We basically installed a temporary Solaris O/S then copied the dumps over and restored them.
In addition to other posters requests for Solaris Operating System versions and hardware specification, what exactly did you type for the "ufsdump" and what exactly did you type for the "ufsrestore" ?

In my experience you need to be selective on the restore and to not overwrite anything hardware-specific or Operating System specific.

1) Clean install the Operating System and licences and install Operating System patches.
2) Install and configure the RSC software and test it thoroughly.
3) Rebuild the kernel to equivalency with the source computer.
4) Install and configure any other software. Re-licence software if licenced to the machine ID.
5) Finally restore the data (only) from the backup media (presumably a tape).

DESCRIPTION
