Mounting more than 2 NAS volume on startup

I am trying to mount a bunch of NAS volumes on startup. Problem is I can only have 2 volumes mounted. Let's say I add Volume 1, Volume 2 and Volume 3 as Login items for a user, when I restart I only get Volume 1 and Volume 2 mounted. If I check the login items prefs, I have Volume 1, Volume 2 and Volume 1 again (instead of Volume 3). I tried on different computers even with different OS (10.9). This is very annoying Any idea??

Hi Toke Lahti;
With the additional information you just provided, all of the talk about RAID might have been a red herring in this case. If you will look here, you will notice that it might be the version of FCP you are using.
On the subject of your RAID, I still say that your configuration with partitions that are being used in RAID arrays is not the best solution. If it were my system I would seriously into changing the configuration so that you are not using partitions.

Advanced Search - How to display more than 4 criteria items on startup

In standard behaviour, only the first 4 criteria will be display on the advanced panel and other criteria should be manually added from the LOV. Is there any way to display more then 4 items on startup?
Someone suggest to use setDisplayedCriteriaCount, but someone tired without success.
Regards
Lawrence

Hi,
We had a similar requirement, but could not figure out the solution as per need, as its not suited to advanced region and controller code to achieve it seemed very complex as there was only one method to pin point which could help in adding new item (setDisplayedCriteriaCount), and it was also for oracle's internal use.(However we tried it and IT DID NOT WORKED.!! smiling.).(It does not allow more than 4 search items by default).
However the option you can put is to select the top 4 fields which they want in the search by default (then you need to modify the seeded page, which we did or reorder in controller).
Alternatively you may like to exploer options to programmatically generate the "ADD CRITERIA" event and handle it.(However this solution seemed very complex to us).
Please share your findings if you find any workaround.

Anyone able to mount more than 3 firewire devices on their Alum 2.4 imac?

Hi.
I can't power up more than 3 firewire devices or my imac kicks everything off. I have 2 Lacie 1T drives piggybacked on the 800 port and then a powered firewire hub plugged into the 400 port. I can have either another firewire external HD OR an external Cd/Dvd recorder plugged into the hub. If I try both (or any combination of 2 firewire devices) - the imac kicks everything off firewire, both on the 800 port and the 400 port. All my devices have their own external power supply. It also doesn't matter how I chain the drives. I can have 3 on the 800 port but then nothing on the 800 port.
This is a bummer for me. I migrated from a Dual G5 2GB with 4 external HDs and an 2nd external DVD writer attached. My drives are 2 1Ts, a 800 GB and a 400 GB. I do a lot of photography and video editing so I really need the external space. I guess this imac really isn't a "Pro" model but I didn't need any more speed and I wanted to save space and money. And I love the 24" screen. I think Apple should say up-front if there are significant limits to the imac's Firewire capabilities.
Are any of you you able to attach 4 firewire devices at one time? If so, then I guess my machine is defective and I'll start working with Apple on exchanging it. Please let me know.
Thanks

I think you should be able to do much more than 4 - I believe the theoretical maximum is somewhere at 20+ devices (if they are self-powered). I don't have a 24inch but instead a 20 inch but I'm running three HDs and one DVD drive and in fact, all daisy-chained onto one single firewire port on the Mac. Do your external drives have two ports or just one? In the former case, you might want to try skipping the hub and just daisy-chaining them. I've never owned a firewire hub so I don;t know if they can be touchy but you might want to give it a shot.

Can't mount a Firewire RAID 0 volume at Startup

I have two Firewire 400 external drives connected to a Mac mini. I created a RAID0 volume with the two drives. I find that the RAID volume is not automatically mounted when the system starts up or restarts. When I login to the machine via ssh and do a 'ls /Volumes', the RAID volume doens't show up.
I then login 'normally' on the Mac mini and notice that right after the Mac OS X desktop appears, the volume icon of the RAID volume shows up about one second after the boot volume's icon shows up --- I'm assuming the delay is caused by the RAID volume mounting after I login.
My question is: how can I make the RAID volume mount automatically when the system starts up unattended?
(Note: this problem might have just happened after a Mac OS Update to 10.4.6 -- or it might have behaved like this all the time but I never noticed. I've read the threads about the hazards of updating Mac OS with Firewire drives connected . Unfortunately, I have done Mac OS Updates with the Firewire drives connected but Disk First Aid says there's no corruption.)
Mac mini G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) PPC G4/1.42GHz/512K L2/1GB/167MHz bus/80GB
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2.16GHz 2GB RAM 256VRAM

