SolutionIf you mean the directory /root (usually the root user's HOME directory) then there is little effect. However, I think you may have meant that the entire / directory (called the root directory) was copied.
It would help to understand what command was used to copy the / directory. Was the second machine's / directory mounted as an NFS directory?
Or was the copy done by using tar on a tape from the second machine?
In either case, untangling the mess will not be easy, especially for the system-dependent files in /dev and config files in /etc. Applications and databases will likely be corrupted and unfixable. You'll have to use your latest Ignite backup to restore the machine to working order.
