Storage Replica versus Robocopy: Fight!I've used Robocopy for so many years, that this blog post really caught my eye. Surely, Robocopy could not be beaten doing file copies? oh dear, it looks as though we have a new Sherriff in town.This copy tests both systemsunder various workloads:[originally postedby Ned Pyle]Hi folks, Ned here again. While we designed Storage Replica in Windows Server 2016 for synchronous, zero data-loss protection, it also offers a tantalizing option: extreme data mover. Today I compare Storage Replica’s performance with Robocopy and demonstrate using SR for more than just disaster planning peace of mind.Oh, and you may accidentally learn about Perfmon data collector sets.In this cornerRobocopy has been around for decades and is certainly the most advanced file copy utility shipped in Windows.

Get onto the integrated iOS + Mac OS and end support for "legacy" Mac 10.8 and earlier.
Force older hardware users like me to upgrade to new hardware which is where $$ are.
Make apps work across tablets, phone, and computer with similar (though not the "same" app, but able to read and use the same file format).
Simplify.
I don't think anyone incl. Microsoft knew Windows 8.1 was going to be a free upgrade, I didn't and read that it would be more like $30.
No OS is ready for everyone on the day it is launched. iOS 7 is now 7.04 and climbing, Mac OS tends to really not be ready until the last patch and version is out, often a year or more after it was first issued. Ship it, then plan to fix the bugs left in or that surface.
www.macperformanceguide.com is saying "No" to Maverick for now. Of course there will be no "No" on new Mac Pro 2013 6,1 when those ship (Late Jan? )

Windows 8.1 (64 bit) display driver for Satellite L630-12C SYSTEM UNIT

Hi I am looking for the Windows 8.1 (64 bit) driver for the display adapter on my Satellite L630-12C SYSTEM UNIT. The part number of the laptop is PSK04E-01W00FIT. The display adapter is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 made by AMD. I have searched for the driver both the Toshiba and the AMD website but couldn't find anything that worked. Does a driver exists for this adapter for Windows 8.1 (64 bit) or do I have to roll back to Windows 7? I would greatly appreciate your help in this mattter. Thanks Hussain

How do you repair the EFI systems partitions when you mac tells you that the live file system is not supported?

how do you repair the EFI systems partitions when you mac tells you that the live file system is not supported?

I don't have good news. You will need to repartition and reformat the hard drive in order to determine if the drive is still OK or if it needs to be replaced. If your computer is a 2011 model or later do the following:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
If your computer is pre-2011 model, then locate the original installer discs that came with the computer. Then do this:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. You can now download a version of OS X from which to upgrade from your Purchases page in the App Store.

Permissions repair: SUID file system/library/coreservices/remotemanagement/ARDAgent/contents/MacOS/ARDAgent has been modified and will not be repaired

I have a mid 2007 iMac running OS Mavericks and the hard drive is failing. When doing a disk permissions verify it shows SUID file system/library/coreservices/remotemanagement/ARDAgent/contents/MacOS/ARDAgent has been modified and will not be repaired. I do not have a backup of my system due to my external drive I use for backing up my system has stopped working. Can I repair this myself without having to reinstall the OS so I don't loose my any of my files.

You can safely ignore that.

My Imac 17" stopped working, repair says Motherboard? Help!

My trusty 17' Intel Imac stopped working, repair shops says its the motherboard and can not be repaired. Any suggestions? Help!
Thank you - Jeff

Time for a new iMac. Even if you could find another shop that would repair it, it wouldn't be worth putting a lot of money in. Better use of the money to put towards a new or refurb.

Where is Rescue and repair on my systems

Neither of my two units appear to have the ability to make my own restore disk.
My T41 has the recovery partition, but no Thinkvantage program.
My T43 has no recovery partition ( disc upgraded ) but has the Think Vantage program.
I cannot see any utility allowing me to create a restore disk for either machine and I can only seem to locate 'upgrades' to the Resue and recovery application.
There are rescue and repair downloads but these are only upgrades for versions that are already installed.
I cannot find a download for the original rescue and repair.
I am told I can make my own disks rather than order them from IBM.
Is there a simple solution to this?
TIA
Rob

You can make a backup of your current settings on a USB drive using ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery, I personally don't like it nor do I use it any longer, but this doesn't mean that the next person shouldn't give it a go.
As for recovery discs, you can buy them from lenovo or check with the marketplace of ThinkPads forum, maybe someone from UK might be able to hook you up with a set.
One time burning of recovery discs' limitation is from Microsoft, it's in the EULA.
Hope this helps.

Msi p35 neo2 fr motherboard - system freezes

Hello , I just bought a Msi p35 neo2 fr motherboard and I have this problem . My system randomly freezes ,no errors ,no blue
screens and I have to restart it . I tried each module of ram separately and I got the same problem .
The video card worked fine on my old system and I don`t think this could be . Also the standby led (led 3 ) is always on and red
Maybe I messed up the " wire up " . I could use some tips about how to properly wire up and which settings should be done in BIos for my configuration ?

