HP DL380 G7: Expand Available Space
Hi,
Currently I have two 146 hot-swap HDD in my server, under RAID 1. I'm running out of space and added two new ones. Tell me if I'm wrong but in this case I just need to format both of them but where can I tell Windows/Server both new disks are for expanding the current RAID 1 and not for additional unmirrored free space?
Regards,

The WEP Password to access wifi from Time Warner cable is 12 numbers and letters followed by 14zeros. The available space to input password is unequal to the task? Time Warner advised to call Apple. Any one with a suggestion on how to either 'customize' WEP or expand available password input space? Better ideaS?
wjosten - I was using a WEP password of greater than 13 characters with no problem.
Mondayblues - Are you saying that you cannot set your own password for your router/modem? You should be able to access it from an ethernet connected computer and change the password to suit yourself. If it's not more than about 4 years old, you should be able to use WPA instead of WEP, which is much more secure. Google "time warner modem yourmodel" to find the user manual and the URL to access the modem. -
DiskWatcher Available space message in LMS 4.2.2
In Soft Apliance 4.2.2 I keep up getting diskWatcher Available space message:
It is fresh installation:

Config:Hi ,
you can follow the below steps:
1. Shutdown the VM
2. Right click the VM and select Edit Settings
3. Select the hard disk you would like to extend
4. On the right side, make the provisioned size as large as you need it
5. Click OK
6. Power on the VM
7. Connect to the command line of the Linux VM via the console or putty
session
8. Log in as root
9. The fdisk command provides disk partitioning functions and using it
with the -l switch lists information about your disk partitions. At the
command prompt type fdisk -l
10. The response should say something like Disk /dev/sda : xxGB. (See
Figure A)
11. At the command prompt type fdisk /dev/sda. (if dev/sda is what was
returned after step 10 as shown in Figure A)
12. Type p to print the partition table and press Enter (also shown in
Figure A)
13. Type n to add a new partition
14. Type p again to make it a primary partition
15. Now you'll be prompted to pick the first cylinder which will most
likely come at the end of your last partition (ex: /dev/sda3 ends at 2610).
So I chose 2611 for my first cylinder, which is also listed as the default.
16. If you want it to take up the rest of the space available (as
allocated in step 4), just choose the default value for the last cylinder.
17. Type w to save these changes
18. Restart the VM
19. Log back in as root
20. At the command prompt type fdisk -l. You'll notice another partition
is present. In Figure B it is listed as sda4.
21. You need to initialize this new partition as a physical volume so
you can manipulate it later using the Logical Volume Manager (LVM).
22. Now you'll add the physical volume to the existing volume group
using the vgextend command. First type df -h to find the name of the volume
group. In Figure C, the name of the volume group is vg_root. Now type
vgextend [volume group] /dev/sdaX. (ex: vgextend vg_root /dev/sda4)
23. To find the amount of free space available on the physical volume
type vgdisplay [volume group] | grep "Free"
24. Extend the logical volume by the amount of free space shown in the
previous step by typing lvextend -L+[freespace]G /dev/volgroup/volume. (ex:
lvextend -L+20G /dev/vg_root/lv_root)
25. You can finally expand the ext3 file system in the logical volume
using the command resize2fs /dev/volgroup/volume (ex: resize2fs
/dev/vg_root/lv_root).
26. You can now run the df command to verify that you have more space-df
-h

Question: Inconsistency in Icloud between total and available spaces.
Dear all,
First of all, thank you for read this topic and please kindly give me information or advise if you can.
Right now, my Iphone 4s was reset accidentally and all data were gone without any backup in Itune but I thought I have backup some in Icloud. After it was reset, I tried to restore with Icloud but nothing was found. Then, I came back to check space in Icloud (setting > Icloud > storage & Backup) and found that total space is 5.0 GB but available space is 355 MB, meaning that space around 4 GB are used for backing up something. So, this point is so strange. Icloud said nothing was backed up but my Icloud space has been used for 4GB.
Could anyone advise for data backing up and answer this problem for me?
Also, please kindly let me know how can I get storage 4GB back.
Thank youso much in advance,

What happens when an iPod is synchronized with an iTunes library that is bigger than the available space on the iPod? I did this some time ago. On screen was shown available space somewhat less than 120 GB, but maybe somewhere between 10 and 20 GB more in the library. I had to get the iPod updated anyway, so I did proceed. However, afterwards the total content of the library was only about 110 GB. Now I wonder what did actually happen. Was the first sign only corrected for double copies of the same files or lost files or where files deleted from iTunes? And if files where deleted from iTunes, were they also deleted from my computer?
Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one. Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

