time machine – tmutil associatedisk on macOS Sonoma – quantity mount level and quantity path

I used to be getting the identical outcome.

There appears to be two issues:

1. The -a swap seems assured to journey issues up in Sonoma (as of 14.4.1).
2. Trailing listing slashes on the supplied paths achieve this additionally.

The -a performance might be finished manually. i.e., studying man tmutil for the associatedisk verb it explains that the -a swap, “tells associatedisk to seek out all quantity shops in the identical machine listing that match the id of , after which carry out the affiliation on all of them.”

So too, the trailing slashes might be simply omitted.

To script this up, then, I did the next:

for hd in `discover /Volumes//Backups.backupdb/ -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec echo {} ; -exec sudo tmutil associatedisk /Volumes/ {}/ ;

Which in my case interprets to:

discover /Volumes/LDBackups/Backups.backupdb/LDeck -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec echo {} ; -exec sudo tmutil associatedisk /Volumes/Macintosh HD {}/Macintosh HD ;

The output was:

% discover /Volumes/LDBackups/Backups.backupdb/LDeck -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec echo {} ; -exec sudo tmutil associatedisk /Volumes/Macintosh HD {}/Macintosh HD ;
