VM creation fails copying image from USB NTFS disk

As I have limited disk space available on the server I copied the VM Template to an 500 GB NTFS USB drive and mounted it on /OVS/seed_pool
When creating the virtual machine it throws the following error:
Check Agent Version
Check Address and NetworkType
Register virtual machine img
Register virtual machine geninfo

StackTrace:

File "/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/OVSCommons.py", line 85, in run_cmd
raise Exception('%s => %s' % (cmdlist, p.childerr.read()))
Problem is: 'dd iflag=direct' isn't supported by fs type ntfs-3g which is the one used for mounting the USB drive.
I modified OVSXUtility.py and compiled it into OVSXUtility.pyc ... still VM Manager keeps running the original. (I am not python versed)
Is there any workaround?

Or if you don't want to repartition your USB drive, just use dd to create a large file big enough to hold your image and format that as ext3 and mount it, move your image into it and have fun.

  • How do you Automatically Copy Images From Camera?

    I would like to create an AppleScript that will run when I plug in my digital camera. Here is what I cannot figure out.
    How to make it run when the camera is plugged in.
    How tow to copy images from camera to a designated folder.
    Thanks!

    You can do all you requested - without 'AppleScript'.
    01. Connect your camera launch 'Image Capture' ('/Applications/' folder - if it does not automatically launch.
    02. Select the 'Image Capture, Preferences...' menu item.
    03. Click on the 'General' tab.
    04. From the 'Camera:' 'When a camera is connected, open:' pop up menu - select the 'Image Capture.app' menu item.
    05. From the 'Devices' menu select your camera from the menu items list. A window will appear with the title of your camera.
    06. From the 'Download To:' pop up menu select where to save the camera's photographs. You can select any folder anywhere on your hard disk drive(s).
    07. Click the 'Options...' button, and from the drop down sheet click on the 'Connection Options' 'Automatically download all items' check box - to add a check mark. There are other options you may have be interested in.
    08. Click on the 'OK' button.
    09. If you want to download the photographs now - click on the window's 'Download All' button. Or, to test the above setting changes - quit 'Image Capture' and disconnect your camera. Then reconnect the camera - and watch the above setting changes take effect.
    Note:
    The above automatic action can also happen if the storage device of the camera were inserted into a USB digital camera card reader. So long as apply the Steps above, and you select the USB digital camera card reader from the 'Devices' menu's menu item list in Step 05 above.
    'Image Capture' is not scriptable; but, may be control-able via 'tell application "System Events" to tell process "Image Capture" ....
    When a camera is connect to the Mac, the storage card of the camera is mounted onto the 'Desktop' and also listed, as an alias, in the (invisible) '/Volumes/' folder.
    Now that you know the name of the storage card ... you can create a 'Folder Action Script' (an example is presented below) and save it into the '/Library/Script/Folder Action Scripts/' folder,
    Open the '/Volumes./' folder (in 'Finder' via 'Go, Go to Folder' - enter '/Volumes/').
    Perform a right button click ('<control> - click, for single button users) on the 'Volumes' folder's window, and select 'Enable Folder Actions' (if not already).
    Rpeat the right button click (<control> click) and select 'Attach a Folder Action...' - selecting your script ('Volumes_FAS.scpt' as shown below).
    Below is a 'Folder Action Script' example - where you will have to substitute 'NO NAME' with the name of your digital camera's storage card's name.
    -- --- Save code as a script with the name 'Volumes_FAS.scpt' --- --
    on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
    set myStorageCard to "NO NAME" -- The name of my 1 GB stroage card. The name of your card may differ.
    repeat with i in added_items
    tell application "Finder" to set tName to (name of i) as string -- Obtain name of mounted storage card.
    if (tName is equal to myStorageCard) then my handle_card(i) -- If my storage card, continue processing.
    end repeat
    end adding folder items to
    on handlecard(localVolume)
    set folder_Path to ((path to desktop folder from user domain) as string) -- Path to 'Desktop' folder.
    set download_Folder to "NO_NAME Photographs" -- Name of folder to store storage card's items (files and folders).
    -- create download_Folder, if it does not exists.
    tell application "Finder" to if (not (exists folder (folder_Path & download_Folder))) then make new folder at (folder_Path as alias) with properties {name:download_Folder}
    -- Duplicate all the items (files and folders) of the storage device to the '~/Desktop/NO_NAME Photographs' folder.
    tell application "Finder" to duplicate items of local_Volume to (folder_Path & download_Folder) as alias
    end handle_card
    -- --- End of code --- --
    Review 'Finder's dictionary (in 'Script Editor') for the various ways to incorporate 'duplicate ...'.

