Veritas root disk will not boot!

When i boot in veritas management mode and type. (Notice, the root volume does not exist.

How do i get it back?

vxvmboot -v /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0

I get:

LIF Label File @ (1k) block # 834 on VxVM Disk /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0:

Re: Veritas root disk will not boot!

vxvmboot -r should do the trick, but only if you know the offsets.

Better try /etc/vx/bin/vxbootsetup c1t2d0

My 2 cents,

And now for something completely different...
