Windows 10 HP notebook login

1. administrator account is disable 
2. User account set password
3. admin mode cmd : compmgmt.msc , set User password 
4. admin mode cmd : netplwiz , tick and untick "User must enter a user name and password to use this computer" , then apply , then will prompt enter password, enter the password . click ok to exit
5. 但是就算你設定開機時自動登入，登入介面也會在鎖定介面出現，小編希望連這些鎖機介面都略過，你需要在 Windows 設定→帳號→登入選項之中，在「需要登入」的拉下選單之中選擇「永不」follow "https://www.newmobilelife.com/2015/08/24/win-10-auto-login/" 

[RESOLVED] How to reduce very large catalog size?

You do not have to use full cataloging if you want to perform file recovery from disk images (unless they're stored on tapes). Without catalog you only lose an ability to search for files by their size or modified date or select a version for restore from a set of version for a given file. If you know the exact date and file path, you can restore it with reduced cataloging too.

Just answering my own question here - Acronis advised to delete the catalog subfolders with the large catalog files. So my steps were to set cataloging to Fast instead of full, delete the catalog folder with the large catalog file, and cycle the Acronis services.

Hello Julien,
the files in the system directory are just the cache of the files residing next to the .tib files. You can delete them, but they will be recreated as soon as you address to the vault where the tibs are. For now, the only way to stop this behavior is:
1) to switch off cataloging (Edit backup plan > Plan parameters > Backup options > Backup cataloging)
2) to delete the files manually from both the system directory and the vault you are backing up to.
A kind of cataloging still will be performed, but the files will not be so huge.

1. Catalog is too big

If Catalog is too big you can:

• Move the catalog to another location
• Delete the old catalog and use Fast Cataloging to reduce catalog size
• Disable Cataloging

etherchannel and spanning-tree

1. Etherchannel

EtherChannel considerations
info http://packetlife.net/blog/2010/jan/18/etherchannel-considerations/

Hi

I was doing a bit of searching on PAgP & LACP and found this, thought it might come in handy for some. I never realised the commands did what is stated below, must have missed this in the book or had one too many wines at that point 

http://www.edgenetworks.nl/etherchannel.html

channel-group [#] mode on (disables PAgP en LACP)

channel-group [#] mode off (disables PAgP en LACP and prevent the ports to form a port-channel)

channel-group [#] mode auto (use PAgP in a passive mode, it will wait until a PAgP packet will be send)

channel-group [#] mode passive (use LACP in a passive mode, it will wait until a PAgP packet will be send)

channel-group [#] mode desirable (use PAgP in an active mode, it will start to send  PAgP packets)

channel-group [#] mode active (use LACP in an active mode, it will start to send  LACP packets)

假設現時有 16 個 Port 在同一個 EtherChannel，由於所有 Port Priority 預設都是 32768，因此系統選擇 Port ID 最小的 8 個 Port 成為 Active Port，其他則成為 Hot Standby。

2. Spanning-tree

vSphere doesn't show health status for the server / pwhicu / vmware VIM_VCDB clean up as Vmware support team do

problem : health status monitoring alert , not show , keeping show blank and 

vCenter Service Status show blank

Health status alarms can also be associated with vCenter services.

In your vSphere client go to the home page with the tiered icons, in Administration, go to "vCenter Service Status" and you'll probably find something in there that is causing the alarm to be triggered.

 No Service "vCenter Single Sign-on " running or installed . ( due to vmware auto update uninstalled) ? 

Sphere doesn't show health status for the server

I'm not sure if this is too late (or now irrelevant), but just in case a quicker way is wanted, you can restart the necessary service through vSphere Client:

Click the affected Host(s) in vCenter

Click Configuration

Click Security Profile

Click Firewall Properties

Highlight CIM-Server

Click Options

Click Restart

result : not work . 

then , manual , stop and then start . 

status : show running afterward 

follow up : REMEMBER to click update (if present , not blank) . then wait in "Hardware Status" tab for 5 mins . (this confirm not work)
