• ODI file data store

  Hi all

  I have a confusion about the physical and logical length in the ODI file data store.

  I have a fixed-width file where a c2 col had datatype as string (30).

  I've set this column in the data as string store > physical length 30 > logic length 30

  My interface failed with error as '.

  ORA-12899: value too large for column 'S0_IDM '. «C$ _0S0_EAGLE_DWHCDC_CHRG_MST ".» "" "C2_CHARGE_DESC" (real: 31, maximum: 30).

  When I increased the logical length to 255, the interface worked fine.

  Being always the same 30 physical length.

  How different is it?

  Any help on this will be appreciated.

  Thanks and greetings

  This isn't the official documentation, but here's my point of view, after a few moments of reflection

  Everything you do in the ODI Designer is inspired by the logical architecture. Only when running it manifested in a physical implementation i.e. connection strings are materialized etc. When you perform an integration ODI creates usually a few temporary tables prefixed with C$, I$ etc to be able to perform the necessary data movement and the transformations needed to, for example, to fill a data target (table) store. In your example, your flat file is materialized in such a temporary table before that its content is manipulated (or not) and loaded in the target data store. When ODI generates this code that he uses the logical length emitted in the DDL that generates temporary table column lengths, the physical column is ignored.

  Now in your scenario is not a problem as constraints such as these do not matter to the physical file version knowledge if you were to write to the file, that it would not matter if you wrote return 255 characters or 31. This could be a problem if you were using database tables and varying the logical vs physical lengths but generally you reverse engineer tables from database using ODI rather than manually doing so makes better.

  Anyway, in short, I think that the logical lengths should be taken as representative which will manifest itself in the materialization of the temporary objects used to manged / transform the data from the source models (tables$ CAN) and target (I have tables$) while the physical lengths indicate what the underlying physical representation of these models are in reality.

  EDIT: after reading some logical documentation actually represents the length while physics is related the number of bytes required to store the data. Therefore, you could have a situation with multibyte characters where the physical length could be greater than the logical length but not really the other way around.

• Unable to display data from a csv file data store

  Hi all

  I'm using ODI 11 g. I'm trying to import metadata from a csv file. To do this, I have created physical and logical diagrams corresponding. Context is global.

  Then, I created a model and a data store. Now, after reverse engineering data store, I got the file headers and I changed the data type of columns to my requirement and then tried to view the data in the data store. I am not getting any error, but can't see all the data. I am able to see only the headers.

  Even when I run the interface that loads data into a table, its operation without error, but no data entered...

  But the data is present in the source file...

  Can you please help me how to solve this problem...

  Hi Phanikanth,

  Thanks for your reply...

  I did the same thing that you suggested...

  In fact, I'm working on the ODI in UNIX environment. So I went for the record separator on UNIX option in the files of the data store tab and now its works well...

  in any case, once again thank you for your response...

  Thank you best regards &,.

• Data store / latency issues with HP ProLiant DL380 G7 - controller HP Smart Array P410i after disk 2014.09.0 SPP / hpsa - 5.0.0.74 update

  Hello

  We are currently investigating massive data store and the problems of latency of disk (mainly READING) on some of our HP ProLiant DL380 G7 with P410i (BBWC) controller.

  It all started after our half of regularly updated cycle for ESXi 5.1 U2 to:

  ESXi510-201407001 (no problem)

  -hp - esxi5.0uX - bundle - 2.1.1 - 2 (no problem)

  -HP-HPUtil-esxi5.0-bundle-2.1-15 (no problem)

  -hpsa - 5.0.0.74 (pilot) & SPP2014.09.0 (-assigned problems)

  It is not a permanent increase in the latency of reading, but rather meeting points that trigger alerts of Veeam. Store of data read latency increases about 5 MS to 100 ms as soon as this happens, but after a few seconds, everything is back to normal. These data warehouses special are RAID5 (but we have also seen some alerts on RAID1), having read and write cache enabled and the most affected machines are those with the LOWEST its use.

  We have a few WinServer2012R2 RDP for a small number of sessions (less than 5) - there is no noticeable delay on work on these.

  Maybe someone of you knows a similar behavior after you apply the updates of HP ProLiant servers. We don't have any idea on what to try next, a SPP restoration is not possible, maybe the pilot, but we find the correct predecessor, as the old drivers of 2014 HPSA leads the Group on the host computer.

