System messages are recorded in /var/adm/messages on Solaris (assuming you've not directed them elsewhere in /etc/syslog.conf). Search them for the word "panic" or "savecore". Also, find the line which begins "SunOS Release" and look at the stuff before it. For example, this was a clean shutdown and reboot:


Here are the lines from /var/adm/messages from the time around the reboot:

This looks like bug 6835533 ( http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6835533 )
At least the mystery of the reboot can be solved :-)



/etc/group would be the place to check then. What is the timestamp on that file? Was it modified around the time your groups stopped working?

Well, good hint, but I modified the file this morning to reconfigure the groups. So the modification time has changed.

In that case, I guess I'm fresh out of ideas, unless you have any ZFS snapshots you can dig through to find an older copy. Did you enable time-slider on the root filesystem by any chance?

Regards,
Brian
