Hi All,
I installed DiskSuite 4.2.1 on top of Solaris 8 and jsut finished mirroring
the /usr filesystem after using format to configure the partitions. These
are the commands I used for mirroring /usr -
Created state database replicas -
bash-2.03# metadb -a -f -c 2 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s6
bash-2.03# metadb -a -c 2 /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s6
Created submirrors and mirror -
bash-2.03# metainit -f d12 1 1 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s3
d12: Concat/Stripe is setup
bash-2.03# metainit -f d22 1 1 /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3
d22: Concat/Stripe is setup
bash-2.03# metainit d2 -m d12
d2: Mirror is setup
Edited vfstab with this entry -
/dev/md/dsk/d2 /dev/md/rdsk/d2 /usr ufs 1 no -
Attached submirror -
# metattach d2 d22
This worked fine and it resynced to an okay state. Was happy at this point.
Then I decided to reboot, and it all went pear shaped. This is what I got
on reboot -
Usage:
mount [-v | -p]
mount [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options]
{special | mount_point}
mount [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options]
special mount_point
mount -a [-F FSType ] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options]
[mount_point ...]
/sbin/rcS: /usr/bin/loadkeys: not found
/etc/rcS.d/S35lvm.init: rm: not found
WARNING: /proc could not be mounted
/sbin/swapadd: expr: not found
/sbin/swapadd: swap: not found
WARNING - /usr/sbin/fsck not found. Most likely the
mount of /usr failed or the /usr filesystem is badly
damaged. The system is being halted. Either reinstall
the system or boot with the -b option in an attempt
to recover.
syncing file systems... done
Program terminated
{1} ok
Help .. Have no idea what has happened. This happened once already and I
rebuilt the server and started again cause I couldn't fix /usr and get the
system to reboot !!!!!!!
Any ideas ???
Rgds