  • How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
    I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
    I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
    Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
    This all works fine (very proud of it ).
    Now my question:
    To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
    Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
    Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
    extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
    something like:
    var pointer:Number=1;
    for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
    get MC_1.picure(var);
    put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
    pointer = pointer + 1;
    All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
    T.I.A.
    Melluw

    I tried your advice (thanks for that)
    The event I already have is the mouse leave
    I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
    The code I ended up with is:
    function Start() {
    stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
    function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
    var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
    if (CCW == true) {  //it is true in this case
      movStart = (50 - currFrame);
    else {
      movStart = currFrame;
    if (movStart>25) {
      MC_1.prevFrame();
    // removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
    // removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
    else {
      MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
    And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
    Nothing happens,
    So I guess this is not what you meant
    Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
    I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content.  So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
    I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file.  You probably just need to rethink your control scheme.  You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

  • How do I copy image from web and paste into Open Office Document

    Whenever I choose Copy Image from Safari and then paste into open office, I only get the image url and not the image. I am sure that I am not selecting Copy Image Address.
    When I copy images from my iTunes album artwork and paste into open office it works fine.
    Any thoughts?

    I have done the same thing using Firefox and it works just fine. It seems to be an issue with Safari.

  • Can I copy images from Album to Album

    Can I "copy" images from Album to Album and then expect to be able to export that data into Keynote?
    I put copy in quotes because I am such a new user I am not even sure at this point when I am copying or moving images as opposed to pointers.
    But the bottom line is that I need to know if I can use the data in Albums that I see images in for a presentation.
    Thanks.

    Aperture 3 does have a few things that work in different ways than Ap2, but dragging images to albums is the same. Cut/copy has never been a feature. It works in a different way. Allan

  • Get an image from USB cam without NI VIsion Acquisition

    HI
    I am looking for a way to capture images from USB cam without using a paid library ImaxDx for Labview.
    Have you any ideas?

    Hello MaxEngee
    Off hand, I suppose you could run the third party capture software in the background and have a LabVIEW scan the target directy for changes/new images and import the image as necessary.
    In the mean time, if you install the NI Vision Acquisition Software, you do have a 30-day trial period so perhaps you may consider exploring the environment to see if it is right for you.

  • How do you copy images from the internet and paste them on Microsoft Word

    I'm trying to copy images from the internet and trying to paste them on to Microsoft Word and Powerpoint for an assignment but it's not working. I tried to use copy and paste and then paste special but nothing is working. Saving the image onto documents and trying to open them on Microsoft Word still doesn't work.
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thank you

    Hi Lily, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    A screenshot can capture almost anything you're viewing. Hold the command and shift keys down, then press the 4 key and release all keys. Hold down the mouse button and drag the cursor to the size/area of the image you want to capture. Release the mouse button and you've captured the image. Remember that it is the individual's responsibility to respect copyright laws.

    Hi
    I doubt you could boot from USB flash disk
    As I remember the older notebook series support the booting from HDD, ODD, LAN and USB FDD drive (diskette). The booting from USB flash disk is not supported.

    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these:
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Can't copy image from Adobe Reader into Adobe Illustrator

    I am attempting to copy an image from a document in Adobe Reader 8 into Adobe Illustrator CS3. When I try this I get this message in Illustrator:
    "Quicktime^TM and a decompressor are needed to see this picture."
    I am running OSX 10.5.2, with Quicktime Player 7.4.1. I just purchased and registered Quicktime Pro but that has not helped.
    What I am trying to do is use the image select tool in Reader to select an illustration out of a long PDF document so just opening the PDF in Illustrator is not convenient, nor is extracting the image, saving it in another format and then importing it. Before I upgraded, I was running Illustrator 10 on MAC OS X10.3. I could use the image select tool in Adobe Reader to copy an image to the clipboard, and then paste that image into in Illustrator document. Very convenient. For some reason that no longer works with Illustrator CS3 and OS X 10.5.

    "Try opening the document in Illustrator. There will options for importing different pages etc."
    I can do that, but it is for my purposes much more convenient to do what I used to be able to do: open a document in Reader, scroll down through the document to find the image I want, select only that image (not the entire page) and then paste it into an already-open Illustrator document. Now what I have to do is 1. use Reader to find the image in the document and note the page 2. Open that page of the document in Illustrator and then 3. copy that page into the illustrator document I am working on and 4. crop to just get the image.

  • Acquire image from USB webcam

    Hey everyone.  I have a Logitech USB webcam that I would like to use to acquire still images.  I am using LV 8.2.  All the posts I have read suggest using NI-IMAQ for USB Cameras.  I have tried to install it, but it says "You must have Vision 7.1 or higher with LabVIEW 7.0 or higher, or you must have Vision Assistant 7.1 or higher installed to use this add-on."  I don't have Vision or Vision Assistant.  Am I doing something wrong?  None of the other posts seemed to mention that you needed Vision in order to use the add-on.  Does anyone know how I can acquire images from my USB webcam through LV 8.2 without having to buy additional software?  Thanks!
    Jay Mathews

    This question comes up often. That driver is something that NI provides as a convenience, and yes it requires additional software, as stated on the description for it. As for alternatives, did you get any software with the camera that looks like it could be used with LabVIEW, like an ActiveX library? That can certainly be used. As mentioned in this thread, supposedly RoboLab for LabVIEW has some tools, but I've never used it myself. You can also try the LabVIEW Webcam Library. Kind of old, though.
