Slow startup/shutdown on WL

Hi,
We're having a performance issue starting/shutting down weblogic 8.1.1 on Solaris 8 on a Sunfire V240 with 4Gb of memory. it takes an average of 15-20 minutes to start the application using command line start.
Here is some background on the environment:
A. Start with java args :
-Xms1536m -Xmx1536m MaxPermSize=128m NewSize=256m MaxNewSize=256m SurvivorRation=8.
B. There is a cron job that starts/stops then imports at night. The shutdown is also slow, so after 2 minutes of attempted FORCESHUTDOWN, we do a 'kill -9' on the process. My guess is that there is still a transcation that needs to finish ( some are fairly large ), and so FORCESHUTDOWN doesnt complete in 2min.
C. There are multiple applications on the server, but even if we remove one of them ( the second ), startup/shutdown takes the same time to start. The second app depends on the first, so we havent removed the first one
D. There have been some database issues as well, running out of database connections. This is due to Connections not being closed, and we are correcting that issue right now, and is not complete.
E. Most of the time, the logs hang on the last statement below in the logs. However, I don't see any consistency in what follows the BEA-101133 message in the logs.
I apologize in advance for asking more than one item in a post, but I have multiple questions that I believe might be related to the slow startup:
1. Will running 'kill -9' on the process have an impact on the startup of WL, as it is trying to recover or restore connections or resources?
2. Once the database connection issues are cleared up ( working on them now), should startup time increase?
3. Any other suggestions to increase the startup time of WL?

First of all I apologize for the late response, and thank you for the replies.
Here is the WebLogic log file from startup. Note there is a lag of between 10:20 and 11:13. I'm not sure of the cause of this, and any hints or resolutions would be appreciated.
Looks like the slowness is occuring when initializing the web server. Both the Apache web server and Weblogic application server reside on the same machine, so it's not a firewall issue.

  • New MacBook Pro 10.9.4 slow startup shutdown

    I am a new Mac user with no prior Mac experience.  I recently (1 week ago) purchased a MacBook Pro running Mavericks? (10.9.4).  Out of the box the machine was lightening fast with startup and shutdown speeds PC users can only dream of.
    I connected the MacBook to a Windows domain and that went well with no problems.  I installed Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac and configured Outlook to connect to Exchange on the SBS 2008 server.  Again, all went well and the system performed flawlessly.  Then I connected to the server via Go>Connect to Server, so I could access a shared folder on the Windows sbs 2008 and that is when my troubles began.
    Ever since I made that connection to the Windows server via Go>Connect to server my Mac has trouble Starting-Up and Shutting-Down.  Whereas before I made the connection my Mac would boot in under 10 seconds and Shut-Down in around 2 or 3 seconds, it now takes almost a minute to boot and over a minute to shut down.
    The connection to the server was made as follows:
    Go>Connect to Server
    Server address cifs://MyServerName.MyDomain.local (actual names not used in the example but it is a dot local domain) 
    It does not matter if I actually access any of the shared files during any given operation of the machine... it now consistently takes several minutes to Power-Up and then Shut-Down.
    I have two network connections... one wired and one wireless and it does not matter if I use one or the other (or even both).  The problem remains.  It also remains if I take the machine off the LAN and travel to another location... the Start-Up and Shut-Down remain painfully slow (for a Mac anyway). PC users will think I'm knit-picking but I didn't buy a Mac to suffer the same boot shut-down times that PC users have grown to accept.
    If not for the fact that the Start-Up and Shut-Down were so amazingly fast prior to adding the share capability I might not even ask the question but just watching the blazing Startup speed for the few days before adding the sharing has spoiled me. 
    Thanks in advance

  • 10.6.1 Slow Startup and Shutdown

    Did anyone notice the difference between the 10.6.1 startup and shutdown times and the 10.6 times ?
    I had to do a clean install of 10.6 and ignore the 10.6.1 update to get back speed in startup and shutdown.
    Is there anyway to solve this.
    Thanks.

