subsystems are all inoperative

Hi,

As part of our maintenance schedule, we reboot our systems every few months to test HACMP and etc... etc....
It looked like everything was normal but when we tried to bring up HACMP, we didn't see anything in the /etc/hacmp.out and we didn't see any processes associated with HACMP running.

So, I looked at "lssrc -a" to see if the subsystems associated with HACMP was running and this is part of what I saw:

atlmboxa/root :/>lssrc -a|more
Subsystem Group PID Status
qdaemon spooler inoperative
writesrv spooler inoperative
lpd spooler inoperative
clvmd inoperative
inetd tcpip inoperative
gated tcpip inoperative
named tcpip inoperative
.....
.......
...........

All of the subsystems show up as inoperative, starting them manually does not help, rebooting the system does not help.

Has anyone seen this behavior before? If so, what is causing it and how do we fix it.

Thanks in Advance.

NAME
shutdown - close down the system at a given time SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/shutdown [-fhknr] time [warning-message]... DESCRIPTION
shutdown provides an automated procedure to notify users when the system is to be shut down. time specifies when shutdown will bring the system down; it may be the word now (indicating an immediate shutdown), or it may specify a future time in one of two formats: +number and hour:min. The first form brings the system down in number minutes, and the second brings the system down at the time of day indicated in 24-hour notation. At intervals that get closer as the apocalypse approaches, warning messages are displayed at terminals of all logged-in users, and of users who have remote mounts on that machine. At shutdown time a message is written to the system log daemon, syslogd(1M), containing the time of shutdown, the instigator of the shut- down, and the reason. Then a terminate signal is sent to init, which brings the system down to single-user mode. OPTIONS
As an alternative to the above procedure, these options can be specified: -f Arrange, in the manner of fastboot(1B), that when the system is rebooted, the file systems will not be checked. -h Execute halt(1M). -k Simulate shutdown of the system. Do not actually shut down the system. -n Prevent the normal sync(2) before stopping. -r Execute reboot(1M). FILES

Only allows you to bring the system down between now and 23:59 if you use the absolute time for shutdown. SunOS 5.11 11 Oct 1994 shutdown(1B)
