If I'm not mistaken (and now I'm thinking I may have lost this stuff due
to an old e-mail purge), someone has done some substantial work doing
bare-metal restores on Solaris. I don't remember the gentleman's name,
but I believe he posted to the list.
    

Yes, now that you mention it, I recall that someone did get rescue working on 
Solaris, but to the best of my knowledge the code was never posted.  If 
someone has the time to check the archives and prove me wrong, he would be 
doing the Solaris users a big favor as I would be very happy to accept such 
code ... :-)
  
I would consider that a HUGE  favor.   I have time, motivation and Solaris boxes to help in making this happen.   What I don't have yet is the wisdom.

I have tried the archives, and found many references to the code, but no actual code.   Last week I even dropped a note to the person who said that they had a working sample, but no reply as of yet.

I am trying to go though the rescue procedures / preparation for
Solaris, SunOS 5.10 Generic sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240,  as directed
by the documentation.   I have a couple of errors with the command
/usr/local/src/bacula-rescue-1.8.6/solaris/getdiskinfo

Error on if statement

Begin collecting system info
./getdiskinfo: test: argument expected

I changed the if syntax to read:
- if [ -e /etc/fstab ]; then
+ if [ -r /etc/fstab ]; then
for all instances of the -e _expression_ and it seemed to work just fine.
It identified that i have a vfstab file and read that.

Error on route command.

"route -n >route.bsi"
error message
usage: route [ -fnqv ] cmd [[ -<qualifers> ] args ]

I am just not sure how to fix this, because I am not sure what the
command is trying to gather.
Currently both the df.bsi and route.bsi files are empty.  The other
files seem to have been created just fine.

I presume that the df.bsi file should contain data, but again, not sure
what and there was no error message.

        
Hmmm. The problem is that no one has yet converted the Linux scripts to 
      
work
  
on Solaris.  There are a lot of important and subtle differences between
Linux and Solaris, eg most "if [ -e xxx ]"  should be "if [ -f xxx ]" ...

There are also a lot of major differences in terms of what info needs to 
      
be
  
saved to reconstruct a system.

I suspect that you might be better off starting with some existing Solaris
script that saves the system, then adding to it the necessary Bacula 
      
stuff.
