Init 0 problem

[unixman1000]

Recently i have been having problems with shutdown using init 0.

I have looked through a lot of the posts to see if anyone has had this problem and came across thread60-995218.

Does anyone know if the patch mentioned in that thread has been released, if so what patch it is.

Im running a sunfire V480R with solaris 5.8.

I ran into this problem as well and could not figure out a fix for it. This is how I shutdown the machines with the same problem.

sync && sync && uadmin 2 0

This command is a problem for our system as we have a SAN. This would mean carring out a FSCK every time on the external disks.

But thanks for the reply

I have machines hooked up to a SAN as well and have not had problems running uadmin. If you run the sync command you should not have to run FSCK. That is what updates the super-blocks and says the file systems are ok.
