How to format disk to use all the space?

Hi,
A drive I'm trying to reconfigure has the current configuration:
Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
0 root wm 0 - 2213 10.74GB (2214/0/0) 22529664
1 swap wu 2214 - 2616 1.96GB (403/0/0) 4100928
2 backup wm 0 - 14086 68.35GB (14087/0/0) 143349312
3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
5 var wm 2617 - 3824 5.86GB (1208/0/0) 12292608
6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
Notice that only about 18.5GB out of the 68.35GB is in use. I wish to create a slice that takes up the rest of the drive without in any way affecting what is already in partitions 0, 1, 2 and 5. How do I do so?
Thanks

Hello Bancroft,
have you reviewed the manpage of <b>format</b> ?
Basically you want to assign cylinder 3825-14086 to a new slice.

  • How do I take advantage of all the space I should have!?

    My iPod nano(2G) isn't being able to use all of its space for music. I should be able to use 1.83Gs, but it doesn't even let me add ONE SONG! How do I take advantage of all the space I should have!?!?!?!?!?!
      Windows XP  

    What format are the songs you have imported? The advertised song capacity of iPod is based on 4 minute songs encoded in AAC format at a bit rate of 128 kbps. Longer songs and songs encoded at a higher bitrate or in uncompressed formats take up more space, that's probably why you are getting fewer on. Go to iTunes and right click on one of your songs, choose Get Info>Summary and look at "Kind" to see what format you are using: iTunes: About import settings and hard disk space

  • How can I make app use all available space in window?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to embed my flash app in a browser window and have
    it use all available space. I've found plenty of tutorials online
    that tell me how to make it take up the whole window, and they
    work, but that isn't what I want. I have other content on the page
    (a bar of links across the top). I thus want the flash app to take
    up the full width and almost all the hight, leaving enough vertical
    space for the link bar at the top. Right now, I have it set to 100%
    for both height and width in the object tag, and it displays the
    link bar, but the bottom of the flash gets chopped off (an amount
    exactly equal to the height of the link bar). It seems that setting
    height=100% means 100% of the full window height, not the unused
    height. Is there any way to make it do what I want?

    I believe the 100% will be relative to the parent container
    of the Object/Embed tag.
    If the Flex app is in say, a DIV that is correctly sized,
    then 100% will fill the DIV. So I think you will need to get your
    div sizing dynamically. A CSS expression maybe?

  • HT4910 how do i reset to use all the storage available?    I have 10 available but it won't back up.

    I Upgraded my iCloud sstorage but when I backup it will not back up, although I have 10 gb available.  What is next step?

    If you get the message "Backup not successful",  I had the same problem.
    My solution was to turn off some apps (Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap my device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options) and try a manual backup.  If it didn't work, turn off a few more apps and try a backup.  Keep doing that until the backup works.  Then try adding in some of the last batch of apps that were previously turned off - the objective is to find the app that causes the backup to fail.  For me, I suspect that the one app I found had a bad data file that, when included in the backup, caused the backup to quit.
    This can be a long process if you have a lot of apps that you originally turned on for backups.

  • How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

    First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn.  I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

    Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor.  The pro version of iMovie.
    Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow.  It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them.  You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
    When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
    Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
    Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version).  Personal preferences showing here.

  • TS1388 My battery on my macbook pro all of a sudden keeps using the battery power really quickly, so I am having to rechareg it constantly.  Does anyone know why this occurs or how to fix it.  I have used all the energy saving tips.

    Hi My battery on my macbook pro keeps running low on power very quickly and I have to keep recharging it.  This has never happened before. I have used all the power saver options, but it keeps happening.  Can anyone help. The battery seems to be losing power even when it is turned off.

    Hi BigThinker,
    How old is your Mac? If it is an older one, then the battery may just be dying. You can check by clicking on the Apple in the upper left-hand corner, then clicking on About This Mac>More Info>System Report, then click on Power (about half way down the list). At the top of the resulting display, you should see the following type of info:
    The Health Information will tell you if your battery is going to need replacement soon. If it says Normal, then it is not the battery.

  • How can I get access to all the disk capacity?

    I want to use all the disk capacity of SCSI target disks.
    When I call prtvtoc for these disks, it written something
    like this: cylinders number is N, available cylinders
    number is N-2, so Solaris takes 2 cylinders from each disk.
    Is there any way to use all the disk capacity, including
    these 2 cylinderes?
    Regards, Dany.

