Total disk size in mb!

Hi,
I am writing a script to get information on disks for Solaris 10, does anyone know of a way to print out the size of each disk on the system in MB i know how to get it in GB and could do some number manipulation however it would be better if I could get it in Mb originally!
Regards
Chris

hi,
im using iostat -En and greping out the CD drive etc, I think i will have to stick with the size in GB and just use awk to manipluate the numbers. Maybe you could help I need a script that takes a value checks the units e.g if its GB it will times the value by 1024 then remove the GB from the end if its in MB it will just remove the MB and if its in KB it will divide by 1024 and remove the KB. Can you help im rubbish with awk!

Re-read disk size in Solaris 10 x86 / VMware

Hi
Using
# uname -a
SunOS host1 5.10 Generic_142910-17 i86pc i386 i86pc
We have a 30G virtual disk, on top of which a UFS filesystem is living, mounted, and used.
The Virtual disk has been resized to 40G.
I know I need to change the fdisk partition size, after which i can change the "format" partition size, then use growfs.
But I don't know how to get S10 to recognise the new size for the disk.
fdisk tells me
Total disk size is 3916 cylinders

Time Machine backup disk size - total capacity of disk or just files used?

Hi folks,
After upgrading to Leopard, I'm trying to set up my Time Machine. My main HD is 175 Gig and all the OS and other files take up 37 Gig of that. The drive I want to use for Time Machine (a spare internal hard drive) is a 75 Gig drive with 74 Gig of space available. Time machine says this drive is too small to use.
According to the Time Machine documentation, Time Machine takes the _total size of the files_ to be backed up and multiplies that by 1.2. So in my case, since the total files on my 175 Gig drive take up 37 Gig, then I would need only 42 Gig for my Time Machine back up. So, in theory, my 75 Gig spare drive should work just fine.
The problem is that Time Machine is taking the total size of the entire HD and using that to calculate the size of the back up drive, which would be 210 Gig. Does anyone know why this problem is occurring? It seems like Time Machine is not calculating the needed back up disk size properly and is incorrectly including the unused disk space on my main HD.

Not sure exactly, but your drive really is too small. Yes, 37 gb plus workspace would do for your initial Full Backup, but subsequent incrementals could fill it up pretty fast. That would depend, of course, on how you use your Mac -- how often you add or update files of what sizes.
If you change your habits and, say, download a multi-gb video, then work on editing it for a few hours, you could eat up the remaining space very, very quickly.
Just to be sure, how are you determining space used? Via right-click (or control-click) and Get Info on your HD icon?
Also, do you have any other HDs connected? If so, exclude it/them, as TM will include them by default.
Three possible workarounds:
First, get a bigger drive. HDs have gotten ridiculously cheap -- 500 gb (or even some 1 tb) for not much over $100.
Second, use CarbonCopyCloner, SuperDuper, or a similar product instead of TM. CCC is donationware, SuperDuper about $30, I think. Either can make a full bootable "clone", and CCC has an option to either archive previous versions of changed files or delete them. CCC can be set to run automatically hourly, daily, etc. (I suspect SD can, too, but I don't know it's details). An advantage is, of course, if your HD fails you can boot and run from the "clone" until you get it replaced, then reverse the process and clone the external to the internal.
Note that these will take considerably longer, as unlike TM, they don't use the OSX internals to figure out what's been added or changed, but must look at every file and folder. In my case, even smaller than yours, TM's hourly backup rarely runs over 30 seconds; CCC's at least 15 minutes (so I have it run automatically at 3 am). And, if you don't keep previous versions, of course, you lose the ability to recover something that you deleted or changed in error, or got corrupted before the last backup.
Third (and NOT recommended), continue with TM but limit it to your home folder. This means if you lose your HD, you can't restore your whole system from the last TM backup. You'd have to reload from your Leopard disk, the apply all OS updates, and reload any 3rd party settings, then restore from TM. As a friend of mine used to say, "un-good"!

Disk size is drastically reducing after the Dense restructure

After Clearing empty blocks the number of blocks are coming down by 10% showing that empty blocks were existing in the database. At this point in time total size of .PAG file remains constant (Before and after clearing empty blocks).
We did a restructure of database the number of blocks remained constant but the .PAG file has drastically reduced to less than 50%.
We are trying to understand why would the 10% block reduction is casuing the disk size reduction by 50%.
Thanks for your inputs!
Edited by: user3942062 on Mar 14, 2013 3:31 AM

The .pag file contains free space, not just that left behind by CLEARBLOCK EMPTY but also where blocks have been modified and no longer fit back into their original slot (so Essbase has to expand the .pag file to fit them back somewhere else). For example, if a block is taking up 2K on disk but you then load additional data, the block's footprint on disk may increase to 3K. Essbase can't fit it back into its original 2K location, so it leaves that 2K chunk of the .pag file empty (at least for the time being) and finds 3K elsewhere.
Only restructuring the database physically releases this space.

