Consult with Lloyd to design a storage and/or backup system and/or high performance workflow.
See previous notes on IntegrityChecker 3.0fc20.
IntegrityChecker Java (icj) supports Mac, Windows, Linux, etc—anything with Java, an unrivalled cross-platform data integrity solution.
No photographer or videographer or other professional should be operating without data integrity validation. Whether bit rot or malware or software bugs or hardware problems, can you afford to remain unaware of data corruption, or to not know if your backups are intact and undamaged?
icj version 3.0fc23 (version 3.0, final candiate 20)
As before, tested and working on macOS Ventura. Download page for existing customers.
A new utility 'jattr' is now included, a more useful/powerful tool than Apple’s xattr command, and runs on both macOS and Linux.
- 3.0fc23
2023-04-04 Fixed bug where prefs files were being ignored for the various flags, introduced around fc18.
2023-04-04 File status messages are now aligned visually with mixed-length tag like RENAMED vs MOVED*
2023-04-04 SYSTEM_SLEEP advisory rejiggered to SYSTEM_UNRESPONSIVE with exact times and the exact unexpected delay. - 3.0fc20
2023-03-30 All outstanding issues with normalized file paths now resolved. No more missing files if normalization varies, no warnings should appear, cross compatibility across JDK20 vs earlier JDKs as well as APFS/HFS, and in all combinations thereof. The changes should apply across operating system foibles as well. - 2023-03-30 It is recommended that all macOS users move to JDK20 by running the java installer. That’s because JDK20 is the first version to not forcibly normalize file paths to NDF, a behavior that could cause issues across file system. With JDK20, file paths that icj sees are normalized the same as in the native file system.
