Shutdown and overclocking

new problem...maybe. today my system shutdown itself. I restart it and it would start then stop, start again and then stop. I thought it might be something with the power supply so i disconnected one of my 2 gtx 260 video cards do reduce the power drain. It started and gave me a message shown here.
What is not shown in the picture is "133x20=2660" in the upper right corner. I have never touched anything that has to do with overclocking and no one else uses this system. The cmos was set to optimized defaults. Since it set itself to a default setting, I plugged the second GTX 260 back in and things are working again.
1.) does the i7 quad core overclock itself for some reason?
2.) I was plugged into an APC 800 backup UPS and I have a Corsair HX1000 power supply. Is this a problem?

That's way too high, even for 100% load. Reinstall the heatsink.
It is? I found another thread on this forum where it was mentioned that intel and msi said the IOH runs hot and to expect temps up to 100C. How do I go about changing the manufacturers heatsink on a board? Ive never done that before and cant find any procedural help thru google...
Ive been able to replicate the issue by running ram up to high usage. When I get above 98% ram allocation, I spontaneously reboot. So It could be a ram issue as well. Of would that be something possible IOH related as well?

Hello All,
I have a 15" i7 Macbook Pro from early 2011. The past few weeks, it has been getting increasingly difficult to get on my computer. It takes the mac laptop two or three tries to boot successfully. It would turn on, show gray screen, shut down, turn on again, show gray screen, shutdown, and then turn on, show gray screen, before it can finally get to the dark gray log-in screen. Even when I finally get logged in to start working, thinking it would be okay now, it shuts down randomly.
I've ruled out the possibility of a software problem because I've just done a clean re-install of Mac OS X Mavericks on my computer just yesterday.
I did upgrade the RAM recently, about a month and a half ago, from 4GB to 16GB, I went to the apple store four days after that upgrade to have them do a hardware test, and clean the inside of my laptop, which helped with previous heat issues. When they did the hardware test, the hardware was all registered as fine from their system.
I've tried resetting the SMC, PRAM, and doing the internet recovery hardware test, but to no avail. I thought I could at least find out what parts needed to be replaced from the hardware test but it seems that when the hardware test is almost finished, the computer just shuts down, So I am unable to see the results.
My computer is also having battery issues, under battery condition, it says "replace now," parts have been ordered, waiting for arrival. But if the battery health is low, it should still boot up fine, it would just hold a significantly less charge.
Could this be a hard drive issue?
Has anyone had similar symptoms and how was it resolved?
Does anyone know what I can do to alleviate this issue?
I haven't had time to take it to Apple because I'm currently taking a 21 credit semester academically. I'm an art and design student so my computer is basically the bane of my existence. Help! Any constructive advice is welcomed!
Thank you so much for your input!

Mac Pro crashing on shutdown (and some other things)

The following behavior began about 4 or 5 days ago...
Mac Pro crashes/freezes every time I shutdown (or Restart). Some process seems to be not quitting on shutdown - the screen goes blue and I get the spinning beachball. It'll just hang like that indefinitely. To get it to shut down, I have to hold the power button for several seconds. After starting up again, the machine *mostly* runs fine, but there are some apps/services that either just don't do anything, or causes the Mac to hang, or get into a funk state. These other things that seem to destabilize it include:
Apple menu > About this Mac: nothing happens (no dialog)
iTunes: dock icon just bounces, iTunes never launches
System Prefs > Accounts > Login items: System Prefs hangs. Force quit allows Prefs to open again.
Some apps/services also cause things to hang:
Activity Monitor: quitting some processes causes Actvity Monitor to freeze
Clicking SOHO Notes (tab alonmg the edge of the monitor) results in spinning beachball
Rolling over Linotype FontExplorer in the Dock causes the Dock to freeze, FontExporer never opens
There are probably other things that would make it hang, I have not gone looking for them all
System details:
Mac Pro 4,1 .66 ghz, 8 GB RAM
Mac OSX 10.6.8
Dual monitors, two internal hard drives (internal; drive A, internal drive B), multiple external FW hard drives attached
I have already done the following:
Disk Utility: Verified and Repaired Disk Permissions
Disk Utility: Verified Disk, Repaired Disk - this found errors, and suggested reformat/reinstall
I have already booted off internal drive B and ran Disk Utility, then restarted and booted off internal drive A again. No difference.
I have Time Machine backups on an external 1 TB FW drive.
Late last night, I restarted, inserted my original Snow Leopard DVD, launched the MacOSX installer. Recovered a prior system by choosing Utilities > Restore System From Backup, selected a Time Machine backup a few days old (a day or two prior to the problem begining) on the external 1 TB FW drive, and initiated the restore. The estimated restore time was about 5 hours, so I went to bed and let it run. Got up early, and checked: it said the Restore operation was successful. I was relieved. But the same conditions continued - launching or rolling over the items listed above cause the same freeze/crash/hangs. Hangs on shutdown, only way to kill things is the power button. So now I'm disappointed.
I do have multiple backups of my data files across the external hard drives, but this is a large machine with a lot of stuff on it, and I'd really like to recover things wholesale, rather than having to reconstruct accounts and other things. Before I go to bed tonight, I'm going to take another shot at recovering the system from a Time Machine backup - this time, I'll pick a backup that's from a full week before the problems started (the idea being that maybe the backup I picked last time was not far enough back from whatever incident caused all this).
If the week-old Time Machine backup works, great. But if not...any suggestions?
Additional data points...
Nothing new was installed or updated (as far as I know, and I generally pay attention) in the days prior to the problem.
The last thing I recall doing on the computer before the problem began, was burning a DVD (using Toast) - something I do all the time. After that operation, I tried to shut down, and it froze.
The primary internal hard drive partition (internal drive A) seems to be the only one that's having trouble: if I reboot off of internal drive B, the problems do NOT occur - no hang on quit, etc.
That suggests it's not a hardware problem (logic board, etc.) but is something about the System on drive A.
It *could* be bad sectors on drive A - but I have some questions about that...
When I did the full system recovery via the MacOS installer (pulling the old system from Time machine), does the destination drive get reformatted? I don't recall being asked the usual partition/formatting questions.
When the installer does a system restore, does it do any integrity checking on the target drive, or does it just blindly lay down bits?
Does this "freeze on shutdown" (and related behaviors) sound familiar?
Any tips/suggestions to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

