Re: unable to boot the tru64 unix server from the SRM prompt
Hi,
I've still not seen the output of "show boot*"
However, I'll guess that you should try booting up off dra0.
P00>>> b dra0
Cheers,
Rob

Re: unable to boot the tru64 unix server from the SRM prompt
Rob,
I do not think that machine can be booted from DRA0. See output of "disklabel -r dsk0".
As I can see, dsk0 is DRA0, and dsk1 is DKD0.
DRA0 has just one partition marked as advfs (partition "a"), and DKD0 does not have any partition marked as advfs or ufs, but has primary boot block created.
Default boot device is probably DKD0.
Imran,
Your situation is very strange and confusing.
Looks like someone changed disk label or something like that. That does not look like a hardware problem to me. Also it does not look like file system or domain corruption (it does nor change disk label)
Please do the following before restoring backup:
1.
Boot from Tru64 Unix V5.1B Media and go shell
2.
Do:
# dn_setup -install_tape
3.
Send output of:
# hwmgr -show scsi
# hwmgr -view device
# mt status
# disklabel -r dsk0
# disklabel -r dsk1
# disklabel -r dsk2
# disklabel -r dsk3
# disklabel -r dsk4
# disklabel -r dsk5
# disklabel -r dsk6
# disklabel -r dsk7
