The Volume can't be used & will be ejected because it is no longer avail...

Fresh Mac Mini Server, all updates, humming along beautifully.
Every day or two, all my AFP users get kicked off our one share point (located on an external FW800 RAID array) with this error:
"The Volume "Work" can not be used and will be ejected because it is no longer available"
Future attempts to connect fail until I restart AFP. I've got this excerpt in the AFP access.log:

I have no idea what ldap_bk is. That must be some internal share for backing up Open Directory automatically? It seems that whenever it happens, all my users get kicked off immediately, there's some remounting of all my drives, but AFP never recovers. Where is that job managed? Anyone know which launchd.plist? Is this even the problem? Any other ideas?

I definitely think it's related to some automated backup that I'm not aware of. I found this directory:
bash-3.2# ls -al /var/log/server_backup/
total 904
drwxrwx--- 7 root wheel 238 Apr 30 15:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 159 root wheel 5406 May 18 13:32 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 216848 May 18 13:13 iChatServer_backup.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 230502 May 18 13:13 mailServer_backup.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Apr 30 15:31 mailServer_restore.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3519 May 18 13:13 openDirectory_backup.log
-rwxr-x--- 1 root wheel 7625 May 18 13:13 server_progress.log
13:13 is exactly when everyone got booted off and coincides with the entries in AppleFileServiceAccess.log. What is firing off this backup process? I've got no third party tools in place that would be doing this.

  • Error message: "The media can't be used because you don't have access privileges, or because it has no content or is corrupt."

    I get the error message "The media can’t be used because you don’t have access privileges, or because it has no content or is corrupt." when I drag photos (or copy and paste photos) from iPhoto to Pages/Word.
    It never used to do this and is really quite annoying, as I now have to find the file through finder to drag from there.
    I had to rebuild the iPhoto library a few days ago, is it something to do with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, 
    navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Alert: WebServices connectivity (Internal) transaction failure - The credentials can't be used to test Web Services.

    Hi.
    Could you please help me to resolve this issue.
    I have SCOM 2012 installed to monitor environment with Exchnage 2010 SP3. There are 2 sites with Exchnage servers within the organization. There are 2 mailboxes being created to test both sites.
    I am getting following alert:
    Alert: WebServices connectivity (Internal) transaction failure - The credentials can't be used to test Web Services.
    description: The test mailbox was not initialized. Run new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to ensure that the test mailbox is created.
    Detailed information: 
    [Microsoft.Exchange.Monitoring.CasHealthUserNotFoundException]: The user wasn't found in Active Directory. UserPrincipalName: extest*****@****.local. Additional error information: [System.Security.SecurityException]:

    Diagnostic command: "Test-WebServicesConnectivity -MonitoringContext:$true -TrustAnySSLCertificate:$true -LightMode:$true"
    EventSourceName: MSExchange Monitoring WebServicesConnectivity Internal
    I have tried the next steps:
    1. Verified that mailbox is exist and it's not locked (same for the second mailbox)
    2. Deleted those mailboxes and created  a new  using new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1  verified that this mailbox is visible on all DC's accross the forest (both mailboxes)
    and that temporary password was accepted;
    3. Cleared the cache on the SCOM 2012;
    4. Still getting the same alert
    I will really appriciate any help.
    Thanks.

  • An unrecognized HTTP response was received when attempting to crawl this item. Verify whether the item can be accessed using your browser.

    I have 2 WFE behing F5 that handles ssl termination too. I have a site abc.xyz.com.
    At aam i have
    http://abc.xyz.com in default zone and https://abc.xyz.com in internal zone.
    AT sharepoint content source; I have both http and https of the above site version.
    DNS entry of abc.xyz.com is pointing at VIP in f5 which load balances this site at 2 different ips assigned to each web front end server.
    Now when i run search in this content source, searchable item populates but there is error for http request telling An unrecognized HTTP response was received when attempting to crawl this item. Verify whether the item can be accessed using your browser.
    Why is this happening?
    Is it because requests are coming to f5 as https but search is returning it as http? Will SSL termination removal from f5 solve this issue which i really don't want to do? Will pointing dns entry to two ips in wfe instead of f5 VIP will work?

    Hi,
    I have seen a similar post from you, my understanding is that when you ran search in your content source, there was an error. You can take a look at the following thread:

  • HT3275 I get the message that backup failed because the volume is already in use.  Any ideas?

    My Time Machine for my iMac has suddenly developed a problem: on repeated attempts to do a backup, it returns the message that the backup failed because the volume is already in use.  The solution to the problem may well be simple and obvious, but it'll be a revelation to me and any help will be gratelfully received.

  • HT1711 When I try to play a song on I-Tunes I receive the Message "The Song can not be used because original can not be found" Can anyone out there help me with this?

    When I try to play a song on I-Tunes, I receive the Message "The song can not be used because the original can not be found.  Can anyone out there help me  with this problem?

    The iTunes application saves your iTunes Store purchases--as well as any music, audiobooks, or videos you import--to your computer's hard disk, not the iTunes application itself.
    The error message you note indicates that the purchase in question can’t be located where it is stored in your iTunes Music folder in order to play it, and may have been moved or deleted.
    You will need to help iTunes locate the file. Follow the steps in this article:

  • Restore from back-up now "The media can't be used because you don't have access privileges...."

    My wife bought a new MBA and restored from back-up. Now when she tries to drag a photo from iPhoto into a Pages document, she get's the error "The media can't be used because you don't have access privileges, or because it has no content or is corrupt". Interestingly, there is no problem dragging the photo into the finder.

    What versoin of iPhoto and system are you running - 9.4.3 and 10.8 4?  How did you restore from the backup? Are you able to view the photos when you double click on them in iPhoto?  If not what do you see?
    If I've guessed the versions correctly Apply the following fix to your library:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Options #1 to repair permissions and #4 to rebuild the database.

    Try resetting the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple Logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider if it shows up. You will lose no data.