Understanding audio minutes vs total file size

I'm trying to figure out the relationship between audio minutes and total file sizes, when burning files from my library to an audio CD.
I'm using 700 MB CDs, which, on the labels, indicate 80 minutes. The selections I want to burn total 6 hours of audio, but only 560 MB of data, as shown at the bottom of the playlist.
Is the total amount I can burn really limited to the number of minutes?

When burning AudioCDs your are limited to those 80 min.
If burning MP3 disks your are not limited by playtime but filesize (approx 680 MB)

PSE 11 freezes when calculating total media size during a full backup

Like many other users on these boards, I am unable to complete a full backup of a particular catalog on my machine using PSE 11 (or PSE 10 for that matter). I have four catalogs on this machine and three of the four complete the full backup process without any problems. That last, non-cooperating, catalog is much larger (7,389 photographs) than the others, but I do not think that this would pose a problem.
Following other advice and guidance, I have removed all videos, audios, projects, PDFs, and audio captions (in other words, all media types other than photographs) from the catalog. The only files remaining are photographs (that is, JPG files). I attempt to complete a full backup and, when calculating the total media size, the PSE 11 application freezes at five to six percent. I have attempted this in PSE 10 as well, but with the same results. (I was hoping that the new release would fix the problem. No luck.)
The only other item of note is this, when I search for the various media types, I see the message "no media to be displayed" in the middle of the organizer window. However, when I search for video, I do not see the message--the organizer window is blank (no text message as seen for the other media types).
Lastly, I have reconnected all missing files. (None.) Optimized the catalog. Fixed errors in the catalog anyway. (None.)
Does anyone have any other ideas on how I can complete a full backup of this catalog? A large cash reward awaits... (kidding). Please advise. Thank you!

I found that backing up with other software does not maintain the stacks, versions and albums. These are lost, even if I write the metadata to the files...that only keeps the tags, in my experience. PSE 12 doesn't fix the problem so no need to upgrade unless you want to for other reasons.
I do have a solution that worked for me. There are quite a few steps but worth the effort if it also solves your problem.
The main culpret in my case were "Locked / Read Only" files. Since I did several things simultaneously, I may have had video file issues as well.
Here is what worked for me:
A. First: Save your "Meta Data to Files".
1. On the Organizer Main Screen click "File" -- "Save Metadata To Files"
B. You can have Adobe find files that it doesn't like by having it search your "Pictures" directory.
1. On the Organizer Main Screen click "File" -- "Get Photos and Videos" -- "By Searching".
2. Find your "Pictures" directory in the "Look in" drop down box & click on it.
3. Click "Search"
4. When the "Search results" are complete, click "Select All" -- "Import Folders".
5. A "Getting Media" dialog box shows the results.
6. Click the "Reason" header to sort the results.
7. Scroll down to display any errors that Adobe finds.
8. Make note of the "path" and "file name" under the "File" header.
9. Use Windows Explorer to find and fix the issue(s). Look for "Read Only", "Locked", "Archived" or "Hidden" files and change the attribute. I believe that these are part of the problem.
10. Check for non-picture or video files that Adobe can't handle and move or delete the offending files.
Note: I have files with these extentions and they work: AVI, BMP, CR2, GIF, JPG, MTS, MOV, PDF, PNG & TIF.
Note: I had: ZIP, TGA, SHS & PPT files that I moved or deleted. Adobe shouldn't import files it can't handle, but I removed them just to be sure.
11. Try your backup again.
C. If the above doesn't work you can narrow down the issue by trying to back up the database selectively by Photos, Video, Audio, Projects or PDF.
Note: Many people believe that "Video" is the culpret, so I suggest that you rule that out first by removing your Video files from your catalog. This does not delete them from the hard drive. They can be added back into the catalog but there may be some loss of information for Stacks, Versions or Albums so remove Photos from the catalog as a last resort .
1. On the Organizer Main Screen click "File" -- "Manage Catalogs".
2. Click "Current Catalog".
3. Click "Repair" in "Catalog Manager"
4. Click the check box "Reindex Visual Similarity Data".
5. Click "Repair Anyway".
6. When complete, click "Optimize" in "Catalog Manager".
7. Click "Cancel" in "Catalog Manager".
8. On the Organizer Main Screen click "View" -- "Media Types".
9. Uncheck all but the "Video" option.
Note: "Photos", "Audio", "Projects" & "PDF" will be unchecked and you will only see "Video" files displayed.
10. Click "Edit" -- "Select All"
Note: Be cautious during the next few steps.
11. Click "Edit" -- "Delete from Catalog".
12. Caution! - DO NOT click the "Also Delete The Selected Items From The Hard Disk" check box.
Note: You don't want to delete the video files from the hard disk you only want to remove them from the catalog.
13. Click "File" -- "Backup Catalog" and complete the backup to the desired location.
Note: You may have to resolve some missing file(s) issues
Note: Hopefully you now have a backup of all your photos.
14. Assuming that this was successful, you then know that video files are the culprets and have to go digging. You can selectively add them back by type.
15. If not successful, you will have to selectively add (rescan) or remove (as above) the media types until you find the one(s) that created the issue. Remove "Photos" last to avoid information loss.
Good Luck!

