like clockwork.  I have tried everything and can't seem to fix it.  During playback, it causes a split second buzz or silent, on the record, missing just a fraction of a second of audio, leaving a 'leap' in the best stuff WAV audio recording.  The only changes that I made in the system in the past month have been a few updates to Windows 7.  It ruins any recording or playback, I try to do, and is very frustrating.  It does the same thing on the files that are years old and new files (reading).  If I burn these files to a CD or DVD, they play very well in the CD drive or DVD, is not a problem in the files (except those currently record during breaks).

    What I tried:

    Much, restart several times.

    Reinstall the driver for my audio interface, even if she did the same on the native sound card too.

    Download the new driver from the audio interface and install it.

    Back to the old driver, then again to the new.

    Tried to record from multiple sources, ditto.

    I tried recording through the native as well as audio interface sound card.

    Deleted 40 GB from my hard drive.

    Defragged my hard drive

    Off my anti-virus program

    Close all other programs other than playback of the file.

    All USB disconnected elements.

    Tried to plugged the charger and entirely on batteries.

    RAM tested.

    Tested CPU.

    Nothing has worked so far.

    Any ideas?

    DWasnich: I had the same problem as you yesterday after restoring my Dell Inspiron 1545 to factory image. Through process of elimination (as mentioned Gokul T) I was able to determine that one of the services was originally the audio and video to jump to 30-second intervals. I disabled the 'Intel Matrix Storage Monitor' service and solved the problem. Why this service was installed and running after the factory reload is confusing. This is one portable hard drive without needing a RAID System. I hope this has solved your problem too! Joe

  • Overview in vSphere Web Client?

    Hi community

    In vSphere Client c# , I had the chance to see an overview of all virtual machines and their snapshot spaces: home - inventory - warehouses and store data from cluster - storage tab views.

    By selecting my data center on the left, I had a glimpse of all the VMs on a data center and size of snapshot (on all data warehouses). See my attached screenshot.

    I just upgraded my vCenter to 6.0U2, so I did not tab views storage more.

    Does anyone know how to proceed with the Web Client vSphere? I don't want to check every vm or each data store but would like to have a similar overview of instant spaces of all the virtual machines on all data warehouses.

    Best regards

    Roland

    Version 6 does not offer this view more, see this KB article: VMware KB: The Storage Monitoring Service plug-in installs in VMware vCenter Server 6.0

    In VMware vCenter Server 6.0:

    • The selection of storage reports tab monitor an object is no longer available in the Web Client vSphere 6.0.
    • Tab views storage is no longer available in the vSphere Client 6.0.

    As I said before, you have the possibility to use RVTools or something like PowerCLI and vRealize Operations Manager, see this thread another talking about the same thing: the storage vsphere6 reports

    We were using display of storage reports to audit for forgotten shots. So far, there are some alternatives to see the snapshot size

    Use of Ops 1 Manager) and a heatmap personalized, note the Foundation (for some free version) does not have the feature. As we use Foundation, it is not an option.

    (2) RVTools - GUI based (easier for some) but pretty basic

    (3) PowerCLI - yup, get used to it. (get - vm | get-snapshot |) FT VM, SizeGB, created, name, Description)

  • Three questions.  The heart rate monitor now plays nice with the third-party applications?  Can you run these third-party applications, without the link to your phone?  How much storage?

    My experience with the original watch is that the heartbeat was working fine with apps in the House but does not work well with third-party applications.  Aboriginal health applications were sub par at best.  In addition, he wouldn't these third party apps (Strava), unless you were related to your phone.  A new doesn't do me much good if it is always the case.  Finally, it's great that you can bind your helmet now but what storage is the watch have?  I am not unrealistic, its understandable if its not much, but I hope that it is enough that a few apps and music enough to pass through a 4 hour tour.

    1 WatchOS3 made major changes in this area, and 3rd party applications get access to things like HR. OS3 also makes everything much more receptive. 3rd party applications will need to be updated to play with the HR monitor.

    2. you can run applications 3rd party without the phone with you, but for your type of application, you'll want a series 2 with GPS watch. The likes of Runkeeper OK working in the older shows, but without GPS, they do not really work you need. New - 3rd third party apps will need updates to work with the GPS watch. OS3 software has been available to developers for a while now, so I expect software updates only very quickly. I don't know if or when 3rd parties had access to the equipment and GPS devices, s, then it may be some while before they have series 2 updates.

