Vdisk gets converted to type fixed from expandable during installation to native VHD...

I've tried everyway to Sunday to get work-arounds for this but I'm stumped...
I am breaking into the Windows 8.1 with Update installation after adding my license, and creating a setup to use Native VHD to install to.
I create a vdisk type=expandable, yet at some point during the installation it is getting converted to fixed!
I've tried everything I could think of including formatting it while in the CLI prior to refreshing the volumes, and selecting the VHD disk volume for installation.  Yet, after the installation is complete... the "actual" vdisk file should
only be around 11-14GB (regardless of the maximum size during its' creation with diskpart), however... sure enough, after Windows has finished doing its' thing and rebooting... the file ends up being the same size as the maximum property provided during the
vdisk creation with diskpart.... it should not be, it was of type "expandable" >.<
Why is this happening?

Hi,
It's not possible that without any settings, it converts into fixed disk. So how did you configure?
Please follow this guide to check if you have operated that:

    Apple supports most of their computer products for a 7 year period, could be that your IBook is well past any kind of help.Secondly parts are no longer being made for this machine and never will be again. Finally I find it hard to believe that nothing has been done with this for 6 years.Have you documented the reasons why you were turned down for repairs ? were the replaced Ibooks within a couple of months of warranty expiration? What model is your IBook ? At least if we knew what the model #, some of the more techy types could find out if there were any repair programs for your model.
    Seems odd that you'd hang on to a non-working IBook for that long.

    Problem updating After Effects CC (2014)  I get this message: Update Failed  Error encountered during installation. (U44M1P7)

    Hi,
    It’s version 13.1.1  It’s a trial version.
    I am updating it from the Creative cloud desktop application.
    I have the photography subscription with Lightroom and Photoshop with Creative Cloud.
    I was interested in trying out the video software and have trials of Premiere Pro as well as others.  The CC desktop app alerted me to the AF update just as it does for the others I subscribe to plus the ones I am using as trials.  I have not had any problems with the other apps (trial or not), only with AF.
    Thanks.

  • Has anyone been able to get a repair/proper fix from Apple for their LCD?

    The more I use my Macbook Pro while traveling the more i notice the 'sparkly/grainy' display. Compared to the White/Black Macbook it is obviously noticable what i'm talking about - especially on white backgrounds. My question is - has anyone been able to get a proper repair/fix for this common problem for the Core 2 Duo 15" Macbook Pro's?
    I normally have my Macbook Pro connected to an external display but when i do take it along when I travel it stands out more and more every time.
    Is Apple going to issue a 'recall/repair' for their customers who bought their Macbook Pro's? What am I to do here, When i need to use my laptop when I travel I can't take the annoyance of using this LCD screen.
    C2D 2.16 2GB   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Yes, I can CLEARLY see it, it's like wearing glasses that are filthy. The laptop is one week old and I could see it from after the 802.11n upgrade. This is not all that zoomed, really. To me it looks like a video memory problem, not a LCD problem. The problem is the same if I connect an external DELL monitor. Also very visible there. Also very visible if I change resolutions or number of colours. The main reason I believe it's a video memory thing is that when I move a window, it changes from white to, well... yellow and red. Check out: http://niklas.saers.com/MBP/MG8665.jpg That is why I am unsure if this is the kind of grain you are talking about. Can you confirm that this is the kind of problem you guys are seeing?
    PS, I use a Canon 20D with a 100mm f/2.8 macro lens.

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • Pcr To Get The Wage Type Value From Previous Years Master Data Records

    Hi
    I have an issue related to pcr.  I want to get the value of a wage type from previous year and it has to be added to another wage type.  Tried to write pcr by using the operation TABLE.  But i am not able to get the previous years data.  Request to help in writing the PCR for the issue.
    Thanks
    EKP Yadav

    1 - Create an "Information WT" that will be saved into RT but that has no impact on net pay.
    2 - Create a PCR that will be activated on the last pay of the year to read the WT you want and transfer it's information into your Information WT.
    3 - Create a PCR that will read the last payroll results (activated with function PLRT) and transfer into the Input Table (IT) the Information WT.

  • Can't expand during installation

    Ive been trying to upgrade to 10.7.2 for most of the night.  If i use software update, it downloads fine, but when i go to install it tells me that it can't install right now because the package failed to expand and may have been corrupted during download.  When i attempt to download directly from the apple support pages, it just tells me that there is an invalid checksum on the file (i turned off disk image verification to get around this) and when i finally get the DMG mounted, it just tells me that there is an unknown problem and installation cannot continue.  Ready to pull my hair out at this point.
    Any thoughts?

    Well I fixed it by booting into safe mode (hold Shift during restart) and using software update in there.
    Others have had this issue and resolved it by restarting and repairing disk permissions:

  • IPhone 4 disconnected from PC during installation

    Hello,
    I was updating my iPhone to the latest hardware update and it disconnected from my PC during the process, now it displays the iTunes logo and a USB cable on the screen. It will not turn on or be recognised by iTunes or my PC at all, I have tried reinstalling iTunes, rebooting my computer twice and nothing is working. I do not even get the message on iTunes saying that my iPhone 4 is in recovery mode. I will greatly appreciate any help and hope this is fixed as soon as possible .
    Thanks.

