You can expand a disk on a Linux VM online?

On Windows since at least 2008, you have been able to expand a disk on a VMware virtual machine (or any other virtualization/SAN LUNS), then expand the disk/volume in Windows without needing downtime and maintenance.

We have SLES 11 VM with ext3 partitions in their LUNs.  I'm sure there must be a way to do this.  Is this possible with ext3, do I have to use LVM, ext4, btrfs, I don't know.  I keep looking for it on the web and as soon as I think I found the answer there is a "now reboot the virtual machine" in there.  Sorry I don't have much Linux live as I do Windows.

This could work, but its not recommended without a reboot.

  • Is there a limit on the number of times you can use a disk operating system Windows 8 pro?

    So I got an operating system disk with my laptop, I used a disc of Windows 7 on it. My brother has used the disc 8.1 on its newly build pc, it worked. When I tried on my new pc it says that some files are missing or damaged. I wonder now if you can only use it once.

    Hello

    You can use several times on THE same machine. You can install on many machines, but you can turn on a SINGLE machine. In your case, the system thinks you want to update and it will not work. You must purchase the upgrade dics (DVD).

    Kind regards.

  • Checking system files on...- One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You can cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue. To skip disk checking, press a key in the second.

    The Windows boot splash screen appears and then I get the above message on a BACK screen when I start my laptop.  I am running Windows 7 64 bit... it does not recognize when I try to ignore it and it freezes.  I tried hard to stop and start again without luck to get past this screen.

    Suggestion:

    Hi Peter,.
    Try this:

    System Cleanup

    I would recommend making cleaning systems. (I did do at least once a month, more if I did a lot of Assembly and disassembly) Disk Clean up (best scan-disk) and Defrag.
    To make disk cleanup upward:
    On the left, click on "Start" then "all programs" then "Accessories" then "system tools."
    Here you can see the Disk Clean Up and Disk Defrag
    Click on disk clean up.
    SELECT which drive you want to clean, and then click 'OK' (after the process is over, come back and go to the next drive)
    You will see "calculate" let the work process and a screen will appear that has several folders and boxes beside them... check everything, unless there is something specific in one of the folders that you want to keep. " (Everything here was supposed to delete on its own)
    You see then "total amount of space that you win' click 'OK' and it will ask you if you want to remove files.
    Click Yes and the beginning of the process. Do this for all the partitions on your disk.
    Fragment of disks:
    Do the same above, but select Disk Defragmenter.
    You can see the percentage of your disks are fragmented.
    Then click "Scan now" ending
    Click on "defragment the disk)
    Restart the system.

    Hope this helps,

  • I am running vista home basic, how you can increase the size of the D: Recovery drive

    I am running vista home basic, how you can increase the size of the D: Recovery drive

    Hello

    You use the D: Partition of recovery in 3 different ways to reinstall the operating system.

    1. you press a particular key or key combination at startup, F10, F11, Alt + F10 etc. to begin the process of recovery in new condition (as you bought) in the event of system failure.

    2. start > programs > find software from the manufacturer of your computer > look for a recovery method

    3. you can do recovery disk to reinstall the operating system in case of hard drive failure.

    This will save you the purchase of the computer manufacturer's recovery disks.

    The manufacturer will advise you on the options

    See you soon.

  • need to fomat J: disk before you can use it?

    Hi all

    I have a SanDisk 8 GB flash drive that was working fine a few days but my computer asks me to format it before use. I am running Vista.
    Here is a list of the things I've tried and that did not work:
    1. try a different usb port
    2. try another computer.
    3. try another OS. I tried Win7, and I'll try xp tomorrow. I read that xp may be able to read but I doubt it.
    4 tried to rename the drive
    5 tried the chkdsk command.
    6. I tried Easeus partition. Another thread mentioned using the software to move the data to another drive before commissioning in shape, but he tells me that I have unallocated space research.

    More info. In disk management, it is said that he is in good health but in RAW format. and he did nothing about it. The only thing I have not tried it reads with LINUX. I won't be able to get my hands on a LINUX for a few weeks and I would like to have information on the flash player now.

    Is there another method that does not have a linux or formatting?

    Thank you.

    Hello MyridienS,

    If this happens on multiple machines, I think we can fairly say that the problem is the SanDisk card.

    So, what do we do?

    There are several third-party data recovery programs that can scan the drive and try to get the data out of it.  You can search these using http://www.bing.com.

    There may be other solutions that involve changing the MBR or ACB at the sector level, but that is beyond the scope of this forum - you can try the TechNet forums for that:

  • Browser Konqueror for Linux has a CPU limitation function useful for Web sites using Flash content. You can add such a feature in Firefox?

    I recently discovered that browser Konqueror for Linux can help the user to limit the CPU usage while visiting a Web site using flash technology by changing the settings in the Flash section and by adjusting the slider settings VERY HIGH to HIGH and AVERAGE and so on. It actually works and it doesn't have a direct impact on the overall performance for flash player, but it can lead to conflicts if other such extensions that add blocker or click-to-flash are also enabled.

    Maybe you can add a similar setting in Firefox in the browser or just as a useful addon or extension option section.

    Hi Michael,
    I love the sound of that. I found an add on which has Visual for the CPU usage as well as can be useful

    Topic: memory page also contains a detailed report that breaks down each process that occupies this space. I wonder if it is a supplement that taps by limiting these
    Something like limiter window and tab

    You can add an internal SSD to the envy of HP 750 - 197c Desktop that has a 2 TB drive installed?

    DMSIceman, welcome to the forum.

    Yes, you can move the HARD disk and install an SSD.  You will need to buy at least a 128 GB SSD.  Here is the data sheet for the computer.

    The best way to install an SSD is to leave the current HARD drive as it came from the factory.  Connect the SSD drive to another SATA port on the motherboard.  Install the software of Migration data provided by the SSD manufacturer on the HARD drive.  Once installed, open it and follow the instructions carefully.  You choose the SSD as a target.  After the data is transferred from the HDD to the SSD, you can disconnect the HARD drive and start the computer.  It should start on the SSD.  Then, you can disconnect the SSD to the first SATA connector and move to another Bay HARD drive and connect it to another SATA port on the motherboard.  You can use it for storage.

    I like the SSD Samsung EVO.  Samsung offers its data Migration software to clone HARD drive.  In addition, they provide their software Wizard to optimize the performance of the SSD.  You can find all the software at the bottom of the page in the link I provided for the EVO.  The Samsung SSD were good about starting in HP computers without changing the BIOS settings.  You will need to buy an adapter to allow the reader to 2.5 "to fit into a 3.5 Bay".

    Before you do anything with this player, you can search online for some data recovery utilities so that you can try to recover your data.
