Creating a case-sensative partition

Hello,
I need to create a case-sensitive partition on my laptop so that I can check out source code using Subversion. One of my co-workers said that I should be able to use the Disk Utility to create a partition with Mac OS Extended (Journalled, Case-sensitive) format. I see how to add additional partitions using Disk Utility, but I am only able to select Mac OS Extended (Journalled) format in the Format: drop-down menu. A case-sensitive option does not appear.
Am I only able to format subsequent partitions with the same format as the original partition? Also, will creating this additional partition erase the data contained in the original partition that will be shrunk?
Thanks,
Adrian

you can reformat those new partitions later cases sensitive using the "erase" tab.

no, it won't erase that data. do make sure that you have plenty of free space when creating the new partition. Otherwise the partitioning process may fail.

Is there a way to go from a case-sensative partition to a case-insensitve partition without completely wiping the drive?

I've begun to notice that not all apps support case-sensitive partitions. I know that repartitioning or reformatting will just wipe everything and conversions don't usually work because of naming overlaps. But I had an idea. What if I created a second, case-insensitive partition? You see I have 100GB free. So if I create a 100GB partition, move 100GBs over, resize the partition into the new free space and repeat. Soon I would have all my files moved onto a new case-insensitive partition, and I could delete the old one and completely take it's place.
The only problem I see is the OS. I know the files won't mind the move, but the OS I'm sure is a problem. Maybe I could make the 2nd partition, install mac on it, and then move my other files over bit by bit, resizing the partition as I go. Is there a way to import my prefs and settings from an adjoining partition?
I just want to know what the problems with my idea might be. Is it risky? Am I a mad man?

Yes. Just select the volume in Disk Utility and select erase. Case-sensitivy is selectable. However, I've never understood the PC case-sensitivity usage and would never recommend it. Finally, AFAIK, the OS handles either.

Windows 7 Setup was unable to create a new system partition

I had windows 7 ultimate installed on a raid striping configuration and one of the hard drives crashed. I bought a new hard drive (WD Caviar Black 1TB) and when I went to reinstall windows 7, I got an error message saying Setup was unable to create
a new system partition blah blah blah. I did a lot of searching around for an answer, wondering if 1TB was too big of a hard drive to do a fresh install on, whether it was formated correctly, etc...
What I eventually found to be the solution was to go into the BIOS and change a setting. Somehow when my old hard drive crashed, the boot priority for hard drives automatically changed so that the first boot priority was one of my external hard drives.
After I changed the boot priority so that the first priority was the hard drive I wanted to install windows 7 on, the installation went smoothly. I think that's why other people had success after removing all external hard drives. After a
couple of reboots the boot priority most likely automatically updated to reflect which hard drives were actually connected.
Anyway, I had a hard time finding this answer, it was frustrating beyond all belief, and I wanted to make it easily available in case it helps anybody else out in the future.

Unable to create a single larger partition using diskpart

Hello,
I am fairly new to Windows server management.
I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 RDP machine on Amazon EC2 cloud. I have about 10 different partitions which are 8GB each. I would like to merge them all and create a single larger partition. I know diskpart generally does the trick (as per forums) but in
this case it hasn't.
I have converted three 8GB partitions into dynamic disks and I then I type the following command in diskpart:
create volume raid disk = 4,5,6
which gives me the following:
Virtual Disk Service error:
The size of the extent is less than the minimum.
I do not understand why is this happening. Would someone please be able to throw some light on this issue?
I would eventually want to add 6*1TB partitions and then merge them into a single large partition of 5TB (I got to know that 1TB will be reserved for parity).
I also tried running the following command:
create volume raid size=10000 disk = 4,5,6
and got the following:
The volume you have specified is too big for the specified disk(s).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hi,
Command line:
Create volume raid used to create a RAID-5 volume using three or more specified dynamic disks.
http://technet.microsoft.com/pt-pt/library/cc731343(v=WS.10).aspx
Partitions does not equal to disks.
If you do not familiar with Diskpart, you can use Disk Management to perform the same tasks.

How to create an ASD bootable partition

Can someone tell me how I can create an ASD boot partition. In my ACMT class we had a USB drive with multiple partitions each being an ASD bootable partition. I have a drive broken up into 16 partitions and would like to have each one a boot ASD. One thing I don't understand is that when downloading the ASD from the GSX site it comes down in 3 image files. Do I somehow use them all?
thanks for the help
john

Hi,
- You use them all via double clicking on the first dmg file. Make sure all three dmg's are in the same directory.
- There is a guide for this on GSX
Cheers

Is it possible to create a Windows 7 Partition via Bootcamp while having an internal RAID 0 Setup ?

Is it possible to create a Windows 7 Partition via Bootcamp while having an internal RAID 0 Setup ?

Yes, just not on the RAID. Boot Camp Assistant will only partition a single drive containing OS X. You cannot partition a RAID array.

To disspell any doubts, SU53 shows the last failed auth check which the user invoked in a program, immediately before executing Su53. It is not necessarily the correct one to assign!

I assume by this that you are referring to profile name collisions. This has two common causes:
The SID ID's of PROD, QAS and DEV etc systems all have the same identical characters in the 1st and the 3rd place. Only these two are used in the generation of the profile name. Search for "AGR_NUM_2" for more infos and options.
Another (IMO more likely possibility) is that which SAP Note 1373111 describes in the reason codes of the FOR USER construct. The check might infact have been performed against a different user ID...
Please run the same with an ST01 trace on and check the reason code (if your kernel release is high enough).
Personally I am rather sceptical about this new mechanism in the wild. The old mechanism via FM AUTHORITY_CHECK at least gave us a where-usd-list and when jumping from the trace to the source it was clear what the developer had intended to do, even if they have already left the building...