    I had the same problems, and I figured out the cause. It seems that somehow the ownership of my root directory (/) wasn't assigned to the root account anymore, but to myself instead. This made the kernel prelinking fail since it requires that root is the owner. This is how you solve this after launching the Terminal app:
    {quote:title=terminal commands}sudo chown root:admin /
    sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
    sudo kextcache -system-caches{quote}
    You'll have to enter your password after the first command.
    Hope this helps someone, since it was really frustrating to have these slower startup/shutdown times for me.

  • Slow startup and password issue.

    Hi all...
    Happy new year...!
    As a little christmas present for myself I purchased a Crucial M4 256GB SSD for my MacPro 4,1 (2.26GHz, 22GB RAM, 10.8.2). I'm a semi-pro photographer and wanted a bit of a speed up for my processing etc etc. So yesterday I cloned my existing system drive to the SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner. I then installed the SSD in the spare superdrive bay (my other 4 bays are used).
    Just as a background my previous startup/shutdown times on this machine where quite slow averaging around 90s for startup and around 45s for shutdown. I had assumed that this was normal and was just a slow syetm HD issue. When I changed the startup disk to the new SSD and booted up the startup time did decrease but not significantly... its now exactly 59s whilst the shutdown times go down to around 30s. In use the speed of the OS is massively improved with applications and local file copying blazingly fast. I've a few friends who upgraded MacBook Pro's and others macs with SSD's and their startups are around 10-15 seconds....!!! I'm not overly bothered by the slow startups/shutdowns but I am curious as to what might be causing these delays. In testing today I deleted everything unecessary from my user account startup items, disabled various apps and checked the /library/startupitems for anything that shoudnt be there. After a couple of hours trying I cant find anything that is effecting the startups and am lost. I'll likely just accept it and move on as in use the SSD is impressive but if anyone has any ideas it'd be appreciated!
    A second thing that has happened is that whenever I try to delete/modify/move an app I am now asked to type in my user password. I have tried repairing permissions, checking the permissions of my .Trash folder etc etc but as of yet nothing has worked. Any ideas...??
    Many thanks and Happy New Year yet again.

    The traditional way an Operating System deals with "deleted" files is to remove ONLY the Directory information and simply add the data blocks to the free pool. Those "deleted" data blocks are not cleared.
    This works in rotating drives because:
    1. The logical block size is the same or larger than the physical drive block size.
    2. Rotating magnetic media are block-for-block re-writable.
    In SSDs physical blocks are much larger "superblocks", and re-writing a portion of a superblock is a slow and difficult read-modify-write operation. In addition, since the OS did not notify the drive what data are no longer needed, deleted data continue to be carefully maintained and re-written by the drive. Soon every write operation becomes a read-modify-write, and performance deteriorates.
    In my opinion, this nearly-full condition is likley to cause drive failure. Something more than wishful thinking is required.
    Apple enables TRIM on the drives they install directly. They do not do so for third-party drives, but that is likely because those drives have not been tested by Apple.
    I have been using a very small SSD as a boot drive for a while, and periodically consolidate free space followed immediately by erasing free space with a third-party utility. I believe this has kept me out of trouble. My son has been using SSD in his laptop and doing nothing for maintenece, and he has killed two drives in a year.
    Trim Enabler utility from groths seems to be working, and makes things simple. Your mileage may vary.
    if I notice significant performance slips
    You added a much lower latency drive and startup times did not improve significantly. Much of the time required for startup is needed for memory testing. The rest is largely attributable to disk Read/Write times. What more evidence do you need?

  • IMac slow startups but really slow shutdowns.

    Had a problem with slow startups and shutdowns which continued to get worse. Stumbled onto resolution. Shutdowns and startups continued to slow down. Found in Activity Monitor that HP scheduler kept running. computer log showed several "halt" at shutdown. Went into Accounts-Login Tab- Found 3 HP programs which loaded when I had a HP printer driver update. They should have uninstalled after the driver update but continued to run. Deleting the HP files from this tab did not cause any problems with my printer. My iMac is back to its normal "fast" startups and shutdowns. Anyone with a HP printer may want to look here if they are having problems.

