Step 1: Right-click the software icon on desktop and select 'Run as Administrator' from the contextual menu. If the “Create a bootable disk using” option is grayed out, click the “File System” box and select “FAT32”.

Lastly I greatly appreciate the feedback received so far, many thanks all.Activate the “Create a bootable disk using” checkbox, click the button to the right of it, and select your downloaded ISO file. With the cost of Disk Warrior vs a new drive we may just have to bite the bullet and get a new drive.
REPAIRING BOOT DRIVE MAC 10.6.8 HOW TO
Is it worth doing fsck from single user mode (pointers as to how to manage this over SSH appreciated!) first to see if that shows errors at least? I have no problem recommending to management that we look to replace the drive but as it will involve some considerable downtime I'd like to check all avenues if possible. I appreciate the comments that it's not much chop at drive repairs but would it not pick up that the drive needs repair at least? Or is that being too optimistic? So, despite the warnings about the disk being about to fail (which I have taken on board) is it possible that the I/O errors could be in some way file related rather than hardware? If the disk was failing would we not be seeing either constant I/O errors in the logs or at least consistently each day?Īs stated before I ran Disk Utility (Verify disk as repair disk greyed out) and came back clean. Coincidence or is it possible that the I/O errors are a direct correlation to the maintenance script? Note that there were not I/O errors again until morning of Wednesday 13th when a new automated script was reintroduced. Doing this we had no performance hit on the application at all. While trying to rule out the maintenance script as potential cause we moved to manually stopping services, copying DB via commandline and starting services again. We terminated the automatic script as it was taking too long to complete and therefore overrunning the startup time of the application. The times seem to mostly coincide with periods when a maintenance run is copying database files to backup overnight (on same machine). The following sequence of I/O errors shows - I think the dates/times are relevant. First "error" I'd spotted in the log was BSD root: disk0s2, major 14, minor 2 which I've since learned is harmless.
Timing seems to coincide with a database copy during evening maintenance window rather than while "live".ĭoes the error signify imminent disk failure or potentially it could be down to software? I'm fairly new to Mac admin so any pointers on the above would be welcome.Ĭorrection to above - we started having performance issues morning of Monday 28Jul and the first I/O error showed up early hours of the 29th.
The error crops up about 15 times in all over a 2 week period between 1 and 3 instances a day but not every day. I have run disk utility first aid and came up clean. The diskos2 error has me worried this is potential disk failure imminent based on some googling of the error. Problem has been happening for around 2 weeks now but the audit log error only started a few days ago so could be unrelated. Warning: audit space low (< 5% free)on audit log file-system I've spotted a couple of entries in the kernel.log which look somewhat alarming to whit: We have supplier looking into the app side of things but wanted to rule out hardware issues. Been chugging along just fine but recently (last 2 weeks) we've had issues with the apps needing to be restarted each day to avoid performance issues. Hardware specs Intel Core 2 Duo and 8GB RAM. Been having some performance issues with a Mac Mini running a web application (Jboss/Tomcat).
