You need a new RO flow restrictor. AquaSana can refer to this as item #130 or material #100236736.
Problem scenario
Your Linux server was installed over an old Windows server. You want to repurpose sections of the hard disk (e.g., sda1 and sda3). Linux has been installed, but some sections of the disk are not usable by Linux. What do you do?
Solution
Warning: This could permanently delete data. If you make a mistake you may need to reformat your Linux server.
Problem scenario
You are running Vagrant, but you get this error: “/usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:83:in `require’: cannot load such file — winrm (LoadError)”
You run “gem list” (or “sudo gem list”) and see winrm is installed.
What should you do?

gem list | grep libvirt
2. Verify that libvirt’s version is at least 0.6 or higher.
Problem scenario
You get an error about memcache and you are running PHP. Or you get an error “Unable to load dynamic library “memcached.so”? You run “php –version” and you see an error about memcache or memcached (e.g., a missing memcached.so file). What should you do?
Possible Solution #1
Get a memcached.so file from a working Linux server and place it in the directory that the error message showed in the “php –version” command.
