I have two solaris boxes, and both of them having some problem while rebooting. Only changes were done before rebooting was creation of four new filesystem's u01 - u04.
Problem on 1) - I noticed that when the box was rebooting, it was complaining about the U01->U04 mounts (i.e. fsck probs) - so I disabled these via vsftab and rebooted...When the problems were occurring, the server was not rebooting properly and starting up in maintenance mode. How do I fix it?
Problem on 2) - is reporting a Bad PBR Sig at the GRUB bootloader process... this is a pretty basic stage to die at.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

Hi,
I have a task of creating a UFS filesystem in an LDOM. It is located in a hypervisor (CDOM).
The storage has been provisioned to the CDOM. How do I make it reflect to the LDOM, and then from there configure/set up the filesystem in the LDOM?
Please help. (1 Reply)

reboot
reboot(3C) Standard C Library Functions reboot(3C)
NAME
reboot - reboot system or halt processor
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/reboot.h>
int reboot(int howto, char *bootargs);
DESCRIPTION
The reboot() function reboots the system. The howto argument specifies the behavior of the system while rebooting and is a mask con-
structed by a bitwise-inclusive-OR of flags from the following list:
RB_AUTOBOOT The machine is rebooted from the root filesystem on the default boot device. This is the default behavior. See boot(1M) and
kernel(1M).
RB_HALT The processor is simply halted; no reboot takes place. This option should be used with caution.
RB_ASKNAME Interpreted by the bootstrap program and kernel, causing the user to be asked for pathnames during the bootstrap.
RB_DUMP The system is forced to panic immediately without any further processing and a crash dump is written to the dump device (see
dumpadm(1M)) before rebooting.
Any other howto argument causes the kernel file to boot.
The interpretation of the bootargs argument is platform-dependent.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, reboot() never returns. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The reboot() function will fail if:
EPERM The {PRIV_SYS_CONFIG} privilege is not asserted in the effective set of the calling process.
