corrupted filesystem? /usr or actual users on the box

Since you referenced SAM, I am assuming you have HPUX. Is your problem with /usr or accessing the users on your system?

If it is the /usr filesystem read on. If it is your actual users on the box, that is a totally different problem.

If you have a corrupted filesystem, I would suggest going to single user and peforming an fsck on that unmounted filesystem. Then boot to multi and watch the flags on the filesystem during the boot process to see if the filesystem is "clean" or "dirty".

Also, I would try to restore /usr from a backup before wiping out your OS and reinstalling.

As a last resort, I would reinstall, but that is always my last option.

remote-filesystems(7)					 Miscellaneous Information Manual				     remote-filesystems(7)

NAME
remote-filesystems - event signalling that remote filesystems have been mounted SYNOPSIS
local-filesystems [ENV]... DESCRIPTION
The remote-filesystems event is generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all remote filesystems listed in fstab(5). moun- tall(8) emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with other activity. This event is typically used by services that must be started to manage remote filesystems. When it occurs, local filesystems such as /usr may not be mounted. For most normal services the filesystem(7) event is sufficient. This event will never occur before the virtual-filesystems(7) event. EXAMPLE
A service that wishes to be running once remote filesystems are mounted might use: start on remote-filesystems SEE ALSO
mounting(7) mounted(7) virtual-filesystems(7) local-filesystems(7) all-swaps(7) filesystem(7) mountall 2009-12-21 remote-filesystems(7)
