    Hi there Luke. Thanks for the answer but it has bred a new problem as good as it was. I've shrunk the second volume (E) down to 20GB exactly, however there is now around 53gb of unallocated space. When I right click on the C partition the option for extending is greyed out and it wont let me allocate the 53gb to it.
    Any ideas on why this might be?
    Wish I knew more about computers! :(

  • How to change the partition type on a table with data

    Hi
    I have a table, which is partitioned by list on date column. The table contains large volume of data.
    My requirement is to make the list partition into range on the same date column.
    I am working on Oracle10g
    Kindly advice

    partitioned by list on date How many distinct DATE values do you have ? Each DATE value would be a Partition in List Partitioning.
    Why do you need to convert this to RANGE Partitioning ? How many DATE values do you expect in the table in the future ?
    You can use DBMS_REDIFINITION to copy a LIST Partitioned Table to a RANGE Partitioned Table and then switch the tables at the end.
    See examples (where the source table is not partitioned)
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/partitioning-an-existing-table.php
    http://uhesse.com/2010/02/15/partitioning-a-table-online-with-dbms_redefinition/
    But before converting I would justify why a LIST Partitioned Table be converted to RANGE Partitioned. Do you have Date-Range queries ?

  • HT1338 how to change the partition of bootcamp

    I install bootcamp for windows 7, now i find i need a biger partition

    Not at all easy. Once Windows has been installed, it will always want to take up the same amount of space when restored.
    Winclone is the only app I know of that can accomplish a resize of an installed Windows partition. I've used it to shrink my Win 7 install from 300 GB to a 50 GB partition.
    Instructions here. You will of course first need to purchase Winclone. Make sure to back up everything first, including making your initial backup of your Windows partition with Winclone.

  • How to create recovery partition in new(changed) HDD.

    my new HP pavilion g4 laptop HDD have crased, then I replce it by HP care. I upload original win 7 by recovery disk(DVD) but when I open my computer it shows only one partition (C drive, there is no recovery partition and HP tool.
    So how to creates recovery partition by recovery disk(DVD)...........please help me.

    Creating the recovery partition
    Right-click the start orb, and start 'Disk Management'.
    Shrink the C: drive by let's say 20-30GB.
    Then create a new Partition and assign the R: label to it and name it RECOVERY.
    Then open command prompt as administrator and type: 'recimg /createimage <directory>',
    In this case: 'recimg /createimage R:\' to save it on the new partition.
    This step may consume a lot of time.
    Now we need to register the newly created recovery image: 'recimg /setcurrent <directory>'
    'recimg /setcurrent R:\'
    Voila you are done.
    Restoring from recovery partition
    You may want to use this restoring method by default, because it is the easiest way to do so if your recovery partition is still intact. If not, look at the other recovery methods to see which suits you best. This is usually the way you reset or refresh your Windows installation if you purchase a computer from a brand like Lenovo instead of building one yourself
    Press the Windows-key + C to open the charms bar or swipe in from the right.
    Click Settings.
    Click Change PC Settings.
    Click Update & Recovery in the menu on the left.
    Click Recovery.
    If all your documents are safe and sound in your user folder, you can use Refresh your PC without affecting files. However I still recommend taking a back-up... If you want to do a complete reinstallation of Windows and also clean your user folder in the process then choose Remove everything and reinstall Windows.

    Can any one please give me some solutions regarding how to change datasource name based on the partition in
    configplan.
    can't we do this in configuration plan?

    If you want to change template based on parameter. you have to use below syntax
    v_layout boolean
    V_LAYOUT:= FND_SUBMIT.add_layout(template_appl_name => 'SQLAP' -- application short name
    ,template_code => 'HUBAPAPN' -- template name

  • How do I change the partition scheme to use GUID partition Table.

    How do I change the partition scheme to use GUID partition Table so I can get Snow Leopard to download on my 10.5 disk.
    When I insert the disk it asks me to select  the disk where you want to install MAC OS X.It only give me one option the 10.5.
    when I click on it it says...
    "10.5" can't be used because it doesn't use the GUID Partition Table scheme.
    Use Disk Utility to change the partition scheme.  Select the disk, choose the Partition tab, select the Volume Scheme and then click Options. 
    I tried to do what it says and I can not find what it is saying.  This is the info about my MacBook.
    Model Name: MacBook
      Model Identifier: MacBook4,1
      Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
      Number Of Processors: 1
      Total Number Of Cores: 2
      L2 Cache: 3 MB
      Memory: 4 GB
      Bus Speed: 800 MHz
      Boot ROM Version: MB41.00C1.B00
      SMC Version (system): 1.31f0
    Thank you for your help!

    The GUID partition option is one of three possible choices (click the "Options" button in the Partition") menu - be careful to have a full backup as changing the partition scheme will force an erasure on the disk. Take a look at this Apple support article for more complete information:
    Firmware updates for Intel-based Macs require a GUID partition scheme - Apple Support
    Ignore the stuff about firmware updates and just look at the changing GUID partition scheme.
    Good luck - and don't forget about the full backup BEFORE making this sort of change.

