Starting up in Network startup

Can anyone explain to me exactly how network startup works and how to do it. when I clicked on it and clicked restart it didn't do anything. So I highlighted network startup and clicked the lock to prevention of further changes and restarted from the apple menu thinking it would start in network mode since the option was locked in but still nothing. can anyone help?
24'' iMac - 15'' MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) (iPhone in JUNE!!!)

When the computer's startup disk is set to start up from a disk on the network, it will attempt to connect to a Mac OS X Server or other system which has an available NetBoot image. If you change the startup disk and then close the padlock immediately, System Preferences may not be able to properly write the setting; you need to go to another pane, or the main screen, or quit System Preferences to save the changes first if you will be closing the padlock.

My iMac tries to connect to old network startup

Greetings,
When I start up, I receive a message that my computer is trying to connect to the my old iMac, the one that I used with Migration Assistant to transfer files and such. That computer is no longer around, but the new one always searches for it.
I have looked in Startup items, Airport preferences, recent servers in the Connect to Server part of the Finder, and found that there is an icon for "Network Startup" with a ? that I assume is the culprit. However, there is no obvious way to delete or cancel this.
I checked the following discussion threads for answers:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13272616#13272616
https://discussions.apple.com/message/5317530#5317530
There were many useful suggestions, but so far no luck. There might be more out there, but I have been looking for a while now.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ken

Look in System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options > See if there is a Network Account Server defined. If so, remove.
Sounds like it's looking for a remote boot option.

Network Startup - how do i escape this

Hi,
My wife set my computer into "Network Startup" mode. You know using the Startup Disk control panel. Now my computer sits at startup waiting and displaying a globe.
How do i get out of this mode?

Hi threebean,
First, when you post for assistance could you please indicate which Mac you have and which Mac OS you are running.
Shut down your computer by holding down the Power Button for about 5 seconds, til you see a black screen. Now, grab your system restore disk. Now, press the Power Button, hold down the C key and insert the system disk all at the same time. Keep holding down the C key until you see the Apple logo.. An Installer window will open. Go to the top of the Menu and click Utilities/Startup Manager... don't freak, you are doing this from the system restore disk, not the internal disk, so when the Startup Manager window opens, it should populate your start up volumes. Click the one that says: MacintosHD 10.x.x (You won't see x's.. you'll see the Mac OS version. Now, click Restart... that will Restart your Mac from the internal drive.

Wicd works, network startup scripts don't

Title tells the story. Using wicd-1.7 I can connect to wireless networks and the connection remains stable. Using various combinations of rc.conf settings, netcfg, /etc/conf.d/wireless getting a connection is impossible at boot time and problematic after boot. The problem occurs on every system I've tested arch on. Wicd works, network startup scripts don't or only occasionally if some magic spell is properly cast. I'm positive I've configured the settings in rc.conf correctly as I've been able to connect using those by some combination of rmmod WLAN_MODULE, modprobe WLAN_MODULE, /etc/rc.d/network restart or netcfg ESSID. The requirement is that I am willing to go through the sequence multiple times.
I have just started testing arch and don't know if the network scripts worked before, but I assume they must have. Were there changes in the network startup scripts recently? I'm seeing many topics in the forums related to wireless problems.

When I say that netcfg ESSID works after startup, I mean that it works sometimes and that net-auto-wireless failed along with all other options that had the wireless start during boot. I'm not sure which version I tried but this was a new install in December or January and I was ready to remove arch by the end of February. A new version of wicd was released with some bug fixes that kept arch on the systems. Had that failed this laptop would likely have a BSD on it. Probably OpenBSD as I haven't tested that yet.
My current settings are configured for wicd and not causing any significant issues, other than having to reload the wireless driver when resuming from suspend.

Network startup fails every time since 6/9 update [SOLVED]

I use the netctl method to start the network on my various machines (with static IP addresses) and since doing full system upgrades on 6/9, which included an update to systemd, the network fails to start on bootup, every time. I have to start the network manually after logging in.
I just read a post about a similar systemd-related problem (involving a new service) from which I quote: "yet another bunch of races to accompany the ones that have pestered the arch-linux bootup since that festering pile of race-ridden cs-student pipedream called systemd has been adopted into it."
Race conditions in network startup have been troublesome for me since systemd appeared. It's been quite some time now and the problems keep appearing. Much as I like Arch, I may have to abandon it, because this kind of basic unreliability is not acceptable.