  Best regards

  HZ

  Hello

  most likely, you have already solved the problem... I did some research and was in contact with HP. It is a problem with the driver hpsa - 5.0.0.74. It occasionally crashes when used with P410i. In the papers, you can find "WARNING: LinScsi: SCSILinuxAbortCommands:1843: failure, pilot hpsa to vmhba0. HP knows talking and working on the new driver. As a workaround, you can use hpsa - 5.5.0.60 (at least it works well for us).

• Swap File question?

  Hi guys hope can help.

  I P2V had a server ESXi 5.5 using the latest VMware converter and kept the the VM Version to 8.

  When I try to start the virtual machine, I get the following error:

  Cannot create the file ' / vmfs/volumes/5391ca58-87a88951-cf0d-2c44fd8a9f40/vmx-AMLSERVER.aml.local-2469954544-1.vswp ': not found

  Not able to start VMX: msg.vmk.status.VMK_NOT_FOUND

  I have ssh would be vmfs/volumes / and run the ls command, but there is no reference to "5391ca 58-87 a 88951-cf0d-2c44fd8a9f40.

  The data store must be "53a1a9b3-d8a2c8bd-0df9-2c44fd8a9f40" because it is where lives the virtual machine.

  I tried to add the following line to the VMX file sched.swap.dir = "/ vmfs/volumes/53a1a9b3-d8a2c8bd-0df9-2c44fd8a9f40/AMLSERVER.aml.local/" but after the addition of the virtual machine to inventory even once, I still get the error above?

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance.

  Nevermind I figured it

  Virtual configuration--> the location of the Machine Swap file--> change--> store of the swap file in the same directory as the virtual machine.

• Complete data store during data transfer

  Hi all

  I'm having a serious problem with the ability to store data, if I transferred a huge amount of data to a virtual machine through SSH. The data store has a total capacity of 511 GB. During the process of transfer of the virtual machine stops, just when the data store is full. So the only solution is to detach other virtual machines from the data store, but it is not enough.

  We are using VMware ESX 3.5 and virtual machine is Ubuntu Server. Here is the configuration of the virtual machine:

  Memory: 1024 MB

  Processors: 1

  HardDisk1: 6 GB

  HardDisk2: 52GB

  HardDisk3: 230GB

  HardDisk4: 256 GB

  Storage distribution and capacity for the VM:

  # df h
  Size of filesystem used Avail use % mounted on
  / dev/map/vg00-VG00_ROOT
  3.4 G 2.6 G 621M 81%.
  No 495M 220K 495M 1% / dev
  No 500M 500M 0 0% / dev/shm
  No 500M 524K 500M 1% / var/run
  No 500M 500M 0 0% / var/lock
  No 500M 0 500 M 0% / lib/init/rw

  / dev/map/VG02-VG02_home_dpto
  479G 219 G 236 G 49% / home-Dept.

  HardDisk3 and HardDisk4 are mapped in a (VG02-VG02_home_dpto) LVM volume and its free space is 236 GB. Space free Dtx200: 4, 56 GB. I don't understand why. The problem may be caused by automatic generation VMDK:

  * ficheros00.platform.core.vmdk-> 6 GB

  * ficheros00.platform.core_1.vmdk-> 54 GB

  * ficheros00.platform.core_2.vmdk-> 241 GB

  * ficheros00. Platform.Core.-000002.vmdk-> 24 GB

  * ficheros00. Platform.Core_2 - 000001.vmdk-> 166 GB

  The first time, I got 20G of free space of the data store removing some residual VMs. Then I tried to copy a folder of 15 GB through the network by SSH from another server in files. It was the occupation during the first use: (just to compare)

  * ficheros00.platform.core.vmdk-> 6 GB

  * ficheros00.platform.core_1.vmdk-> 54 GB

  * ficheros00.platform.core_2.vmdk-> 241 GB

  * ficheros00. Platform.Core.-000002.vmdk-> 10 GB

  * ficheros00. Platform.Core_2 - 000001.vmdk-> 164 GB

  It seems 000002.vmdk and 00002.vmdk develop during the transfer of files, but they do not consolidate data. I don't know whether this is a normal behavior. I think that space used for ficheros00.platform.core-000002.vmdk-> 24 GB and ficheros00.platform.core_2 - 000001.vmdk-> 166 GB should be included in the ficheros00.platform.core_2.vmdk - > 241 GB and end of data transfer that they should disappear themselves.

  We calculate the initial free space before allocating hard disks of the virtual machine.

