Using Partition XP as VM

I tried to use my XP partition in a virtual machine in Windows 7. I get Module DiskEarly power of failure. My hard drive is a ssd 120 GB partitioned in two with XP Pro 32 on the first half and Windows 7 64 on the second half. I try to use the XP partition similar how fusion works with boot camp. I unplugged the partition so there is no drive letter, but its still does not. Any thoughts?

Your options are:

1. use XP as a host and run Win7 in a VM
2. get the second hard disk and use the second drive for the XP partition

A Windows 7 host cannot assign the systemdrive (your SSD drive) or the systemdrive to a virtual machine partitions - your plan is not possible

  • Satellite Pro L300 - using partition magic

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 laptop and I would like to make an additional partition next to the C: drive already existing and the hidden partition. I created the recovery discs and I want to use the magic of partition for the partitioning process (no new installation of windows xp). Can someone tell me if using partition magic will have adverse effect on the eventual recovery from disks created?

    Thanks in advance

    Usually you can do with Windows option in disk management, but can you please tell me something first?

    You are using Vista or Windows XP Home edition? I ask this question because if you use Vista preinstalled HARD drive must have already two partitions. Please check in Windows Explorer.

    Hidden partition is described as an EISA (WinRE) partition?

    Support of Oracle reproduced this issue. The resolution was to ensure cursor_sharing is set to "EXACT", we happened to use "SIMILAR" in this case due to a migration of 10 g and 11 g.

  • Why use partitioning and key-associator key features?

    Why use partitioning and key-associator key features?

    What kind of application are not suitable for the use of the features key-associator and partitioning key?
    Could you give me some examples?

    Thank you

    So the typical is to use KeyAssociation. It is a unique interface which uses a method

    public Object getAssociatedKey();

    I think that it works on the ClusterService level (rather than saying the Cache). For example, if you have a customer and a cache of account where a customer can have multiple accounts. Now, the customer and the account object will implement KeyAssociation and return the customer object as the AssociatedKey. This will cause these items to live on the same partition.

    Now you can do some clever tricks since you know that they are on the same partition. These include the use of the BackingMap and EntryProcessors / InvocationService / aggregators to return all AccountIds associated with a customer account (essentially a join).

    Unfortunately, these are enough consistency of the advanced so it is better to build first of all in a unit test and get them working before you include in your application.

    Best, Andrew.

    PS. You can also use the KeyPartitioningStrategy, but I prefer the KeyAssociation (like most people).

  • Can satellite U50t-A10F - I use partition 7 GB on SSD for Ubuntu

    U50t-A10F has a SSD (32 GB) and a (750 GB) HARD drive.

    The partition on the SSD drive information show 7 GB allocated and him remains unaffected.
    Is this "unallocated" section used for something else, or I can use it to install part of the Ubuntu root file system.

    I read that on Windows, the SSD is used as a form of cache extended using a falseraid implemented.

    So, is it more a "unallocated" partition a part of and GPartEd simply do not correctly identify?
    He even appears in the windows "Drive Manager".

    Hello

    I can't say I don't know this model but I have seen and tested similar configurations on the U940 and U840.
    The two had a HARD drive and an additional 32 GB of SSD used for Windows OS-specific reasons and no palpable by the user somehow normal.
    Only a part of the DSS has been used and the rest was empty but totally in "empty."
    It was due to the specificity of the soft raid configuration.

    So as long as the raid - the installation program has been left as what, the SSD was not usable for anything other than swap/put into hibernation.

    If you don't mind tthings "break", it's pretty easy to remove the raid configuration that will allow the use of the SSD...
    However, be very catious! Although it is easy to remove the RAID seup, is not at all easy to restore it!
    Reconstruction of the raid on the U840 and U940 need attention ASP which will cost money.

  • Can I use Partition 'free space '?

