• How long does take to Clean Up Virtual Machine and recover disk space?  Take a long time.

  I just upgraded from Fusion 4 to 6.  Before converting my GB 131 VM version 6 I did a Clean Up because he says I have 9 GB of usable space.  I don't know how long it takes to run.  He has worked for more than 20 minutes, but there seems to be no way to determine if something is happening.  It simply shows a window 'Reclaiming Disk Space... "with no way to cancel out.  The size of the file and the date/time of the VM file does not change.  Activity monitor shows between 3% and 5% of the CPU with 13 to 15 of son used.

  I saved the file to the virtual machine.

  When you become concerned that nothing happens?  How to stop the process?

  Thank you.

  Thanks WoodyZ.  No additional help is needed.  I now have the answer.  It took about an hour and a half to reclaim the space.  All right and that patience is a virtue.  (Windows 7-64) virtual machine starts very well.  I hope this helps other post to know that it can take some time.  It would be nice if there was a progress meter or something to indicate something constructive.

• VMWare EsXi 5.1.0 disk space

  Hello

  I have the following situation. A VM server EsXi 5.1.0 with two virtual machines.

  A virtual machine has two virtual disks of type thick lazy disposition to zero.

  The bootdrive is 1 hard disk drive HDD 2 data. From 1 to 80 GB hard drive put in service then the hard drive 2 has 120 GB put in service. I managed to increase the 80 GB with 10 GB drive because there was still space available in the data store so 2 months ago, I increased to 90 GB drive has worked perfectly.

  In the operating system on drive C (disc 1) I had only 3 GB of free again so I need more space, so that the data drive (disc 2) had 30 GB of free space.

  I thought when I decrease disk 2 with 10 GB and disk increase 1 with 10 GB of all be good. In the VSphere client, I edited the disksspace, but I noticed that I could not reduce the disk 2?

  Also, I could not return my settings? So now on the virtual computer will not boot and I get error ' not enough space on the data store.

  Can I return my settings and get the disc about the size of the 'old '?

  Thank you

  Reduce a virtual disk is unfortunately not supported in the GUI (and the CLI). In order to decrease the size, you can use VMware Converter for example.

  Anyway, what you can do to be able to turn on the virtual computer as soon as possible - assuming that the host is not part of a cluster and you have not enough memory - is to put a reserve of memory for the virtual machine. The disk space required for the virtual machine swap file, which is created once the virtual machine is running - is equal to the amount of provisioned VM memory minus the reserved memory. So if you change this setting in order to reserve any memory, the paging file will not require any disk space.

  Note that with very low available space on the data store, you can run into issues when you create snapshots!

• Disk space decreases in VM

  Hello.

  I have a Win7 and XP - VM host.

  When I copy and paste the form VM - XP to Win7-host decreases the space in my host and I have to manually clean the file c:\users\ < username > \AppData\Local\Temp\vmware-< username > \VMwareDnd .

  But when I copy and paste from Win7-host of the virtual XP machine - VM disk space decreases too and I got a space error output.

  What is the file that I have to clean in XP - VM?

  Thank you.

  For Windows XP, you can copy and paste the %TEMP%\VMwareDnD into the Windows Explorer address bar and press ENTER.

  Or for example: C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Temp\VMwareDnD

  Also make sure you have enough free space in the file systems operating system invited to copy the size of the files you are copying even after deletion of VMwareDnD which is supposed to automatically fade

• Wasted VM analyzes disk space?

  Can someone explain the query to the following analysis:

  "For each data store, virtual machines have wasted disk space?

  It shows the value '0' in the ' waste | Disk space | "Total" column  I know we have a ton of VM out there that is attributed to the way too space-wise. We are trying to identify that VM would be good candidates for a provisioning and reclamation.

  Thank you!

  Dennis

  VCOPS determines the waste of disk space by looking at the virtual machines that have slowed down or turned off for long periods of time. Is this the case in your configuration? Otherwise, you will not see a value of waste of disk space.

• EMAIL SECURITY VIRTUAL APPLIANCE 7.2.2

  We have implemented this product as our field inbound/outbound MTA. We have it talk to LDAP to the Zimbra server. The virtual computer is configured in the "All-in-One" configuration, and our user Zimbra's email accounts are in a subdomain. When an administrator logs into the device, we can see all messages from spam for users with a normal e-mail as [email protected]. How do we get the Sonicwall appliance to map the address enter the real address in the LDAP protocol?

  SonicWALL support has been unable to understand. I asked if we should create a rule inbound rewrite domain.com to the sous-domaine.domaine.com and they said no. I had to create an outbound rule for work.

  Thank you

  Email Security is only configured in the actual LDAP query LDAP information.

  If this is not correct, so I used a LDAP browser to get a LDIF from the LDAP server to see what attribute is assigned to the correct email address then set the LDAP request in e-mail security to use this attribute.

• compaction of disk space is removing the last 6 months of emails and put them in the trash. He has never done this before.

  When I compact my disk space, it deletes all previous 6 months emails in the trash. He's never done this before and has since a few months I do not more. all compact space solutions without losing everything?

  Compaction doesn't send your mail in the trash. Those are backup files in case something like this happens.

  Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.

  Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :

  Recovery methods:

  If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.

  To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

  Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.

  Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.

  First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.

  If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.

  If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
   
  If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:

  DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
  http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

  And see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

  A general warning to help avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  And backup often.

• Virtualized temporary Internet Files eat up disk space. How can I stop this?

  Have encountered a problem of memory on my C drive and the holding of all recommendations usual cleaning only manages to free a few hundred MB. My hard drive is partitioned into a C and an E drive (each with 116 GB). I use Vista and Internet Explorer. (As far as I know, this is not a problem of RAM and my computer to not walk slowly.)

