IBM Repairing File Systems with fsck in AIX (LED 517 or 518) - United States
Says you are basically screwed...
Quote:
If you followed all of the preceding steps and the system still stops at an LED 517 or 518 during a reboot in Normal mode, you may want to consider reinstalling your system from a recent backup. Isolating the cause of the hang could be excessively time-consuming and may not be cost-effective in your operating environment. To isolate the possible cause of the hang, would require a debug boot of the system. Instructions for doing this are included in the document "Capturing Boot Debug", available at Support Search for IBM Power Servers. It is still possible, in the end, that isolation of the problem may indicate a restore or reinstall of AIX is necessary to correct it.

Hi All,
How do you know if you need to break the mirror on solaris 8 patch update?
Here's the patch example, 117350-54. On the site, it's just a low type update and not a medium or critical.
Is breaking a mirror a best practice only or really a requirement to some patch?
Thanks,