Well, I did some more work on this, and I have a bit of egg on my face, with an excuse. You can decide for yourself whether you think it's a good one.
I run multiple machines that I use for different circumstances, e.g., travel. I rsync my home directory when moving from one machine to another. They are all set up identically, with Arch. To avoid confusion about which machine has the latest changes in my home directory, the scripts I use for rsync-ing and my .bash_profile send emails to my gmail address, so I have an audit trail of what I have done. In the past, I *have* experienced systemd troubles (and know that because the network didn't come up reliably and there was discussion by others on this forum of problems similar to mine, with patches for the systemd scripts) and the first symptom I saw was the inability of my .bash_profile to send my 'I just logged in on system X' email. Since the system update yesterday, I have been seeing this symptom. My mistake was assuming, instead of verifying, that the network had not come up, and just starting the network manually with netctl (there was no error message from netctl that I was starting an already-started network profile). My confusion was abetted by the fact that there was a systemd update yesterday, according to pacman. But, in fact, when I realized I was making an unwarranted assumption and actually checked, I found that the network had come up and I now believe this is not a systemd issue.
I think the issue is with mailx (mail), which also got updated yesterday. The mail I send requires authentication by the smtp server I'm using, and my scripts provide that, using the smtp-auth-* options to mail. This worked until yesterday. Looking at the mail man page, it appears that mail configuration and these options are about to change with version 15. The current version is 14.7 and purports to support both the old and new-style configuration and options. To turn on the new style, you supposedly invoke an option, -v15-compat, which is off by default. The options I'm using are not v15 compatible, but should work, since I have not provided the option to turn on v15 support. But it appears they do not.
I will mark this thread SOLVED, since my original diagnosis was wrong.

This question is not related to the HANA developer center sandboxes - no user can stop/start these systems...
If the issue happened after a failed restore, your database is probably corrupted and cannot be started. Try to restore another backup. You can also try to restore the same backup again, and choose to not replay the log (recover from data files only). You will probably loose some changes, but at least have a consistent state...

Startup Disk - only Network Startup available

Hello,
I've got a problem with startup. I have two partitions on my internal hard drive - HFS+ for Mac OS X Leopard and NTFS for Windows XP. I wanted to check the setting of startup disk but in the Startup Disk pane in System Preferences there is nothing but Network Startup. I can boot to Mac or Windows but I always have to wait like a minute while it tryes to connect or something. Do you know how to solve this issue?
Thanks

For starters, deselect the network boot option so it does not spend time searching.
Holding down the Option key as noted by another poster is one way to select your OS.
Another option is to install rEFIt, a BSD boot selector program.
http://refit.sourceforge.net/
I am presuming you did not use BootCamp to install your Windows program, which might account for the missing boot manager that BC provides.

I downloaded Safari for Windows Public Beta Seed 31A15 from the Apple Developer Connection (http://developer.apple.com) and it fixed my problem crashing on startup. I'm running Windows XP Pro but it may work for you on Vista.
You have to setup an account or use your existing Apple ID to log in to the Developer Connection.

Applescript to start a private network

Hi all,
I'm just wondering if an applescript could be able to create setup and start a private network.
Thanks!

I just need to simulate the "create network" in "System Preferences>Network>Network Name".
Then just press create!
Then you might want to try this:
tell application "System Preferences"
    activate
    reveal pane id "com.apple.preference.network"
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "System Preferences"
        delay 0.1
        click pop up button "Network Name:" of group 1 of window "Network"
        delay 0.1
        key code 121 -- to select the last menu item
        keystroke return
        delay 0.1
        keystroke return
    end tell
end tell
The three “delay 0.1” statements are just for caution and might possibly be removed.

How do I sound an alarm if a thread fails to start from the weblogic startup script?

Here's the problem. I have a critical java program for my web app that
is its own thread and is started by the weblogic startup script when
the weblogic server is started. The constructor of this thread will
throw exceptions and send out emergency emails to the Sys Ops people
if it cant instantiate itself correctly. The only time that it wont be
able to do that is if it cant read the email property from a config
file to know where to send sys ops email to. In that situation what
would be the best way to alert someone that the thread failed to
start?

