I have facing some problem. I have a Sun 4500 Server at the customer place. Now the server is not booting mean's once the server is coming up it is automatically rebooting. As this is the critical server for the customer that is use for production .
Can this be solved by running FSCK on ROOT. Please send me the process of running FSCK,if bootblk is corupted can we repair it.
without knowning the problem there won't be a solution... use a serial line to the server and catch the output from boot process. would be good to start from ok> prompt with a "boot -v" for more output...
Thank you all for your valuable output. When i give hard reboot once the screen is available it throws some errors like
Now the problem starts:
After that when i tried with Ctrl+d option,it enters into gui mode,b4 gui mode coming properly,it syncing the File System and after that rebooting and coming bck to previous state.
When i tried with the root password,it enters into the maintance mode.
These are the steps I followed there.
-> I boot the system into single user mode by CD
-> Running FSCK on All file system, I even run FSCK on alternative superblok by hoping that it may be corrupted.
-> after that i rebooted the server but the problem still persist.
I am not able to take console or eeven capture the logs..
Please suggest me.............

as suggested... you will need a serial line and forget about the display. if you're not able to boot the system to single user mode and check the /etc/vfstab you might need a boot cd or a bootserver to boot your system from remote media and then edit your vfstab on the internal drive.
