services in maintenance or offline mode
Hi,
when I try to open console of solaris 10 on SF V240, it shows maintenance mode and asks for root password. I log in as root but then I do not know what to do,
It also shows message on cosole, console-service not running ..
Where as users are able to connect using ssh and even after trying init 3,
who -r displays following,
run-level Sep 11 15:58 last=
For console-service message , I checked svcs and following 3 are listed as last 3 lines,
maintenance Sep_11 svc:/platform/sun4u/sf880drd:default
maintenance Nov_29 svc:/system/console-login:default
maintenance 14:23:51 svc:/system/auditd:default
svcs -l console-login
fmri svc:/system/console-login:default
name Console login
enabled true
state maintenance
next_state none
state_time Thu Nov 29 14:30:44 2007
logfile /var/svc/log/system-console-login:default.log
restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default
contract_id
dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/minimal (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/system/identity:node (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/system/utmp:default (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/sysconfig (online)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/system/auditd (maintenance)
I don't know how to get these services running now,
I tried init 3 and it makes no difference,
when I diable and enable the console-login it shows

16:15:29 svc:/system/console-login:default

Dec 18 15:59:41 babbage svc.startd[7]: [ID 748625 daemon.error] system/console-login:default failed repeatedly
I do not want to reboot until we try something,
Could this be related to milestone or multiuser something, I am not aware of above terms but I think this problem could have been caused some time back while I was doing something on console and I remember something of multiuser or milestone message on console..
I am sure there would be some work around than reboot
Please help, I want to maintain runlevel 3 and possibly without a reboot\
Thanks
