Machine booting up to maintenance mode only

807756Aug 11 2009 — edited Aug 14 2009
Hi guys,

I have a problem with one of my Solaris 10 Servers. The issue is it is always going to maintenance-mode.
I'm getting the follwoing message while botting up.

+\+
WARNING: The following files in / differ from the boot archive:


The recommended action is to reboot to the failsafe archive to correct
the above inconsistency. To accomplish this, on a GRUB-based platform,
reboot and select the "Solaris failsafe" option from the boot menu.
On an OBP-based platform, reboot then type "boot -F failsafe". Then
follow the prompts to update the boot archive. Alternately, to continue
booting at your own risk, you may clear the service by running:
+"svcadm clear system/boot-archive"+

When i logged in failsafe mode, the OS partition is mounted as /a .
Then i edited vfstab, and then did bootadm as follows
bootadm update-archive -R /
But after restaring the machine goes to maintenance mode.

Any clue to get rid of it ?

Thanks in advance..