Spread Spectrum
When the motherboard’s clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of the
pulses creates EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). The Spread Spectrum function
reduces the EMI generated by modulating the pulses so that the spikes of the pulses
are reduced to flatter curves. If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at
[Disabled] for optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI,
select the desired range for EMI reduction. Remember to disable Spread Spectrum
function if you are overclocking, because even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary
boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock
up."

Can't repair disk permissions, System Updates wont install

Hi there,
I wondered, why any system update wont install on my MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.5.5. So I tried to repair disk permissions which causes an error that calls something like "there is an error in quitting the process" (sorry ... have only the german version, so this is nearly what it says).
Repairing the permissions from a Leopard DVD ends up the same way.
Repairing the harddisk works fine.
Updating the 10.5.5 Combo Update quits with an error that says "The Installation package couldn't install some of the files in "/". Contact the Manufacturer."
Any ideas what this could be ? Thought it startet a couple of days ago with the installation of a new Java Version, but I'm not sure if this causes any problems.
Thanks for any suggestions

ok,
I've found this in the logfiles:
Started verify/repair permissions on disk disk0s2 Macintosh HD
Error -9972: The underlying task reported failure on exit
Finished verify/repair permissions on disk disk0s2 Macintosh HD
Error detected while verifying/repairing permissions on disk0s2 Macintosh HD: The underlying task reported failure on exit (-9972)
Repairing the keychains worked fine but didn't solve the problem at all.

Blue screen of death on Toshiba Satellite A215-S742 System Unit

i got the blue screen of death on my laptop. whenever i turn on my laptop, it loads up until the login page. then the blue screen of death appears and my laptop restarts and repeats. i have to do a hard shutdown. i can go into safe mode but i can do a system recovery (there are no recovery dates). even when i go into recovery mode, the blue screen of death appears after about 30min to an hour. i've tried updating the bios but it didn't work. i also tried using bootable cds with rescue programs but the cds dont boot (maybe im booting them the wrong way). what other ways are there to try to fix my laptop. please help!!!!!

Satellite A215-S7422
We need to know the Stop code on the blue screen. If there is a file name mentioned, we want that too.
You can prevent the rapid disappearance of the blue screen during a normal boot by choosing this at the F8 Startup menu.

How to repair fonts in ~/system/library/fonts

Hi,
FontDoctor reported an error in two fonts in my ~/system/library/fonts folder.
It seems that the affected fonts are TimesLTMM and HelveLTMM. The file size of both fonts is 0, so can I just delete them?
I also found files with many questionmarks in the name (e.g. ????????????????????? Pro W6.otf) that are more than 10 MB in size. Can I delete them?
Do I have to update sort of a font database after deleting the files?
Best regards,
Kurt

Hi,
thanks I'm in the help line
Hmm - good question. The ????? - fonts look like they are the Chinsese fonts. That's what I found. FontBook spells them with the right font - which is in that case chinese - while terminal only shows the ????
So I keep them and don't think that they are causing my original problem. That's why I started to check the fonts from the beginning.
My system is strange and doesn't read .eps files and produces pdf files that I cannot read an on PC ?!?
Coming back to the 0k files. I deleted them, used TinkerTools to delete the font cache and restarted the Apple.
eps files can still not be displayed but now it seems that font are not causing that problem.
So, thanks for you help with the fonts. Do you happen to have an idea what I could do with my original problem?
Best regards,
Kurt

Repair root file system

Is there a way to repair/reinstall Solaris 10 without touching the /export/home fs?
fsck keeps complaining that the filesystem is bad, please rerun fsck. smc can not start and there is some strange message that hardware digits:and:numbers is trying to be our IP address. as a result there is no internet and it is impossible to ssh to the box even though ifconfig -a reports everything is fine.
also, if the hard drive has got problems will the OS installer see this during installation?
thank you all
stephen

Is there a way to repair/reinstall Solaris 10 without
touching the /export/home fs?Yes. The installation will allow you to preserve slices if you choose.
fsck keeps complaining that the filesystem is bad,
please rerun fsck. smc can not start and there is
some strange message that hardware digits:and:numbers
is trying to be our IP address. as a result there is
no internet and it is impossible to ssh to the box
even though ifconfig -a reports everything is fine.
also, if the hard drive has got problems will the OS
installer see this during installation?Even in single-user mode, the root filesystem is already mounted read-write. You cannot usefully run fsck on a filesystem that is mounted read-write. It will always appear dirty.
A simple reboot will run fsck before reaching single-user. That should be sufficient. Or if you really want to check, boot from installation media. When you get a prompt there, run fsck on the disk's root filesystem. Since it's not mounted, it's safe to do so.

Conversion string from a system unit to another

Hi all i've a problem
i'm talking with an oscilloscope.
when i ask it some information like X or Y scale, it answers me a string (like 0.0016 to indicate 1.6m or 0.0000005 to indicate 500n).
I'm finding difficulties because the first string to number conversion cut me the number so i can't go on....
I want 2 number indicators:
1) with the value with 3 digits;
2) unit as an integer to connect to a ring array of constants (filled like mVolt,nVolt,pVolt ecc)
Can you help me?
