Hi Solaris Gurus,
I wonder if you could help on this: I removed /usr completely by a stupid mistake when I intended to remove some files under it. I could not boot from cdrom when I try to recover if from the tape.
Can you help please?
Best Regards,
Paprika

have you tried to recover using the interactive restore ufsrestore or vxfrestore ( depends on your dump ufs or vxf) ?
