VM shows two warehouses of data being in use, but use only one?

Hello

I am trying to migrate from VMFS3 to VMFS5 and perform this moving VMs to save some data warehouses and then delete/recreate the data with VMFS5 store.

So far so good, however, I have a VM that signals that it uses two data warehouses. The first is the datatore where it is in fact, the second is a data store where an ISO was mounted on the virtual machine. But even after deleting ISO the VM configuration and proceed to "client" the stills VM shows that store of data as being in use. Other virtual machines that I removed the ISOs don't exhibit this behavior later.

When I browse the data store, I don't see any references to this particular virtual machine - there is just the folder that contains the ISO standard.

Is it possible to enumerate what virtual machine actually uses the data store?

Thank you

Michael,

I don't know if it's documented anywhere. I saw this problem a few times with network connections, where the port group was changed to a virtual machine with snapshots.

    The New-VM cmdlet takes a single value of the parameter - data store and all of the virtual disks will be located on this data store.

    If I understand your request, you create a virtual machine with 2 virtual disks, each on a different data store.

    You can use the cmdlet New - hard drive for it.

    $datastore1 = get-datastore | where-object {$_.Name -eq "lun1"}
    $datastore2 = get-datastore | where-object {$_.Name -eq "lun2"}

  • Toshiba Bluetooth stack & motorcycle S805 two profiles - can use only one?

    Toshiba Bluetooth stack on IBM T42/Windows 2000 test. Motorola S805/multimedia headset supports two audio A2DP stereo of high quality and HFP used as a helmet.

    If I create * only * audio sink profile then I can log in and use the headphones (rather good sound!). If I create * only * a headset profile, then they work well for that, too (not very good sound, but convenient and two-way).

    I am able to create two connection profiles by linking it first as an Audio receiver, then the pairing again as a helmet. The two profiles now appear in the Bluetooth settings window. First of all, I confirm that neither the profile is connected. Now when I try to 'connect' to the headset, it "sounds" the helmet. However, when I press the headset button to accept the connection I get the following message:
    "Now, connect, please wait."
    and then
    "Helmets and headphones can not be used simultaneously. Finished using the headphones and then establish a connection.
    Now the headset (audio receiver) is connected instead of the helmet!

    Note that before I tried to connect to the headset there was no link at all (message is wrong). Also note that if there is only one connection profile (headset) then the headset will connect correctly.

    I want to be able to move quickly from a helmet (good sound quality for music) and headset (for Skype). Deletion and recreation of the connections are too slow, if Skype sounds while I'm listening to music. (the S805 will automatically switch mode headphones while listening to the music, if the call is from a third device such as a cell phone).

    Anyone know if the software can be configured to allow me to do this fast switching between profiles on the same device?

    Thank you and best regards,

    Jeff in Aloha, OR, USA.

    You must use the hands-free profile if it is supported also by your device for VoIP instead of the headset profile!

  • TDMS file creates several tabs data. You want to create only one.

    Hello NOR community,

    I am currently using the DAQ Assistant with my pots of chain record travel over a long time interval (see annex VI). I then use the vi "Write to a file as" to save the data in a file TDMS (see 'Write the file settings' photo attached for all the parameters chosen for the writing of the file). The file is written, however when I open the PDM file, the document creates a tab in Excel for every second of recorded data (please see attachment ""). It seems that the TDMS file is grouping all data every second, and then by creating a new group of data.

    How can I get the file to write all data on a single tab instead of creating multiple? I don't want to concatenate hundreds of tabs in a single great sheet.

    Thank you

  • How use only one key USB to transfer 'easy' data once it's full.

    I try to do a Windows easy transfer to transfer all my files from my old PC with XP (17 GB) to my new one, which has Vista.  I am using a portable USB drive that can hold 8 GB.  After the first round of copy of the files on the disk, inserting in the new PC and transfer them, I insert the drive in that for the second round, and of course, it is full.

    I don't know how to clear some space on the flash drive.  I can just erase the entire disk, but I do not know what records among MigWiz records that have been created, containing the files I transferred and can now delete.  I was hoping that the Assistant could guide me through this option.

    After that a USB cable, I had did not work, this is my second method of 'transfer '.  It is certainly NOT a process very "easy".  Help, please.

    Hello kimikat, welcome.

