• Cannot create a virtual machine with a vmdk file copied from another location, please find the attached error

  Hi all

  I copied a file from one place vmdk and try to make a new virtual machine with this vmdk file. But when I turn on after the creation of vm error is coming. Error in the text and the image below

  Power on the virtual machine: cannot open scsi0:0 disc: disc not supported or not valid type 7. Ensure that the disk has been imported.

  See the error of the stack for more details on the cause of this problem.

  Target: DBServer

  vCenter Server: vcsa

  Error stack

  An error was received from the ESX host turning on DBServer VM.

  Unable to start the virtual machine.

  Could not open scsi0:0 disc: disc not supported or not valid type 7. Ensure that the disk has been imported.

  This error message generally if the hard files have been copied hosted as VMware Workstation product, which uses a format of sparse file that is not supported on an ESXi host. Instead of the hard copy, you can use VMware Converter, or - if you prefer - you can convert the hard using vmware-vdiskmanager (before transfer) or vmkfstools (after downloading). I deal to use vmkfstools you will need to load the mutliextent module (see for example "Clone or migration operations involving virtual discs non-VMFS on ESXi fail with an error" vSphere 5.1 Release Notes)

• Problem in a mount vmdk file: could not get a VIM ticket for this virtual disk.

  Hello

  I have a virtual machine on ESX 3.0.1

  When I get the file vmdk directly from ESX, it gets mounted successfully from the command prompt using the mount utility.

  But when I try to mount the vmdk by VI file it displays error "Unable to get a VIM ticket for this virtual disk" on the command line.

  I tried this for other virtual machines also and most of them work.

  What is the reason for the error "unable to get a ticket for this virtual disk VIM.

  How can I get this vmdk file mounted by VI?

  Can you show the virtual computers view of inventory? The image you show of hosts and Clusters discovered.

  Thank you

• Cannot use the files copied from Windows 8/7/Vista in windows XP.

  Always there are people who use Windows Xp, the problem is that when I copy the files in my USB and use it in my friends house, then Windows XP said 'pen drive not formatted ".

  Always there are people who use Windows Xp, the problem is that when I copy the files in my USB and use it in my friends house, then Windows XP said 'pen drive not formatted ".

  How is the "pen drive" formatted - with what the specific OS file system?
   
  This is more likely to be a file system - do not operating system (although related, not as much as you might think)-problem.  Another possibility is a problem hardware or bad driver on the machine Windows XP itself.  It could also be, although rare, an incompatible 'USB key '.
   
  What is the 'pen drive' is formatted with the file system is essentially - the first question to ask.  Then - if I were you - I everything on the 'pen drive' copy on a computer which can be read - if committed to the machine more common denominator (in this case the Windows XP machine) you will use and FORMAT this 'pen drive' using this machine.  One of the few possible things will happen no doubt...

  (1) you'll find you format it with a version of NTFS that will work in all areas - all the machines that you can use with Windows XP or more on them.  Then this problem will disappear.

  (2) you will find there * is * something wrong with the Windows XP specific in question and this machine is not a problem easily solved this and your "pen drive" probably will work on someone elses machine Windows XP very well as it existed before.

  (3) you will end up with a FAT32 formatted "pen drive" that should work on most any system - as long as you don't need to transfer * really * large individual files.

• Expected .dbf files copied from old house Oracle Oracle home again after an upgrade out of place?

  Hello

  I recently performed an upgrade out of place of Oracle 11.2.0.2 at 11.2.0.4 by following the checklist to upgrade Oracle (Doc ID 1276368.1).  While doing an RMAN backup, I noticed he was doing market back files .dbf since the old Oracle 11.2.0.2 rather than the new Oracle 11.2.0.4 Directory directory.  The .dbf files that are being backed up are not in the new Oracle 11.2.0.4 directory.  Must the .dbf files be copied to the Oracle of old House to the new House Oracle after an upgrade?

  Thank you in advance.

  In the checklist Upgrade Oracle (Doc ID 1276368.1), I could see not all the instructions to copy all the old Oracle Directory .dbf files to the new.  I was wondering if that is by design (.dbf files remain in the old Oracle Directory and somehow referenced in the new Oracle Directory) and what happens when I do a restore RMAN.

  If you start working & only installed database 11.2.0.2 a new copy of the Oracle of 11.2.204, then of course there no data files in the new directory.

  Most people have NOT stored in/under ORACLE_HOME Oracle data files.

  There is no need to have the Oracle datafiles reside under the new Oracle 11.2.0.4 directory

• Can I include file .cfm from another server on another server?

  Can I include a .cfm file in a document when the .cfm file (and datasource that routes the output) resident on another server? Both .cfm pages would be on separate servers and are the two database with different DSN names on different servers. Does anyone know how to do this or if this is possible?

• Copy only the vmdk file to create a backup

  I'm totally new to VMware ESX 4, but decided to allows you to host a web server on Windows 2008 Server vm, after about two weeks of reading and the VMware ESX product testing. I have used other products virtual machine last year or so for other projects.

