If I try to uninstall VMwrae tools, I can’t remove it with this message: “setup failed to determine which VMware product this virtual machine is running on”
How can I fix the problem?

Ah, yes.
SCVMM does not use Disk2VHD and removes all the VMware stuff for you (since you mention it) - oh, but only prior to 2012 R2. Um, yea. But SCVMM 2012 does.
There are tools that convert the VMDK to VHD.
You can use Disk2VHD if yon convert within the VM and then find a way to copy out (or present another volume to the VM and write the VHD to that).
You can copy out the VMDK, mount it, take a WIM image of it, and then apply that WIM image to a VHD.
Some backup utilities convert for you.
The big hitch is older operating systems and moving from a SCSI boot device to an IDE one (ESX built VMS usually have a SCSI boot disk).
If you are trying to stick with free tools, most of your options involve creativity.

How to use "Start synchronous Call" to run a subVi and keep timeout event in Main vi still running?
Hi, All
I have a application need periodically check an instrument status and I put it in the "Timeout Event" in main vi. I also need call some subVis for configuration etc. Somehow when I called those subvi, the Timeout event in my main vi was not running. Then I use " Start Asynchronous Call" function to call the subVis. Turns out it works fine with some subvis without return value, but not as expected with "return value-needed" subvis.
I attached a simple test, my main vi call two dlg subvis: AboutDlg.vi and SettingsDlg.vi. In the timeout event, I just use a counter for simulation. When you run it, you can see the counter keep counting when the AboutDlg.vi was called, but stopped when SettingsDlg.vi was called.
As I remembered, someone suggested to use Queue to pass return value, but I don't know how to implement it here.
Anyone has any suggestions about it?
Thank you very much.

AsyCallTest.llb 108 KBTry playing with this - I have modified your code to poke a Q in there.
You will want to change the clusters to more useful datatypes (maybe enum and variant so you can unbundle variants depending on enum input), you will want to type def the clusters to make it easier to maintain and you will NEED to handle the sitaution where the called VI is left open on program close - i couldn't be bothered as this was not your immediate issue)
Hope this give you some Ideas - totalyy untested but should work.

Converting physical servers to hyper-v hosts
Hi,
Can we
We are running windows hyper-v server 2012 R2 and having many VM's running on the hypervisor. we would like to convert few of our physical machines to virtual.
how do we convert a physical sever to hyper-v virtual machine ?
what factors should we take into consideration?
which tools should we use to accomplish this task ? could you please provide any document or links for the same.
Thanks.Is SCVMM 2012 SP1 a free tool or do we need buy the license ?
NO, it;s not free.
Where do we need to install the SCVMM ?
You can install to VM.
can we install it on any computer on the network or it should be on any of the specific machine ?

Ubuntu running under Hyper-V with high load
I'm running a VM for Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS under Hyper-V and with no web server or any other public server installed, the system load is 1.0
The VM is using a 75GB fixed VHD on its own partition (the hard drive is using raid 0).
Is this normal for running a linux OS under Hyper-V?
Here's what top shows (i restarted the vm for fresh numbers, but it still shows a load of 1.00 even after its been running for a day):
top - 16:58:17 up 23 min, 1 user, load average: 1.00, 0.58, 0.24
Tasks: 235 total, 1 running, 234 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.0%us, 0.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 98.8%id, 1.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.2%si, 0.0%st

The host OS is running Windows 2012 R2 and it too isint running anything else that would put a lot of load on the server.Hi Sir,
The following daemons must be installed manually for Ubuntu distributions:
VSS Snapshot daemon – This daemon is required to create live Linux virtual machine backups.
KVP daemon – This daemon allows setting and querying intrinsic and extrinsic key value pairs.
To install both daemons, please use the following command:
Copy
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install hv-kvp-daemon-init
# uname –r
<kernel release>
# sudo apt-get install linux-tool-<kernel release>
# sudo apt-get install linux-cloud-tools-<kernel release>

How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?
How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?
When I try to open the document in Illustrator and I convert to CMYK the black font converts to rich black, but to set up for Offset printintg I need the text to be only in Black (100%K).
The original source of the document is a Microsoft Word file, I have converted the Word file to Pdf in order to setup for OFfset Printing.
ThanksI have tried that way, but the downside is that the fonts are set in gray not in a 100%K, also I have to deal with other fonts that are composites and meant to stay Full Color. I could select text by text and convert to gray but, its a 64 page document and I wouldn't want to make a expensive mistake.

We have a Windows 2008 R2 file server ( running off hyper V)
It has intronis and backup exec installed for backups.
Users are creating folders on the server and moving files, and sometimes ( not every time but about 20% of the time) the changes they made/ folders they setup will be gone and the files are back in the original directory they were in the day before.
There are some NTFS errors ( Event ID 55) that say to run a chkdsk,
which we have done ( chkdsk /r )
But we are still having the problem.
Should we just replace the drive? There is not much on google about this type of problem anyone run into anything like this before?
Thanks for any suggestions.Hi,
Do you restore the drive from backups? Do all the folders and files have the same issue in the drive or only some specific folders and files? Does the issue occur instantly?
You could refer to the article below to troubleshoot the event ID 55 error.

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run (and be edited, etc.) on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
I have several hours invested in a video creation that I made with Premiere Elements 13, but now 13 is refusing to work properly (space bar and play button do not move the time line indicator forward). Hopefully, I will get the problem solved, but in the meantime I must get this project completed and don't have time to start over. So, I need to convert the work so that it can be completed with Premiere 11 which seems to work fine.
Thanks, DaveDave
Is this an outdated thread? I thought that you had resolved the play button/space bar issue.
Classically, you cannot open a project created in a later version in an earlier version. If you try, you get hit with "The project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened." messaged. There was one rare and little known occasion when that was not the case. It involved Premiere Elements 10. So, that is not going to help us any here.
If you still have the play button/space bar issue, can you get out of the 13 project by exporting it to file which you can import into a new Premiere Elements 11 project? If need be, I can suggest the details of that if you tell me the project setting for the 13 project.
Please let us know the situation at this time.
Thank you.

How to verify if backups are set up and running on Hyper-V with Ubuntu 12.04 on vm ?
I have Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V installed and Ubuntu 12.04 running on a VM.
I would like to be able to verify if Windows Server Backups are in fact backing up the Ubuntu VM.
From within Hyper-V Manager no snapshots appear for the VM.
I have done a lsmod on Ubuntu to verify if LIS is installed , this is the output:

From what I can gather VSS will be able to run without the need to shutdown the Ubuntu VM but the backups are not running when Windows Server Backups run?
How can I verify IF any backups of the VM have run successfully at all?
I am new to Hyper-V - but from what I can see , it seems that no VM backups are running . The normal Windows Server backups are running nightly. I would like them to run together without having to restart/ take offline/reboot the VM.
This is a production server and I need to avoid rebooting as much as possible-Hi Sir,

I have paid and downloaded LION and want to update my IMAC, can i just run install and it keep photos settings etc from Snow Leopard or is a full reinstall with wiped hard drive, anyone have any experience of this and do i need to run a backup beforehand?
Always backup your important data before upgrading to a new Mac OS X.
Lion doesn't erase the drive but better to be safe than sorry.
And run Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities). Verify and if necessary repair the startup disk before upgrading.
