The validation of the manifest is done twice. First when the manifest is added to the service in the install server (SUNWinstalladm-tools validation applies) and second by the install service in the client (validation depends on the manifest schema in the AI image).
Currently the nightly installadm-tools use the 'new format' and all AI images up to osol_110 included use the 'old format'. We ran this problem in PIT and the solution was to fall back to a previous version of SUNWinstalladm-tools.
