SOLARIS SVC MANIFEST CURROPT – REPO MANIFEST CURROPT – SVCS CANT BIND TO REPOSITORY SERVER

If your solaris system isnt loading but your able to get to a tech support type of environment

# svsc -x
# svsc -a

If all return:

svcs: Could not bind to repository server: repository server unavailable. Exiting.
Then your svc-manifest could be curropt, luckily backups are kept, you can correct this by restoring

Just run this command

# /lib/svc/bin/restore_repository

A menu of options will come up asking for what restore point you would like to go back to by default its “boot”, and that will go to the most recent one – thats usually what I do. Just hit ENTER and it will restore it. The on screen menu will make sense and explain your options and show all of the restore points.

It will then auto reboot your system, or you will have to manually do it

# reboot
