Virtual disk is not accessible, cannot access file

Hello

I am unable to vMotion 2 VM from ESX 3.5 to another host. See attached screenshot. When I change the settings of the two VM, the location of their data VMDK files starts with "[]". None of my other virtual machines appear like that, and they can all vMotion successfully.

Also, I can only power over these 2 VM if I point my VI client directly to the ESX host. If I try to turn on/off or the other VM when my client VI points to Virtual Center, I get this error "unable to access disk.

The Datastore LUN containing these 2 VM have recently migrated to one EMC CLARiiON to another using SAN based EMC SANCopy. After the LUNS migrated, we detattched the ESX hosts and old CLARiiON system attached to the new. I had to will nothing because prior to attaching hosts to the new San, I deleted all the VMS to their inventories, them restarted without any SAN connectivity, then attached to the new San and OK reappeared data warehouses and then I got to browse\ for each file .vmx and re - add to the inventory.

Help!

I recommend that you use a direct connection to the host ESX by VI Client for troubleshooting but cancellation of registration and registration of the virtual machine would require the virtual machine be turned off.

Direct connection to the ESX host would make things a bit easy to troubleshoot.

Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions

  • Cannot access files on hard disk on windows xp, after I worked with it on win 7.

    Cannot access files on external hard drive on windows xp, after that I worked with him on Victory 7.I can see the file, but he says "is not accessible. access is denied. " Can someone help me?

    As you can guess, this is a permissions problem.  Here, it makes a difference if you have XP Home or Pro you have to safe boot mode to change permissions in the House.

    My crystal ball says that your external drive is formatted with the NTFS file system.  When you connected to Windows 7 (or any other computer besides), the files have been added that this user permissions apparently understood that only Win 7 has access to.  There are several ways to handle this...

    Is to save on all your files and reformat the external hard drive with a FAT32 file system and then support files.  You will have no problems of permissions with FAT32, but you can't have any higher than 4 GB single file either.

    Another way is as an administrator, to 'Ownership' of all the files on the disk
    "How appropriate a file or a folder in Windows XP"
       <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308421 >
    but this could get old if the drive moves back.

    Yet another approach is to give "Everyone" full access to everything on the drive.  This may or may not protect against new folders or files added, but may be worth a try:
    As a user administrator, open a command window:
    Start-> Run-> "cmd".
    Then, enter the command:
    CACLS E:\/t/e/c/g everyone: F
    (where I am assuming that your external drive is mounted as "E:" - change of real player)

    I hope that something more top is useful...

  • Access removable disk error... "Z:\ is not accessible. Access denied»

    1. my (2) flash drives have been available last week

    2. this week, they are inaccessible (on a single computer only)

    On the second computer, I can access the drives normally.

    Clearly, I changed something on the computer problem, but I don't remember what it is.  Probably a registry setting.

    I can't open the drive.  I get the error 'Z:\ is not accessible.  Access denied'

    Although he is running as an administrator ,attempts to format the drive are unsuccessful.  This error is: "You have not sufficient rights to perform this operation"

    Attempts to access the drive through the command line are unsuccessful on the problem computer.

    The drive can be seen in disk management, but may not be formatted or partitioned here (computer problem only)

    On the first computer, everything is normal.  ERGO, the problem is with the second computer.

    Can anyone suggest where I should look in the registry (or elsewhere for that matter).

    Thank you for your help.

    In Vista and now Windows 7, I often get " is not accessible.  Access is denied. "while clicking on in Windows Explorer.  That shouldn't be possible, given that I am an administrator.  Is this one of those things where you explicitly specify Windows to run a program as an administrator?  I don't see an option "Run as Administrator" to the Windows Explorer.

    And under the C:\Users\myname folder, there are 2 folders "My Documents".  One of them I can access, but the other is a shortcut that I can't access.  What is the point of having 2 of them?

    Programs do not access them. They are used by Windows 7 when it handles the compatibility. This is why they are not visible by default.

