Have you resolved the issue?
# 11  
Old 06-04-2012
No, I have not solved this issue
There are several people who work on this machine and I need to check with them to see what was done before this started happening.

Seems like you are still having the same issue? I had a problem like that while studying. First I will ask you this:

While in maintenance mode, can you cat or vi into /etc/vfstab file?
We will proceed from there.

I am at home now, the se3rver is at work.

Ok your server can't mount root file system.

You have to boot the OS from cdrom then fix the problem in etcvfstab. You will be able to boot the server but might still go to maintenance mode. Not to worry, all you have to do is restore the service repository from its backup.

So fix the root file system first by booting from cdrom. Bring system ok prompt

Code:
 # init 0 
ok boot cdrom -s 
#fsck /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 
#mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /a
#TERM=sun
#export TERM
#vi /a/etc/vfstab
read this file carefully and fix the root file system entry. Save and quit.
#cd /
#umount /a 
# init 6 .

After this, the server may be fix or it might still come to maintenance mode. If it does, let us know so we can do the next step.

If you system mounts the root drive,
run the command below and follow instructions. Try using the seed repository

Code:
# /lib/svc/bin/restore_repository