More info and a question...
Did another full restore (from a Time machine backup on an external drive) last night - picked a backup from from 10 days ago, long before things became problematic. Still having the same issues.
So, I'm thinking the next thing to try is a low-level reformat of the internal drive(s) and then restore again. I have a couple questions about the finer points of that...
I'm following the instructions in this KB document: Mac OS X 10.6: Recovering your entire system.
Inserting my original Snow Leopard DVD, launching the MacOS installer, restarting, in the installer choosing Restore System from Backup. It appears that there is no re-formatting of the target drive in this case - it just over-writes.
My questions...
The contents of the target drive are going to get wiped and overwritten anyway. Do I have anything to lose/to risk by reformatting FIRST (using Disk Utility), then booting off the install DVD and restoring then?
My 1 TB internal drive is partitioned into the primary 750 GB partition (which is the problematic one) and a secondary 250 GB partition (which boots and runs fine). The secondary partition has some data I would prefer not to lose. I assume that if want to do a full reformat of the internal drive, that means the whole drive - both partitions - will be wiped (that is, I cant reformat just one partition on a single physical drive without reformatting the second partition). Correct?
I suppose I can back up the data that resides on the second partition to an additional external drive (I have extras) if needed - not a huge deal.
Do my new partition sizes need to exactly match the sizes of the original partitions? Neither is completely full, but I want to make sure that I will be able to restore the system and contents of the primary partition even if the new partition size is not bit-by-bit the exact same size as the old partition (I assume the new partition size just needs to be large enough to hold the backup - correct?).
So....I'm looking at the following sequence:
Back up the data I want off the secondary partition to an external drive
Boot off the Snow Leopard install DVD
Run Disk Utility and reformat (fully erase) the internall 1 TB drive
Partition that 1 TB internal drive to (more or less) the two previous (about) 750 GB + 250 GB partitions
Restore a recent Time Machine backup (from an external FW drive) to partition #1
Reasonable plan? Anything I'm missing here? Any other steps I should take?
Thanks for any help.

Why do I get a popup message in multiple languages requiring a shutdown and restart

Why do I keep getting a popup message in multiple languages requiring a shutdown and restart? Has been going on for a few months. Because of the shutdown reports have been sent to Apple upon restart.

After it restarted, did you see a dialog box resembling this one:
If so, next time it occurs click Report...
Before you send it to Apple, copy the text of the report. Paste it in a reply. Remove or obscure any personal information, should it appear.
If problems continues to occur please determine if they also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

