Waiting for ur replies

You can only check nic in ok> prompt with show-devs/ show-nets / watch-net-all
vmstat might not necessarily show you faulted memory
for NIS, use ypmatch
newly added nic interface by grep network /etc/path_to_inst

+ show-nets. select the device you are interested in and cd to that device. then type .properties (you may need to cd one directory down as i don't remember for .properties). however, ip address details aren't assigned until the OS is up. you can find mac address at obp, however.
+ not sure you can with vmstat. you maybe looking for fmdump which will show faulted hardware such as memory.
+ i thought nis relied on its own passwd file and local users still are in /etc/passwd? i could be wrong as i haven't used NIS or even seen it in years.
+ pending this is solaris10, run dladmn show-dev.

1, Tell me how to check the NIC & Ip address details in OK promt

At OK Prompt, you OS is dead and only hardware part is accessible, so accessing or checking the OS ( IP is assigned by OS/Kernel to the assigned network part, once system is up and running). for NIC you can select using 'show-devs' command listing all possible listing of your hardware.


2, How to check correpted memory using Vmstat command

vmstats is purely for checking current statistics relating to Virtual memory usage ( including swap and realy RAM) and this tool doesn't give you the idea you need here... try using 'dmesg', 'prtdiag',

3, HOw to chekc local usr in nIS

NIS has its own files and depends on configuration, you need to find out if users are configured to work through NIS using /etc/nsswitch.conf and look for passwd entry.

4, How to get the newely added NIC card name?
sysdef|grep net
prtconf -vp|grep net
