Use local storage with freenas

Hello,
a common trick that you can do in ESXi is this: you put a nas appliance (freenas) in local storage as iscsi target and use the same esxi as iscsi initiator.
Can I do a similar thing in oraclevm?
Thanks,
Mario

Can I do a similar thing in oraclevm?You can present storage from one VM to another VM, but I wouldn't recommend using for shared/repository storage as the agent will startup before the guest does, and the storage will not be available during boot.

Many thanks JEM24 for your help. Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone the actual cost of each additional gigabyte of storage to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.

How can I use Local SPAN with RSPAN ??

How can I use Local SPAN with RSPAN ??
I want to mirror traffics from ISP-A and ISP-B to Anomaly-detector module.
so I had configured like this...
C6500-A
vlan 1000
name RSPAN
remote-span
monitor session 10 source interface Gi5/1 - 2 rx
monitor session 10 destination remote vlan 1000
monitor session 20 destination anomaly-detector-module 3 data-port 1
monitor session 20 source remote vlan 1000
interface GigabitEthernet1/13
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1000
switchport mode trunk
no ip address
C6500-B
vlan 1000
name RSPAN
remote-span
monitor session 10 source interface Gi5/1 - 2 rx
monitor session 10 destination remote vlan 1000
interface GigabitEthernet1/13
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1000
switchport mode trunk
no ip address
end
but it was not working..
it wasn't any change of input packet hit count when
I'd enter a command 'show anomaly-detector module 3 data-port 1 traffic'
was upper configuration wrong..?
Can I use VACL configuration ?

try to change "monitor session 10 destination remote vlan 1000 " to "monitor session 10 destination anomaly-detector-module 3 data-port 1 " on C6500-A

Local storage with Content viewer

I have a problem with local storage since last update of the content viewer. We create a folio with exclusive HTML5 files using some data that have to be saved on the iPad (User ID). It works very well during one month but since the last update, we have a real failure with the folio and it's gonna be the same with our custommer if we don't find the answer… Can anybody help me please !!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your interest.
The folio we create is build to help doctors in work with the patients. The doctor has to fill an ID once and after that, have acces to two kinds of visit. We create a random asking to visit with support of videos or without (in fact, it's a nearly fake 'cos we control the total amount of visits with and without). Then he has to fill a form and when he push on SEND, he comes back to the first article. He saw the number of visit he already made and when he makes a new one, he don't have to put his id anymore. If we works offline, he must, at a moment, get a WIFI to send the datas from the visits he makes without connexion.
So, we use a local storage to remember the ID, the number of visits and the results of the form until he get a WIFI…
With the update, we realize that the Java Script seems not te be support anymore.
I hope you undersand my explonations with my approximative english wich s not my first language…

Using local storage

New to OVM - I have the server piece installed on a standalone machine with plenty of free space that my manager is recognizing as local storage.
I'm a bit confused on the template piece.
From the readme on the template media pack, I see "These templates when downloaded should be copied to the Oracle VM Server seed pool from which you wish to create VM instances"
How do I get the templates over there? I have them currently on my ovm manager server.
Thanks!

Never mind...didn't realize that the OVS directory existed on the VM Server. Maybe it got there when I added the physical disk as a repository in the manager? Either way...I can scp it over there....problem solved!
...now onto the next :)

Use Locale.FRENCH with "." decimal separator instead of ","

hi,
i need to change the decimal separator to "." for the whole application when the Locale is French. (i don't want to change the locale because of date and ok cancel button labels etc...)
i though the call DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance().setDecimalSeparator('.');
would change the decimal for the whole application but it doesn't.
here is a little test case
//display a JSpinner with Locale.US we have the "." separator it's ok
Locale.setDefault(Locale.US);
JSpinner spinner = new JSpinner(new SpinnerNumberModel(1.1d,null,null,1d));
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(spinner);
Locale.setDefault(Locale.FRENCH);
//i though it would change the symbol for the default instance so also for all jvm
DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance().setDecimalSeparator('.');
//display a JSpinner with Locale.FRENCH we have the "," separator it's not ok so previous line don't work
JSpinner spinner2 = new JSpinner(new SpinnerNumberModel((Double)spinner.getValue(),null,null,1d));
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(spinner2); i will appreciate any help.
thank you
Julien Blaize

>

JSpinner spinner2 = new JSpinner(new
SpinnerNumberModel((Double)spinner.getValue(),null,nul
l,1d));
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(spinner2); You figured out how to change the separator, but you promptly threw away the DecimalFormatSymbols object without using it.
JSpinners have "Editors". You want to look at the JSpinner.NumberEditor probably, and most likely you will want to find a way to provide your own number format for the JFormattedTextField that it uses to display numbers.