    MigWiz will pack all your data migration in a single very compressed file. Therefore, there is no direct way to take the content. My recommendation would be to use MigWiz transfer on all your user settings and then whatever it is like music, pictures or video - transfer on separately.

    Try it and let us know.

  • Hi, I just upgraded from 6.1 to 6.4 LR LR. When importing new files LR6.4 cannot rename my files with a specific date format (import uses only the original name).

    Hello

    No problem with the LR 6.1, but now (LR6.4), it seems impossible to rename my files with a specific format (yyyy-dd-hhmmss and a suffix) importing memory cards. LR imports only files with names of origin. And I have a lot of files to rename...

    I hope that someone knows what's going on.

    Jean

    Jean,

    We found a similar question which is being implemented. If you shoot images at once in the first and jpg format and then import them using the option of renaming, the question is in place.

    Could you please check if you use the option "make a second copy? If so, please it deselect. It should solve the problem.

    The issue is addressed in Lightroom.

    Thank you

  • HELP I'm a data merge and it gives me only one record per page!

    I really need help here.  I do a fusion of data and that you have selected the options to make more than one record per page, but instead, it is to its own page, merge.  Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

    CS6 seems to have some difficulty to know when there is enough space. The simple solution is to the margins on the right and down the 0 value in the layout options.  And several record preview is known to be buggy. It is best to take a leap of faith and the merger without preview or cancel after you have previewed and before the actual merger.

  • vCenter showing this vm in two data stores (a used display 0.00 B of 12.66 GB space)

        $datastores = $cluster | Get-VMHost | Get-Datastore
        foreach($datastore in $datastores){

  • How to read the two columns of data in a file of PDM.

    Hi all

    I am reading two data columns for the 2nd of a PDM file two sheets, as shown below.

    Two columns of data must then be shared so they can be displayed in a xy chart and also apply a linear adjustment VI. I implemented the graph xy and linear adjustment using a txt file (see below), therefore all the outputs work, however this application with a tdms file turns a little more tax.

    So, essentially, that I don't know how read the correct leaf and therefore the columns in the PDM file and then how to produce the graph xy and linear adjustment of the data types produce. Here's my current attempt, which produces several errors of the type of terminal, as well as not being able to select the exact data in the PDM.

    Any help/suggestions/example vi on this asap would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

  • VMDK is not displayed when you add the drive but shows on browse the data store

    This may be a simple solution but my forehead hurts to hit my head against the wall and need your expert help.

    Environment: running ESX 4.0 with 4 nodes in the cluster.  Each node in the cluster has only one HBA card with double fiber connections that connect to both sides of FC SAN.  There is not a fiber between nodes and SAN switch, so direct connect.  Built two systems to support Exchange 2007 using the CCS.  Using a FC SAN to shared disk space and iSCSI for disk space not shared.

    Problem: have added 5 player glow spaces on System #1 using RDM and they appear.  Try to load the same readers in the System #2.  I am able to load 4 readers in the System #2 but the 5th disc (which is in fact the reader 3rd in the series) refuses to show when I added the player.  The change settings - & gt; Add Hard Drive - & gt; Use the existing - & gt; Open the data store and the folder where the virtual machine from the system files and the folder where the LUN mapping lie as they are stored with the system.  But at the opening of this file the LUN mapping in question is absent.  All others appear.  However when I right click to browse the data store outside of the settings and go to the folder where the LUN mapping for the virtual drive and it appears.

    Attempts to resolve:

    (1) have removed the drive and delete system #1 data store and we readded to the system = & gt; nothing.

    (2) removed the disk without delete system data store #1 and it added (thus creating two virtual disks in the file for the system to the same LUN... xxx_3.vmdk and xxx_7.vmdk) = & gt; without success.  (xxx_3.vmdk, nor xxx_7.vmdk appear when trying to add a player)

    (3) tried to use a system not intended within the CSC Exchange cluster, attemtped to add the xxx_3.vmdk or xxx_7.vmdk and both appear as an option.

    I am at a total loss.  Do I need to trash the system no. 2 and rebuild?  Is there a problem of possible system configuration #2 that does not allow him to see the two virtual drives?  The #2 system configuration is corrupt?  Do I have to power System #2 power on and off and then try to add readers?  I can the virtual cycle vCenter system?  Or I am much more of a noob that the answer is with myself and I can't see it?  Any help would be welcome.

    When you want to use RDM on hosts, please make sure lun the same number on hosts.