  • How to change the letter on external HDD

    My external hard drive was originally on the F drive and with this I had all my iTunes music too. However, for some reason, my computer has stopped recognizing the F drive; the following message is displayed when trying to open this drive:
    "The drive or the network connection that the shortcut 'F Drive.ink' refers to is unavailable. Make sure that the disk is properly inserted or the network resource is available, and then try again."
    The problem I now have is that the external hard drive is now the G drive and iTunes doesn't seem to recognize the path (G:\iTunes) I have told it to use, i.e., my music is not loading properly and only a small fraction is playable.
    Can anyone help me on this matter?

    Hi
    I would recommend changing the external drive letter (G:) back to F.
    Do you know how to do this?
    After the external HDD was connected you should access the disk management and there you will see the HDD (single partitions) and the other drives.
    Then you should mark the external HDD and should change the letter to F.
    Possibly the F letter was reserved for another drive.
    In such case you have to unlock the F letter by assigning another letter to the drive which uses the F letter.
    For details please check the Microsoft knowledge document;

  • How to use Oracle partitioning with JPA @OneToOne reference?

    Hi!
    A little bit late in the project we have realized that we need to use Oracle partitioning both for performance and admin of the data. (Partitioning by range (month) and after a year we will move the oldest month of data to an archive db)
    We have an object model with an main/root entity "Trans" with @OneToMany and @OneToOne relationships.
    How do we use Oracle partitioning on the @OneToOne relationships?
    (We'd rather not change the model as we already have millions of rows in the db.)
    On the main entity "Trans" we use: partition by range (month) on a date column.
    And on all @OneToMany we use: partition by reference (as they have a primary-foreign key relationship).
    But for the @OneToOne key for the referenced object, the key is placed in the main/source object as the example below:
    @Entity
    public class Employee {
    @Id
    @Column(name="EMP_ID")
    private long id;
    @OneToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY)
    @JoinColumn(name="ADDRESS_ID")
    private Address address;
    EMPLOYEE (table)
    EMP_ID FIRSTNAME LASTNAME SALARY ADDRESS_ID
    1 Bob Way 50000 6
    2 Sarah Smith 60000 7
    ADDRESS (table)
    ADDRESS_ID STREET CITY PROVINCE COUNTRY P_CODE
    6 17 Bank St Ottawa ON Canada K2H7Z5
    7 22 Main St Toronto ON Canada     L5H2D5
    From the Oracle documentation: "Reference partitioning allows the partitioning of two tables related to one another by referential constraints. The partitioning key is resolved through an existing parent-child relationship, enforced by enabled and active primary key and foreign key constraints."
    How can we use "partition by reference" on @OneToOne relationsships or are there other solutions?
    Thanks for any advice.

  • How to change the path of sysprep files that were copied to reference computer when i capture the image from reference.

    Dears ,,
    how to change the path that sysprep were copied to reference computer when i capture the image from reference.
    Should i modify some codes in LTIAPPLY.wsf? how to modify it?
    Thanks.

    Sysprep and capture has *Three* steps.
    1. Run sysprep on the local machine (easy).
    2. Copy WinPE down to the local machine so we can reboot into winpe for capture.
    3. Capture the drive in an *offline* state from within WinPE.
    What is most likely happening is that you are having problems with step #2. 100MB is *WAY* too small to copy down WinPE. By default MDT will make this System partition much bigger, 499MB. IF you install Windows 7 from the default media. IT will only create
    a 100MB partition.
    By default MDT 2012 Update 1 and greater *should* recover to a fallback drive with the OS on it, however if you are running older versions that might not happen correctly.
    If you are still having problems, copy your BDD.log file to a public share like OneDrive and copy the link here.

  • How to change to ssd on macbook

    hi im very new to changing parts on my mac and wanted to know how i change my hhd to a ssd and what to do after i turn it on ,iv looked on the net but cant find any clear help ,many thanks marcus

    Visit OWC where you can find some tutorials on disassembly and installing drives in laptops. The user manual for your computer may also provide some information on replacing a drive.
    You should pick up an external enclosure for your HDD so you can boot the computer with it as well as use it for your files.
    When you install a new, bare disk drive there are two things to do:
    Prepare the drive
    Install OS X
    Drive Preparation and New System Installation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    7. After formatting quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X.

  • Changing the partition format without reinstall the Mac OS X

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to change the file system format of the partition without needed to reinstall the OS X ?
    E.g. "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" > "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)"
    this link will give an idea of list of file system format available http://images.macworld.com/images/legacy/2006/10/images/content/pickformat.jpg
    The main reason I need this is because of I wish to avoid reinstallation as it take time to install and update to latest patch...
    I have MacBook with 3 partitions with formated to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" on all 3 partitions. 1st and 2nd partition installed Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7, and created an image (by using carbon copy cloner) for each partition and saved it into 3rd partition as backup.
    I tried to below but it doesn't help:
    1. Boot into 10.7.
    2. Erase the 1st partition 10.6, reformat it to "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled)".
    3. Restore 10.6 image that created previously.
    4. After restore completed, the 1st partition file system format back to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".
    Is there's anyway to change the partition file system format without needed reinstall Mac OS X ?

    Or is there any backup tool that it will only back file and folder level but not file system format ??
    That what all backup tools do.
    If so, then I can create a backup image of the existing entire partition file and folder only, then reformat the partition to case-sensitive, then restore back the file and folder...
    Yes, that's what I'm suggesting. Be aware that it's a one-way conversion. Once you have a case-sensitive file system, you generally can't go back to case-insensitive without losing data. I hope you have a good reason for wanting to do this and that you know how to deal with the problems it may cause.
