What is 'Migration to cold with resettlement of the file'?

Hello

I just read http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1005241 on the migration of virtual machines with attached RDM. The document states that the following is true when you are migrating cold with moving file.

When you are migrating cold a VM with RDM attached to it, the content of the raw LUN mapped by ROW is copied into a new hard to destination file, effectively converting or cloning a raw LUN in a virtual disk. This also applies when the virtual machine is not moving between ESX hosts. In this process, your raw LUN origin is left intact. However, the virtual machine is more reads or writes to it. Instead, the newly created virtual disk is used.
I just tested this and migrated cold a VM with vRDM attached to another data store. However, the vRDM has not converted to a virtual drive, but remained as a vRDM. Is the "Cold Migration with file transfer" something different than right-clicking on the VMS in vCenter, choose "migrate" then 'Datastore change' or 'change of host and data store '?
Thank you
Michael

Hello

Glad to hear that it worked for you, yes the document isn't very desciptive processes to do it, the only reason that I know how to do it is previous experience.

  • What makes "new queue path" to write to the File.vi worksheet? I need a better explanation than what is given.

    You are looking for assistance.

    What makes "new queue path" to write to the File.vi worksheet?  I need a better explanation than what is given.

    Thank you.

    You can call this function without wiring to a path of the input file.  If this is the case, the function prompts the user for input file using a pop up dialog box.  If a file is selected and you press OK, it is the path of the file that is out of the function as the new path of the file.  If you press the button cancel instead of OK, the "not a path" constant is the new output file pathname.  If the function is called with a wired file path entry dialog box appears, the same path of file entry becomes the new output file path.

  • A problem with cc libraries "the file does not exist, you may not, or the file may be in use by another application".

    I'm working on our catalogue on INDesign CC 2015, I have a links to my libraries, I worked every day without any problem. I work on a Mac and Win system, I put the file on my disk hard or on files of cc.

    2 days ago, I opened the file and as a result with any missed links, when I tried to re-link on my library the program shown Indesign files missed this message "the file does not exist, you may not, or the file may be in use by another application", I contacted Italian cat Adobe they suggested me to change the name of the file I did but nothing happened, they suggested to create a new owner of the computer, but it did not work because I work within a team and the file is opened to others of collaboration. I have 333 links so what I shell do? Please help me, I have to finish this work, we need print it out as soon as possible.

    I had this problem after an Indesign file that we've been working on the opening of my colleague. She has made a few changes and then when I went back to work on the file of the library of all the links were broken and I had him "you don't have to leave."

    I've corrected the problems by opening Illustrator and rename the library. InDesign revived and everything from the library was connected properly.

  • Install HRCS9.0 and PT8.53 with Linux question: the files intiPT853.ora and initHRCS90.ora: exceeded maximum number of DB_FILES

    People,

    Hello. I installed PeopleTools 8.53 with Oracle Linux 5.10 successfully. The PeopleTools everything works fine in the browser at the beginning.

    After that I installed HCM and Solution Campus 9.0 Instance of database named HRCS90 in Linux successfully, PeopleTools 8,53 Database Instance PT853 can not be mounted. The error message is less to:

    SQL > startup
    ORACLE instance started.

    In the home/user/OracleDB_Home/dbs/initPT853.ora file, its parameter db_files has 3 values: small 400, 1021 medium and large 1500. The initial value is 1021 and it works correctly at the beginning.  But after the implementation of another instance of HRCS90, the above error message and instance PT853 is not mounted. I change the value of db_files 1021 to 1500 in the initPT853.ora file and restart the Linux operating system. But get the same error as below:

    SQL > startup
    ORACLE instance started.

    In the home/user/OracleDB_Home/dbs/initHRCS90.ora file, its parameter db_files has 3 values: small average 80, 1500 400 and large. I use db_files = 400 and it works properly. I start instance HRCS90 right after the above error message as below:

    As we see above, the HRCS90 instance work corretly, and PT853 does not start. Parameter DB_FILES the file initPT853.ora has a problem.

    My question is:

    1021 and 1,500 is not enough for a starting PT853 instance, what value should be used for the the file initPT853.ora DB_FILES?

    Thank you.

    I'm sorry, but I do not understand that "Instance" means here.

    > In the file home/user/OracleDB_Home/dbs/initPT853.ora, its parameter db_files has 3 values: small 400, 1021 medium and large 1500.

    Are you do not use a spfile? The file actually contains 3 values? What's the latest? Have you checked the value in the database side "see the db_files parameter?

    > But after set up another instance of HRCS90, the above error message and instance PT853 is not mounted

    Still, I don't know what that means.

    > In the file home/user/OracleDB_Home/dbs/initHRCS90.ora, its parameter db_files has 3 values: small average 80, 1500 400 and large. I use db_files = 400 and it works properly.

    Once again, 3 values? What's the latest? Have you checked the value in the database side "see the db_files parameter?

    > As we see above, the HRCS90 instance work corretly, and PT853 does not start. Parameter DB_FILES the file initPT853.ora has a problem.

    Again, I don't understand what exactly are HRCS90 and PT853. Can not help.

    > 1021 and 1,500 is not enough for a starting PT853 instance, what value should be used for the the file initPT853.ora DB_FILES?

    I am sure, you have not a problem with this setting, 1500 files in the database is fairly large. Recently, I've built a demo, the default 1021 was ok for me. You should have done something wrong somewhere.

    Thank you very much.

    MBD, welcome to the forum.

    The video slot is a PCI Express x 16.  You should not buy a video card that is larger than 8 "long.  Otherwise, it should not be in space.  I like XFX, BFG, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.

    I like the OCZ and Corsair PSU.  They are very good manufacturers.  Their products will provide a clean and stable power supply for your system.  I suggest to measure the existing PSU and comparing them to the one you choose.  This will eliminate the purchase of a power supply that does not fit in the space.

    Please let us know if this solved your problem or not.

  • Need help with information about the file

    IM and only know basic computer skills. Im having a problem with obtaining correct file information.  I only use MS MediaPlayer.  I have amassed a decent library.  Over the years, I've downloaded music from CD, limewire and what is called a torrent.  My daughter would be to get an education, but she managed.  Songs from a CD are not a problem, but other sources, the news of music might be incorrect or missing.  On my hard drive and the Member for information often is listed as unknown or various artist.  I edited the info on the Congressman, but he will not put these songs in order. Always the groups to the title of an album.  I can't change the information in the properties.  I think I would need to correct the source info in my library, but I don't know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated my OCD insists that my library be in order. Thank you!

    Liner,

    Musician is working hard and deserves to be paid for their work like everyone else, and unless they offer their recordings for free, whenever you download a torrent or P2P service like Limewire, you're basically stealing their intellectual property and taking food off of their plate.

    Most of the people don't post on a Microsoft Forum, ask the help of cataloguing of media that were obtained from these types of sources. In addition, the sources you cite could also distribute unwanted hitchikers (virus, malicious software) as well as the music.

    If you buy the CD you got with torrents and Limewire, you would probably best chance to get the metadata. And it would be "the right thing to do."