  The number of programs and files on my C drive not could represent almost 116 GB of memory, but I could find no other possible reason for my low disk space... until...

  I went to the guest orders and managed to do list all in the C drive. Then I spotted a directory which seems to contain a HUGE 94 GB of memory on the C drive. The exact name/address was as follows: C:\users\Kevin\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Virtualized\C\Users\Kevin\Appdata\Local\FLVService. The list of files in this directory have been mainly youtube and almost all the other videos I've seen last year! (This folder does not appear in Windows Explorer.)

  Then, these videos are stored in virtual memory? They take place that much space? (The term 'virtual' throws me a bit). I can delete this file safely and how? And, finally, how to stop what is happening yet?

  So, thank you for reading this far and I would be really grateful for any help on this matter.

  Kevin.

  What problem you encounter when you try to delete the files?  FreeCorder has some options, you can use to purge or otherwise control the cache / repository it uses? That seems to be the easiest way to get rid of files and recover disk space.  Otherwise, uninstall (and reinstall maybe later) may present you with an option to clear the cache, the program uses.

• How to expand your virtual hard disk while host hard disk space is not enough?

  People,

  Hello. I use VM Player 3. My host computer is Windows 7 and VM is Oracle Linux 5. I need to expand the virtual hard drive Oracle Linux 5 from 100 GB to 150 GB. When I click on VM > Settings > hard drive > utilities > expands...

  The error message:

  There is not enough space on the file system for the selected operation.

  To after my understanding, we have enough room to store the VHD original more expanded VHD.

  This means that the free space on the host needs to be 100 GB + 150 = 250 GB

  The total size of the hard disk of the Windows 7 host is 284 GB. The VM already occupies 100 GB of 284 GB. The maximum free space is 184 GB less space and boot OS. This means that I can't develop the 100 GB to 150 GB VHD.

  But I have to expand the virtual hard disk! I don't know if there are other ways to expand the virtual hard disk.

  My question is:

  Folk understand some ways to expand the virtual hard drive ranging from 100 GB to 150 GB drive hard host is only 284 GB?

  Thanks in advance.

  You explained, it is the behavior with monolithic virtual disks, which is a unique hard file. Because the file requires more space for its metadata at the beginning of the file, all the blocks of data must be copied to a new file. With the format of sparse file 2 GB virtual disks can be extended without the need to copy the data into a new file hard, because each the hard contains its own metadata. In case you don't have at least ~ 100GB of disk space you can use vmware-vdiskmanager convert/clone the virtual drive command line utility in a format of 2 GB sparse file, delete the original virtual disk (after saving), then use vmware-vdiskmanager again to rename the new virtual disk to the old name. Once done, you will be able to expand the virtual disk as required.

• Output to email disk space

  I hope it's an easy one, just something miss me.  I would run a script as a scheduled task, the script asks a group of disk space servers and for each server whose disk space is below a certain level, it would send an e-mail separated on this server.  For example, if I have 5 servers having a disc with less than 20% free, I want to get 5 separate emails

  That's the Basic script I've worked with, so far, it works very well, but what happens if ANY server has a drive of less than 20% it sends only 1 email with the $name variable in the subject being the last server disk space is less than 20%

• How to check disk space total used by virtual machine

  Dear team,

  I rec was a demand of the customer, he ask us to share the total disk space used by a virtual machine. I don't have any credentials to the total used space of control to verify. Is there a way I can check the disk space total used by the virtual machine offline.

  Note: we have implemented a virtual machine with the thin disk.

  concerning

  Mr. Vmware

  When you say that you have no credentials, I guess that this is designed for the guests, rather than to the ESXi hosts/vCenter Server operating systems! You can see the disk space used in the data store browser, executing CLI ls-lisa or by using a tool like RVTools third 3rd.

• Upgrade to 5.1 constantly cause 'snapshot of disk space' enabled on each virtual machine

  Hello
  Since our upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 all my virtual machines get alarms for "Flash disk space" even if none of them have any pictures taken. Even after acknowledge, and clear all alarms it will return.
  It also triggered the alarm directly after I deployed a new virtual machine from a template.
  I have not upgraded VMware tools on any of these virtual machines at the moment.

  Anyone else encounter this problem and might have a solution.

  Others just going to have to revisit VMware the phone since this flood of our mailbox to support at this time with false alarms.

• Increase the disk space on a virtual computer which was extracted

  I have my computer running virtual Windows 7 checked. I then checked back in the VM. I need to increase disk space on drive C (the winSxS directory seems to never stop growing). But there is a snapshot on the disc 'View Local Mode of instantaneous anchorage'. What are the consequences of the removal of the snapshot myself in order to increase the size of the disk? Throw this out of sync between my laptop and the virtual computer and require all of ~ 30 GB to download again?

  Hello
  If a replication extracted from a desktop computer, a snapshot of the local desktop is created and then the changes are replicated with the data center.
  If you delete the snapshot, you ensure that you validate the changes.  This force probably allows you to download all of the Office during the next Check-Out operation.

• Help wanted | How to increase virtual disk space

  IM using ubuntu as my client machine and esxi 4.1 running on the server dell 2850. My image is initially sized like 15 GB, but I want to expand to 100 GB, which is the amount available in the actual physical drives attached to the server.

  If I try to change the disk space by changing the settings it does not change the internal space used by ubuntu. ?

  Can someone help me how can I change the settings for the virtual disk grows as the capacity of the physical drives increases?

  Thank you

  If you originally created a thin provisioned disk then it will behave as you describe, but you still need to expand the space inside your file of Ubuntu system using gparted. Download the live CD of gparted.
