Answer / mukram

The above can be done for quick reference. But if we take
the backup in the same server and , what if the server do
not boot up after shutdown.

1. Run an explorer and move it to local system or any other
server.

2. copy all commands output to local system:
#df -h
#cat /etc/vfstab
#netstat -nr
#ifconfig -a
#iostat -en
#cat /etc/host and hostname
#metastat -c // to check the all the metadevices are ok &
attached.
#prtconf -pv | grep -i boot //to check the boot path
#svcs -xv // to check the services
# scstat // check the cluster stats
# fmdump -v
#eeprom