1) Post a console message to the admin (thro' net send in NT).
2) Hard code a default email address (easiest).

Starting agent after VM startup

The new JDK 6 instrumentation API mentions the possiblity for "Starting Agents After VM Startup".
Unfortunately it isn't very specific: "The system class loader [..] must support a mechanism to add an agent JAR file to the system class path."
Can anybody provide me with a working example of how to bootstrap an agent from within the VM after it has started? Is it possible to load the agent directly and not from a jar file in the filesystem?
Thanks,
-dennis

Chris has an example in his blog:
http://blogs.sun.com/chegar/entry/diagnosing_deleteonexit_issues
Another example is http://blogs.sun.com/alanb/resource/MemViewer.java which bootstraps the management agent into a running VM.
Java agents must be deployed as a JAR file on the file system.

Remove the network startup

I juz found out there is a "network startup" on my system preference/startup disk, there was only one hard drive before, and i dunno why there is one there now....how can i remove it, or why is it there?

It's there for everyone, and is completely normal. It allows you to boot from a system on the network, rather than from the internal hard drive.

Can't start ... tried a bunch of things ... what about network startup??

Greetings and salutations all you helpful folks,
I am battling away trying to get my ibook G4 to start.
I have mounted it as a terminal and it works fine as that, and I have retrieved all the data that I need from the hard drive but now I would like to fix it and use it again.
So, I have tried running disk utility but it says that there is nothing wrong and the volume checks.
I have tried putting G4 OSX install disk in but it won't boot from the CD with the "C" held down.
I then have to use open firmware to eject the CD to try the next thing, whatever that might be ...
but when the computer is in terminal mode I can get it to read the cd in the drive just fine, but when it boots on it's own it just doesn't seem to want to do it. It does spin the disk and seem to read it but then I get a message that says that I need to restart my computer and so I do and nothing better happens.
So, on a whim I tried my G5 disks from my iSight. I don't know why, I'm just desperate. And it told me it couldn't install that software and would I like to restart from the network or the harddrive.
and this started some questions in my head.
This G4 is on a network with a G5. What does "network start up" mean? Can I convince this little laptop to use the G5 as it's startup disk? Would that work? Could that work?
Next question, I seem to have to problems starting up into Open Firmware/ Is there something I can do in that mode that might check out my drive and or repair it and/or get it to boot from the CD?
I really need this little laptop on my system. It is used by other folks for simple things like internet and mail and ordering and now that it is down they are fighting for my machine ... aargh!!
help? any help is reallly needed now. HOw can these drives be dead or non functioning when I can read them and spin them from another computer? I feel like this is just a software problem and I should be able to get by it ... but it has me stumped. not hard considering how much of a computer non-techno geek that I am. Just a user am I. And a frustrated one at that!!

wait wait I made a typo
I said it seems to have problems starting in open firmware ... but what I meant was
I seem to have NO problems starting up in open firmware ...
sorry

What am I doing wrong, and/or what can I do to fix this?

Maybe I got something wrong here but didn't sspitfire write that dhcpcd only works when starting it manually after it failed at startup? What exactly is "noip4all" supposed to do, I'm asking because it didn't work for me. I tried "noip4ll" like written in dhcpcds manpage without any effort . "noarp" and "waitip" also had no positive effect. Maybe I leave dhcpcd in the rc.local even if it's a bit of a dirty solution. ("noarp" and "waitip" I gathered from the dhcpcd manpage).

Start scanning watchfolder after startup on network render machine?

Hi,
i am setting up a small render farm of a couple of mac minis having only AErender installed.
Is there a way, maybe an startupscript that automatically scans my watchfolder after the AErender started up? At the moment i have to go into the render machine and select the watchfolder each time after startup.I would like to have the render clients run without monitors,keyboards, mouses connected and not having to access them via screen sharing each time i want to render. I couldnt find that specific information anywhere, so any insight on this will be highly appreciated!!
Thanks a lot!

....i found a workaround with applescript myself... sometimes i`s great not giving up too soon:-))
maybe there is a more elegant way.. but this works.
compiled as app and used as login item.
AE render seems to remember the last watch folder selected, so i didn`t have to set the path.
might look quirky to a pro, i`m just happy it works,i`m not a programmer and just collected and tried snippets of code until it worked.