  In this data store, we currently have 2 VM:

  [root@hp585-01 eva4400:-02] # du-sh ficheros00.platform.core./
  472G ficheros00.platform.core

  [root@hp585-01 eva4400:-02] # du-sh lucus01.labo.core_1/
  36G lucus01.labo.core_1

  Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

  Best regards

  Log files, I see that capture files two instant belong to basic disks on the two different data stores on this host ESXi 3.5 Update 3. In any case with being thick implemented basic disks, you should be able to delete snapshots in the snapshot with off the virtual machine Manager. If the virtual machine is still on when you delete the snapshots, you need more disk space for another, temporary snapshot (snapshot to help consolidate)

  When you have removed before snapshots, you did this with the virtual machine power on or power off?

  Turn off the virtual machine will be to free up disk space (the .vswp file is deleted) and merge data from snapshot (with only a single snapshot per virtual disk) in basic disks should not require additional disk space.

  Because the Snapshot Manager doesn't show pictures anymore after the failure of the attempt, you will need to create a new snapshot (to activate the button 'Clear all') and hit use 'delete all '. Because of the size of snapshots, it may require some time to merge data in basic disks, so be patient, even if the GUI user expires!

  André

  PS: Please check that the second VM on the data store does not work on snapshots too, who could fill the data store so that you remove snapshots of the virtual machine in question!

• Add virtual machines to a data store while changing the name?

  I am trying to create a virtual machine in standby (or more, I do not have a final number) in a second datacenter.  The goal is to have a copy of a group of virtual machines updated once a week as a relief.

  I'll use our SAN replication to keep them up-to-date, so once a week, I stop all virtual machines in the data store, remove them from the inventory and remove the data store.  Then on the side of SAN, I'll create a new copy of the data store, then add this data store to vSphere.  We will do a few rounds of network to ensure we have not any change in the network that should be taken in the virtual machine.

  The only changes to the virtual machine that needs to be done, are changing the vSwitch is logged in, that I understood, and to rename the virtual machine, either before being added, or when it is added.  Since it is a copy of a virtual machine running, I'm not able to add all virtual machines to the new data store.  I need either change the name of the virtual machine before being added, or when it is added.  All I have to do to change the name is add something like - backup at the end of the name of the virtual machine.

  Is it reasonably simple way to do this?  It seems that he was promised that we could do that and now I need to find a way to make it work.

  Thank you

  You can search the data for the VMX store you want to register a script like the one you'll find in VMX Raiders revisited.

  To change the name of the virtual machine, you will need to replace the line that contains the New - VM cmdlet with something like this

  $newName = $VMXFile.DatastoreFullPath.split('/')[1].Split('.')[0]New-VM -VMFilePath $path -Name ($newName + "-backup") -VMHost $ESXHost -Location $VMFolder -RunAsync

  Ricard Sir please correct me if I m wrong.

  Yes, it's more or less what will happen, however all guests will have its own file of heartbeat on the datastore (s) of the heart rate and will update those every second. If a slave disappears from the management network that the master will look at the file of heartbeat of the slaves as a kind of "second opinion."

  If the file is intact too he will declare the slave as dead and VMs were revived.

  If the file is always updating the master knows the slave is alive, but isolated from the network. It will depend on the response of Isolation strategy what's going to happen.

• Find files on the data store that have been removed from inventory, but not deleted from the disk

  I have ESXi 4.1 and with vSphere Client to manage virtual machines.

  Some of my users continue to use the 'remove from inventory"rather than the option" remove disc "in vSphere when they want to delete the virtual machine.

  This leaves the computer virtual on the data store but not used. I have since removed this privilege among the offending users but I need to do a bit of cleaning.

  I have a lot of files on the data store where users have done this in recent years. Probably about 150 records but only 80 VM listed in the inventory.

  Is there a way I can output, a report showing the data of each machine store directory in inventory so that I can remove anything not on this list? ID rather not to manually check the parameters of all 80 VM in the inventory.

  Out ideal would be something like:

  MyVmNameHere 1, \MyVmDirectoryHere1\ [DataStore1]

  MyVmNameHere2, \MyVmDirectoryHere2\ [DataStore1]

  A great tool to discover all this and much more is RVTools

• Move the location of the VM swap file in another data store

  Hi all

  Was in a task to move the 1000 to the file location of VM swap on another data store which is newly assigned to Exchange us to the existing store database file that will be decommissioned.

  Eager to check if anyone has made movement swap of VM location of the files to a data store to another and that all measures taken to move.

  Require some VM downtime?

  Thanks in advance a ton.

  Yes it is possible without interruption of service to virtual machines.