    I was showing a couple of PDFs in preview during execution of Safari - with maybe 5 or 6 tabs open - listen to Spotify when I got this message:

    (at the time wherever I took the screenshot I had stopped already Safari and Spotify):

    I was very surprised to see because when I formatted my 1 TB SSD I made to allocate approximately 15 - 20% 'Space' to be free, because I have read several times that you should never completely fill to the top of your player. Then, I checked my storage:

    I found it very odd that I'd only 78GB left because I knew I had at least 130 GB of free, I keep an eye close enough on my storage space.  I restarted the computer and I checked my storage once again, and magically it appeared as it should:

    As you can see, the total disk space is 819,36 GB. The rest of the 1 TB is the Partition of 'Free space', I created when I formatted the disk.  When I've been formatting, I noticed the option to format as 'Free space', so I assumed it was the opportunity for anyone who took the advice that you should always allocate space of 15 to 20%.  I don't know if the warning mentioned previously is related to this, but whatever it is, I had the bad idea to create literally score "Free space" while trying to keep my healthy HDD by overloading her not?  Should I just hang out my main partition in disk utility to use the 'free space' now and just keep an eye on how I use?

    Data sheet:

    MacBook Pro mid-2012 (9.1) 15 "(non-retine)"

    I7 2.6 Ghz processor

    16 GB OF RAM

    Samsung 850 Pro SSD 1 TB (activated TRIM)

    Mountain Lion OS X (10.8.5)

    Safari 6.2.8

    Overview 6.0.1

    Spotify 1.0.20.101

    Yes, you did. You must leave this amount of free space on the boot instead of leaving no partition allocated.

  • Re: use partition (D:HP_Recovery) as a partition (not system) normal?

    I have a new HP Pavillion 1235 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit p7

    It came with a hard drive of 1 t with C: and D: partitions. The D: partition is the HP_RECOVERY partition. I want to use the D: partition for my data so I can create a system image independent of my personal files. After burning the DVDs of the HP recovery stuff, I formatted the drive D: for my use. He presents himself as a "healthy (Primary Partition)" in Windows Disk Manager.

    My problem is that when I use the Windows 7 built according to "Create a system image", it always includes the D: drive in the image and I have no option to deselect. How can I keep D: out of the picture of the system?

    Just thought I'd post a solution I found for my problem. It's not very elegant, but it works.

    Re my original problem, HP has confirmed that they have named D: drive as a system drive, which is why 'Image system' included with no option to include it not. They tell how they did it, or how to change its designation.

    So here's my solution:

    1 format the D: partition. (Gets rid of all HP recovery data)
    2 minimize the D: partition. (Mine ended up to ~ 3 GB)
    3. reduce the C: partition. (The max shrink allowed brought to ~ 480 GB)
    4. Add a new partition in the resulting unallocated space to shrink C: (wasn't able to determine how combine unallocated space it to shrink D: to shrink C:, so there are about 14 GB unallocated)
    5. move my personal data for the new partition.

    RESULT: Now when Windows creates a system image I can choose whether my new partition with my personal data is included or not.

  • How to remove the disc VM (using partitions)

    Hi all

    Workstation 11 Pro, Windows 7/10 guest (same behavior), Windows 7 comments.

    Guest has a configured and more data main OS drive disc. This drive is not using a file, rather than using physical access to a partition not used.

    Comments also instant (if that makes a difference)

    Windows 7 host was the original host where the machine has been created

    Windows 10 host is a new facility after upgrade (even machine so that can access all disks)

    I try to remove this data from the virtual machine disk, but will have questions:

    1 VM settings-> delete disk.     Initialize the Workstation States "of sufficient permissions to access the file.

    2. tried in offline mode of the disc in the comments before removing, same result

    3 attempted to create a complete clone of the machine without the disc - same mistake

    4 tried to create a complete clone of the machine with the floppy - cannot be duplicated the machine with physical disks

    5. When you try to start the machine on Windows 10 (new installation), I get a message indicating
    the partition table has changed and I need to remove and add the disk:

    tried to remove and don't add, some of

    b tried just remove, same error as in 1, 2 above

    Note There are no log files entries generated during the boot, so I can't include these here...

    How can I remove this reference on the disc so that I can:

    1. access from two hosts of windows 7 or 10?

    2 clone this machine without the physical disc

    See you soon,.

    Bonny

    You must delete all the snapshots or the clichés associated with this disc to be able to remove the disc hisself. Example, even if you do not, if the drive was there when you did a snapshot, the associated disk cannot be deleted.

    Hello

    This is an example of a Query of Top - N , and Yes, the analytic functions are a good way to do it:

    WITH     got_r_num     AS
(
     SELECT     ques.*
     ,     RANK () OVER ( PARTITION BY  coverage
                           ,          divisionnumber
                      ORDER BY          classnumber
                    ) AS r_num
     FROM    ques
)
SELECT  casename, casenumber, coverage, divisionnumber, classnumber, tier, monthlyrate
FROM     got_r_num
WHERE     r_num     = 1
;

    Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT, it is very useful!

