types of data recovery problem

Hi, I have a problem trying to retrieve the data type of an object. I use the VMUtils::find_device method to get the especification to cdrom. Then I need to get the data type of backup (VirtualCdromRemoteAtapiBackingInfo or VirtualCdromIsoBackingInfo) but I don't know how to recover this $cdrom_spec info - & gt; support.

The value of $cdrom_spec is:

$VAR1 = bless( {
 'deviceChange' => [
                     bless( {
                              'operation' => bless( {
                                                      'val' => 'remove'
                                                    }, 'VirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation' ),
                              'device' => bless( {
                                                   'connectable' => bless( {
                                                                             'allowGuestControl' => 0,
                                                                             'connected' => 0,
                                                                             'startConnected' => 1
                                                                           }, 'VirtualDeviceConnectInfo' ),
                                                   'backing' => bless( {
                                                                         'fileName' => ''
                                                                       }, 'VirtualCdromIsoBackingInfo' ),
                                                   'unitNumber' => 0,
                                                   'controllerKey' => 200,
                                                   'key' => 3000
                                                 }, 'VirtualCdrom' )
                            }, 'VirtualDeviceConfigSpec' )
                   ]
}, 'VirtualMachineConfigSpec' );

Someone knows how can I get the type of backup data.

In perl, you can use "ref" to determine the type of thing that is referenced. Here, it will be as follows:

> print Ref ($cdrom_spec-> support);

  • SSHD Toshiba MQ01ABD100H - Firmware / data recovery problem

    Hello!
    I have the mission critical data on a MQ01ABD100H of Toshiba to SSHD which was in a Sony VAIO for less than one year who decided to stop working from one day to the next. All I care about is the data. A professional data recovery company apparently reputable rated player, told me that it was a "mechanical failure", said they could recover the data and gave me a quote of $1500.00. A week later I was told something different; They said the platters and heads seem to agree and the problem seems to be on the circuit board and/or flash drive, and they didn't know how to recover the data. They told me that they have consulted Toshiba too. I asked them if they replaced the pcb Board and they would not tell me or answer questions more. I have the drive in my hands and am looking for options. I really believe that my data is recoverable if the trays are okay, right?

    Here's what I know for sure; the bios of the machine of Sony VAIO Windows 8.1, correctly recognizes the drive. However, it does not start and is not accessible or recognized with cmd prompt Windows 8.1 UEFI options. The drive is not encrypted. After putting the reader into an external enclosure and its connection to another Win8.1 machine, the player starts with no extreme sounds of survey. Slowly, she clicks a few times as if the heads are looking, but then calms down and keeps running quietly. I have installed a Data Rescue PC3 software that recognizes the drive and its attributes correctly but can't read or clone. I have the Partition Wizard software mini tool, which recognizes the drive correctly, but shows the drive as being unreadable.

    That's what I'm trying to do. I'm looking for a donor on mine, with the same model drive, date, firmware, site, number of PCBS, hard drive code.

    Now, here is my unknowns and I appreciate everyone a preview with these. If I change the pcb edge myself, I need still more likely transfer the firmware for the new Board of Directors, even if I try it without doing it. I don't know where the firmware is stored, is there a rom chip or is it stored in the Flash Player. I'm not certain if, with this model of SSHD, if this can be done with replacement of the chip or the software? If it is stored on the Flash drive how is available independent of the HHD part? Must the reader Flash itself be harvested? But what happens if the flash player is bad, how can the firmware ever be recovered? Any ideas anyone? ... other than myself shot in the head, I'm kidding. I think that this may be a common problem that will often not resolved.

    I have the drive in my hands and am looking for options. I really believe that my data is recoverable if the trays are okay, right?

    I am not an expert but if applications cannot access the data and cannot read data from the SSHD then you will need professional help...

    I found the storage Toshiba page where you could get details on this SSHD

  • Attached data recovery problem size Raw LUN


    We have a problem with our unit of recovery to Date.

    We have a matrix of about 12 TB discs intended to save our VMs.

    So, I try to join VM recovery given as a raw LUN.

    I saw 10.9 TB plug in recovery. try to format... it seemed to me that it works.
    But when I ride it, it was presented as a 2 TB drive.

    Umount - 10.9 Tb
    Mont - 2 TB

    The next step... I have connected to the computer of data recovery (I mean it's just a CentOS behind). And try to make a hand partion using parted and mkfs.

    parted worked well (with TPG as the label).
    So I launched
    mkfs.ext3/dev/sdb1

    It took a lot of time, went up to
    "Writing Superblocks and filesystem accounting information.
    and it seems that it crashes.

    mkfs still present in the process, but it seems that it do nothing.

    It's probably a problem with the ext3 file system.
    But
    (a) it seems I might have an ext3 file system larger than 2 TB.
    (b) ext4 is not available on CentOS of data recovery... so what could I do?

    So... maybe someone has a tip for this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    P.S.: Just for the record, we have 3 ESXi5 host with vCenter 5.