    This forum is certainly not the best one to ask about the operating system behavior !
    Would be a good idea to go to :

  • Very slow startup on 2010 iMac

    Hi
    I have a medio 2010 iMac 27" and it's a great computer. Still very fast and plenty of power.
    From one day to another though, it started booting incredibly slow. Not that I'm sure, but I suspect to begin from right around the time I upgraded to Mavericks. The boot doesn't seem to get slow until it hits OSX (desktop view). But from here on it takes forever until I can start opening programs. Sure I can click the icons in the dock, but the program doesn't open til loooooong after. It never results in a crash... it just takes forever. I estimate the time from when I press the power button till I can start using the computer is around 10 minutes!!!
    Then when it's done with the long startup, it works perfectly. No delay or stall what so ever. Just as quick and powerful as ever.
    Of course I have tried many things already:
    unplugging all peripheral devices
    clean up in start-up items
    using CleanMyMac
    rebooting from "start disk" in system settings
    running controll/repair disk permitions and controll/repair disk from disk utilities
    resetting the PRAM (cmd+alt+P+R during boot)
    this solution as well: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/#slideid-23467 1
    None of it seems to help. I have been encouraged to try to have someone look at my system startup log from the console to see if anything can be discovered from there. Can anyone help me with this? Or maybe someone has another idea for a solution?!
    The system startup log goes like this:

    Are you using Boot Camp? If so is your partition NTFS? If so this could be the problem creating a slow startup.

  • BootCamp drivers crash Windows 7, slow startup, boot order?, backup drive

    I have 3 issues that may be related or possibly not related to each other. I use an iMac (currently with Leopard 10.5.8 on a completely clean installation of both Leopard and Windows 7 on a freshly formatted and partitioned drive).
    Issues:
    1. Before reformatting and installing Leopard and Windows 7, I tried to install Snow Leopard and then Snow Leopard Bootcamp drivers into Windows 7. This crashed Windows 7.
    2. Slow startup of Windows 7 - Drivers needed?
    3. Firewire backup drive never re-mounts after using WIndows and then going back to OS X.
    *Details of issues*:
    In the past, before I completely re-installed Leopard 10.5.8 with a new Windows 7, with this same pair of operating systems, I always had a slow startup of Windows 7 on Boot Camp. Sometimes this would take up to 6 minutes to completely open Windows 7. The "Starting Windows" message would appear usually soon, but it would tale a very long time before the Windows logo Flag would appear. The slow startup still continues, even after a complete reinstallation of these on a freshly re-formatted and re-partitioned hard drive (This re-installation was done for reasons shown below).
    For a long while I have thought that because I had never installed any BootCamp drivers into Windows 7, then it might start better if I were to install the BootCamp drivers from an installation disk. Thus when I the other day briefly upgraded to Snow Leopard, this time I went ahead while operating under Windows 7 to install into my already existing Windows 7 the set of Boot Camp drivers from the Snow Leopard installation disk. The installation seemed to go well, but it then hung up and never continued when it tried to install the Intel chipset driver. An an hour had passed with no further progress. Thus I force-shutdown the computer, and Windows then never opened until I restarted under safe mode. After that when I would restart Windows 7 "normally", I found also that the Apple wireless keyboard under BootCamp no longer was recognized. The "normal" slow booting of Windows 7 still remained.
    Because of I was not sure just what all might have been messed up, and because I am waiting for new versions of several programs that I use to be made as versions compatible with Snow Leopard, I reformatted the complete drive (Both partitions were merged into 1), and then I reinstalled Leopard on a freshly prepared drive, followed by newly installing Windows 7 on a new BootCamp partition. Both systems were fresh installs on a freshly prepared drive and partitions. These were not from clones of the previous installations. This time I did not try to install any drivers from the Leopard disk. The slow booting of Windows 7 continues.
    Things I have suspected might cause the slow booting:
    1. Boot order of the Windows partition may be set to look for a CD-ROM before booting from the Windows 7 on the BootCamp Partition. To solve this, I have tried to open the BIOS on startup of Windows 7 in order to set the boot order. I am not sure which function key to press, but in trying several, I have gotten a DOS screen that shows Windows 7 as an option, but nothing else. When I select "Advanced", I get a list that includes "Safe Mode", "Boot Logging", and other items, but not anything for boot order.
    2. The drivers for BootCamp might not yet be made for Windows 7, and I need to wait until these are so that these can be installed. After such, then maybe the slow startup might be fixed?
    3. Possibly my Firewire backup drive interferes (permanently?) with the Windows startup process, because after I use Windows and then go back to OS X, the backup drive (Maxtor OneTouch III firewire drive) will not load on the MacIntosh desktop until I unplug the firewire from both the computer and the Maxtor drive and unplug the power cable to the backup drive, followed by replugging all of this in. (Note: The backup drive is formatted for Macintosh and is never seen as a drive in "My Computer" or in "Network Places" when I operate Windows 7).
    Are you able to help/ Thank you.
    Sincerely,
    Wilson