System Shutdown and User Logout Freeze

Recently my Powerbook 15" G4 (FW800) compute running 10.5.7 has been having issues with both shutting down and switching to a different user from the Finder Apple menu.
You can select "Shutdown" from the Apple Menu and the system appears to close all programs properly including the Finder but my desktop image still appears on the screen and I have to hold down the Power button for about 5-10 seconds to force the computer to turn off.
In addition, if I try to log out of the current user using the Apple menu to try to switch to my other one the system again appears to "hang" with just the desktop image on the screen.
Initially when either of these attempts are being done you can hear disk drive activity but the desktop image stays on the screen even after leaving the computer alone for 10 minutes or more.
I've tried resetting the Parameter Ram at startup and even went as far as trying to reset the PMU by holding down the Open Apple-Control-Shift & Power Button (Apple says to hold down Shift-Control-Option-Power though) and I thought that had fixed the issue but after another reboot the computer is back to just sitting there with the desktop picture on the screen after shutting down.
I've run the computer in "Verbose Mode" and when the computer properly shuts down you can see the desktop photo go away and the verbose mode come up on the screen for a moment before the computer completely shuts down. But recently, after selecting shutdown on the screen, the computer never makes it to the verbose screen meaning "something" is causing it to hang after it closes all the processes but before it gets a chance to get to the verbose screen and close up shop.
Does anyone know of a preference file I can delete or something else I can try to get this computer happy again? Other than the above listed problem the computer works completely fine.
Any suggestions or other people that have had similar experiences are appreciated, thanks!
Mike

Friend, I feel for you. I have the same problem on two PPC machines. I have watched posts about this problem for about a year now, and I have yet to see anyone come close to a fix.
I'm going to tell you how we keep it from happening 97% of the time (on both our machines). It's really weird, but it works. When we're going to shut down, we open a few folders and let the machine calculate the sizes of the items inside. We use the Applications folder and the Utilities folder for this. Once the machine has shown the sizes of the items in the window, we close the window. Then, from the Apple Menu, we choose Shut Down (or Restart, if that's what we're doing). The dialogue window appears, asking to confirm that is what we want to do. Now, WAIT as it counts down. Click "OK" when the countdown hits 55 seconds remaining. I know it sounds goofy, but believe me, it works. If we do not follow this routine, the shutdown or restart will fail and we have to force quit the machine.
Now, we've been doing this for a long time - probably about a year. Since we started having to follow this silliness, we have installed a second hard drive in the desktop machine and also now use a portable FW HD with my laptop. On the laptop, I always eject the external HD before shutdown or restart. On the desktop machine, we simply open at least one big folder (usually Applications on a clone backup partition, and on the other partition just some big folder), let it calculate the sizes of the enclosed items, then close those folders. Following these actions, we use the previously described procedure.
Try it and let me know here if it works for you.
I know it sounds totally insane, but it works. It's a pain to do it every time, but it beats a forced shutdown and the chance of data corruption. I've given up on a solution; we'll probably replace these machines before there's a fix - judging from the lack of success other have with this problem.

When I went to update my iPod touch on iTunes, it said unable to update then the iPod shutdown and no longer showed connected in iTunes. I have tried holding down both buttons for up to 3 mins with no luck turning it on, even after a full charge. Help?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipad 2 will only charge if the system is completely shutdown and it can take up too 7-8 hours to reach 100% 2 hours later I'm down to 12-13% what's wrong with it?

My grandson's IPad 2 won't hold a charge. It will only charge when the system is completely shutdown and it can take up to 8 hours to reach 100%! he's only 5 so he uses it to watch netflixs and playing games but a couple of hours after finally getting a full charge the indicater is down to 12%-13%. Keeping the system plugged up while he's using it doesn't do any good its like its not even plugged up. What could be wrong? Any assistance would be appreciated! I brought the IPad 2 in 2011 and gave it to him in 2013 when I brought myself the IPad Air...so its really not that old to be acting up...

XFCE - Shutdown and Reboot buttons greyed-out (SOLVED)

This issue cropped up for me a couple of weeks ago. Just sat down to try and find a solution. Followed several suggestions from several posts to no avail.
Finally discovered that the syntax for achieving this in "/etc/sudoers" has evidently changed.
This is what I got from the XFCE site: http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=21331 and is very similar to what's in the Arch Wiki, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_Shutdown. So I had been using the following line in /etc/sudoers and it had been working:
%users mylaptopname=NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/xfce4/xfsm-shutdown-helper
At some point in an XFCE upgrade the path to "xfsm-shutdown-helper" changed to "/usr/lib/xfce4/session/xfsm-shutdown-helper"
I changed the path to "xfsm-shutdown-helper" but that didn't solve the problem.
Finally I tried this in /etc/sudoers:
%users ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown -h now,/sbin/reboot
And all the usual options in the shutdown menu re-appeared.
Hope this helps someone.

Replying to my own post because of what I've discovered since I first posted this.
Most importantly, the fix which I thought had fixed this problem didn't really work. I was snookered into thinking it had. But I've found another solution which appears to be working now, thus this post.
Here's what I've found.
I had no login/display manager on my laptop. I was auto-logging into my desktop with this setting in /etc/inittab:
x:5:once:/bin/su myusername -l -c '/usr/bin/startx >/dev/null 2>&1'
The snooker alluded to above was this: If I booted to a command line and issued "startx" to start XFCE, I would have the shutdown and reboot buttons available on the logout dialog.
But if I booted directly into the desktop, I didn't. It's taken me a while to figure out that this is what was going on.
Even though my old setup had worked for the almost 2 years I've been using Arch and XFCE, some upgrade somewhere in recent months prevented it from working any longer.
My final fix was to install a login manager, in my case, lxdm. And set it to auto log me into my desktop.
I now have the expected reboot and logout menus.
Hope this helps someone. This has been a bear to figure out.

