From: Nick Naym on 27 Oct 2009 23:14 Anyone know where I can find a list of them? I wanted to view a graph of my TM drive directory (I had DW graph it a few weeks ago, and was curious if it changed much), but halfway through I got a DW dialog (it has the DW badge embedded in it) stating the drive couldn't be graphed because "an unexpected error occurred," and it referred to "error code (2403, -50)." -- iMac (24", 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM, 320 GB HDD) � OS X (10.5.8)

Have you upgraded to DiskWarrior 4.2? 4.1 will crash or fail on Time Machine volumes. 4.1.1 removes features that crash but misdiagnoses latency on a remote TM disk image as failing media. I haven't tried 4.2 but Alsoft says it's needed for reliable operation in 10.6. -- I won't see Goolge Groups replies because I must filter them as spam

I use DW mostly to check the state of the directory prior to and after running TTP on my internal drive (or my external clone drive). However, I've never had occasion to use either TTP or DW to actually "repair" my TM volume. Thanks for the info, though...it's good to know.

No idea what the errors codes are. Check what it's logging to the console. I tried DW 4.2. Rebuilding a directory is the only remaining feature for TM disk images. It still stupidly believes that latency is I/O errors. You should definitely stop using 4.1.0.