    Extra comments;
    I also tried the following, which did not fix the startup (*Once up, Windows works well!*):
    1. Checked for file and disk errors (ckdsk?? on startup).
    2. Purged temporary internet and other temporary files (using internet options and disk cleanup utilities)
    3. Cleared out Prefetch files.
    4. Emptied trash.
    5. Under "msconfig", I found 4 items there as startup items. I disabled Adobe Reader and Quicktime helpers, leaving only thus 2 startup items of the 4 enabled (Bulldog and some Microsoft thing).
    6. Defragmented.
    No better results.
    Sincerely,
    Wilson

  • Unbelievable slow startup with OS 10.7 Lion

    The Problem
    Out of curiosity I decided to time the amazing slow startup of Lion after several weeks of use.  It took a full minute from the chime sound until the welcome screen showed with the list of users.  Then, from the time I pressed the return key with my user password until the first app (iChat) was able to open any operational window, it took another full minute and 34 seconds.  If we include the 17 seconds that Lion took to let me click on my user and enter my password (because it doesn't matter how quick you do it, Lion is not going to take it anytime soon), we are talking about nearly three minutes from beginning to the end.
    Clarification # 1
    I'm not loaded with all those login items that tend to slow down the startup to load on the menu bar.  Nothing out of the normal (Dropbox, Evernote, unDock), the ones most seasoned Apple users use.  I have used Macs since 1989 and consider myself an Intermediate knowledge user, so don't tell me some of the things that I already know after 22 years.  I know this is not normal and wonder if everybody else using Lion has conformed to such slowness.
    Clarification # 2
    Another necesary clarification: I DO NOT check the option to "Reopen windows when logging back in".  Depending on the number of open apps or windows you have when shutting down or logging out, that can easily double or triple the startup waiting time!  What an annoying feature!  What was Apple thinking when checking that box by default?  Are they assuming that most of us want to wait more than 3 minutes to have our Mac up and running?  How many users are cursing Apple's engineers names for doing this everytime they shutdown or startup their Macs?
    Clarification # 3
    My hard drive is pretty much in order.  I use Drive Genius to keep my blocks in order with 150Gb (out of 500Gb) available and mostly in one single block to be available for virtual memory and temporary files.  So, hard drive slowness is not the problem.  As you can see, I've done my homework, including repairing permissions, etc.
    Final reflexion
    If Windows 8 is promising to have a 10-second startup (and beta tryouts confirm that it does so), maybe Apple should consider reviewing making me loose roughly over 15 hours every year waiting for my Mac to startup...