I just wanted to follow-up with a correction and a workaround.
Correction: it's a RAID1 mirrored volume that I'm trying to mount at start-up.
Workaround: I went to my Account Preferences to automatically login as me when system starts up, and then set the idle logout time to 5 minutes (the minimum) in Security Preferences.
It's not perfect but the machine runs unattended anyway so it should be alright. I'm now very hesitant to update to 10.4.7.
In the mean time, please respond if you have any ideas.
Thanks very much!

Can I turn up the volume more than maximum volume?

I'm using iMac with no external speakers connected. I always want to turn up the volume more than the maximum volume but I don't know how to do. Is there any ways? Thanks.

Ahh, think about it a moment. It's called "maximum" for a reason.
If you want louder sound connect a set of powered external speakers.

Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

Hi Michael,
You can set the thresholds via an import file. The easiest way to do this (and this goes for all importable data, webapps included, 301 redirects and so on) is this:
1. go into the Admin and create a single item, in you case create a test product and set the thresholds
2. export that data - in your case export the product list
3. take a look at how the data looks like in the export file so you can get an idea of how the format should be like in the import file
Unfortunately you cannot set more than 2 thresholds, that is not possible at the moment.
Thanks,
Mihai

Can't turn up the volume on more than one podcast ITunes 11.1.1

This also happened in Itunes 11.1 but when I am in list view and select all podcasts to set the volume between 95 and 100 percent when I choose Get Info a message comes up, "Your selection contains more than one kind of media. All items must be the same kind of order to view or edit them together." I have maybe 1 or two video podcasts but mostly all of them are audio podcasts. I'd like to be able to turn the sound up on all of them at one time like I used to.

Yes, it just took some time to build the waveforms for the second track. I went and got a snack, and when I came back from the kitchen the waveforms were there. Thanks!

NCS - Disk volume 'optvol' more than 50% used.

Hi,
I recently installed NCS and have received a major alert stating the following:
"NCS disk volume 'optvol' is above the recommended disk usage, more than '50'% used"
The VM was created from the NCS OVA file and I only have one 2500 controller in NCS.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks.
Keith

I am updating my last post. I found the text below in the release notes for 1.1.0.58 for reducing disk usage. This would affect us as we are well over 5,000 clients.
Table 5 Data Retention Period for Aggregated Data - Recommendations
Aggregation   Default Recommendation for systems with more than 5000 clients
Hourly   31 days 15 days
Daily   90 days 60 days
Weekly   54 weeks   54 weeks
After making these changes, were able to get about a week of additional run time before the /opt partition started filling up again. We finally caved and added an additional 200GB virtual disk to the system.

Startup issue when having more than one database on machine

Startup issue when having more than one database on machine:
I’ve installed two databases.
When I shutdown one of the database and try to start it up using
Startup pfile=’…location..’;
I get ora-12514: TNS: listener does not currently know of service rquirest in connect descriptor
when I try it again after 3 seconds, I get a new error, ora-01041: internal error. Hostdef extension doesn’t exist
Shutdown and Startup gave no problems when I had one database. Why am I getting problems when I have two databases?
I’m using: show parameter pfile|spfile; to make sure I have the right parameter locations, so the error shouldn’t be from location.
I’ve never installed two databases on one machine, so maybe I’m making a first-timer’s error.
Anyone know how to get this working, i.e. starting and stopping DB without issues?
Using oracle 11gR2 on Windows 7 64bit, all is working normal.
Thanks,
Ayman

Still not working though.
When I start the services of both databases using Services, I can connect and run queries from both of the database.
Edited by: aymanzone on Jun 15, 2011 11:47 AMFirstly ... the Oracle Service for the instance should be started for the DB you are trying to connect or start.
Next ... from the command prompt:
set oracle_sid=<Instance_Name>
sqlplus sys as sysdba
startup pfile='location of the respective db pfile'
Now, if you want to start or connect to another DB which is on the same server (again assuming the Service is STARTED) ...
From the same command prompt session or other ....
set oracle_sid=<Other_Instance_Name>
sqlplus sys as sysdba
startup pfile='location of the respective db pfile'

Unit tests: more than one startup (teardown) process

Whether I can create more than one startup (teardown) process?
Mike

At this time if you need more than one you would need to use pl/sql and write them.
We will be adding ability to have more than one in the next version.

