the storage SAN boot configuration

• Sizing the storage SAN and RAM

  Hello

  I intend to install a VView infrstaructure into our existing environment VI. We currently hold 21 ESX host and we intend to use 4 of this virtual host ESX to run jobs for a call center.

  We'd start with 140 thinclients (Wyse or SunRay) and I begin to get an idea of the minimum requirements of storage I need. I would use the technology of cloning related.

  My figure is really simple:

  140 posts Vista running applications office and IE only.

  Our ESX hosts are HP Proliant BL460c blade with two quad core 2.66 Ghz proc, they currently have 16 GB of RAM installed.

  Is it realistic to predict a simple requirements as follows:

  RAM: 140 x 512 MB RAM: 70 GB of RAM spread over three ESX

  SAN: 140 x 15 GB = 2.1 to

  Agreed!

  Less Ram, fewer resources, less use of the drive, better compatibility...

  We keep round 200 vm per lun for our VDI, but this depends on how you have your set up storage space and the table itself (if it is capable of it).

• Boot Configuration data file - knows how to solve the need advice that no one shared

  Hello Daniel,.

  Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

  According to the description you get the error Boot Configuration data (BCD). I totally agree with you that, in order, to rebuild the Boot Configuration data (BCD) we need the installation media.

  If you do not have any other computer to create the installation media, then it is best to contact the manufacturer of your computer instead to buy Windows from outside. If your computer is under warranty, they can provide you with the ERD free of charge or at minimal cost.

  If you manage to organize other computers or repair disk, try the steps below. You can try to create installation media by following the steps described in the article mentioned below.

  To create installation media Windows 8.1

  • Boot from the DVD of Windows 8.
  • Click repair your computer.
  • Click Troubleshooting , and then select Advanced Options.
  • Click on command prompt and type the following commands and press enter after each command:

  Bootrec /fixmbr

  Bootrec /fixboot

  Bootrec /rebuildbcd

  • Restart the computer.
  • Check if the problem persists.

  Get back to us with your question was last updated. We will be more than happy to help you.

• How to configure the BIOS to boot USB on Satellite A50-110?

  Hello.
  I own a Toshiba Satellite A50-110 and I have a USB bootable Flash drive, but I don't know how to boot from the USB key.
  I guess I need to access and configure the BIOS. How can I do? Where can I get information on this subject? What are the steps to perform this task?

  Hello

  As far as I know in the BIOS cannot be configured anything. As much as I now on this old notebook you can use just USB floppy for boot drive (U key at startup), but not the USB flash drive.

  Enter BIOS settings with the ESC key at first upward and check that all listed bootable devices.

  How do I solve this problem

  Hello

  Assuming that it's just a problem with the recovery media, here's another solution, you can try.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( it must be the same version that originally shipped with your laptop - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium, that is the file you need to download ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly file on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Image is - Digital River.

  Images of Windows 7.

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• Hard drive erased, now receive the error occurred trying to read the boot configuration

  I erased my hard drive but when I restarted my computer, it said that there is an error then produced than that to read the boot configuration, I tried to use the windows vista download recovery disc but when I turned on my computer nothing the same thing appeard. HELP PLEASE!

  * original title - I erased my hard drive but when I restarted my computer, it said that there is an error then produced than that to read start configuration.*

  Here's how to use the Vista startup repair disk. is NOT a Vista reinstall disk.

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  How to reinstall Vista:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

As I said before that my laptop came with Windows 8, and it is not a dvd player.

• Windows 8 will not mistake The Boot Configuration Data file is missing some required information.

  Yesterday, I downloaded Windows 8, and although using it was confusing I got the hang of it. Today, I used the computer again and everything was fine but then I stopped him and a few hours later, when I turned it on a blue screen appeared and he says:

  Recovery
  Your PC needs to be repaired
  The Boot Configuration data file is missing some information required.
  Leader: \Boot\0xc000000d
  OT: After victory. Download 8 it won't launch
  I have no idea what is happening or how to fix it. Any help to help me understand and solve this problem would be appreciated.

  Met the same question from one day to the other - re install Win 8< week="" old="" decided="" to="" misbehave="" on="" a="" reboot.="" nothing="" untoward="">

  In any case discovered that the automatic startup repair is less useless for me. He could not fix anything whatsoever after the diagnosis and just gave up.

  However, resort to repair (start your windows installation CD) command line prompt, I managed to solve it with the command of the ffg on the command line.

  Bootrec /rebuildbcd

  More info about bootrec available using your favorite search engine.

  for example, this site was useful for me

  http://superuser.com/questions/451277/missing-boot-files-in-Windows-8

  For users in previous posts with problems and have only a version downloaded to Win 8 - well I'd say that you yourself create a DVD of the version uploaded to win 8 - the installation program ask you if you want to create media - that will create a 4.x GB. ISO file that you can burn to DVD. There is enough information on how to do this just search online.

  With regard to creating a way to initiate Win8 installer from USB Eh well I heard the ffg tool works with Win 8 too but cannot vouch for her since have never tried so its at your own risk.

• B200 M4 SAN Boot with attached local disk

  Hello

  I have a B200 M4 blade want to do boot SAN in the storage Bay. The blade has a local disk. I need maintain disk local and would like to bypass for the start of SAN. When I set up a 'political Local Disk Configuration' using 'No Local Storage"as shown in the screenshot, and when I associate the blade with a service profile, got the error:"server does not meet the requirements of local drive of the service profile". I did some research and tried a BIOS policy that can disable the SAS RAID config, but it did not work, still getting the same error. See the screenshot of error and politics of BIOS. Advice to solve this problem?

  I use UCSM 2.2 (3f).

  Appreciate the pointers.

  Thank you

  Braven

  If you just want to bypass the drive during startup, just don't include in your startup strategy.

  No need to disable the onboard RAID controller.

• ProLiant BL460c G7 iSCSI SAN boot

  Hello
  I'm looking to start a single ProLiant BL460c G7 of our HDS iSCSI SAN and then install ESXi 5. The blade has no local storage. The SAN is already in use by the cluster of our production.  In the iSCSI SAN config guide it States to set up storage so your host has access LUNS. How can you do this if your host is not installed? How can I configure the LUN to only be accesed by my hosts IQN name when I don't have an IQN name yet? What I must first install ESXi? I'm obviously missing something any help would be great!

  This is true, for this, but as your correctly point out if the OS is not installed how do you have a software iSCSI initiator - boot from an iSCSI SAN is supported only if you have an initiator of independent hardware installed in your ESXi host.