Windows 7 Ultimate isn't installing on my iMac. Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition

I have a 21.5" iMac (Late 2012) running OS X Mavericks. I'm trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate via Bootcamp but whenever i get to the setup part it goes wrong
These are the steps I followed
I selected all the options since I didn't have the drivers or an install disk
it copied the Windows 7 iso image, downloaded the support software, and saved the support software to the flash drive (8GB)
I selected a partition size - I gave windows roughly 100GB
and I let it install
Right now I'm at the part where it says " where do you want to install windows? I selected the bootcamp partition and formatted it. It now says
"Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information"
WHAT DO I DO?

I had to read the apple instructions several times before they started to make sense. I burned my iso onto a DVD and had the required USB for support software. Are you trying to use the single USB method?
This article has a lot of info on the single usb method

Boot Camp - Setup was unable to create a new system partition....from Windows install

Hi folks. So I ran the boot camp wizard and made a USB install key for windows from that. I boot to it and everything works until I get to the install. I format the Boot Camp partition as indicated in the walkthrough and then I get "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information." from the Windows installer. What do I do? Thanks.

just to add to the mix. . . i just got a new macbook retina.
Originally used a USB flash drive. Hit the same barrier described here.
Spent a few hours with drive unplugging / replugging silliness. No progress. Went back into OSX to attempt using an external DVD drive. There is no option for that in Bootcamp assistant now - must use USB.
Grabbed a different USB stick and started again. This time I used the other USB port on the macbook (the one on the left). Everything worked fine this time!?
You still have to go into "advanced options" and hit "format" when you get to the partition screen.
Moral of the story: different stick, different port. Sounds random. If that doesn't work, try changing your socks and putting on a hat.
Good luck!

How do I create a Snow Leopard partition?

I just upgraded to Lion, and unfortunately, can't access my Quicken 2007. (Didn't realize Quicken didn't work in Lion until after I downloaded it. Clearly, I live in a barrel.) I just downloaded iBank and need to export my Quicken data to it. From what I understand, I need to create a Snow Leopard partition where I can export my info.
My question is, how do I do this? Although I know a lot about a lot of things, this isn't one of my areas of expertise, so please be gentle and walk me through it.
Thanks SO very much!

To resize the drive do the following:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
After the main menu appears select Disk Utility and click on the Continue button. Select the hard drive's main entry then click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
2. You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3. In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for each partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle upwards until you have reduced the existing partition enough to create the desired new volume's size. The space below the resized partition will appear gray. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed. (Note: You can only make a partition smaller in order to create new free space.)
4. Click on the [+] button below the sizing window to add a new partition in the gray space you freed up. Give the new volume a name, if you wish, then click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a new volume on the drive.
It would be wise to have a backup of your current system as resizing is not necessarily free of risk for data loss. Your drive must have sufficient contiguous free space for this process to work.
Boot From The Snow Leopard Installer Disc and Install:
Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
Restart the computer.
Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
Wait for installer to finish loading.
Install Snow Leopard on the newly created partition.

How can i create a /home zfs partition

I need to create a zfs home partition without been part of the aumounter.
ldap home users configuracions needs to be in /home
disableing the automounter works.. however
automounter its needed to mount other file systems.

Edit the /etc/auto_master file and remove or comment out the /home entry. Then restart the autofs service. This should take /home out of the automounter. You can then use zfs create to create the local /home ZFS filesystem as you need it. For example, if you want /home on the "rpool" zfs pool, you could use "zfs create -o mountpoint=/home rpool/home" and then create your home directories inside that.

Recommendations for creating dvd case inserts?

Hello! As far as I can tell, iDVD 6 has no feature for creating dvd case covers/inserts.
I'd appreciate recommendations for inexpensive or free software for making such covers.
Thanks!
David

You're welcome, David. I'm not familiar with all the Sharpie product line, but the common one that marks anywhere uses a fairly harsh solvent, and in theory could eat through to the reflective coating of the DVD. I found a Memorex product at Fry's Electronics named, "CD Marker." It is labeled non-toxic, water-based.
Personally, I've not had any problems with the sticky labels (I've used Memorex and CD Stomper labels for a few years) but there are some strong feelings opposed to their use (and I can imagine a problem could come up in 10-15 years). You can do a search in these forums; an alternative is printing directly onto the DVD if you have the right printer and disks.

Case Management - Create a Case using FM or Class-Method

Hi all,
I am involved in a Case Management project now.
I have a requeirment where I have to create a Case using a Function Module or a Method of a class.
Does anybody knowhow to do this?
Thanks and kind regards,
Guillermo

Hi,
Can you try the following BAPI - BAPI_CRMCASE_CREATE from the Function Group - CRM_CMG_BAPI. I guess this will at least give you some idea as to how to proceed. Also, have a look at the Function Module documentation which will give you an idea of the sample code.
You can also have a look at the following Class Method - cl_crm_cmg_manager=>create_case. I found this in CL_CRM_CMG_IL which is the SAP CRM 6.0 Genil Component Class.
I hope this will help.
Thanks and Regards,
Samantak.