Yes, you can use multiple devices.

Using local variables with a case structure

I recently decided that I didn't want to nest a bunch of case structures for a program I am creating. I have two variables, N1 and N2, and I want to say execute Case 1 if the integer input to the terminal is less than N2. Case 2 if the integer input into the terminal is greater than N2 but less than N2+N1. Case 3, integer greater than N2 + N1, but less than N2+N1+N2. Case 4, you guessed it, Greater than N2+N1+N2, but less than N2+N1+N2+N1. When I try to type the variable name into the bar and use the ... like you do with integers it changes the variable name to a string.
Am I just thinking of this the wrong way? I have a sensor setup in a square and I am using a matrix card hooked up to the sensor bundle to send signals from each sensor to each other sensor, but not for those along the same sides.
Tom

I see the nested case structures which is what I didn't want to do, but I will have to because I am tired of looking at this. Thank you for the help on this. I appreciate it.
The sensor network is shown in the image included. Lets say we number the sensors in a clockwise direction starting on the lower left hand corner. Each element needs to both send and recieve data to all other elements except for the one in the row it is in. So sensor 1 would sent to sensor to sensors 5 - 18. Then sensor 2 would send to 5 - 18. Sensor 5 would sent to 1 - 4 and 10 - 18. Etc.
Lets say if this were a circular array it would be easy. Two nested while loops. And the only condition I need to worry about is that sensor N is not both sending and recieving at the same time. Each while loop, or for loop - doesn't matter, will start at 0 and go to N-1. Each i and j will have +1 added to them, and as long as they are not equal preform the data operation.
Just some fun logic to think about
Tom

Using local storage in OVM 3.3.1 as ext4 partition

I just installed OVM 3.3.1 on a new server and discovered that there is no longer a way to edit the partition layout, and that unused disk space is set up for use as a repository.
In previous releases, we used this space as another ext filesystem to stage isos and template files to be imported into shared repositories. We have no need for an internal repository.
How do we remove the device /dev/mapper/OVM_SYS_REPO_PART_36b083fe0ec02a2001c8bb3421152e7a1 so we can format /dev/sda4 as a ext filesystem and mount it up?

Hi,
if you want to import an ISO image, why you mount it?
after you complete your installation.
1- discover server. (if your installation is finished good, then you found your server in Onglet Servers and VMs / unassigned servers)
2- Go to Perspective / Physical Disk to verify that detect the second partition
3- if it's good, then crearte a pool with no Clustered Server Pool.
4- create a repository on your physical disk.
5- Go to ISOs in your repository and click import iso image.
Now, verify that your apache/httpd server it is working or not.
1- after you install apache/httpd
2- you shoud verify if it is running or not (pgrep httpd) if not start it (e.g. service httpd start )
3- copy the ISO file under /var/www/html
4- open your browser and verify.
and at this point i think it is good.
then copy the url to import the iso file with Oracle VM Manager
the URL Look's like http://IP-Address/image-iso.iso
you should verify that the IP-Address is reached from the Oracle VM Server.
and that's it
I tested it: and in my case:
i have copied the windows iso image:
cp ../windowsXP.iso /var/www/html/
and now my URL is like * http://IP-Address/windowsXP.iso*
I hope this can help you
Best Regards

Using remote storage with iPhoto and a laptop

Hi,
I'm considering moving my iPhoto library to a NAS hard disk. I am accessing this from a laptop and wanted to see if iPhoto can do this. What happens when I'm away from my home network and I open iPhoto which it won't have access to the remote disk? Will that cause any problems?
Thanks
Mike

Mike:
I don't know how well iPhoto will work with a NAS HD. The library works best on a Mac OS journaled formatted HD. There might be some problems.
As for opening iPhoto when you're away from the external HD iPhoto will offer to create a new library since it can't find the external. Will you be connecting wirelessly to the library? iPhoto has not been found to work well wirelessly. Any drop out during the session can cause the library's database file to be damaged. If that happens you can recover if you have a recent backup copy of the library's database file, Library6.iPhoto. The tip at the end of my signature will tell you how to backup it up easily and frequently.
Do a search in this forum for NAS or NAS hard drive to see other topics concerning this issue.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Local storage resource need and use. How it difference from actual VM instance drives?