Why is there so much available space on my hard drive after installing Lion?
I just made the decision to go ahead and install the new operating system "Lion"
I backed everything up to my Time Capsule and I have an older back up of everything on an external hard drive.
Now I have two questions and one task.
Why is there so much available space on my hard drive and where did my iPhoto library go after installing the new operating system?
My task is to restore my most up to date iPhoto library which I assume is on my time capsule.
How should I approach this task?Hi entresoft,
I am not sure how to do this. I am not a very literate computer person but have a vague idea of what you are suggesting.
If I do manage to figure out how to do what you have suggested will this restore my iPhoto Library and I assume maybe other files?
Thanks! -
Hard Drive Capacity Issue -- 51 GBs missing btwn utilized and avail space
I have a 200MB internal hard drive.
My SYSTEM PROFILER states:
Capacity=185.99GB (which I understand due to system use, etc)
Available= 26.25 GB (odd)
This available space reading seemed odd as I don't have much data on the HD (transferred files using Migration Assistant from a 80gb, 1.67ghz older G4 laptop).
So I went to the ACTIVITY MONITOR and looked at DISK USAGE at it states:
Space Utilized= 99.14 GB
Space Free= 25.85 GB
With a total of 124.99 GB between the two (the adjacent pie chart total)
MY QUESTION: If I have a HD with a capacity of 185.99 GB, with only 99.14 GB utilized, why is the space free missing 51 GBs? Where did this memory space go?
Note: I have never partitioned the Hard Drive or created any sort of RAM Disk.
Anyone? Please help.UPDATE BUT STILL NO ANSWER:
Ran DISK UTILITY which fixed some minor errors and how states "Volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK"
But the issue remains - I have a 200GB hard drive but the data at the bottom of this utility reads:
Capacity : 186.0 GB (199,705,673,728 Bytes)
Available : 26.3 GB (28,291,375,104 Bytes)
Used : 98.6 GB (105,916,047,360 Bytes)
Number of Folders: 173,085
Number of Files: 886,070
HOW CAN I ONLY HAVE 26.3GB available when I have only used 98.6GB of 186GB = Should be a 87.4 GB balance available, not 26.3 GB, right????????
What is the deal here? Is this related to MobileMe or iPhone issue maybe?
The hardware start-up test and disk utility test are all clean. Someone? Anyone?
Thanks! -
Sorry to elaborate a bit more.
I have used time machine since owning my mac book pro with no issues. i keep the timemachine backups on an external hard drive made by Verbatim. This has not external power source.
Recently i decided to use up some of the available space on the external verbatim disk drive to store some movie files which were sitting on my macbook pro.
Therefore i created a new folder outside of the time machine backup folder and stored the movie files in there.
From then on Time machine failed... and a few days later i noticed it was not mounting in 'finder'
Therefore i used disk utility to see if it was recognising it. Which i was. However when i try to repair it the repair process fails.
In disk utility i am presented with 1 TB Samsung HN M10 which has a child called Verbatim HD.
The 1TB Samsung hardware appears fine, but the verbatim disk i am unable to fully verify and fix.
Does this mean i have lost all my back ups?
Have I lost all the media that i put on there?
Is there any way to fix this?
Any help would be appreciated.
didier07...To summarize: You used an external Verbatim HD for your TM backups. Then, you stored some movie files on the "spare" space on the Verbatim drive. Now, Disk Utility isn't being recognized, and repair is disabled. Your home Samsung drive is working fine, but the Verbatim cannot be verified.
The problem, I believe, is that the external Verbatim drive wasn't partitioned. There should be two partitions: one for TM backups, the other for video. That way, you can perform backups, and still retain some space for video or somesuch.
Frankly, I don't know how to fix this except through the following. (1) Erase the Verbatim drive, (2) Create a new blank space and format it, (3) Make two partitions - one for backup, the other for video. (4) Run TM through one partition, but switch to the other for your videos. The better solution might be to have one dedicated drive (perhaps the Verbatim) for backups, and another dedicated drive for video backups; that way, you'll have plenty of space for expansion.
I hope someone will correct me if I'm incorrect, but I believe you've essentially lost your backups and media. I don't know how you can retrieve that clump of the now-undifferentiated data on the Verbatim drive. To retrieve any lost data, you're going to require another external drive that's larger in capacity, as well as data recovery software; don't expect encouraging results. If you're desperate, there are firms like Drive Savers that can offer a more comprehensive solution - at a cost.