    3. you can store 2 GB of music. How much music that is depends of course format and quality, but certainly several hours.

    Hope that helps

  • Foglight for monitoring EMC DMX storage

    The EMC DMX is not listed as a device in charge which can be monitored through Foglight. Has anyone successfully been able to use Foglight to monitor one of these devices and is there by any chance any type of documentation or guide that may give a glimpse of how it has been implemented?  Thanks in advance!

    The DMX product range seems to be gradually eliminated by EMC. Foglight for storage management does not officially support any of them, but they are sufficiently similar to CLARiiON and berries VNX from our point of view, you have the chance to their follow-up as well. We cannot provide support for this however.

    If you do not want to try, there is one thing that you should pay attention to: you must have version 4.6.2.3 or SMI-S Provider EMC 4.6.2.9 (inspired Enabler 7.6.2.26 Solution https://community.emc.com/docs/DOC-19629) installed. Later versions do not appear to support collection DMX arrays to all SMI-S.

    I hope this helps.

  • Need help to create a storage report/monitoring

    vFoglight V 6.1

    So our storage has been really slow lately by some of our virtual machine crawl. Whenever I talk to our team of storage, that they speak for EMC and the answer is BUY new more fast/drives or take VM off the LUNS are getting slammed. Well that's fine, but now I have a few LUNS with more space free 300Gig because they can not will not try and work with me to find a solution.
    I need to create a report and monitor my LUN so that they show that last year the "slowness" was getting worse. Just storage model reports show stats 'space' unless I'm not totally see models of storage performance.
    Y at - there someone here who can lead me in the right direction to create reports of storage/performance problems? Is there some sort of pre canned reports, I do not see or a 'cartridge', I'm missing here?
    I'd love some help here... Thank you

    Hello
    The reason why you get n/a, it is that the data do not exist. Queue length data are only available once we deployed agents OS like VMware does not provide this in a meaningful way (I am happy check if you can show me otherwise) monitoring. Disk latency information should however be available but only for the host ESX 4 and vCenter 2.5 U4 and later as this was the point where she became exposed.
    .
    I also encourage you to take a look at vFoglight storage, if you want to enter more deeply into the fabric of storage.

  • Monitor devices blackBerry Z10 - black except for the storage tab

    Hello

    My monitor of the device (from quick settings) is completely empty except for the storage tab. This means that battery, processor, and memory are all does not properly.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Each time a random strange behavior or slowness comes, the first thing to try is a proper reboot:

    • Pre-BB10 ONLY devices. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
    • Peripheral BB10. Hold the top button until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the unit to be completely stopped (for example, nothing appears on the screen, no lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red light. Wait through the entire boot process. If this fails, you can try the method of battery-pull above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.

    See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    Good luck!

  • vcops to monitor the storage lost path redundancy

    Vcenter, I'd have an alarm for called host

    'More redundancy of storage path'

    I'm moving all of these functions to vcops

    I tried to create a KPI KEY HT for this, and I can't find this setting.

    In addition, I wanted to create a heat map that I can see if all connections

    are broken and can not find this attribute type.

    Anyone know how to integrate this into vcops?

    You won't have a HT or KPI for it - it's a fault. This flaw is already a heavy weight against the health score for the host system resources. You cannot make a heatmap specific defects, but you can make a heatmap of the host systems and view the badge | Score of fault, which will include your flaws. Then maybe have an Alert widget, so that when you click on the host system in the heatmap, interaction will spend this resource in the alert widget, with the defined alert widget to display only the defects... and there are go.

    I have a MacBook Pro 2013 with Retina display, 4 GB DDR3RAM, 128GB PCIe flash storage, 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 and Intel Iris 1536 MB of graphics card. I plugged in two Acer H226HQL views by using two Mini DisplayPort / VGA adapters. If my MacBook is in charge, I usually just close the lid and the display will always be displayed on my two monitors. Whenever I take it on the charger, the monitors just to go to a black screen and I usually find myself having to open the lid slightly to use my monitors. It is very annoying and inconvenient.
