I usually work with AIX based systems that has a feature called mksysb. It lets me make a image of the system backup while system is in full production, to a tape, CD, disk, DVD of file. If the AIX crashed, I can restore the full system by the mksysb image.

Is there a command in solaris like mksysb in AIX? Thanks.
 
Not as such, but you may like to investigate jumpstart, ufsdump/restore with a boot CD (though you would need to know or have a record of your disk layout etc).
