Hi I've mistaken doing command chown. I did #chown -R root:sys / and then pressed Enter. In what files or folders I've changed ownership? Is it possible to rool back?
The only rollback I figure is to restore from your Ignite tape. But since I'm not a system administrator guru wait for them before doing anything more or open a call at HP...
you have changed owner and group for all files in your system :(
there is no normal roolback method, you can restore system from backup or restore to another server and collect permissions in shell script which can be used in your primary server.
This is a very ciritical thing you have done and restoring things is diffcult though not impossible. Fast solution woould be to restore ignite backup if you have one.
regards,
You need to know a lot to actually know how little you know
...will handle the files and directories in the IPD (Installed Product Database) *but* you may have changed ownership on files and directories in non-vg00 filesystems too!
As mentioned, you could also use an Ignite recovery tape to recover vg00.
I'm afraid that you have a significant amount of recovery and detective work to do. Good luck.
