Sccli command shows partition size as 0MB

I have configured 3510 with 12x142GB disks, 2 global spare, RAID10 connected to 2 SunFire v1280 servers.
After partitons are done, sccli show config command shows 0 MB in size.
sccli> show partitions
LD/LV ID-Partition Size

ld1-01 6B0565DB-01 0MB
ld1-02 6B0565DB-02 0MB
Why is this behaviour? Any ideas?

Found the problem. The Firmware on 3510 was 4.21F but the CLI was 1.5.2. After installing 2.2 version of CLI this issue was fixed.
Thanks

[SOLVED] midnight commander - show size in MB or GB

mc displays size in KB .. can it show file size in MB or GB ?
Last edited by xhc (2012-05-25 22:01:20)

The available size display option offers two modes:
man mc
Use SI size units. If this option is enabled, Midnight Commander
will use SI units (powers of 1000) when displaying any byte sizes.
The suffixes (k, m ...) are shown in lowercase. If disabled
(default), Midnight Commander will use binary units (powers of
1024) and the suffixes are shown in upper case (K, M ...)
You can access the variable and change it in
Options -> Panel options ... -> Use SI size units
By default, MC will display K|k / M|m suffixes the following way:
279426K file1.mp4
for a 279 MB file, and
1179M file2.mp4
for a 1,18 GB file, in both cases calculating the size either using powers of 1000 (SI units), or 1024. The only approximate value in KB / MB / GB as well as the percent of free space left can be displayed in mini-status, if it is enabled.

Var partition showing incorrect size

So I installed a new system on a new rig last night. Today, I noticed that the /var partition is showing a much smaller size, than what it actually is.
"df -h /var" shows:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 3,0G 266M 2,6G 10% /var
But "fdisk -l /dev/sda3" as root gives me:
Disk /dev/sda3: 21.5 GB, 21474836480 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2610 cylinders, total 41943040 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
The 21 gb shown by fdisk is the correct size of the partition, so why on earth will arch only see 3 of those when mounting it as /var?
The relevant fstab entry looks proper to me:
UUID=2a2bb9dd-054c-4a04-810b-9bae86c8ca8f /var ext4 defaults 0 1
And to double check that uuid is correct and pointing to /dev/sda3, I run "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid" and get:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 May 1 11:41 2a2bb9dd-054c-4a04-810b-9bae86c8ca8f -> ../../sda3
Any clue to what is happening here? Help would be much appreciated.

Maybe the files system was not created properly. Try backup your files and reformat or resize with resize2fs.

Partition Size difference between Disk Utility and Finder

I installed a new hard drive in my MacBook Pro (2.33ghz late 2006). The new drive is 320gb.
In Disk Utility it shows up correctly as a single partition (297.65GB). However, when I hit command+I in finder on the disk it shows its size as 176.88GB - a 120GB difference.
Anyone any idea what the problem could be?
Thanks
Shay
PS I used to have a bootcamp partition on the drive but have removed it, maybe this has something to do with it.

In DU is it showing the size of the DRIVE or the partition on the drive?
I'd clone the partition you have to an external and then repartition and reformat that drive to get it all back to one partition. How big was the boot camp partition?

Scroll bar not showing relative size correctly

I'm not sure of the correct terminology so please bear with me. In CS4 when I zoomed in on an image, the bar at the bottom would show the size of the image now on screen relative to the full size. i.e. if I go from 50% to 100% the bar would be half the size indicating that I am only seeing half the image. At least I think that was the case in CS4.
Here's and example from CS6.
Open an image, choose "Command-0" to make it fill the window, and the percentage is 48.16%. The bar at the bottom is not there, but if it was I assume it would fill the width of the window.
I select "Command-+" to zoom in, and the percentage goes to 50%. The bar now fills about 30% of the window width indicating that I have zoomed in a whole lot, but I haven't. There is only a little bit of image on either side not visible, the rest is a huge grey area extending left right, and up and down.
How do I make the bar indicate the true amount of zoom, and how do I get rid of that grey area?