Ever since I updated what looked like iTunes 10.6.1 my computer has been corrupted with Malware, which has filled up all available space on my hard drive. What do I do to get rid of the Malware?
First, reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB free for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data.
Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal. -
External hard drive has no available space even though i have deleted nearly everything on there
I have an external hard drive for backups and it has no available space even though i have deleted nearly everything on there. Where is the space?
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. 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. -
Here is my problem:
I'm unable to download the latest software iOS 6.0.1 to my iphone 4 because there is not enough available space. I tried to sync my iphone to itunes and it says, "itunes cannot read the contents of this iPhone. Go to the Summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings."
I backed up my data to icloud to ensure everything is backed up. Is there a way to verify if data was really backed up in icloud?
What else can I do in order to free up enough space to download the newest version iOS 6.0.1? Current version on the iphone is 5.1.1 and there is only 1.6 GB of space remaining. I need 2.5 to download the software.If you really are running OS 10.4.6 you have a long way to go!
So, assuming you are not, what version of OS X do you have? -
Find available space in buffer cache
Hi.
I want to find available space from buffer cache. First thought was to make it 8i-9i comp, by not using v$bh to calculate sum of memory and available space.
I have the following pl/sql block to calculate the values:
declare
num_free_blck integer;
num_all_blck integer;
num_used_blck integer;
overal_cache number := 0;
used_cache number := 0;
free_cache number := 0;
blck_size integer;
pct_free number := 0;
begin
select count(1) into num_free_blck from v$bh where status='free';
select count(1) into num_all_blck from v$bh;
select count(1) into num_used_blck from v$bh where status <> 'free';
select value into blck_size from v$parameter where name ='db_block_size';
used_cache := (blck_size * num_used_blck)/(1024*1024);
free_cache := (blck_size * num_free_blck)/(1024*1024);
overal_cache := (blck_size * num_all_blck)/(1024*1024);
pct_free := ((free_cache/overal_cache)*100);
dbms_output.put_line('There are '||num_free_blck||' free blocks in buffer cache');
dbms_output.put_line('There are '||num_used_blck||' used block in buffer cache');
dbms_output.put_line('There are totally '||num_all_blck||' blocks in buffer cache');
dbms_output.put_line('Overall cache size is '||to_char(overal_cache,'999.9')|| 'mb');
dbms_output.put_line('Used cache is '||to_char(used_cache,'999.9')||' mb');
dbms_output.put_line('Free cache is '||to_char(free_cache,'999.9')||' mb');
dbms_output.put_line('Percent free db_cache is '||to_char(pct_free,'99.9')||' %');
end;
The result of the execution is:
SQL> @c:\temp\bh
There are 3819 free blocks in buffer cache
There are 4189 used block in buffer cache
There are totally 8008 blocks in buffer cache
Overall cache size is 62.6mb
Used cache is 32.7 mb
Free cache is 29.8 mb
Percent free db_cache is 47.7 %
PL/SQL-prosedyren ble fullført.
SQL>
This is not correct according to the actuall size of the buffer cache:
SQL> select name,value from v$parameter where name='db_cache_size';
NAME
VALUE
db_cache_size
67108864
SQL>
Anyone that have an idea bout this?
Thanks

Provided the OP figures out that xx_bh is probably a view defined by sys on top of x$bh this will get him the number of free buffers - which may be what he wants - but apart from that your query is at least 10 years short of complete, and the decode() of state 3 is definitley wrong.

Other using all available space after update to iOS 8.3
Before updating I had at least 10GB of free space, but ever since I updated to iOS 8.3, I am repeatedly receiving the Storage Almost Full error. The last couple days I have deleted 2 or 3 GB of data and apps to free up space, but the error returns the next day and I have no space available even though I haven't added anything that would take up that much space. Looking at apps under Manage Storage, there is nothing taking up the space that was previously unused. When I plugged my phone into iTunes, is says that Other now takes up more than half the available storage on my phone, and I have the 64GB model.
Other had previously taken up quite a bit of space, and I know that this is mostly documents and data from my applications and messages, but there's no way it should have jumped so dramatically in size. It seems to be just growing to take up whatever available space there is on my phone.Berbyq wrote:
