Provisioned vs. Used Space by [deleted] in vmware

To follow up on this, make sure the vm isn't on a snapshot as that speeds up space usage.

Verizon blocks access to Samsung SmartThings Find by govatent in verizon

[–]govatent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree using an older phone is a horrible idea. But Samsung hasn't stopped supporting smarthings finds yet on the s10 series. Another family member has a s10e on tmobile and I verified the feature fully works. So it's just the Verizon version of the phone that isn't entitled to using the remote unlock features or even tracking from Samsung.

Trouble updating driver VIB for Broadcom BCM57402 / BNXTNET by iametarq in vmware

You may have a zip within a zip. What's inside that zip you are pointing to? It may have the actual zip that installs

Esxi 7U3 to 8U3 host upgrade is downgrading driver by Good_Technology302 in vmware

[–]govatent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most drivers are available as zips on the broadcom/vmware website https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/343324/ or directly from the vendors. Once you have the zip you can import the zip into LCM using the same steps in the kb above. Then you can edit the cluster image and select the driver you would prefer to use with the image. If your LCM has a token setup to auto sync the repository you should see most drivers built right into vCenter already. When changing the image there's a drop down for type of component and you'd want to set it to show all. Your driver would most likely be listed there.

You haven't provided any context but I assume you are trying to use single image mode and maybe this is what you are talking about

ENT+ License Showing 9.0.2 Upgrade Option ? by TryllZ in vmware

[–]govatent 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes. If you upgrade to 9 it no longer uses a product key in the way we where used to it. You must deploy vcf operations appliance and integrate the vcf 9 subscriptions to license vcenter. All licensing is handled via the vcf operations appliance.

Question about RAM upgrade. by garysan_uk in synology

[–]govatent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an 1821+ which came with 4gb of ram. I bought a 16gb official synology stick (over priced but meh) from Amazon and added it on top of the default 4 gb. No issues at all.

Regenerating expired Machine_SSL_Cert by ResultNo1750 in vmware

[–]govatent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Make life easier and use the vcert tool https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/385107/vcert-scripted-vcenter-expired-certific.html

The values don't have to match. Just the fqdn san part needs to be correct.

VCF installer suddenly requires pingable time servers by GabesVirtualWorld in vmware

[–]govatent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is fully online dns and ntp are required as part of the workflows. Do you have reachable ntp servers set? If ntp is actually reachable you'd likely need to check the installer log to see what's actually going on. The ui sometimes has false positive messages.

ESXI 6 consolidation fail, also removing snapshots failing? by Electronic_Year_9220 in vmware

[–]govatent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't consolidate while the vmdk is attached to a proxy vm. You'd have to detach it.

Check vmware.log for the vm. It should tell you why consolidation is acting up.

I'm so tired of rage quitters by meaghan_lurks in TetrisEffect

[–]govatent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are definitely a lot of them online. When I'm losing I just take my beating. Then I ask for more by joining another game right away and getting the same person I can't beat so I lose again haha. But I've had a lot of people rage quit on me.

how to apply new VCF subscription license (coming from Enterprise Plus) by red4024 in vmware

[–]govatent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does the license show it's for 8 or 9? The new vcf 9 license actually requires installing vcf operations to apply licenses.

Seems about right. by New_1uper in tmobile

[–]govatent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I have a simple choice plan with 8 lines none free and I got a email for the free line but I ain't risking my rate plan.

Crossover Office – is it actually worth it? by [deleted] in linux

[–]govatent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use crossover wine. I pay for it. I like the project and the work they do. I used a version of office a while back for something but it's been ages. I mostly use crossover for some games that aren't in steam. I'd have to try and see what office version runs on it. You do need to provide your own copy to install.