    I'm not 100% sure why you see the wrong size RDM, but make sure you read the Administrators Guide.

    of http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vmware-data-recovery-administrators-guide-20.pdf

    Data recovery is designed to support deduplication stores that are up to one terabyte of size and each appliance backup is limited to the use of two stores of deduplication. Data recovery imposes no limits on the size of the stores of deduplication, but if the size of a store exceeds a terabyte, performance may be affected. While data recovery imposes no limits on deduplication store size, other factors limit the actions of deduplication. So, the stores of deduplication are limited to:
    -500 GB on CIFS network shares
    -1 to VMDK and RDM

  • Satellite L850: Drive HARD Firmware problem prevent data recovery

    Am a little confused and need a simple explanation
    My HDD L850 died under warranty and was sent to the people of data recovery to recover the data before entering new drive under warranty.

    I am told that my hard drive has a fairly unique combination of firmware and the drive that prevents the recovery until they get this firmware. Now 6 weeks after it happened I stll wait.

    Someone in support could explain to me in simple terms, why this firmware is the problem cause and so far can only be obtained by your partner data recovery company?

    Hello

    I think that you will here get a correct answer, why the people of data recovery needs of these packages since it is a user forum.

    But to my knowledge all the 2.5 hard drives and SSD drive supports various firmware.
    These firmware tells the hardware how to interact with the operating system.

    It seems that people in data recovery needs these packages in order to get access to the HARD drive, and I presume, without the compatible firmware, it is not possible to recover the data.

Ok.  I make it work with both my VMC - one with the service pack and the other without.  My OS updates have been loaded in early December, so I don't see how this could it be.  I searched and found this problem has come up before, but I have not found a solution.  I made NO changes to my HTPC.

    2009-01-05 has attempted to start Netflix this morning and you know, it works on both my VMCs.  That's the good news.  So now the real questions are:

    Only 20 people reported it as a problem and only 6 on the green button.  I believe that it affected all the world with Media Center.  So why not discussed much?

    It already happened, causes a stir and silently slips without known cause or cure.  How can we find out what caused this and how to prevent it from happening again in the future?

  • Netflix in WMC «there was a problem of data recovery...» »

    I installed the latest round of updates (Ultimate) of Windows Vista and it apparently burst Netflix in WMC.  Now, I get the error:

    "There was a problem of data recovery. Make sure your internet connection is working and try again. »

    Internet works on the machine.  I reinstalled Silverlight (v4) and Netflix for WIndows Media Center.

    How to diagnose and repair the problem?

    Thank you!

    Keith...

    Sorry for the delay, but I've been busy (in my free time) trying to get this to work.

    I gave up trying to resuscitate MCE and installed a brand new Windows Vista Ultimate Edition with Service Pack 2.  After apply all WIndows patches and installation of Silverlight, I have the "Netflix" element in MCE.  He invites me to install, what I'm doing.  However, every time I start MCE and go to Netflix, he tells me to do reinstall - no login screen.

    I tried all the "mcupdate" article and then supported your steps above, but no go.

    I did this twice, so it wasn't just a fluke.  Apparently, the part of Netflix to MCE is not detect the plug-in that it installed.

    Any thoughts on what to do then?

    Thank you again...

    Keith...

    Later: I ran "mcupdate" after the steps you suggested, and now Netflix is gone again!

    Later: same problem on my other computer running MCE and Vista.  I don't want to mess up this computer so I left as what.

    Later: opening of a new post on problems become Netflix to work with a clean install.

  • Types of backup destination VMware Data Recovery

    IM test VMware Data Recovery and reading it can save to different destinations. Here's a sentence from of the Administrator's guide.

    You can store backups on network, VMDK shares, or RDM.

    The only option I see is the network share and make a folder called VMwareDataRecovery with other files and folders in it. If I backup more 1 VM to this nextwork share looks like it mixes everything together. I was under the impression that you can save in a file single vdmk.

    The only options I have under VMware Data Recovery for Destinations are Refresh, add a share of Nework, Format, Mount, Unmount, Extend and integrity check

    Remove you it from the virtual computer by means of the settings?  If so, have you selected the option to remove the virtual machine and remove the disc?  If you have them removed from the virtual computer through the settings, then you can delete browser data store.  It will come to your space.  Also, see IO errors is because you took the disk to the virtual machine without removing firstly by vDR Console's Configuration.

    That said, I would do the following:

    1. Ensure that the VM vDR does not any VMDK attached other than the VMDK root which is 5 GB in size.

    2. Open the browser of data store and make sure that the former VMDK you created have disappeared.  If not, select them and click on delete.

    3. Go to the Configuration Console for vDR and look at Destinations of backup to make sure there is nothing there.  There should be nothing in the list of destinations, if there are, remove them.

    4. After checking the above, create a new size 15GB VMDK.

    5. Restart your virtual machine of vDR

    6. Go into the Console to Setup vDR and select the disk that you created in the backup Destinations, do a right click and select format.

    7. The size should report something similar to what my screenshot of previous shows.

    I would like to know if that works for you!

    If you have found this helpful at all prices please points using the correct or useful!  Thank you!

  • Problem with the type of data in a view

    Hi all

    The data type of an expression of DECODE() is determined by that of his first return value. Oracle has decided that a NULL value is a VARCHAR2 data type (because there must be something ).

    The changes to your code are extremely intertwined and twisted out and frankly too hard to work through. However, I think at some point the changes that you have implemented it had that effect.

    original title: restore

    I put my computer to original settings and lost my backup disks... .is it remains possible to retrieve my photos and music, etc.

    If you have an installation clean back to factory settings, you normally wiped your hard drive clean during the process.

    You can try this program:

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.
