Hello,
Apologies for the delay in my reply. As a starting point. You could add the
following to the script so that you have additional information being logged.
Once you have this additional information please post it hear as it may
provide a clue as to why the external drive is not ejecting.
#!/bin/bash
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
diskutil eject /Volumes/UNTITLED 2>&1 | \
sed "s/^/`date` : /" | tee -a /tmp/test.log
echo "return code ${PIPESTATUS[0]}" | \
sed "s/^/`date` : /" | tee -a /tmp/test.log
echo "-----------------------------" | tee -a /tmp/test.log
exit 0
You should be able to collect your log at /tmp/test.log
As mentioned this file may shed some light on what is happening.
Thanks.
