I use Onyx to run maintenance from time to time. It always asks to check S.M.A.R.T status when first starting up the software. For the first time I ran into this message today:
error detected -9972 while verifying/repairing volume disk0s5 iMac
I have searched everywhere for some info on that with no luck. I repaired permissions using disk utility.. everything looked clean.. nothing to repair. I restarted the computer, and upon starting up Onyx again I received the same message. I'm seeking help in finding out what this error message -9972 means.
