VCB with Windows 2000 Server before and after! Does not!

In our configuration (esx3.5, vi2.5 and vcb 1.5) we have problems get the pre post scripts running in Windows 2000 Server. It does not at all pre/start scripts. We need this because we have some strange databases that must be stopped before the snapshot and started after.

The 2000 machine is fully updated, and the esx servers are updated 4.

I also tried in a test environment with esx3i fully updated (beyond update 4) and vcb1.1

Pre-Post controls work perfectly in 2003 (not yet tested in 2008).

What I tried:

  • Disable-ing the SyncDriver (must be a solution for Server 2000 with Exchange 2000)

  • Place scripts to a location different (C:\WINNT or C:\Windows or C:\Program VMware Tools\backupScripts.d

  • Adding C:\Program VMware Tools\backupScripts.d to the $PATH variable so that the script can be run from anywhere

  • Reinstall the VMWare tools.

The command I used to get the backup:

v h vcbMounter.exe *. n u .local \n*-ipaddr:vcbtest. .local - r c:\vcb\vcbtest-full-01 t m nbd fullvm

I also tried adding the switch "0 q" or "q 1".

No solutions seem to work. Does anyone have any ideas?

It works for me with a C:\Windows folder (even if windows is installed in C:\winnt),

with files like pre-antigel - script.bat and post-thaw - script.bat

  • Recently upgraded Windows 2000 server to 2008 which does not support Netbeui. I am trying to install TCP/IP on the BACK box, but can't find a 16-bit version.

    I have an old DOS box running MS add-on workgroup 3.11. It worked Netbeui for years connecting to a W2K Server with no problems. We have recently updated our server to a new server Win 2008 who now does not support Netbeui. I try to install TCP/IP on the BACK box but have had no luck finding the 16-bit version of the tcp protocol. I can succesfully add battery of 32 bits, but the network card doesn't.

  • I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I rebooted, restored, ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, uninstall/install update etc...

    I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I have rebooted, restored (im doing this), ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, malware, virus, uninstall/install etc and my machine wil always do not run for a long time without going through some sort of problem after an hour or two.  Can anyone suggest what to do about this? I read a lot of information online on all the windows 8 and fixes bugs, etc, but anything Microsoft/Windows, which ensures its customers, a hotfix or compesating their customers with software that still works. This isn't a hardware problem, and I can't keep day and bad shooting and trying to fix the day things in?

    Sincerely,
    A client who is a loss for words.
    Here are some problems in no particular order.
    1.) apps to not install it, and/or Windows saying they are when they are in fact not. The fix to install / uninstall, or get on the site of windows directly in general does not, and or does not at all.
    The change permissions 2.) does not work on files that you should be able to access in changing oxnership, permissions, etc.
    3.) Google chrome won't let me access my account of microsoft (or fact rarely) trying to access assistance. But internet Explorer doesn't?
    Randomly will increase from Internet 4.) a previous connection wired to wireless to a reboot.
    5.) my 8 'key' windows was only shown to me after that I have let Windows scan my machine online? Why? I paid for this... I restarted it and it says: service not available (it worked the third attempt which was 1-3 minutes after the initial analysis). Windows only showed my product ID not the key. I know that my victory. 8 was OEM when preinstalled I bought it new, but why didn't we files on it that had nothing to do with activation, appearing on dates for three weeks, or so before I bought it. What is the 'activation of the factory'?
    6 :) Windows Essentials does not hang for a long time, and the troubleshooterprogram of update simply does not work (I had to go to the website to try tp operate, the bluetooth functionality is not good that there is an error.
    7.) windows scan and repair gets stuck at 27% (Im not the only one with this problem).
    8.), avery MS Office 2013 Disappears so often and not easy to reload "we have encountered a problem.
     

    The computer manufacturer is responsible to see that it works properly with Windows 8. It says that it is a new computer I contact HP and make these problems their. If you don't get satisfactory results I turn and look elsewhere for a computer. Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

  • MP560 on a Mac OS x networking with Windows 7, recognizes the network but does not print text

    I have a Canon Pixma MP560 connected to a MacBook Pro with OS 10.9.5 which is wire connected to the network via a modem from Time Warner Arris TG862 to a Dell Latitude E6410 laptop computer and a desktop computer, Lenovo, which have two Windows 7. The printer is the USB cable connected to the MacBook and works very well. On the Mac in System Preferences > sharing, printer sharing is enabled, the MP560 put highlight and users > 'everyone can print. " and the system of preferences > printers, Scanners & "share this printer on the network" is selected. On the Lenovo and Dell, I installed Hello, and both can 'see' the MP560 and file > print on both, the printer is recognized and activated. BUT she shoots a white sheet; the text is not printed. Obviously there is something that I did not, any box I've unchecked. I'd appreciate any ideas! Thank you.

    A few days after posting here, I asked this question on another Canon Website and learned that in similar circumstances to mine described here, Canon recommends that the MP560 "be connected to your Windows computer then shared to your Macintosh', rather than, as in my case, saw the MP560 connected to the Mac and then sharing with Windows computers.

  • Satellite PRO A200-1 s 1 with Windows 7 x 32. Touchpad does not work

    Hello world
    I installed Windows 7 on my Satellite Pro A200-1 s 1, recovered all the drivers on the Toshiba site, everything works fine (less than the webcam that doesn't work even with the previous s.o. XP or Vista...). But my Touchpad does not work... No Fn + F9, no drivers, nothing works. And in my control, Manager of Panel devices seem to be going well.
    Any suggestion?

    Hello

    You reinstall the driver for the touchpad?
    Check it!

    Also check if the option disable touchpad when USB mouse is connected is not checked. That are in the control panel-> mouse-> device settings

  • New NB200 with Windows 7 preinstalled Fn shortcuts keyboard does not work

    I just purchase the NB200 later with Windows 7 preinstalled (new version with 250 GB hard drive).
    However the Fn keys do not work.

    The machine is straight out of the box, no change.

    I have to do something to activate the access keys.

    I've heard Hotkey problems with windows 7 and the need to install that package added value of Toshiba.
    However I don't is not expected to have to do this on a brand new machine pre-installed.

    Any help very much appreciated.

    Thank you

    You are right. New portable computers are delivered with the settings and everything should work fine.
    I don't have Win7 on my laptop but I presume that it is similar to Vista, then go to start > all programs > Toshiba > utilities and check if there are shortcuts to restart Flash cards.
    Maybe you'll be able to turn it on again.

    Nothing happens when you press the FN key and hold a few seconds?

  • Pavilion TS 14 Sleekbook Windows 8 lock screen and touchpad does not power on

    Hi all-

    My Pavilion TS 14 Sleekbook running Windows 8 made two updates today this restart required for both. I do not know what updates I updated important updates to autoload. When I tried to "flip" to enter my password to open my lock screen, the screen is nothing but show the waves of energy around my finger. Use the keyboard to open the password page. Tried to go back from the touchscreen keyboard, nothing. Standard keyboard used to type in password, then the touch screen works very well. Someone has an idea of what's going on?

    TIA, Kiralinde

    Hi Kiralinde,

    Not a hard reset will not affect your files at all. If this does not work please reply back with your product number.