Yes, it's working as designed.
There's a feature called "overscrolling" which allows you to scroll past the edge of the document, and it's only available when the document is larger than the displayable area. You'll see it work if you zoom an image to be *just* larger than your space and use the (what seems like too-short) scroll bar.
This inconsistency, between when the document will all fit in the displayable area, and when it exceeds the space, is the real root of the problem.
People have complained about this for a long time, and Adobe doesn't listen. Thing is, some folks would like to be able to scoll or pan to offset an image that DOES all fit so as to be able to comfortably sketch on the edge - or for whatever reason. That would make it more consistent.
Here's a reproduction of the problem, and scroll of the image that's slightly bigger than the window to illustrate:
Here the image all fits - no scroll bars:
Here the image has been zoomed in a little more - the scroll bars have appeared and are about 1/3 the size of the image:
Here the image has been scrolled almost to the limit of the horizontal scroll bar:
It's working as designed. That doesn't mean the design is right,

Best practice of expanding partition size

Hi,
I am just wondering what's the best practice of expanding a partition. Currently the server I am working in has the partitions configure as below:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup01-LogVol00
5046848 4630796 155548 97% /
/dev/sda1 101086 50293 45574 53% /boot
tmpfs 4087296 2388360 1698936 59% /dev/shm
/dev/sda3 5162828 141544 4759024 3% /tmp
/dev/sdb1 1923068 734956 1090424 41% /fs0
/dev/sdb2 1923084 70908 1754488 4% /fs1
/dev/sdc1 89406276 68095788 16768916 81% /fs2
/dev/sdc2 13804204 7061912 6041056 54% /fs3
/dev/sdb3 6474880 4509556 1636416 74% /fs4
Let's say I want to increase /fs2 which is /dev/sdc1 by another 15GB. I can go into the VMware and increase the disk size by 20GB but how will I go about increasing the partition size without affecting other partitions?
Most of the instructions I see online basically creates a new partition but I want to avoid creating a new partition. So is it possible to do it?
Thanks.

You cannot increase a partition on a disk without affecting other partitions on the same disk unless it is the last partition. You will have to completely re-organize your partitions and restore from backup. You can however extend partitions that are under LVM control by adding a free LVM controlled partition or disk and assign it to any existing LVM volume in order to increase it's capacity. There is plenty of documentation and info available on the web. If you plan to increase your LVM root volume you need to boot form external media.
Since you are using VMware there is actually no need to create multiple partitions on any disk. You can simply put each partition on it's own virtual disk. Then after you increase the underlying virtual disk, you can use "lvextend" for devices under LVM, or "gparted" to modify the partition, and use the "resize2fs" command to adjust the file system, even while the mounted volume is online.

Solaris 10 Max Partition size

Hi,
I would like to know the maximum partition size that Solaris 10 can support/create.
We have a Sun StorEdge 6920 system with a 8 TBytes, based on 146 GBytes Hard Disks.
Is it possible to create a 4 TBytes partition?
if not, any suggestions are appreciated.

Look to EFI, allows filesystems built to large TB sizes if you needed.
Per SUN:
Multi-terabyte file systems, up to 16 Tbyte, are now supported under UFS, Solaris Volume Manager, and VERITAS's VxVM on machines running a 64-bit kernel. Solaris cannot boot from a file system greater than 1 Tbyte, and the fssnap command is not currently able to create a snapshot of a multi-terabyte file system. Individual files are limited to 1 Tbyte, and the maximum number of files per terabyte on a UFS file system is 1 million.
The Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) disk label, compatible with the UFS file system, allows for physical disks exceeding 1 Tbyte in size. For more information on the EFI disk label, see System Administration Guide: Basic Administration on docs.sun.com. "
Found this at:
http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features/articles/solaris_express.html
So you may want to look into EFI, which is different way of partitioning the disk.

Partition size limitation?

I have run into the following problem when trying to set a new large hard disk on my solaris 9 machine:
If I use 100% of the space (200GB) on the disk to create my solaris partition and then proceed to define the slices I will always get a Warning message when performing the label command from the partition prompt:
Warning: no backup labels
When in fact I used the "Free Hog" option to set it up and there is a backup slice.
If I proceed to run newfs the process will hang and eventually the entire machine will lock up.
If I reduce the solaris partition to 25% (50GB) and follow the same steps I do not get any warning message and the newfs process finishes normally.
I experience exact same problem at 50% (100GB). So my limit is somewhere between 50 and 100 GB for the partition size. Is there some kind of work around for this? I have a solaris 8 machine that uses a 100GB partition without any problems so it seems unlikely that I am hitting some kind of OS limitiation...
The hard drive is an ata-133 (maxtor) however it's running at ata-100 due to motherboard chipset limitations... I don't know if this could be causing a problem or not...