    "PARTITION OF ' is a term often used with analytic functions. "PARTTIION" means also at least two other things in Oracle, so people you better understand if you say "analytic functions", rather than "partition by.

  • using partition in real-time

    Hi I'm new to essbase

    How we can use the option of partition to replicate and transperent in real-time.

    kindly help me to understand this concept.

    Hello
    We use transparent partition as an interface to read data from the source cube

    A transparent wall allows users to manipulate data that is stored in a database target as if it were part of the database from the actual source. Remote data are retrieved from the data source whenever the target database users demand. Write back to the database also target cross back to the source database.

    We can use this technique for improved maintenance of large databases by splitting them into smaller databases to allow operations on small databases and stiil facilitate users they see in a single database.
    We can use this to maintain increased security.

    A replicated database partition copy part of the source database to store in a target database. Users can access the target database as if it were the source. The database administrator must occasionally update the target to the source database database.

    We can use this technique as a way to transfer data between the essbase cubes.
    I'll explain a classic example.
    In the current statement cube, we will maintain the only data two years - the previous year and the current year data.
    As part of the end of the year, we need to move the data from the previous year to the cube of the story and the same should be deleted in the current cube.
    We will create a partition replicated for the year previous current b & w and the cube history.
    Replicate the current data to the cube of the story.
    Delete the partition relicated and erase data from the previous year in the current cube.

    I hope that will be enough.

  • Proposal - maybe a good idea to make it easier to use partitioning...

    Would it not possible to ensure the consistency of support a special "adapter" to build a partitioning key strategy based on a fact retriever key (passing through the constructor, for example). When running queries with filters using the extractor keys same consistency could then be able to detect it and automatically make use of partitioning (the same way that if a partition filter was used, but having to code explicitly by the developer)-would this work? Just a thought...

    / Magnus

    Hi Magnus,

    Yes, this could work, but only if you use an EqualsFilter on this extractor, I'm sure you're aware. This idea seems to be quite similar to KeyAssociation where the extracted element would be the association. Granted, you would need to use a KeyAssociatedFilter, thus requiring a detection of the applications, but quite a bit easier, then using a PartitionedFilter.

    I like your suggestion, and we had discussions on the inclusion of something similar, although further to achieve then what you describe.

    Thank you

  • How to use partitioning for large table

    Hello

    ******************
    Oracle 10 g 2/Redhat4
    RAC database
    ASM
    *******************

    I have a TRACE table that will also grow very fast, in fact, I 15,000,000 lines.

    TRACES (IDENTIFICATION NUMBER,
    NUMBER OF COUNTRY_NUM
    Timestampe NUMBER,
    MESSAGE VARCHAR2 (300),
    type_of_action varchar (20),
    CREATED_TIME DATE,
    DATE OF UPDATE_DATE)

    Querys who asked for this table are and make a lot of discs!

    --------------------------------------------------------
    Select count (*) as y0_
    TRACES this_
    where this_. COUNTRY_NUM =: 1
    and this_. TIMESTAMP between: 2 and: 3
    and lower (this_. This MESSAGE) as: 4;
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    SELECT *.
    FROM (SELECT this_.id,
    this_. TIMESTAMP
    Traces this_
    WHERE this_. COUNTRY_NUM =: 1
    AND this_. TIMESTAMP BETWEEN: 2 AND: 3
    AND this_.type_of_action =: 4
    AND LOWER (this_. MESSAGE) AS: 5
    ORDER BY this_. TIMESTAMP DESC)
    WHERE ROWNUM < =: 6;
    -----------------------------------------------------------

    I have 16 distinct COUNTRY_NUM in the table and the TIMESTAMPE is a number that the application is inserted into the table.

    My question is the best solution to resolve this table is to use partitioninig for a smal parts?
    I have need of a partitioning using a list by date (YEAR/month) and COUNTRY_NUM, is there a better way for her?

    NB: for an example of TRACES in my test database

    1 Select COUNTR_NUM, count (*) traces
    Group 2 by COUNTR_NUM
    3 * order by COUNTR_NUM
    SQL > /.

    COUNTR_NUM COUNT (*)

    Hello

    Yes and part is that you can remove the whole score once you don't need "of them. I think you should be good to go. Let me know if you have any other questions.