    Was the home button working before the failed install? If so look at this article and see if it helps. If the home button was broken before all this happened, then I'm not sure what to suggest.

    Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
    to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:

    >> I need to select from a dynamic column name and save the result in a variable, but seem to be having trouble with the values being fed to sp_executesql <<
    This is so very, very wrong! A column is an attribute of an entity. The idea that you are so screwed up that you have no idea if you want
    the shoe size, the phone number or something else at run time of this entity. 
    In Software Engineering we have a principle called cohesion that says a model should do one and only one task, have one and only one entry point, and one and only one exit point. 
    Hey, on a scale from 1 to 10, what color is your favorite letter of the alphabet? Yes, your mindset is that level of sillyity and absurdity. 
    Do you know that SQL is a declarative language? This family of languages does not use local variables! 
    Now think about “month_val” and what it means. A month is a temporal unit of measurement, so this is as silly as saying “liter_val” in your code. Why did you use “sp_” on a procedure? It has special meaning in T-SQL.  
    Think about how silly this is: 
     SET @month_val = 'Month' + CAST(@month_nbr AS VARCHAR(2));
    We do not do display formatting in a query. This is a violation of at the tiered architecture principle. We have a presentation layer. But more than that, the INTERVAL temporal data type is a {year-month} and never just a month. This is fundamental. 
    We need to see the DDL so we can re-write this mess. Want to fix it or not?

  • What type of adapter/ converter would I purchase from Apple if traveling to France? Does Apple even offer one?

    What type of adapter/ converter would I purchase from Apple if traveling to France? Does Apple even offer one?

    The power supplies used by Apple can be used with any line voltage between 100 and 240 volts so you done need any changes there.
    What you will need is pin adapters because the European socket require different shaped pins. You can get the pins adapters at any hardware store quite inexpensively.

    Hi joel,
    From this thread
    Shared Files - problems after upgrading APEX 3.0 to 3.1
    i have taken your words,
    In my development of the browser cache support for static files, I did notice some unexplainable behavior with IE and Firefox. When uploading static files and then testing them, it almost seemed like the browser would request the resource only some of the time (and then get the HTTP 304). If an Expires tag is not computed, I know Firefox will compute one itself.
    As per my understanding, Is it cache_expire should be calculated?
    I could not get that line.Could you please explain me.
    Thanks in advance.
    bye

    Hi,
    is this the 1st time you're posting this UT? If so, have you checked the "Indicate Update Types as posting relevant" customizing? If not, have you implemented SNotes recently? If so, check the OSS and in case there is no corresponding SNote to solve the problem -> create a OSS-message.

  • Excise invoice not getting converted into INR from USD for an IMPORT PO

    Hi All
    I have posted one Import PO. Did MIRO for custom and CVD. MIRO doc was in USD which is getting converted into INR as per the exchange rate maintained in OB08.
    Then I did MIGO with the ref of comm invoice of MIRO. Now MIGO doc is posted in INR as per exchange rate maintained in OB08 for custome duty and Freight and base value.
    For Excise invoice , CVD is getting captured but  in excise tab,  base amount is showing in INR  and currency also shows INR which is correct.
    Total Basic duty (BED) , Cess and Hecess iamount s coming in USD but curency is showing INR. After posting the doc also it has not getting converted into INR and the same USD amounts got posted in Excise GLs and currency still showing INR.
    For example:--
    PO value shows
    Base Price -  2040.20   USD
    Custome   -     204.20    USD
    CVD         -      179.54    USD
    Cess on CVD      3.59    USD
    H Cess on CVd  22.44  USD
    Now in excise invoice in Excise item tab
    Base value - 99960 INR (converted at teh rate of 49 , exch rate type M)
    BED -   179.54  INR
    CESS  -  3.59  INR
    HECESS 22.44 INR 
    Here only currency is changed to INR but amounts are still in USD. After posting the doc also same result is coming, hence Registers are getting updated with wrong values.
    Can any one suggest what to do to correct this.

    Customization for CVD maintained in Excise config -- company code setting-  exchange rate type for CVD is M.
    OB08 maintained for USD to INR for the current date.

    HI Tej
    All the Import cycle has created three documents.
    1. MIRO doc for custom duties and CVD .--   MIRO posted in USD .  I can see the doc in both currency -  INr and USD via accounting doc - display currency.  I do not have any issue.
    2. MIGO doc - for custom duty and Freight -   MIGO posted in INR , I can see accounting doc in USD and INR both via accounting document-  Display currency and even in the MIGO -- purchase order history tab.
    3. Excise Invoice - for CVD -  EX Invoice posted in diifferent way --
    In this document please note amounts for CVD is as per USD rate , but currency showing is INR , which is a mismatch.
    in Excise customization for company code setting - exchange rate type M is maintained. OB08 is also maintained for USD/INR
    Condition type JCV1 is also marked with currency conversion and accruals.
    Is there any patch or note I need to apply to getting this converted , or any process issue.
