Verbose mode

-
A verbose mode is an option available in many computer operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, macOS and Linux that provides additional details as to what the computer is doing and what drivers and software it is loading during startup. This level of detail can be very helpful for troubleshooting problems with hardware or software, if errors are occurring during startup or after the operating system has loaded. Below is an example of verbose output in a Windows command line screen.

 There are several ways to enable Verbose Mode. During startup, the screen may display which key(s) to press on the keyboard to enable Verbose Mode. Typically users would press the escape (Esc) key for Linux, Ctrl+V keys for Microsoft Windows, and Command-V keys for macOS.

If you try to restore from a network-based Time Machine backup, not all settings will be restored correctly. If service data is on the startup volume, or only the startup volume is being restored Make sure the Time Machine backup drive is connected. Start up your server using  macOS Recovery . You can use an internal Recovery HD, Internet Recovery, an external  Recovery Drive , or the  Recovery partition of your Time Machine backup .

While Identity Finder is distributed from the IdentityFinder.com website as a dmg, modification to the dmg or application bundle contained therein is not supported.  Any organization using the Mac client must create and deploy a custom Installer Package that can include a custom xml file, license file, and other supplementary files as well as configure the endpoint service application. The only supported method for creating a custom Installer Package is to use the Identity Finder Client Custom PKG Builder (PKGBuilder) application referenced by and attached to this article.  This application uses pkgbuild, productbuild, and productsign, which are all included with Mac OS.
