This summary deals more with the hanging system we were experiencing both trying to get to single user mode and in multi-user mode. The symptoms were that in multiuser boot, the machine would hang after stating: NIS domain name is: We were able to determine that svc:/network/initial:default was the service that was hanging by booting with -m verbose. Once we determined that was the service that was hanging up, we were able to boot by issuing a -m milestone=none and then issued a svcadm disable svc:/network/initial:default after which time the box started booting normally. We'll still not sure why the machine was insisting on displaying: nis hostname is at boot because we used svcadm to disable all NIS related services with the following commands: svcadm disable svc:/network/nis/server:default svcadm disable svc:/network/nis/passwd:default svcadm disable svc:/network/nis/update:default svcadm disable svc:/network/nis/xfr:default svcadm disable svc:/network/nis/client:default svcadm disable svc:/network/rpc/nisplus:default -- Michael Hale mhale@transcomus.com _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Dec 19 15:15:54 2007
