Thin provision VMs does not only not with sVmotion

Hello - I have a number of VMs who have changed their functions and things and have plenty of space I want to re - claim them. I did used sdelete - c for all readers and the BONE is visible all the free space. I have about 5 virtual machines that I do this with and up to 2 worked but 3 has not even after 2-3 sVmotions in another data store.

Of course the 3 who do not work are greatest where I need more space in too, what is plan B if sVmotion does not work? Is there a reason why some virtual machines would work and some would not work? I need to recover the place of these virtual machines to complete the raid level migration, I'm trying to make.

Any help is appreciated-

Thank you

I confirm that I see the same behavior in my environment as well. Using Storage vMotion to another store of data with a different block size thin on the disc, but going to a store of data with the same block size is not...

  • Why to the can't 'Shared VMs' does not allow to share folders with the host and why the copy/paste does not work on them? :-((

    I want to put in place a "build mini-server' for our team. Since VMware Player is not taken in charge more I had to use VMware Workstation, and with some success, I put things up. But now more and more surface of trouble!

    To enable auto-start for the virtual machines, they must obviously be "shared." But it looks like, with this, the nuisance that these virtual machines cannot share folders more with the host. And also, it seems that copy and paste does not work with these "shared VMs.

    Is there a work around to get these features also works with 'shared VMs?

    It is VERY annoying and tedious to always have to these VMs to shuttle between shared and non-shared mode just to be able to transfer data or new versions of code for them!

  • Satellite Pro 2100 - works does not with 2 sticks of RAM

    Hi all

    I've been with sticks of 2 x 512 MB RAM from a reliable supplier that reassures me that this RAM is compatible with the SP2100 laptop.

    With the two sticks installed, as soon as the machine is running, I get no display and 5 beeps (1 long, a follow-up of 4 short beeps). Each stick of RAM work well individually, and I also tested slot A and b. Thus, the 2 sticks of RAM are working alone and work the two slots. It seems that this machine has a problem with 2 sticks of RAM.

    The ACPI BIOS is up to date (v1.40). I also tried the old 256 MB stick with one of the new sticks of 512 MB - same problem. I tried this as the supplier of memory mentioned this Toshiba may take only 1 GB maximum.

    Any ideas why two sticks of RAM does not work?

    Thanks in advance and amicably.

    James

    Hello

    You are right. The laptop must be able to manage memory 1024Mo. (2 x 512 MB)
    Due to your description, I think that both modules are compatible, but cannot play together.
    In my opinion, you should use two modules with the same specifications

    Try to use the modules recommended by Toshiba;
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51)

  • Active state with menu manual not working does not with child pages

    I created a horizontal menu manual on my master page with two links (at WORK and about me). I did them manually as it was the only way I could work out how the style and the menu items to distance as I wanted. I created an active state that works for the main page WORK and the about me page.

    However, I have four child pages under the work, but when you click on one of them that the active State for labor (a green line under work) does not appear. When I return to the menu options to try to "solve" the problem and choose "All pages" all child pages appear in the main menu I want and does not solve the problem. I chose manual that I could put the line to show that under the term of WORK and not all field.

    Here is my Web site to demonstrate the problem: www.robertgreens.com

    Any help to fix this would be appreciated with gratitude!

    I managed to solve this problem (with the help of Live Chat Support). I needed to create an autour work and provide a 'normal' State which resembled the active state, so when you click on the pages of the child, it looked like work page parent menu (with a green line) below. This meant that I had to duplicate master page and do the same (deletion of the green line in the menu of work) for the words Me page. And now, everything looks the same: www.robertgreens.com

  • HCIBench test VMs does not start

    I ran HCIBench successfully in the recent past against a VSAN data store and a HP StoreVirtual data store, now I'm trying it on some hardware Nutanix to compare, but running in the questions. I know that DHCP is working because the VM Auto-Perf-tool picked up one address, but when I run a test, the test VMs starts not in their operating system.  Just after contact with the DHCP server, it gets a "no received startup file" as shown below.  The DHCP server also does NOT show the leases issued to test virtual machines.  Any one see this before? Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Just to finish this point, I don't check that HCIBench cannot be run on hardware with shared storage on ESXi Nutanix Nutanix.  I found myself just to create some VMs VDBench and executed manually VDBench, I just lost out on the OWL as automated hcibench of deployment and communication of the cool results, but at least I get my test results.