Tempdb- Disk size Requirement for Tempdb Database?

Working on new project that have fresh windows and SQl Server Install on physical machine.
Like to know what should be the disk size to keep for tempdb Intially? like 10Gb or 20GB? It will be on separate Drive .
Also like to know what should be ideal drive size to keep for Data and Log drive? They both will be on separate drive also.
any other configuration best practices ?
Thank you
Please Mark As Answer if it is helpful. \\Aim To Inspire Rather to Teach A.Shah

Hi,
Size of the tempdb depends on various factors.
Bulkload operation
general query expressions
dbcc checks
indexes
LOB Variables and parameters and many more.
As others suggested,monitoring is the best way.Try the below in test environments.
Set autogrow on for tempdb.
Execute individual queries or workload trace files and monitor tempdb space use.
Execute index maintenance operations, such as rebuilding indexes and monitor tempdb space.
Use the space-use values from the previous steps to predict your total workload usage; adjust this value for projected concurrent activity, and then set the size oftempdb accordingly.
Refer the below link for optimization.

Cisco wave virtual blade disk size shrunk, unable to restore vblade

Hi All,
I applied the workaround listed by Cisco for bug CSCsy47235 on our wave device, which is also mentioned numerous times on the forum here, to do: disk delete-data-partitions and reload. after the reload, we are unable to restore the backed up blade image file, we get the error: '162GiB image is too large! 160GiB image is allowed'. when i try to create a virtual blade, the maximum disk size has reduced from 162GB(before the change) to 160GB(after the change).
Any idea or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Jack

Hi Tim,
These disk size are fixed and cannot be altered, hence you will not be able to allocate the unused cifs/dre to vb disk or the unused vb disk for cifs and dre.
There is no way to increase this as well, as most of these are determined whne you load the software and the partition table is fixed. Hence you wont find any maximum numbers. 32 gb is what you will get as part of wave 274 and wave 474 and that is the maximum disk space. You can split this across two virual blades , allocating them 16gb each , but however the total still cannot exceed the maximum of 32gb for all the virual machines.

Total Swap Size decreasing dynamically?

We have a problem with the size of our swap slice decreasing by itself. I've never seen anything like this and I'm not finding any information on the net. How do I find out what is changing the total swap size? How do I stop it? Thanks.

TonyBrickner wrote:
Sorry, I'm asking the wrong question then. And thanks for the clarification.
Before we rebooted we had this for the swap filesystems
swap 103M 32K 103M 1% /var/run
swap 119M 16M 103M 14% /tmp
After a reboot it went back up to 9.9G and after an hour we are left with this as the current.
swap 3.0G 32K 3.0G 1% /var/run
swap 3.0G 3.4M 3.0G 1% /tmpYou should see similar information in running 'swap -s' at those times (but with a little more information).
In other words, the amount of available swap has decreased over time until you ran the first command. After reboot, you have much more VM available. Neither 'swap -s' nor 'df' has detail to tell you where that space has gone. There are other tools to do that.
I'd start with 'echo "::memstat" | mdb -k' and review what it says.
# swap -l
swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
/dev/md/dsk/d30 85,30 16 8395184 8395184
# swap -s
total: 405080k bytes allocated + 8036560k reserved = 8441640k used, 2575184k availableI don't know if you ran these commands very close together in time with the ones above, but you can see that there is about 3GB of swap available in both the 'df' and the 'swap -s' output.
so now I am just confused. the far left numbers in the df command can fluctuate?Yes. Whereas an on-disk filesystem is normally static in size (or is resized with explicit commands), the tmpfs filesystem makes use of available virtual memory (swap) for it's storage. The amount of available VM goes up and down during the lifetime of the machine. So the "size" given to statvfs is calculated based on that.
If swap was using that filesystem for storage shouldn't the used and available numbers reflect that and the total size (far left number) never change?It's the other way around. Swap isn't using a filesystem for storage. It's a virtual filesystem that is using swap for storage. In the df output, the storage is the thing on the left (swap) and the filesystem is the thing on the right (/tmp).