  1. make sure that your cluster is configured to use swap data store specified by host

  2. take a host in the cluster in maintenance mode, change the location of the VM configuration file to point to the new data store

  3. do this for all hosts in the cluster

  When you vMotion a VM from one host to another the swap file will get moved to the new data store. Later when you take guests to the maintenance and return output mode, vMotion occurs for each computer in the cluster virtual and file is moved.

• General issue of file on why my data store has 3 files with a _1 and _2

  OK, I'm a little new to this thing of VMware, but I was the main actor in this migration and have been the building and move all our servers to our ESX 3.5 with a back-end SAN platform.

  I did well until this weird thing, that I think that I understand, but I just don't know how to solve, or how it happened.  And right next to the bat, no I did not the instant code with this server... those that have been cleaned in the time there... Now

  My situation:

  I have virtual machines that are created equal, that they all have a 'C' drive for the operating system on another dedicated "LUNS for OS Storage" and then they have their readers of 'd' of the newspapers "SQL" on a dedicated LUN in mirror, and then the 'E' drive is on dedicated aonther "LUN DATA.

  If all servers have 2 or 3 LUNS associated with them. That's how the SAN engineer and I designed it. OK works great.  Until one day, I noticed that I was shy about 40 GB space on my SQL LUN. Took time but I think I found the culprit, but I don't know how to solve this problem, or if it will break my dose. So here I ask you all.

  One of my servers called "Server01" has 2 drives associated with it and supposedly 2 / 2 data warehouses, or even what he had initially when it was built in August!

  Now, the operating system data store is fine.

  When I'm on Console V and I click with the button straight on my server and go to his 'change settings' is what I see:

  SERVER01of properties on the "change settings of ' Advanced ' your drive hard 1" to the appropriate LUN and all the VMDK and those files are there. ""  (IE OS LUN 10)

  But "hard drive 2" pointing to the right LUNS (IE SQL LUN11), but his record is called "server01_2"?  What?    She was built and given a hard drive on this LUN, but the name of the folder is wrong.   So I'll browse my store data and low and this is, I have 3 files with the same server name (IE... ( Server01, Server01_1, Server01_2 ) OK so what happened? Why? How? and how in the heck can I get my space back 40gig?

  I checked records the name of the original server, as well as the other files on the data store with the numbers in the annex of _1 and 2 and they have all VMDK files in it... of course dates on all the VMDK files are different and I guess that since the server points to the folder called + "SERVER012" + and its VMDK file has the most recent data buffer on this subject since the last Vmotion We did it, he must then use this folder.

  OK great... but now that messes up my folder structure, and if this server does not use other VMDK files and folders he ate up to 40 GB of my precious space!

  I'm pretty sure when I went on vacation last year, because it is the time of the timestamp on the VMDK files in older records and "dates of the task of the procedures as" trying to clone, suspend, model, reconfgure, snapshot "etc. that the other members of the team tried to do something, which lead to my having 3 files on my store of data with 3 VMDK files in them.?  Nobody seems to know or remind us what it is they are trying to do... great... Well...

  I just want to know + If the server points to a folder called "Server01_2" and it has the most recent date stamp on this subject, can I then rename other files? + and then I can delete them?   And if I successful, how can I get my server to have the name of the correct folder again?    Instead of a * _2* on the end of it?

  Any suggestion would be great!    I learned the hard way that if your VM operating system is built and pointing to a file with a specific name, and you try to rename it to match the server, your operating system does not start!. LOL I hope that is not the case with a folder that has a 20gig assigned to HDD with oner VMDK file in it...

  Help!

  Thank you

  DAWNE

  No problem.  Cold migration allows you to move all your files in a data store.  You can use svmotion to move disks to different LUN, but the syntax is somewhat more complex.  The help option shows exactly how to move a machine virtual disk at a time.  Basically, you can move a disk with the config file, so basically, you move the config file and the disk of your choice in the data store that you need.  Move back the config for the original data store file, then repeat the process with the next disc.

• How to remove an extension of data store (while keeping the files)?

  Hello world

  I am looking for a way to move/delete an extension of my single data store. My data store consists of 2 extends from ~ 150 GB each. The data on this subject would be inserted in the Go ~ 150 remaining.

  Is this possible? If yes how? ESXi automatically rearrange the data to avoid losing data while dropping an extension?
  
  

  Thank you

  Robert

  It is not possible to remove a measure and keep the original data store.  You must move your data, delete the data store and then re-create.
