Weird output from df on Solaris 9

  • 772

I just ran df -h on a Solaris 9 machine and got a a very weird output, something I have never seen before.

/proc                    0K     0K     0K     0%    /proc
mnttab                   0K     0K     0K     0%    /etc/mnttab
fd                       0K     0K     0K     0%    /dev/fd

Output from df:

/proc              (/proc             ):       0 blocks    29886 files
/etc/mnttab        (mnttab            ):       0 blocks        0 files
/dev/fd            (fd                ):       0 blocks        0 files

Included output from truss:

statvfs64("/proc", 0xFFBFFAC8)                  = 0
/proc                    0K     0K     0K     0%    /proc
write(1, " / p r o c              ".., 58)      = 58
statvfs64("/etc/mnttab", 0xFFBFFAC8)            = 0
mnttab                   0K     0K     0K     0%    /etc/mnttab
write(1, " m n t t a b            ".., 64)      = 64
statvfs64("/dev/fd", 0xFFBFFAC8)                = 0
fd                       0K     0K     0K     0%    /dev/fd
write(1, " f d                    ".., 60)      = 60

Does anyone know what might have caused this? And what why it's displaying this?

Thanks in advance,

Anders

    Where's your / filesystem? Is this all output from df? What does mount say? And "who -r" (shows runlevel), and format? How is your vfstab?

    The zero's are not that weird:

    # df | egrep "proc|mnttab|fd"
/proc              (/proc             ):       0 blocks    15767 files
/etc/mnttab        (mnttab            ):       0 blocks        0 files
/dev/fd            (fd                ):       0 blocks        0 files

    It seems like you're mising your disk(s). Where do you boot from?
