In the words of a South Park teacher:

present them

Please post the vfstab, without it no one can tell you
anything.

I have observed this problem on an unpatched Solaris 2.6 system.
So, what version of Solaris is this happening with?

In answer to another post: once the machine is up, a mount -a will mount
all filesystem correctly.

The machine is a 2.6 machine.

(Sorry, both those bits of info were supposed to be in my first post.)

Here's the vfstab:

#device device mount FS fsck mount mount
#to mount to fsck point type pass at boot options
#
fd - /dev/fd fd - no -
/proc - /proc proc - no -
/dev/md/dsk/d9 - - swap - no -
/dev/md/dsk/d1 /dev/md/rdsk/d1 / ufs 1 no -
/dev/md/dsk/d13 /dev/md/rdsk/d13 /var ufs 1 no -
swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -
#
/dev/md/dsk/d4 - /newsales ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d5 - /oracle ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d2 - /mrsdata ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d7 - /datamart ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d3 - /datamart3 ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d8 - /datamart_bak ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d30 - /incent ufs 2 yes -
/dev/dsk/c1t11d48s0 - /oas_websrv ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d10 - /exp_srvr ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d12 - /new_backup ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d0 - /datamart2 ufs 2 yes -

The filesystems that don't mount at boot are:

/datamart
/datamart2
/oracle

Thanks,

Sean.

Why don't all those filesystems from /newsales down have a device to
fsck at boot?

I don't know if it's related, but
/dev/md/dsk/d4 - /newsales ufs 2 yes -

should be

/dev/md/dsk/d4 /dev/md/rdsk/d4 /newsales ufs 2 yes -
