Onyz help.  What are maintenance scripts?

Hello,
I have just download Onyx for Mac. I was wondering if someone could explain what Daily, Weekly, Monthly maintenance scipts are, and if they are important to schedule to run on my computer? I was also wondering if there are any other useful utilities to use on Onyx to keep my computer running well aside from the scripts and disk permission utilities provided with Onyx.

Hi,
Have a look around in here...
Scripts
That site should tell you all you need to know. I hope so, if not all you need to do is post back with more questions. I am confident there will be some one around to assist you.
They, the scripts, are important. They keep your Mac running just as it should.
Onyx also has a useful help section that should answer any questions you have about it. If not... Post back if required.
Hope that helps some
Regards
Ian

  • Running Maintenance Scripts for Mac OS 10.5.8 HELP!

    I am trying to run the maintenance scripts on my laptop for the first time. I go to Terminal type in "sudo periodic daily weekly monthly" and hit return. A warning message pops up the some data may be lost.... and the the Password prompt comes up. I back up consistently so I just want to run the scripts since it has never been done. However, when I try to type in my password, NOTHING types. I hit return and tried again, but nothing. Can someone please help me figure out what is wrong and if there is any other maintenance I need to do to the system?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    You don't need to use any utility, or perform any procedure, to make sure OS X's built-in maintenance tasks have run under OS X 10.5 and later.
    OS X 10.5 will run its cron jobs automatically (actually, they are no longer handled by the UNIX facility "cron", they are now handled by a similar facility called "launchd". if that means anything to you) whether you have left your computer on all night or not. You no longer need a utility to run missed maintenance as of OS X 10.5. It will run automatically at the next available opportunity. Actually, this was the case as of OS X 10.4, but a bug kept the maintenance routines from running more than once per restart under OS X 10.4. This was fixed in OS X 10.5

  • Maintenance scripts, whats that all about?

    In this case I do not actually have a problem, but have heard about on other forums recently something about scripts running in the middle of the night, assuming you leave your computer on that somehow magically keep your Mac working properly. I did a search on the apple forums for this but to no avail.
    Anyone know what this is about? Does it actually work, and if so why?
    From my perspective it seems like one could cause more problems by always leaving a pc on, due to power failures or surges etc.
    Thanks in advance for some insight on this, or links where I could learn more.

    Yes, the Keebler elves are busy late at night keeping the computer problem free!
    There are three maintenance scripts that Unix runs on a daily, weekly, and monthly schedule. The scripts are run automatically between 3 and 5 am provided the computer is turned on and not sleeping. The scripts perform certain general maintenance chores such as deleting old log and temporary files, rotating the logs, and updating the lookup database.
    These maintenance activities prevent log files from growing to unwieldy size which also tends to keep the logs from becoming corrupted. This does help keep OS X running smoother, but they hardly keep OS X completely free of problems. Other efforts are needed:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior. DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption. However, DW is not yet compatible with Intel Macs. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 is Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility called Macaroni that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk 6 (Shareware)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. SuperDuper (Commercial)
    6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - not universal binary.)
    7. LaCie SilverKeeper (Freeware - not universal binary)
    8. RsynchX 2.1 and PsyncX 2.2.1 (Freeware)
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.

  • What are CLASSPATH settings to run WLST scripts from JYTHON

    Hi,
    I am trying to run a Jython script that uses WLST calls.
    Following steps were done
    1. Run WLST.sh
    2. writeinit("wl.py")
    3. Invoke Jython and then do "import wl"
    The import fails with error
    from weblogic.management.scripting.utils import WLSTUtil
    ImportError: No module named weblogic
    Looking at the wlst.sh, it extends classpath for bunch of jars like
    if [ -d "${WLST_HOME}/lib" ] ; then
    for file in "${WLST_HOME}"/lib/*.jar ; do
    CLASSPATH="${CLASSPATH}${CLASSPATHSEP}${file}"
    done
    fi
    Question - what are all the files to be added to classpath ? Is there a script to explicitly set classpath for all relevant jars for WLST usage ?
    Any help will be appreciated

    You shouldn't need to press the Sync button. In the Pod options menu for the share pod, with the PPT loaded, you will see an option for Show Presentation Playbar. Use that to get the Play button for the Hosts and Presenters in the room, and press play. The presentation will now play in a looped mode for everyone in a synchronized mode. You can also then hide the playbar to keep other Hosts and Presenters from stopping the playback and the Participants will never see the playbar or have the option to stop the presentation.
    Additionally, if your focus is on the Share pod (has the focus highlight), you can use the 'P' key to begin playing the presentation without revealing the playbar to anyone. Adobe Connect 9 * Accessibility features

  • Yosemite 10.10.2 server app. FTP help. I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac folder. It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?

    So I have set up a localhost area in my Mac. I have the new server.app and I am running yosemite 10.10.2 .
    I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac .
    It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?
    I am pretty certain that the Serveris "localhost",
    Name is my macs name (like my-mac-min)
    password is "my login password"
    and they suggest port 21.
    But what is the file path, lets just say my site is set up http://localhost/siteftp and is actually at my Users/Sites/siteftp folder.
    Why cant this program connect to the mac.
    Is it because they are both operating in the same localhost enviroment,
    could it be my folder permissions are not correct on siteftp folder?
    Help please !

    I tried turning the computer off and then back on. The alerts don't show the notice to update as resolved. Hopefully this is not a problem or an indicator or another problem. Should I ignore or reload 10.10.1 from the app store to trigger a resolved check in a green circle?
    Interesting that I had to buy server software after my free Yosemite download. I would have hoped that the two pieces of software would have gone together without any complication. It is not positive to end up buying a problem. Ah well, time to move on.