  Why not just copy the vmdk files to create backup vms? That is problem? I have not to perform the clone at the same time as any other vm used to create or created from the vmdk file copied. I tested with a NT4 Workstation vm, because the files are small and can be copied and moved quickly, and I didn't have problems.

  I use the Vsphere Client to copy the vmdk file to a folder at the root of the data store and then by creating a virtual machine, naming the vm the same as the folder.  I created a model of the virtual machine to w2008 use Vsphere standalone converter, but the vmdk copy is so much easier and faster that of re-run the converter again on the model should I need.

  I created a Windows Server 2008 virtual machine and want to test before installing Tomcat and MySQL. The operating system should get messed up, I thought that I could start over with just using the current vmdk file, I copied. Yet I don't trust using snapshots, etc. I have also created many Linux VM on the ESX Server for analysis of the use of Tomcat on them. I also have a XP Pro VM as an alternative to emergency. It is XP Pro on a computer that hosts the web site of Tomcat/MySQL production - slowly.

  Thank you

  Take a look at http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760 for a script that can automate Virtual Machine cloning. When you start a virtual machine that has been cloned ESXi will prompt you to "I copied it" or I moved it"etc. If it is a copy, you would respond with "I copied it" and ESXi change MAC, etc. of the UUID. The only required files are files VMDK and VMX file. Others will be re-created when the machine is added to the inventory.

  In regards to the tools, I would install them. It also includes drivers to allow the host ESXi communicate with VM for things like the soft stop etc.

• Scheduled tasks are stored in a file that can be copied easily from one server to another?

  We have a multitude of scheduled tasks.  When moving from one server to another, we currently re-enter manually the tasks.  There are problems which the least is my strike capability.  The tasks are saved in a XML or any other file type that I could just copy from one server to the other instead of re-entering?

  Thank you!

  The file is \cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib\neo-cron.xml

• Files copied to external devices (USB/PHONE/CD-ROM) damaged when displayed

  Computer desktop running W7 SP1 with 64-bit system.  Files copied from the desktop to external devices are damaged when displayed.  Files can be JPEGs (photos) and or (e, g. XLS) data files.   Similar files copied from a laptop under W7 Service Pack One with a 32-bit system correctly screen.  Errors occur on the USB ports and CD-ROM drives used to copy the data.  This is potentially a problem of HD or something related to the operating system?

  Hi David,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  As you mentioned that the files that you copy from desktop to external devices are damaged when displayed.

  This issue would have occurred due to a virus on your computer.

  I need some information to move forward.

  1. That you get an message\code error when you try to access these files?

  Maybe your computer got infected with a virus.

  So I suggest you view the Microsoft Help article and try the steps to find out if your system has a virus.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/does-computer-have-virus#1TC=Windows-7

  If you find that your computer has a virus please refer to the link below and follow the steps on how to remove computer virus.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/how-remove-computer-virus#how-remove-computer-virus=Windows-7

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  I hope this helps. Please let us know the status of the updates of your question. We will be happy to help you further.

• 1 KB VMDK file?

  I was wondering what this 1 KB file is for? I heard its metadata to tell VMWare how to deal with the data?

  This happened to download the ESX VMDK to my workstation. My question is, when I download this VMDK to another host ESX to the same version, do I have to copy this file in 1 k with it?

  So let's say, for example, I create a virtual machine, but leave out the possibility of creating a virtual disk. Instead, I use this VMDK I copied from another virtual machine to another host ESX to the same version, do not have this file would mess things up?

  Thanks in advance to all

  ... and if you lose this file descriptor, you need to go through http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1002511 to recreate a new.

• Cannot add a vmdk file to existing machine

  We have received a customer vmdk file that they want us to add to one of their existing virtual machines. After downloading it in the virtual machine data store, trying to add, it doesn't show. It can only be seen if I create a new virtual machine and choose the drive as a system disk. However, then do not start. The vmdk file did not come with a configuration file. Does anyone know how to get around this problem?

  I assume that you have only the "die" vmdk file, not the smaller descriptor vmdk which explains why you can see in the VI Client (the descriptor file is what you actually see when you search a VMDK file, not the flat file / data file) once you've imported it. If the file came from Vmware Server or Workstation, it should still have a file descriptor with it - without it you are stuck. If you don't have two files, I'm not sure you can convert using Vmware convertor - you must try this one by yourself according to the previous tips.

  You can try to recreate the VMDK descriptor for the flat file. There is a VMware KB on how to proceed:

• Cannot delete the file on the remote server (Business Catalyst)

  Hi, I am trying to delete a file on my remote server (Business Catalyst), but I get an error message (log of the errors below).  I can delete the other files in the same folder.  In addition, the permissions are the same on the files I can delete and one that I can't.  I can not remove this file with FileZilla, either - get a similar error message.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  This is a template file and I really need to be able to delete or modify it.  Thank you.
