An identical system was discovered and the 'prtvtoc' output was used from that system to initialize the disk via 'fmthard'. Once that was completed the remainder of the work was a straightforward SDS disk replacement. Sunmanagers, One of our admins was replacing a disk and performed the following command backwards. prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 this should have been: prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 I am currently searching to find out the previous slice boundaries for the 'good' disk. At this point running (while booted to the net in single user) fstyp /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 returns 'unknown_fstype'. Any suggestions on recovery methods aside from re-installing? At this time I do not know if I can recover the previous slice table or not.