Hi,
I am not able to quite understand the use of local storage resource that we configure from service definition file. The local storage is not durable and provides access same as file storage we would typically use in local environment like c:\my.txt.
As this local storage is not durable; so is the information stored on (for example C drive) role instance VM. So what is the advantage we get by using local storage resource? Instead we can save it on C drive of role instance VM. Why local storage
is recommended instead of using VM's drive?
Please let me know your views.
Mark As Answer if it helps you |
My Blog

Hi,
>>So what is the advantage we get by using local storage resource?
Because of the local storage is not durable, On a cloud service, we can create a small local storage where you can save temporary files, this is a powerful model for some scenarios, , especially highly scalable applications, please have
a look at below articlesfor more details.

VSphere High Availability with local storage

I am building a small virtualization system utilizing vSphere 6.0. The system will only be running about 10 VMs. I plan to use two ESXi hosts with Essentials Plus.
Unfortunately High Availability is a requirement. Due to the system being small, I'd like to avoid a SAN if possible and use local storage. I know I could use vSphere Replication, but if the host that is running vCenter fails, my understanding is that you're unable to restore the replica.
Is there anyway to achieve HA without using a SAN or shared storage?
Thanks!
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

In that field, no ip is configured at all.
We have other sites were HA is working perfectly and checked them, they also have this field empty.
EDIT: I inserted the IP address, but HA still times out

Local Storage Used When Using iMatch?

I'm using iMatch and streaming music to my iOS device. I'm curious if I'm using local storage space on my iOS device when doing so, and if so, is there a way to clear space as needed?

When you play (stream) songs directly from iCloud using iTunes Match rather than downloading them first, they are stored in cache memory on your phone. The cached songs are likely what you are seeing as taking up your space when you connect it to iTunes. iTunes Match is designed to automatically start deleting your oldest, least played songs when your phone's memory starts getting full. If you want to clear this memory manually, go to Settings>General>Usage, wait for the apps list to open and tap Music, tap Edit, then tap next to All Music. See if that clears the space as reported in iTunes.

Local Storage in SQL Server 2012 (Fast Track Appliance)

Hello,
Before procuring the Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Fast Track Appliance, we require additional information to satisfy the requirements from our infrastructure staff. What type of data is stored in the local storage? It seems that the local storage
may be used for computations functionality only (temporary tables etc?); therefore, the only system backups that we may need to perform are for the main server and spare server which also contains all computation nodes (each SQL Server 2012 instance running
on virtual machines?). In fact, we probably don’t need any backups since the spare server provides a fail-over mechanism and allows for our engineers to “repair” any issues on the problem server? Also, If all of our data is already on a separate system
outside of this data warehouse and can simply be exported back to the PDW system, then perhaps we don’t require backups? We simply use this data warehouse for analysis of the data (query and reporting). The data collection and maintenance are permanently
stored on a separate system.
One last question, if required – could we remove the local storage and replace it with our enterprise SANs? – likely a performance hit; however, may still be better than having to integrate separate hardware components to try to replicate the fast track
appliance and attempt to tune for performance. Our infrastructure policy requires the use of enterprise SANs and reduction in local storage (possibly from new data center consolidation policies).
Thank you for helping us to decide quickly and purchase this Fast Track Appliance expeditiously to meet our rapidly approaching deadline. I have been unable to find answers to these questions from Microsoft pre-sales and tech support staff (without
a support contract).
Thank you,
Vinh
703-727-5377

Hello,
Thank you for the question.
If the data in the local storage can be extracted from the PDW again, we don't need to backup them.
As for the storage replacement, technically speaking, you can replace the local storage with the different SANs. However, if you do so, you will lead the system to a nonsupport scenario.
Please refer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh918452.aspx for further information.
