Question How to resolve error "INIT: Cannot stat /etc/inittab, errno: 2"

Hi All,

I am getting an error message when I execute command “zlogin -C sunsrv4z5” on my root server.
[Connected to zone 'sunsrv4z5' console]

INIT: Cannot stat /etc/inittab, errno: 2

INIT: Cannot stat /etc/inittab, errno: 2

As per my analysis it seems that some files inside /etc folder are deleted.
This server was running fine until yesterday. However, it seems that some files inside /etc or any other relevant files were deleted .

My root server details, (where I am trying to execute the login command) as given by "uname -a" command are as follows:
SunOS sunsrv4 5.10 Generic_141444-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R

Can you please help me how to restore the files back & to fix this issue ??

Thanks in advance.
