macadamia Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 I have a script backing up a set of network-mounted shares to a local firewire drive. The script has stalled whilst scanning one of the shares and now cannot be stopped. I am also unable to stop the Retrospect engine nor can I unmount the share. I've already had to completely reinstall Retrospect once...how can I avoid doing it again? I really don't want to have to reboot as I think that's what messed up Retrospect last time. Running the latest Retrospect (626?) and 10.5.8 server on a G5. Thanks, Joel. p.s. Can we have a user guide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maser Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 If you "stop" the Retrospect engine from the System Preference -- it can take up to 10 minutes to actually *stop* if the engine is doing something. Let it do this rather than force reboot your computer -- otherwise, you might corrupt your disk containing your "members" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giobbi Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I can confirm that it mostly likely will corrupt mediasets or members if you reboot or "kill" the process. I know.. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
