RE: Recover Super Block
First check where the alternate superblocks are available
newfs -N /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
it will give the alternate super blocks
then choose any one alternate superblock no and run this command
fsck -o b alternate superblock /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0

RE: Recover Super Block

You can get the alternate super blocks by command

# newfs -N /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0

Then run with any of listed alternate blocks

# fsck -o b 32 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
