How do i fsck / on solaris 10?

[ID 879645 kern.notice] NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 211471, run fsck(1M) -o f

How can i run fsck cleanly (/ unmounted) ? The only solutions i can see are: - detach the SDS mirror, fsck on the other metadevice, reboot on it, and sync back the mirror; - boot on a CDROM and run fsck (hope the CD will handle the RAID).

Is there a ways to force Solaris 10 to run fsck on next reboot ? How do you fsck your / on Solaris 10 ?

    From the ok prompt:

    boot -m milestone=none

    should do it

  2. Unfortunately, boot -m milestone=none didn't work for us; we simply got the same recurring error message on boot.

    Instead, we had to take the "boot on a CDROM and run fsck" route. Oracle has a detailed doc on it called How to Check the root (/), /usr, or /var File Systems From an Alternate Boot Device