    I have the new MacBook Pro with Lion pre-installed. I did a fresh install of CS4 and didn't have any problems with installation. I do fairly basic editing in Photoshop so I tested the following:
    - Opening .jpg and .NEF (raw) files
    - Opening several photos at once
    - Editing a photo in the .NEF interface
    - Creating new layers
    - Flattening layers
    - Adding text
    - Rotating the image
    - Cropping
    - Changing saturation
    - Applying unsharp mask
    - Clone Stamp tool
    - Applying the Liquify filter
    - Selecting a color
    - Using the eye dropper tool
    - Paintbrush tool
    - Burn tool
    - Adjusting levels, curves, brightness, contrast
    - Changing the image size
    - Copying and pasting from one image to another
    - Creating an Action
    - Opening Adobe Bridge and performing a Batch operation using the Action I created
    - Saving as .psd and .jpg
    - Opening the files on another machine to see if the files seemed ok
    I admit that this is not a thorough testing of the software, but I was able to accomplish these basic tasks on several photos I used. The only problem I experienced was when I tried dragging my Background layer onto the New Layer button. This caused the program to freeeze. When I pressed the New Layer button, it was fine. Considering this is about the only functions I ever use in Photoshop, I don't see a reason not to stick with this version. Obviously, I don't know if you would have problems doing more complicated things.

  • Slow startup- new pavilion with windows 8

    Hi there, I have only recently purchased a hp pavilion with the product key being: F5B53EA#ABU
    The first few times I turned it on it was incredibly fast and I was impressed. I have moved my document from my old laptop onto it (not very many, just mainly word documents and pictures) and I have already uninstalled unecessary programmes however the start up is very slow compared to what it was before, I have to leave my laptop for 5-7 mins and then come back to see if it has finally started. Any help would be very appreciated.

    Hello 2010freemana,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand you are having issues with your computer starting up slowly and are looking for assistance in getting it fixed. I have seen issues where certain Windows components are not re-initializing properly if the Fast Startup option is enabled. This is enabled, by default. Perform the following to disable it:
    Step 1. Open Control Panel.
    Step 2. Choose Hardware and Sound / Power Options.
    Step 3. Click on Choose what the power button does on the left side menu.
    Step 4. Click on Change settings that are currently unavailable at the top.
    Step 5. Scroll down and Remove the check mark from the Turn on fast startup (recommended) option under Shutdown settings. Select the Save Changes button and exit Control Panel.
    Step 6. Shut down (Not Restart) the computer, wait a few minutes and then start the computer.
    As well I have seen this issue when people have an Anti-Virus installed with Windows 8. If the issue persists try disabling or uninstalling your Anti-Virus and see if that resolves your slow startup issue.
    I believe this will resolve your slow start up issue in Windows 8. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Why slow startup loading (55 secs)

    Have you had any feedback on LabView 7.0 regarding "slow startup loading" or "slow shutdown"? When I click my icon to start LV 7.0 it takes several seconds (55) to get to the first screen and another 40 seconds to get to the second one. On exiting, the program it normally enters a "not responding" mode. While in the program, it appears to operate normally.

    That should be more than enough. I'm not sure how many others have kept 6.1 on with a LV 7 install (there have been a few smatterings of install issues w/ LV 7, most notably w/ network installs). If I was the one dealing with it, I'd uninstall all Labview programs from all versions and do a clean LV 7 install and see if that fixes it (with the idea being that if it doesn't, I'd do a format c:, reinstall the OS and then LV 7, but I like to minimize variables when dealing with it). If you are working in XP or Win2k, you can monitor how much memory is being allocated to LV 7 and how much is free, just to see if that's an issue (ctrl-alt-del and use the Task Manager).

  • Slower startup with Lion

    After i have updated to Lion the startup takes significantly more time. On my one-week-old iMac 2.5 Quad Core i5 between 30 and 40 secs while it used to startup in about 15 to 20 secs with 10.6.x
    I've doublechecked with the local Apple Store: 30 to 40 secs there too. So this is not a single desk issue.
    This is somewhat frustrating as I recently changed from a MacBook Pro to an iMac for better startup performance. Too soon this gain has been gone! If i had known that Lion would startup significantly slower i might have not updated.
    I wonder if anyone has played with the installation yet. Does it increase startup speed significantly to dump the system - format the hard drive - install 10.6.x - update to 10.7 - and ### this for the difference ### last but not least reinstall applications and restore my content with Time Machine?
    Thank you.

