I have a macbook air 1.4 Core i5 with macOS sierra.
It hangs every time I shut it down. Thus, I cannot update it to high sierra.
Using command+v I was able to screenshot the printout during the shutdown sequence.
Failed to send exception EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY. error code: 5 for pid 97 Process mds_stores [210] disabling system-wide I/O Throttling Process mds_stores [210] disabling system-wide CPU Throttling AppleActuatorDeviceUserClient::stop Entered IO88211Inferface::updateReport _peerManager is missing awdl0: promiscuous mode disable succeeded
Then no more progress. (see screenshot)
Edit:
After some Googling, I read that peerManager is connected to the wifi. Thus, I disabled the wifi before shutdown. The peerManager error went away but the system still hung. It displayed no printout. See image:
Hangs on this.
As additional information, the problem has been occurring for over 3 years and survived multiple major OS updates.
