In your mkitab line you specify "start_server:2: once:...". Therefore it will not wait on it, but rather spawn a shell and execute /scripts/startserver.sh within that shell. If you want inittab to wait for this script to finish before moving to the next line in inittab you should change "once" to "wait".

volinstall
volinstall(8) System Manager's Manual volinstall(8)
NAME
volinstall - Sets up Logical Storage Manager (LSM) environment after LSM installation
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/volinstall
DESCRIPTION
The volinstall script sets up LSM special device files, and add the following lines to the /etc/inittab file:
lsmr:s:sysinit:/sbin/lsmbstartup -b </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1 lsm:23:wait:/sbin/lsmbstartup -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1
vol:23:wait:/sbin/volreconfig -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1
The first line calls the /sbin/lsmbstartup script, which enables LSM to start automatically on system reboot. The second line calls the
/sbin/volreconfig script, which handles any pending encapsulation requests.
If /sbin/lsmbstartup is not added to the /etc/inittab file, LSM must be started manually after system reboot.
Note
The volinstall script is automatically invoked by the volsetup, clu_create, and clu_add_member commands. Therefore, running the volinstall
script to set up LSM is usually not necessary.