    I thought I'd share my experiments in this thread.
    So, after upgrading from SL to Lion, it became very slow to startup and even slower to shutdown. Reading around the forums I learnt that some older applications, not compatible with Lion, were causing the shut down issues. I cleaned up a bunch of apps (using AppCleaner) and isolated the issue: HP IO Trap Monitor. This is what's causing the shutdown stalls on my system. And if I force this process to be terminated the computer shutsdown almost instantly.
    You can find what causes yours to stall on shutdown by opening Finder and looking for MacintoshHD/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports. Inside this folder you'll find several files, some of them named with DATE.ShutdownSTALL
    Just sort it out by date and check which one is the most recent and start cleaning up.
    I ended up having to remove the HP files from the Library/StartupItems folder. I didn't erased them, I simply moved these files onto my HP Applications folder. I might need them in case I need to print something (not sure though)
    Abou the longer startup time, I finally had the courage to do a clean install.
    So, by parts:
    Right after I installed Lion, my startup time grew longer. After the cleanup I mentioned above, it became better, stil between 50-60 seconds since the boot chime to the login screen.
    With the clean install it came down to 30 seconds. And by clean install I mean creating a bootable Lion USB drive (there's many tutorials on how to do it) booting MB Pro from the USB drive, using the disk utility to erase the MacintoshHD partition and do a fresh install of Lion. NOTE: I did this twice because at first I didn't use the disk utility to erase the partition and it simply installed it over the current install.
    Result: 30 second startup from the chime to login screen.
    Then I used the migration assistant and imported all my Applications from my Time Machine backup. Restarted the computer and startup was still 30 seconds. Was unable to import my user account (and all its files, folders and settings) because the one account I was doing it from had the same name and Lion said I can't replace the one that is already open and told me to create a new one and do it from there.
    I created a new user account, and from the new user account I imported all my documents, settings and Home folders (300GB+), thus replacing the user account by my old one.
    My startup time went back up to 50-60 seconds.
    It seems that this longer startup time is either a consequence of less hard drive space (162GB free at the time) or some problem contained within my personal files and/or extra folders added to my home directory, as the startup time was not changed by the applications I had previously imported.
    What are your thoughts on this? How big are your Home directories? How much free hard drive space do you have?
    And just a detail, the longer startup times have NOTHING to do with the resuming of the applications from the previous session. This only makes it "slower" AFTER you enter your password and login, as you have to wait for everything to start again.

  • Okay I give up - wicked slow startup time

    I've been reading every post I could find related to slow startup times, and trying every conceivable solution others have thought of and that I could think of, and I'm still plagued by a slow startup time!
    Last week it was not a problem. I had just created a 10GB partition and installed Windows XP on it. Things were running smoothly. My startup times weren't like 20 seconds, but they weren't as bad as they are now (a consistent 3.5-4 minutes). Maybe it would take a minute to a minute and a half to start. Then suddenly over the weekend, it started taking 5+ minutes to boot! What could have happened?
    I panicked and erased the Windows partition, backed up to Time Machine (suspecting possible disk failure in my future), and started doing every maintenance thing I know to do (fsck-which returned no errors, permissions repair, reset nv-ram and p-ram, OnyX maintenance scripts). This got it back down to where it is now, a consistent 3.5 minutes. That's still much slower than it should be.
    Below is everything the Console says immediately after booting. Thanks so much for anything anyone can do to help!

    Hello m4294SA,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your computer running Mavericks is running slower than expected. I also realize that you have completed a lot of good troubleshooting already. I would further suggest reading over and completing the steps in the attached article that you have not yet completed.

