    Good morning everyone
    Now I've got a chance to practice AIX disaster recovery: one of the
    scripts smoked /etc/passwd file, to zero. Machine is micropartition,
    freshly installed but due to some reasons rebuild is not an option.
    Could you please advise how to I recover from this situation? (Way to
    boot to single user? Mount rootvg and restore passwd from other
    machine?)

    Thanks in advance

    Dmitry