    I do not understand the question.  I cannot go online from my site off any link embedded in the document.  When there is a link in the document and I try to click on it I get the error code posted in the first item.  Also (I just found this out trying to fix it) I am attached to windows mail and the same thing occurs when I try to send a file to myself.  Thus the bottom line is I am trying to get online through the embedded links and I get the error code written in the opening comment.  You have all the codes you requested, if you want anything just ask and I will seek it.  I am getting very frustrated, do not take this as anything against you...I cannot get this to work.

  • I am confused about how to manage photos between my iPhone, iMac and iPad.  How do I avoid using all the storage pace on my various devices?

    How do I manage photos between my ipad, iphone and imac without using all the storage on the various devices?

    If enabled, iCloud Photo Stream ensures all new photos are sent to all your devices. Then you can simply add the ones you want to each one's Library, and delete any photos you don't want.
    One technique is to designate one device as the "master" containing all your photos - probably your iMac, since it is likely to have the greatest available storage - and make sure you have a backup strategy for it. That way, any photos you choose to keep on your iPad and iPhone are redundant copies that can be deleted as you wish, or as required should you need to restore your iOS device. If your iMac breaks and its Library irretrievably lost, the importance of its backup becomes critical. Therefore, consider having more than one backup, and more than one geographical location for them.

  • Do I need to use all the hard drive for time machine or can I partition it

    Do I need to use all the hard drive for time machine or can I partition it

    You cannot partition a TC disk.
    See pondini about mixing data and backups.. but remember this.. the TC has no way to back itself up and TM cannot backup files on the TC. Anything not backed up on the TC will be lost at some future point.

  • How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time

    How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time ? I want to take backup of all the reports existing at the report server dynamically at one time only. currently I'm able to take backup of the reports folder wise
    using VBScript. and I have to pass the folder names again and again. I want this to be happened for all the reports of all the folders at single shot only using VBScript.

    Hi DineshRemash,
    Based on my research, we can store the following VB Script to a text file, then modify the file name extension from .txt to .rss.
    Dim rootPath As String = "C:\Reports"
    Sub Main()
    Dim items As CatalogItem() = _
    rs.ListChildren("/", true)
    For Each item As CatalogItem in items
    If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Folder Then
    CreateDirectory(item.Path)
    Else If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Report Then
    SaveReport(item.Path)
    End If
    Next
    End Sub
    Sub CreateDirectory(path As String)
    path = GetLocalPath(path)
    System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(path)
    End Sub
    Sub SaveReport(reportName As String)
    Dim reportDefinition As Byte()
    Dim document As New System.Xml.XmlDocument()
    reportDefinition = rs.GetReportDefinition(reportName)
    Dim stream As New MemoryStream(reportDefinition)
    document.Load(stream)
    document.Save(GetLocalPath(reportName) + ".rdl")
    End Sub
    Function GetLocalPath(rsPath As String) As String
    Return rootPath + rsPath.Replace("/", "\")
    End Function
    Then navigate to the folder contains the script, we can directly run the below command from the run menu:
    rs -s
    http://aa/ ReportServer -i download.rss
    We can modify the rootpath to point at whaterver fold you’d like to download the RDL files.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do we know what are all the fields  updated in a screen?

    Hi all,
             If i am making modifications in row details of sales order screen .for eg, <b>i am changing the quantity or price for a row</b> 
             I want to write log file for the updated fields for that particular sales order.
             <b> How do we know what are all the fields are updated ?</b>     
             If we can use SBOTransaction_Notification procedure.How to write code inside that.
             Please provide code example for that.I have downloaded the sample.But i donot know how to use 'Add code to here ' part.
             Please help me to solve this.Hope  your  reply soon
    Regards,
    V.Rangarajan

    Hi, V.Rangarajan!
    When the field in the matrix is filled with some value and the user moves to another field, the et_LOST_FOCUS event occurs. So, i think you can try to handle ItemEvents and use such code (for example):
    if (pVal.EventType == SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_LOST_FOCUS && pVal.ItemUID == "38" && pVal.BeforeAction == false && pVal.FormType == 139)
    string ChangedColumnID = pVal.ColUID;
    int ChangedRowNumber = pVal.Row;
    and write the values to your log.
    "38" - is the matrix ID in the Orders form
    "139" - is the Orders form
    Also you can access to the value, that user had put into the field.
    Hope this helps!

    You may not expressly be using all the RAM in your machine but OS X will, whether you know it or not.
    Each time you read a file from disk, whatever was read is cached by the system; when the file or program is no longer in use, the memory is marked free for the system to recover for other purposes but as long as it remains in memory the next time you need to access that disk information it's simply read from memory.
    The more RAM, the more disk data is kept around and the faster your machine will operate until that memory needs to be recovered or you reboot (or otherwise flush the disk cache.)
