Summary: turn on logging for / after jumpstart

Thanks for all responses, I think I'll use 1 and 2 for my job
I'll keep method 3 handy for other task.

Good, I learned something today.

1. Without reboot, you can run.

mount -o remount,logging /

  this would not change /etc/vfstab for you.


2. for jumpstart profile.

filesys         rootdisk.s1     1000           swap
filesys         rootdisk.s0     free            /       logging


3. Another cool way provided by Jay for jumpstart

[The following does it for *all* ufs file systems, not just /, because
 that's what I do on all my systems.]

You could do this in your jumpstart finish script (you reboot after this,
anyway):

#!/bin/sh
cp -p /a/etc/vfstab /a/etc/vfstab.install
sed -e 's?^\(/dev/dsk/.*/dev/rdsk.*ufs.*\)- *$?\1logging?' \
    < /a/etc/vfstab.install > /a/etc/vfstab

Or if you must do it later:
#!/bin/sh
cp -p /etc/vfstab /etc/vfstab.install
sed -e 's?^\(/dev/dsk/.*/dev/rdsk.*ufs.*\)- *$?\1logging?' \
    < /etc/vfstab.install > /etc/vfstab
mount -o remount,logging /

The latter does the runtime remount only for /, though the vfstab
is changed for all ufs file systems.  Extensions/modifications
left to the reader.

Both script fragments assume the as-installed vfstab, with a "mount
options" field of "-".