WMV and Disk Size issues

So I am a pretty avid Encore user and I have come into some issues lately and could use some help.
Background-
I filmed a 14 hour conference on SD 16:9 mini dv
I captured 14 hours with Premiere as .AVI - I edited the segments and exported as .AVI
I used Media Encoder to convert the files to NTSC Progressive Widescreen High Quality (.m2v) - Reduced the file size drastically
I then used Media Encoder to convert the .m2v files to .wmv files - Reducing the conference size to 5.65 GB in total.
I then imported the .wmv into Encore - my issues begin
At first, Encore CS4 imported the .wmv files without a problem however the disk size (of 5.65 GB) registered in Encore as around 13 gigs??? Why is that? The .wmv files only consume 5.65 gb on my harddrive. Where is this file size issues coming from?
So then Encore CS4 gets upset that I have exceeded the 8.5 DL Disk size and crashes...
I reopen the program and try to import my .wmv files again (forgot to save like an idiot). 3 of 8 .wmv files import and then Encore starts giving me decoder errors saying I cannot import the rest of the .wmv files...
Can anyone help me with this issue? Im quite confused by all of this. Things seemed to work fine (sorta) at first and now Encore is pissed.
I want to get this 14 hour conference on 1 DL DVD and I thought it would be as simple as getting the files reduced to a size sutable for a 8.5 gb disk. Why is my way of thinking incorrect?
Thanks for any help,
Sam

Im still not giving up.... It's become an obsession at this point. My uncle does this with kids movies for his children. He'll download and compress entire seasons of children shows and put them all on one dvd which he then plays in a dvd player for them to watch. Im currently trying to get ahold of him....
Thanks for the help
Sam
i've done this as well for shows that are never to be seen again for the light of day from the 80s and such... i use VSO Software's "ConvertXtoDVD v4" i ONLY use this for archival purposes of xvid or wmv or stuff that encore would throw fits over. the menus are all mainly default stock stuff. but for these projects i'm not concerned about menus or specific navigation, i just need to get the job done. i can squeeze around 15 hrs of 720x480 on one DL (it compresses the ever living dayligths out of the video... but for most of the source footage... it really doesnt matter at that point, its mostly all VHS archives i use for this program anyway) if you just absolutely HAVE to have a 1 disker, you could check that app out, burn it an see how it looks.
edited to add: that to really squeeze crap in, you can also use a DVDFab program (any ersion should do... Older ones are cheaper) make a disc image with ConvertX, if yiu have alot f footage it may push it beyond the normal boundary of a dvd-dl and fail the burn. So then you can just import the disc image into DVDFab, and choose it to burn to a DVD-DL, and it may compress it by about 3-7% more to fit it. I would NEVER use this method EVER for a client... But if you are just hell-bent on doing 1 disk. Tries these 2 apps out. It may work out if you can live with the compression.
if you do try this, I recommend trying this workflow. Open premiere with your first gem captured AVI. set up your chapters how you want them or whatever, then save each chapter or lecture or segment or whatever as it's own AVI. the. Import all those separately into ConvertX and set it up to play one after the other when each segment ends. [i can't confirm this 100%, because i usually drop in already compressed files... but if for some reason it don't wanna work out... then i would suggest dropping in the mts files instead] (if say you want a new "movie" for each lecture instead, and have chapters per movie that can be done too... But it's more work, but I can expound later if need be) To save time on encoding, set up the menu to be the "minimalist" menu. It's strictly text. Then just create sn ISO. if you donthe full thing, I can almost guarantee you'll have to use DVDFab to burn to disc, because it'll probably be about 5-8% overburn.

