FAILURES TO DATE

So much is working well that it is a lot easier to note the failures I have encountered. Once again this is an early beta and much of what is not working now will be fixed sooner or later.
  • Time Machine backups from an APFS (encrypted) drive — I don't know about non encrypted
  • Bootable CCC clones TO an APFS volume — encrypted or otherwise— they clone but are not bootable.
  • SoftRAID — reliable kernel panic. (Still working on this)
  • CleanApp 5.1.2 — hangs reliably
  • TechTool Pro 9.5.1 — Hardware tests run normally but confusing reports of volumes on APFS formatted drives. Almost all volume analysis and repair features greyed out and unavailable.
  • Drive Genius 5.0.1 — Correctly identifies the boot volume as formatted AppleAPFSMedia, but also shows an overlapping volume diskos3, on the same drive but all the repair and rebuild functions are greyed out. The volumes on the HD data drive are correctly identified but like the boot drive, most of the functionality is greyed out on the APFS volume.
  • OnyX refuses to open and exits cleanly no HIgh Sierra version available yet
  • Tinkertool and Tinkertool System needed to be updated but are working
Actually not bad for an early beta.

If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
