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.

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
