1. gogo888: What messages are you seeing during the failed attempt to boot up please?

2. Try a "boot -s" which will boot up the system in single user mode, services like database and web servers will not get started yet, you then have a poke around your system if that works, adding a -v will make it verbose and may give you more clues as to why the boot up is failing.

3. I know this is after the event but enabling ufs logging in the /etc/vfstab file for local mounts renders the system mounts far less susceptible to corruption due to power interruptions, .e.g.:
Quote:
The following is an example for a UFS file system in which logging is enabled:

/dev/dsk/c2t10d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c2t10d0s0 /export/local ufs 3 yes logging
taken from:
vfstab manpage - man.cx

I used ufs logging on a Sun Blade-150 running Solaris 8, and pulled the power cable, without ufs logging the majority of the 10 tests failed, with UFS logging enabled all 10 test runs were okay when power was restored.

4. Running:
Code:
# svcs -xv

lists which services are broken for a Solaris 10 system although you have to be able to boot up the system and log on in order to do this.