R3load cannot export more than 100 mount points for Oracle?

We have a DB with more than 390 sapdata### mount points (HPUX-PARISC). They are truly mount points, NOT directories under some other mount points.
After export using R3load (i.e NO DB-specific ), the keydb.xml generated for import has only from sapdata1 to sapdata100.
Is there any limit here for R3load?
Thanks!

R3load doesn't copy the filesystem structure but unloads the content of the database after having checked the size of it and then distributes it across the files.
Why do you have so many different mountpoints? Is there a technical reason behind? Just curious...

Hi Tony,
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Mounting Server Volumes Via Startup Items

I'm going crazy here trying to figure out what's going on with my wireless AirPort network!!!
While trying to set up the first G4 iBook (10.4.2) from an Apple wireless cart I've discovered that I can't get a server volume to automatically mount at startup. I'm connecting to an AirPort Extreme base station. The iBook has no problem detecting and connecting to the base station and allowing an Internet connection and you can manually connect to a file server. But if I add a server volume to the Startup Items I can't get it to mount the volume at startup.
Here's some stuff I've done to try to isolate the problem but nothing seems to point to a solution:
- If I connect via Ethernet, it works everytime - so the issue is definately AirPort related.
- Since I have 3 other independent AirPort networks (Extreme & Dual Ethernet) I tried connecting to them - no help.
- After startup is finished I can connect manually (Go/Connect to Server).
- Here's a real stumper... If I log out (not a reboot) & log back in - the volumes mount!!!
- Up until now I had my personal eMac (10.3.9) connecting and mounting the same volumes via one of my previously mentioned AirPort networks with no problems. In trying to solve this problem I cleared out my Startup Items, Keychains, etc. - now I can't get it to work either.
- I tried setting a new user in case it was some fouled up user setting - no help.
- I've cleared out and set up Keychains & Startup Items numerous times - no help.
- I disabled security - no help.
So in my opinion I've ruled out the following by process of elimination:
- System hardware - problem exists with eMac & iBook
- OS - problem exists with 10.3.9 & 10.4.2
- Base station - problem exists across differing base stations (Extreme & Dual Ethernet) & differing networks
- Users - problem exists with new user
- Security - problem exists with security disabled
Here's the one thing that seems evident....
The connection to any Airport network takes a momentary delay during startup - enough to cause to Startup Items (server volumes) not to mount. Since I can connect to the server manually shows that the AirPort connection is good. Logging out & then back in uses an AirPort connection that is already established and then will mount the Startup Items (server volumes).
I've seen some Internet posts that suggest using scripts to somehow delay certain Startup Items from executing until an AirPort connection is established - I would rather avoid that mess. There's got to be a better solution! This seems to me like a very basic function that shouldn't take scripts or other such voodoo!
I'm all out of ideas.....
Dave

Hi Dave,
I recently had the same problem. I think a recent update messed up the way I was using applescript to mount drives. I would get messages while the script ran that would indicate things timing out while looking for drives. After reading through a lot of forums I found that this script worked for me:
tell application "Finder"
mount volume "afp://user:[email protected]/VolumeName"
end tell
This is for mounting a Mac server volume. I think you use smb:// for a win server.
Let me know if this works for you.

[Solved] Alsa volume more than 100%

Hey,
just wondering if it's possible to raise the volume more than 100% if you just use alsa. In pulseaudio it's possible (up to 153%) and then the alsamixer shows also this value.
Best Regards

Have a look at this.

New iTunes on Mac doesn't allow me anymore to select all songs and 'Get info' to adjust the volume, like the old one. It says"your selection contains more than one type of media". They are all songs! Help please!

Not true. Select "Kind" as a sort category by right clicking the headings
Then click to sort by Kind
If your Import Settings are for Apple Lossless, AIFF, AAC or whatever the majority of your files are, convert MP3s to that file type.
I've presently got 17,000+ files in my library, and they're ALL MP3 or M4B(Audiobooks). If they weren't when I got them, I converted them. Saves a LOT of hassels with just this type of situation. Besides I have two non Apple MP3 players that WON'T work with other file types besides MP3 so, EVERYTHING I have has to be MP3.