I'd try to install Solaris 9 from the CD "Software 1 of 2" (that is, not using the installation CD).
At the stage where the video card, keyboard and mouse is configured select "bypass". The installer
runs in ascii mode now.
Now. in case of a system hang I hope that you are able to see some kernel error message and you
may get a clue what the problem is.

Increase partition size

I have a small partition that I need to increase... I have looked all over for the .hdd file that I'm supposed to have in Boot Camp so I can run Parallels Image Tool, but I can't find it or anything close. Can this be done? What am I missing?
Thanks
Ritchie

To increase the windows partition:
Converting FAT32 to NTFS while booted into Windows:
1. Click on Start button
2. Click on Run
3. Type in Cmd and then it Enter
4.In the command prompt window, type: convert drive_letter: /fs:ntfs and hit Enter. Please note that the "drive_letter" in the above command should be replaced with your drive letter. This is more than likely C so your command would read as Convert C: /fs:ntfs. NOTE: once you convert the partition to NTFS from FAT32 then OS X will not be able to write to it however it will be able to read it.
5. Once the partition is converted then shut down windows and boot into OS X.
Backing up windows partition:
6. Download and run an app called "Winclone" from OS X and back up the newly converted Windows boot camp NTFS partition to another drive (maybe external USB or firewire drive)
Create new partition size:
7. Run Boot Camp Assistant from OS X and delete current Windows partition.
8. Run Boot camp assistant again and recreate a new Windows partition with the increased size that you want. NOTE: Do not go through the process of installing windows from the boot camp assistant menu.
Reinstall windows backup clone onto new larger partition:
9. Close boot camp assistant and run Winclone
10. Using Winclone, unarchive your windows backup to the newly made larger NTFS partition that you just created with boot camp assistant.
OPTIONAL: to allow access to the newly converted NTFS XP file partition while in OS X
11. download and install on the OS X partition NTFS 3G app http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/

Number of commands per partition

I am new to this and am wondering how many commands can I add to one partition?

Hi Kieran,
According to your description, you are going to figure out what is the optimal number of records per partition, right? As per my understanding, this number was change by your hardware. The better hardware you have, the more number of records per partition.
The earlier version of the performance guide for SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services Performance Guide stated this:
"In general, the number of records per partition should not exceed 20 million. In addition, the size of a partition should not exceed 250 MB."
Besides, the number of records is not the primary concern here. Rather, the main criterion is manageability and processing performance. Partitions can be processed in parallel, so the more there are the more can be processed at once. However, the more partitions
you have the more things you have to manage. Here is some links which describe the partition optimization

Shrink Volume or Partition Size

Hi,
This is my first questions in Sun Forums, I would like to shrink partition size because I created a volume and added /export/home to this volume and then used growfs command to get the new size. Now, I removed the volume, whenever I try to mount it says something about unexpected size. How can I shrink it ?
Regards,

AFAIK there is no way to shrink a volume in UFS - I have always made the new smaller volume, then used tar|rsync|cpio to move the data.

HT5639 I am attempting to install windows 7 ultimate on a mid2012 production macbook pro using Bootcamp 5 in Mountain Lion. Whenever I set the partition size and tell it to continue, the program quits unexpectedly. I have done this about 5 times now. Sugg

The lead-in above pretty much states the problem. I am attempting to install Windows 7 from a disk, but that is not the issue. Boot Camp 5 just quits and reopens. I then repeat. Help.

