如何檢測時間機器？

Question

我需要區分用於時間機器的硬盤分區和其他普通分區。 是否有API來檢測時間機器分區/卷？

Answer 1

只要你在Lion或以上，Apple爲時間機器添加了一個名爲tmutil的命令行工具。根據手冊頁，運行tmutil destinationinfo返回以下信息：

Name   The volume label as shown in Finder. 
Kind   Whether the destination is locally attached storage or a network device. 
URL   In the case of a network destination, the URL used for Time Machine 
       configuration. 
Mount Point If the volume is currently mounted, the path in the file system at which 
       it was mounted. 
ID   The unique identifier for the destination. 

When the -X option is provided, output will be printed in XML property list format.