Disk size in Solaris 10

I have some confusion about disk subsystem in Solaris, i am trying to clarify from this forum.
I have recently installed Solaris 10 in one SPARC box. After i installed, the format gives the bellow output.
0 root wm 19491 - 29648 4.88GB (10158/0/0) 10239264
1 swap wu 0 - 4062 1.95GB (4063/0/0) 4095504
2 backup wm 0 - 29648 14.25GB (29649/0/0) 29886192
From the above output, is the size of my disk is 14 GB ?, or the size of my disk is 14+2+5=21 GB ?
I am trying to learn ZFS, so i want another partition in this disk so that i create ZFS on that partition.
I have gone to single user mode by using CD. I assumed that, from the above "format" command output, i thought i have 21GB of disk size and 14GB of free space. So i created another partition with 14GB. Now the format command gives bellow output.
0 root wm 19491 - 29648 4.88GB (10158/0/0) 10239264
1 swap wu 0 - 4062 1.95GB (4063/0/0) 4095504
2 backup wm 0 - 29648 14.25GB (29649/0/0) 29886192
3 reserved wm 0 - 29127 14.00GB (29128/0/0) 29361024
When i am creating ZFS, it given me a warning that the the partition i have specified is spanned into root partition (first partition), and it mentioned to use "-f" option.
With "-f", it created successfully.
If i assume now that the size of my disk is 14GB only then,
(1) how come two partitions are pointing to the same area in the disk ?
(2) How come two different filesystems are pointing to the same area ?
Please anyone clarify my doubts. Thank you.

Assuming a standard labeled disk it is standrad practice to have section/slice 2 being 'whole disk' for purposes of 'backup'. That would tend to indicate you have a 14GB disk. A prtvtoc /dev/dsk/c?t?d?s2 (change the ?s to the right values) will give a little more on the disk geometry.
In the display from format column 4 is the start cylinder of the partition and column 5 is the end cylinder. From the first set out output it looks like cyclinders 4063 to 19490 are not allocated
In the second set you have created a new slice (section 3) that overlaps both sections 0 and 1 - which is generally considered to be bad!

MS 6147 max memory and disk sizes

For the MS 6147 can anybody confirm the max Hard disk size and max memory.
It will not recognise the 40Gb HD I am trying to fit, and only recognises half of the 256Mb memeory simm I have fitted.
The BIOS version is 1.9 but I think that is a 'special' by Packard Bell. The MSI BIOS download site makes no mention of disk problems rectified right up to V1.8 which is the latest, with the exception of one for the ZX chipset only which addresses EDMA 66 problem.
Anybody got a definitive answer on this?

Supports a maximum memory size of 256MB (8M x 8) or
512MB (16M x 4) registered DIMM only
how many chips on dimm is what counts with older boards
go to drive makers web site get jumper settings to limit it to 32gb and try

Is there a max SATA disk size in OSX 10.4.11 and G4/1.25?

Hello,
I am trying to set up a G4/1.25 (2 gig in memory) as a fileserver with a SATA card and 2 x 3 TB seagate disks. This is the setup:
http://lowendmac.com/ppc/mdd-power-mac-g4-1.25-ghz.html
http://firmtek.com/seritek/seritek-1v4/
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Seagate/ST3000DM001/
The system is OSX 10.4.11. I am unable to initialize the disks in disk utility. The process starts but then halts and says that it can not continue.
My question is if there is a max disk size in OSX 10.4.11?
Any help greatly appriceated.
Best regards,
Ingolfur Bruun

Hello again,
I tried to work my way around armed with your input and succeeded
By using a FireWire dock I was able to see the disks in 10.4.11. What I did was to partition the disks with ONE partition in Disk Utility and then format with GUID partitioning scheme instead of the Apple Partition Mapping scheme which I had done before. And as I am using a ATA disk as a startup disk it dosen't matter if the 3 TB disks are not bootable. They will only be used for data, not as system disks.
You saved my day! Thanks again.

How can I display total playlist size in iTunes 11. It used to be visible for each playlist or CD, but I can't find it now.

The Friend: Thanks from me too for that super simple fix!! I feel kinda stupid for not knowing that.
Too bad Apple didn't:
Give it a more intuitive name than "Status Bar"... "status" is what is shown at the top of the window along with the Artist and Song Title, e.g.; how far into the song/podcast/video I've played and how much is left,
Put the keyboard commands in a more prominent place in their release notes when version 11 came out so we could more easily find the information they decided to hide in this attempt to make the desktop less cluttered and
Allow us the option of displaying the data size along with the song count and duration just beneath the playllist title. The status bar is a redundant listing of information except for the data size! Poorly conceived!
Perhaps Apple will remedy this in a future release. For those of us who like to burn our playlists to CD, DVD and even a thumb drive this information is essential. WIthout it, we're left to guess whether a given playlist will fit on our target device.
Thank you!

Total disk size in mb!