  • HOWTO: Startup/Shutdown Sounds in Openbox

    In this tutorial, I will show you how to add startup and shutdown sounds with Openbox, a light-weight window manager. In theory, this should work with any window manager that uses a startup script (or, if you use the startx command, .xinitrc could be used for the same effect); however, I will be focusing on Openbox, so you will have to adapt these instructions for use with other window managers.
    We'll start with a quick background story: I was in a "tweaking" mood a few days ago, and I figured I'd try to set up some startup and shutdown noises for use with Openbox. After a few minutes of messing around, I got it working. I searched to see if there were any tutorials like this, and since there weren't, I figured I would share my knowledge--that's what tutorials are for, right?
    NOTE: I originally posted this on ubuntuforums.org; therefore, there may be some differences (I tried to fix most of them). Even though I did this on Arch originally, I wrote it targeted toward Ubuntu users. I didn't get much of a response--there must not have been too many Ubuntu/Openbox users looking for that. Please point out any inconsistencies, and I'll fix them as soon as possible.
    Now that we have that out of the way, let's get started.
    Step 1: Installing the necessary application(s).
    First off, we will be using a commandline program called play. It is part of the sox package, so let's install that first (you likely have most of its dependancies already).
    # pacman -S sox
    If you'd like, you can cd to a directory with music in it and type play name-of-sound-file.extension to test that it is working. If you don't have any files to try it on, you can do this later after downloading your desired sound files in step 3.
    I also have sudo set up; you will need to set this up to run the shutdown commands from a script as I have them. There is a section in the ArchWiki that will help in setting it up if you want. As for the commands with sudo in them, you can just run them in a root terminal.
    In addition to that, I will be working with obmenu, a program for editing Openbox's menu from a GUI; however, it will work just as well to edit the menu by hand. I assume you already have a preferred method of editing your menu, but if you want to try obmenu, it's only a pacman command away:
    # pacman -S obmenu
    Step 2: Setting up shutdown privileges.
    For this section, I will be adapting a section from a great guide written by urukrama here. We're going to be running a shutdown command from a script, so we need to have it set up to work without any interaction--in this case, that means removing the need for a password for the shutdown command.
    To do this, type in the following command into the terminal:
    sudo visudo
    This will open up the sudoers file, which is used to specifiy user permissions for actions that require root priveleges. For those of you unfamiliar with Vim (I'm with you ), just press i on your keyboard to enter interactive mode, which allows you to edit the file. Then, enter the following line at the end of the file:
    %wheel ALL=NOPASSWD:/sbin/shutdown
    Then press escape to exit interactive mode. Lastly, type in :wq followed by pressing enter to save and exit. Now you can use the sudo shutdown command without entering a password.
    Step 3: Getting the desired sound files.
    Now we come to the fun part of the guide--finding the sounds that we want.
    There are plenty of startup and shutdown noises floating around the web; I went to gnome- and kde-look to check out theirs (the same are available at both sites). Here's a link to the System Sounds section at gnome-look. You can look through and download the ones that interest you; once you have listened to a few and found one that you like, go on. Just for reference, I chose the Dream pack. It fits very nicely with my current setup and theme.
    Step 4: Setting up the shutdown/startup scripts.
    If you haven't already (in the last step), extract the sound files from the package that they downloaded in. Then, look through the files and find the startup and shutdown noises. For me, they were titled Dream Intro.ogg and shutdown.ogg, respectively. Move these files into their own folder. I chose ~/.startup--on my Arch install, it was empty. You may want to put it into a different folder/sub-folder, preferably somewhere in your home folder. You can now remove all the other sound files--hypothetically speaking, it probably wouldn't be too hard to get other sounds (such as minimize, maximize, etc., if provided in the sounds package you chose) working with Openbox, but that is beyond the scope of this tutorial. Now, go to the folder in which you placed the startup and shutdown noises. For simplicity's sake, we're going to place the scripts in this same folder.
    We're going to be making two scripts here--one for reboot and one for shutdown. Open up your text editor of choice here and enter the following line (replacing the "/path/to/file.extension" with the path to your shutdown sound):
    play /path/to/file.extension && sudo shutdown -r now
    For me, it looked like this:
    play ~/.startup/shutdown.ogg && sudo shutdown -r now
    What this does is play the sound file specified and, once that is done, moves on to the reboot process (that's what && does). Save this as reboot.sh. Now make a new file, this time for the actual shutdown. It will be the same as the first except the shutdown command will now be sudo shutdown -h now. Here's what mine looks like:
    play ~/.startup/shutdown.ogg && sudo shutdown -h now
    Save that one as shutdown.sh. At this point, we have completed the scripts for both shutdown commands. Next, open up your Openbox autostart script (should be in /home/<user>/.config/openbox/autostart.sh, where <user> is your username) with the text editor of your choice. You probably already have a few different things in here; if not, it doesn't really matter. Just add the following line to your autostart file (as you can see, I used quotes around this one because this file had a space in its name--you'll want to do the same. You can also use a backslash before the space):
    play "/home/<user>/.startup/Dream Intro.ogg"&
    Make sure you keep the ampersand (&) in tact; otherwise, the script will wait until the sound is done playing before completing the rest of the processes. I recommend that you place the sound file at the beginning of the script so that it starts first--the way I have it set up, everything is ready to go by the time the login sound ends (sooner, actually). Now that we've come this far, we're almost done.
    Step 5: Adding the shutdown options to the Openbox menu.
    At this point, the login sound will be working; however, we still need to set up the shutdown sounds. To do this, we will add a section to the Openbox menu that runs the two scripts we made in the last step.
    Either open up obmenu or use your preferred text editor and open up menu.xml (should be in ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml). As I said, we will be adding two items: one for rebooting and another for shutting down. In obmenu, you can add a new submenu wherever you want (I chose the bottom of the menu) and name it Power (or whatever else you'd like). The first we'll add is named Restart. For the execute line, add the following:
    bash /path/to/reboot.sh
    For me, this path is ~/.startup/reboot.sh. As for the second, name it Shut Down and for the execute command put the following:
    bash /path/to/shutdown.sh
    Again, for me this is ~/.startup/shutdown.sh. Here is what the section in my obmenu looks like:
    As for the pure XML, here it is (I replaced my name with <user> ):
    <item label="Restart">
    <action name="Execute">
    <execute>bash /home/<user>/.startup/reboot.sh</execute>
    </action>
    </item>
    <item label="Shut Down">
    <action name="Execute">
    <execute>bash /home/<user>/.startup/shutdown.sh</execute>
    </action>
    </item>
    With obmenu, just save it, and your menu will be refreshed. When hand-editing the menu.xml file, you have to remember to Reconfigure Openbox (it will be in your menu unless you've removed it).
    And with that, you should have working startup and shutdown sounds. You can test it by right clicking on your desktop and selecting one of your new shutdown options. You should have a sound play followed by the normal shutdown routine. Then when your computer starts back up, you will have a pleasant noise after logging on.
    I hope that helped you! Please point out any errors that you see, and I'll correct them as soon as possible.

