Hi, I am currently trying to restore a Solaris 10 OS from one of our production servers from backup to an in-house DR solaris 10 box.
I did not recover the following from the backup: /etc/defaultrouter /etc/vfstab /etc/path_to_instt /etc/name_to_major /dev/dsk /dev/rdsk /etc/netmask The restore was succesful and after the restore was done, I then had to remove veritas (did a pkgrm on all the veritas packages). I then did a # rm -rf /dev/vx /etc/vx I then ran # devfsadm and # touch /reconfigure and rebooted the server. The server didn't come back up for the following: svc:/system/vxvm/vxvm-sysboot:default State: maintenance Reason: Start method failed repeatedly Not sure why svc is trying to start veritas because I did a pkgrm on all veritas packages?? I had to log into single user mode and run: # svccfg delete system/vxvm/vxvm-sysboot:defaut (I also had to svccfg delete about 5 other vxvm/vxfs services as well) I then ran the following command so I could disable ipfilter to get around this error that I also was receiving: svc:/network/ipfilter:default State: maintenance Reason: start method exited with $SMF_EXIT_ERR_CONFIG. I ran: # svcadm disable network/ipfilter:default and rebooted the server again. Now I'm not getting any svc errors, but the machine will still not boot up and now I'm getting "Console login service(s) cannot run". Am I doing something wrong with my OS recovery?? Why does the svc still see veritas even though all veritas packages have been removed?? Why am I now getting this "Console login service(s) cannot run" message? Here is the output that I'm currently getting from the svcs -xv command: svc:/milestone/devices:default (device configuration milestone) State: offline Reason: Dependency svc:system/vxvm/vxvm-startup2 is absent Any help/thoughts/input is greatly appreciated.
