Solaris 10 svcs failures

upon rebooting the solaris 10 system, all the services went offilne or uninitialised. If I break the SVM mirror and reboot the system with the raw device, all services are up. Once I recreate a fresh mirror(metadevices) and reboot, it goes offline again. Needed to do svcadm clear <service> to bring those services online. This will happen again if a reboot is done. What is the cause and how to fix it?? Smilie

All the basic checks have been done. Nothing wrong. Im well experienced in SVM, so no worries.. I have 10 other machines of the same type and this doesn't happen. Its not really a problem with the svm portion

We are not going to do that for now. We will need to fix this.

DukeNude --> pls worry to solve this. Think you misunderstood my stmt Smilie

Migrating to ZFS would make the problem disappear so would be kind of a fix.
I doubt it can't be something else than an SVM configuration related or mirror corruption issue.