Different ways to shutdown and startup instance in 10g

I have just installed 10g on my win2003 server. There seems to be 3 different ways to shutdown / startup an instance in 10g.
1. via SQLPLUS (how its always been) with shutdown and startup commands
2. via the new OEM Web interface
3. Start / Stop the NT Service for the instance
questions:
- Did I miss anything other methods?
- how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB login, when shutdown or startup? but via SQLPLUS I only have to login using as DBA? different level of security?
- When shutdown via either SQLPLUS or OEM, the NT service is still shown as "started"? so does this mean that the NT service is more than the oracle instance???
Thanks
Clo

how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB loginWith SQL*Plus, you are already logged into the Operating System. There is a OS session in progress. With OEM web interface, it has to first start a OS session and then connect to Oracle using Oracle credentials supplied to actually shutdown the DB.
the NT service is still shown as "started"? The difference between NT service started or not started (given that the database was already shutdown) will be:
When NT service is started but the DB is shutdown, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Enter user-name:When NT service is stopped, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
Enter user-name:The NT service needs to be running for you to be able to do a STARTUP or SHUTDOWN on the database. You will NOT be able to STARTUP if the NT service was not running (STARTUP will not start your NT service automatically).

WebLogic Datasources : Automatically Shutdown and Start up

Hi there,
I have a problem with my datasources, I have WLST script which shutdown and start automatically some datasources in my environment, all of them in my crontab !
Follow exactly my script !
[weblogic@wls_server restartDS]$ cat shutdownDS1.py | more
connect('weblogic','password','t3://server:10000')
domainConfig()
servers = cmo.getServers()
domainRuntime()
for server in servers:
try:
print 'check ' + server.getName()
print '/ServerRuntimes/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCServiceRuntime/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCDataSourceRuntimeMBeans/MYDATASOURCE-XA1'
cd('ServerRuntimes/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCServiceRuntime/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCDataSourceRuntimeMBeans/MYDATASOURCE-XA1')
objectArray = jarray.array([], java.lang.Object)
stringArray = jarray.array([], java.lang.String)
invoke('shutdown', objectArray, stringArray)
except WLSTException,e:
print server.getName() + 'is not running.'
for server in servers:
try:
print 'check ' + server.getName()
print '/ServerRuntimes/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCServiceRuntime/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCDataSourceRuntimeMBeans/MYDATASOURCE-XA2'
cd('ServerRuntimes/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCServiceRuntime/' + server.getName() + '/JDBCDataSourceRuntimeMBeans/MYDATASOURCE-XA2')
objectArray = jarray.array([], java.lang.Object)
stringArray = jarray.array([], java.lang.String)
invoke('shutdown', objectArray, stringArray)
except WLSTException,e:
print server.getName() + 'is not running.'
exit()
Don´t worry, I have another script which kill XA3 and XA4 datasources as well, so, this way, I have load balancing here !
It works with CRONTAB !
The problem here is : Doesn´t matter if datasources are running or not, simply , datasources automatically shutdown and after that, start it! But I would like to improve this, I would like to implement datasource status condition, I mean, when datasource it become overloaded, it kill automatically , this way, I would not use crontab, but another kind of trigger |!
Did you see this before ?
I would like to improve this workaround !
Just keep in mind, me and my team, didn´t discover the root cause yet, so, this automatically datasource restart is a kind of workaround!
Thanks in advance !

Hmm. what was the problem app?
Force a shut down by holding the power button for an extended amount.
Reboot into SafeBoot mode to clear cache files, then reboot as normal.

How to check Server Shutdown and Startup History in SAP

Hi guru's . One of the background job failed on saturday. And i want check the duration and the history when the server shutdown and startup. I can check the server startup time at ST02 t-code. But i want to check the entire history of server shut down. Please guide me through. Thanks.

Dear Ram,
You can see the System logs in SM21 . Background job failure can be viewed in SM37 .
As said before go through \usr\sap\TST\DVEBMGS00\work directory and see the logs. Files like dev_disp , dev_ms ,dev_rfc.trc ,stderr1,stderr2,stderr3,stderr4 will have the log information . These files will have the information after the last system start .
Anyway if want to see the old logs before server shutdown , see the old logs in old files like dev_disp.old,dev_ms.old .

Nibu