    Nice tutorial. I was wondering, I noticed you have a games tab. Do you know how to properly execute games. I am trying to get steam games working also Call of duty 4 as tabs under obmenu. Could you help me out?
    Thanks!

  • Slow startup Lion 10.7.3

    I've read many threads, here and on other sites, that deal with slow startups. Most of the "answers" seem to be regarding login items, restored windows/apps, etc. But nothing that matches my sequence of startup issues. (If I've missed an answer somewhere, please forgive me...it's difficult to read everything on the internet)
    When I power on, the chime sounds within a couple of seconds (normal). But then I get a blank white screen that can last anywhere from 45 seconds to 2 minutes. Eventually, I get the Apple logo and spinny gizmo. Once those appear, startup takes about 10 seconds. I restore no windows or apps and have no login items. Does anyone have some idea for what causes the long delay before the logo appears?
    My Mac is a Mid 2011, 21-inch iMac (bought new 12/2011), 2.8 GHz i7 running 10.7.3, 12 GB mem; 256 SSD main drive has 133 G free, second drive is a 1 T with 872 G free.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Hi ds   
    I tried most of the items in the list you referred me to. Nothing found any problems (except the SMART utility errors mentioned earlier).
    Main items:
    - booted from install drive and did all repairs and permission fixes (no problems)
    - reset PRAM
    - the "D" key Apple diagostics (no problems found)
    The only thing I did not do was reinstall the OS. It seems to me the delay happens before Lion is loaded. Once loaded, it runs fantastic. It's just that pesky pause before the actual OS loads. I really hope it's not a (partially?) bad SSD.
    Thanks for helping.
    Michael