I am about to run specialized GIS software that may or may not need the full machine resources. I am an attorney who uses QuickBooks for my accounting. The Mac version does not do as much as the Windows version. This is from both Apple and Quick Books professionals. I am using Parallels Desktop version 8 at this time. It does not support QuickBooks Windows version per Parallels. Any other questions? I am a highly competent PC user who is new to Macs. I am entitled to my own configuration choices. That said, I know when I need help which is now.
As to the free space issue I have 665.18 GB free space out of 749.3 GB on the drive. I am not trying to run the 32 bit version. I know that it requires the 64 bit version. Besides, it does not get that far in the process. As I said Boot Camp asssitant terminates unexpectedly as soon as you hit the continue button after setting the partition size. Therefore I conclude that it does not have a chance to see which version of Windows that I am using. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version in the virtual engine (to use Parallels speak), but again Boot Camp would not see that since it is not running. It can't run at the momenet because Apple just installed a new hard drive and I have just restored the data from TIme Machine and Parallels needs reactivated, which I have not done yet deliberatley. With all of this addtiional information do you have any further suggestions? Thanks for your time and interest my issue.

1.8TB Hitachi HDS722020: "Partition size is not a multiple of 4K"

I picked up a 1.8TB Hitachi HDS722020 external USB drive, for an enlarged Time-Machine disk. The box says that it's usable on a Mac, but Disk Utility doesn't seem to like it.
When I attempt to erase it, it sits there, indefinitely as far as I can tell, trying to format it saying, "Partition size is not a multiple of 4K." I am able to format it as MS-DOS FAT32, but not in any MacOS (Extended) format.
Since it seems to be complaining about partition sizes, I was able to it into one partition containing almost all of the disk content, and another, "junk" partition that I presumably won't use very often. Unfortunately, the smallest "junk" partition it would let me create was about 190GB.
So, waddaya folks think? Should I return it to the store as a bad disk, or is there any reason to think that it's behaving in some sense correctly?

Hello mr88cet
In Disk Utility highlight the external hard drives first icon on the left side list and select the Partition tab. Then decide on the # of partitions you want, then click the Option box and set the Partition map Scheme to GUID Partition Table. Now then you should be able continue to on with any multiple partition sizing (if more than 1 was selected) and format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled)...
Just follow the Disk Utility prompts, it's really easy after you've done it a time or two.

My computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos has a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up

my computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up the library file because its not there. I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place. I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.

Details please
What version of iPhoto and of the OS?
i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them.
Exactly what did you do and how did you do it? this ay be the cause of your issue but without details we can n=ony guess
my iphoto only shows only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them,
where do you see htis? In the iPhoto window? what does "try to pen them" exactly mean?
originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark.
Ok - this usually has a simple solution - do you still have a copy of the library that has this problem?
also I can't back up the library file because its not there.
This makes no sense at all - all of your previous statements indicate that you do have an iPhoto library but have some problems with it
By default your iPHoto library is located in your Pictures folder and is named iPhtoo library - if tha tis not the case the you have moved or renamed it and only you know what you did until you tell us the details
I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place.
Again unless you actually share what and how you are doing thing but continue to simply state abstract problems it is no possible to assist you - details on using Time Machine are here -- http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US -- and -- http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html ---
I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.
This would be better addressed in the iDVD forum - but again unlesss yu share detailed information no one can assist

Boot Camp Partition Size/External HDD recommendation

After updating software, hardware, downloading Boot Camp Asst, and installing Windows XP Pro (have not yet downloaded Mac drivers or software, nor have I submitted registration of my WinXP Pro software, still have 29 days), I realized that I set the partition size too small and need to resize it. I read in other postings that I can copy the Windows partition to an external HDD from the Mac OSX side, then run Boot Camp again, delete the "too small" Windows partition, then run Boot Camp again and reset the partition size larger. Does anyone have detailed instructions to do this?
Also, can anyone suggest an external HDD for this purpose? I need to be able to share files between a PC and my 17" MBP running OS X 10.4.6. Specifically, I need to share (for editing purposes) audio files created with PC-based software with the Windows side of my MBP. The PC has XP Pro and MacDrive6 for Windows installed. I read the "Sharing a FireWire drive between Mac and PC" document on "The X Lab" website and, based on this, am leaning toward getting a FW (not USB) HDD and formatting it in Mac OS Extended format (not sure how to do this but cross that bridge when I get there). Does this sound reasonable? When I run Boot Camp again and have to choose between NTSF and FAT32 should I choose NTSF? Will I also need "SharePoints" or other software to share the Mac's FW drive with the PC?
I may have the option to share and backup files over the workplace network (if I take the time to set it up). Does anyone know if there advantages/disadvantages to this option?
Thanks for answers to these questions. Any help would be very much appreciated. Best!

Frank,