  • JDBC connection does not with ORA-12514

    Hi all

    I also have problems with the connection to the DB CARS because the listener does not recognize the name of the service. I read many messages from the forum itself here and elsewhere and I just can't understand it. Everything seems in order, so I'm a little confused as to why it does not work.

    Thus, some specifications: I actually use SAP as advanced application to connect to the DB.

    DB is RAC 11203, two nodes.

    OS: Linux RH6

    Headphones and remote headphones are a race to the top.

    JDBC connection string fails:

    I check that the service is available in the cluster:

    ORA. < dbname >. myServiceName.svc online on physicalhostname1

    When I check the status of the listener on node1 he mentions the MYSERVICENAME downstairs so it's here

    That's where. The database is running.

    I am spent days on this and I am unable to understand. I tried to re - register the name of service to SIR with lowercase, uppercase. In fact, when I joined the service I used capital letters, do not know why crsstat it shows always lowercase. Also in sqlplus I see lowercase. I do know that if it's case sensitive at all, but shows the despair that I really tried everything. I think that the fact that I am using SAP is not serious as long as any application - what is uses the thin JDBC connection string.

    Help, please.

    Your JDBC connection string requires a service MYSERVICENAME. WORLD, it should be MYSERVICENAME.

  • Distributed form works does not with hotmail or gmail

    Sorry, if this is in the wrong place, but desperate to find an answer. (This form is about to circulate among a few hundred grade 12 students, who will have a wide range of messaging options.  We have students do not have difficulties to send this form)

    I have a form, distributed, sent people to fill out the form (test first) and submit.  Which I will collect in the entering e-mail response file.


    Some fill out the form, send, he calls the window to use gmail, hotmail or office.  They select Office/outlook sends exactly according to the needs. Excellent.

    But from time to time, it does not yet give the possibility for the Office or hotmail, it automatically changes to outlook.  Which I think would be OK, if the student is on their home computer and want to send it like that. (but eventually will be their parents email)

    For those who are informed on a school computer and want to use hotmail/gmail.  several problems occur...
    Once they choose the choice of hotmail/gmail, the process does not continue.  Everything seems to disappear, and the form is never received by the expected collector. Never turns in the gmail/hotmail sent file.

    One person said, they thought that it went through the process... but the collector never received.

    One person said, it doesn't give them the choice... it automatically opens outlook, even if they would have used hotmail instead.

    I suspect that most of the students would use a hotmail/gmail account to send the form.

    It's the form, we have created, http://www.SD22.BC.ca/forms/Scholarship_Application_Final_distributed.PDF  

    If it helps to understand what is happening... appreciate anyone taking a peek, even try to present.  Just write on her test, so that we know.

    We are trying to get this ready for the end of February.

    Perhaps recognizing the help... This should be posted on another forum as well. ?

    Total egg on my face.  The people who described the problem for me, left aside the fact that they did not actually read the pop up window that came when they hit the submit button.

    This explains, so why no one really had an answer for me.  The popup window, when you choose 'internet' option indicates clearly that we must save, then fix on the mail program they choose.

    My apologies, there...

    But he did raise the small problem, if someone check marking the 'don't show this'... could cause problems.

  • New-VM cmdlet always deploys "Thin-provisioned" VMs - need help

    Hi all

    I am at a total loss on this and spent several days trying to figure out what's wrong.  I'm deploying a new virtual machine from a template using PowerCLI version 5.1 Release 1.  The model is thin-set as all our models are, but when you specify my "New - VM" command, the resulting virtual machine always deploys as thin-provisioned even if I specify "thick".  Here is the command I use:

    PowerCLI C:\ > New-VM-model $templatename - $datastoreClustername - DiskStorageFormat EagerZeroedThick - $hostname - VMHost Datastore name $newVMname - location $foldername

    The above command returns the following error that 'EagerZeroedThick' is not a valid for the parameter - DiskStorageFormat option (although I see it clearly is done by "Get-Help-detailed New - VM")...:

    New - VM: 20/02/2014 12:09:18 new - the specified invalid VM storage format. Valid values are "Thin" and "thick".

