Last week our server went down. I narrowed it down the the hard drive. I received a new drive but I REALLY need some info off the old drive. I want to get the old drive up long enough to do a dd copy. Here's what I tried..............
After trying to freeze the old drive (wasn't spinning up) to no avail I did some reading and found that I may have a bad controller card. I had another bad drive laying around the office so I swapped cards.
I was able to boot.....partially.....i received:
/dev/dsk/c1t1d0s1 No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s1
I ran fsck -y but i received the Can't open /dev/rdsk/blah blah
when i do a probe-scsi-all it sees the disk
when i do a format it does see the disk
Help PLEASE......
I'm running Solaris 8......