    Your error message comes from the software Sonic-letter of mission which is part of the suite of Sonic RecordNow.

    I think that book books come with a pre installed = the version of Sonic, but I don't know if it includes DLA.

  • "C:\ is not accessible. Access is denied"error message

    original title: TEARING OUT MY HAIR - I'm a fool.

    I was playing with advanced sharing and privileges and now I can't access to my c drive.  I feel like a fool.  I don't know what I deleted, but it does not restore my access.  He said "C:\ is not accessible.  Access is denied... " I right click on the c drive and try to change the privileges.  For example, to provide access to everyone, users, guests, etc. - and the message I get is "an error has occurred while trying to change the admin part.  Access is denied"- HELP.  I'm so frustrated.

    In volume NTFS, only the owner of an object (file, folder,...) which can change permissions for this object. You must take possession of your C: drive somehow, after this only that you can grant permissions to users.

    Try to get into safe mode, log in as 'Administrator' (enable that account first if it is currently disabled). Then right click C:\ drive, click Properties. Go to the Security tab, and then click Advanced. Go to the owner tab, and then change the property to 'Administrator' first. Then, grant permissions like these for these users [CMIIW]:

    Authenticated users: read, execute, write, edit,
    Administrators: Full control
    TrustedInstaller: Full control
    SYSTEM: Full control
    Users: Read, execute

    Finally, change the owner once more to "TrustedInstaller".

  • c:\Documents and settings is not accessible. Access is denied

    Even if my user account appears under my being the administrator, it is still not allow me access to my documents and settings files.  It is said to "c:\documents and settings is not accessible. Access is denied. "When I came to my computer, I know I opened at least two accounts, both with full administrator access, and yet the account opens is called"Judy"which is my name and at the same time, I'm sure to set up he asked me who has computer it was, so I wrote my name, but when I connect to my computer the account that opens is called"Judy"that even if I never named an account, it is still the only account he allows me to open. When I go to the command prompt to change user names, the screen goes black, and this same account "Judy" appears towards the top and asks for my password.  Simply, it will not show two accounts that I actually put in place.  I followed the instructions from the answer to someone else who has had a similar problem and he showed how you can determine if the account you are using is a standard or administrative account.  I did what told him to do and he came that Judy was indeed an administrator account. I was also able to show the names of all accounts on this computer and stood in the two accounts I made, of which none were called Judy, so I know that these accounts are in there, somewhere and why they are not listed when I ask to change user accounts is a mystery to me.  I've been going around in circles with this.  Everybody out there familiar with this kind of madness?  Any help is appreciated.

    Documents and Settings is not a real file in Windows 7. It is a junction which is configured to allow existing programs to interface with the Windows 7 folder structure.

    Instead, Windows 7 uses these files:

    C:\Users\*your User Name * \My Documents

    and

    Username C:\Users\*Your * \Appdata

    (appdata is a hidden folder)

    Look in C:\Users to see which accounts exist.

    Also you can access the control panel > user accounts to edit.

  • MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "

    Hello

    So, here are the problems I encounter, and what I did to try to fix myself.
    Whenever I try to connect my MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "  This same thing happens everytime I try to put an SD card in the SD card slot.  However, despite this, I can plug my USB mouse and use it, as well as the keyboard and it records only.  I can also use the HDMI port to use my TV as a second monitor and, also, to record that.
    What I did to solve the problem, it is to restore the system to the previous times before that happened, did not.  I also went into the Device Manager and uninstalled and re installed, USB and SD card drivers.  I also tried something in the sense of taking control of the files via a right click on a folder and go to properties and then security and to the 'advanced settings', the problem with this situation is that I can't in readers at all.
    I am currently running Windows 7 (64 bit) on a laptop Lenovo, the computer itself is actually only a few months.  If someone knows something about this, please let me know.  Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, I don't remember the sequence that I used, but messages asked me to change the drive letter of the drive that I was using, so I changed it from E to F.