    Online: 1 character: 7

    + New-VM < < < <-Template (model Get - Id VirtualMachine - vm - 1060) Datastore - Orion1_DSCluster - DiskStorageFormat EagerZeroe

    dThick - VMHost orion2esx01.cisco.com - name rcdn6-vm91-8-location "generic user (jstest).

    + CategoryInfo: InvalidArgument: (:)) [new-VM], InvalidArgument)

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId: Client20_VMServiceImpl_GetnerateCloneSpec_IvalidStorageFormat, VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmd

    lets.Commands.NewVM

    So I try the same command above, but this time by using 'thick ':

    PowerCLI C:\ > New-VM-model $templatename Datastore thick - VMHost $hostname - DiskStorageFormat - $datastoreClustername - name $newVMname - location $foldername

    The above command will successfully deploy a new virtual machine to the specified model, but the resulting virtual machine will always be Approvisionnés Thin rather than thick as I said...

    I have Google had the devil on this issue and did not happen to something that helps me...  I tried all the combinations of parameters, and the parameter order hoping that would be the thing without result.  As I said, I am at a complete loss and hope someone here can point me in the right direction.

    Sum, my 2 questions are:

    1. Why is EagerZeroedThick not considered as a valid option for the setting -DiskStorageFormat even if "Get-Help-detailed New - VM" clearly states that it is?  (I've seen a lot of example online of people using this option as well)
    2. Why the new virtual machine being deployed as a thin-put in service of the virtual machine, even if I specify thick for the setting -DiskStorageFormat of New - VM?

    It is a 1 vCenter/vSphere 5.1 update environment.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I finally received a response from the Vmware Support on this topic and thought I'd share it for anyone else running in this issue:

    VMware support:

    "I confirmed and discovered that it is a bug that is already running of our public relations team that suits him.

    And confirmed that this will be fixed in the next major release of VMware CLI power.

    And now, there is no ETA for it but I think would it as well as ESXi 5.5 U1 version but I can't confirm it. »

  • VM with Thin Provisioning, but increase not the size of the installation disc.

    I'm working on a test VM for Windows XP installation.  I've implemented initially for 8 GB and with a provisioning.  However, now I am more space because of all the updates and adverse Microsoft threw there.  I cleaned the drive as much as I can and am still really low on disk space.  New updates will not download or install.  I increased the size of the disk of 10 GB, but in Windows, it still shows 8 GB.  What gives?  What Miss me?

    When you have added on the hard drive, you have added the space at the end of the training. You need to resize the partition on this computer to use all the new space. There are many options to resize the partition. A program that I use which is great and can run from a live cd is called GParted- http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ .

  • HCIbench - vdbench VMs does not start

    Hello team Performance VSAN

    I am currently trying to run HCIbench on a VSAN cluster and have some problems. Everything seems to work fine until the moment after the vdbench VMs are deployed and configured. Opening the console they are all showing with "the operating system not found '.

    • The VMs VDbench are connected to a network segment that has a DHCP server, which I know works as the Auto-Perf-tool is picking up an IP address from the DHCP server on this segment.
    • I use the vdbench50403.zip file.
    • Validation happening on 'Performance Automation tool Configuration Page'
    • The/opt/automation/logs log appears with the following text:

    Capture.JPG

    • The Auto-Perf-tool has 2 network cards, a routable which I can access from my browser and one connected to an isolated segment that has a DHCP server, where all the VMs vdbench are also connected to.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    By

    I managed to understand this one. The auto-perf-tool seems to need direct access to the hosts, i.e. the vCenter-access alone was not sufficient. In my environment, the auto-perf-tool had direct access to the vCenter which is dual homed and have access to hosts on a separate management network. Changing the vCenter so it connects to hosts on the same network as the auto-perf-tool is resolved the problem and the hcibench now works fine!
