Hi Evan.
With /opt set up as a zfs filesystem. (I didn't set the file system
canmount
property to noauto.)
root at opensolaris:~# BE_PRINT_ERR=true
root at opensolaris:~# export BE_PRINT_ERR
root at opensolaris:~# beadm create newbe
be_get_uuid: failed to get uuid property from BE root dataset user
properties.
be_append_menu: failed to open menu.lst file /rpool/boot/menu.lst
be_copy: failed to add BE (newbe) to boot menu
be_copy: destroying partially created boot environment
Unable to create newbe.
Doesn't exist.
root at opensolaris:~#

After copying /opt filesystem contents to a temporary area, zfs destroying
/opt and then recreating /opt as a directory...
root at opensolaris:/# beadm create newbe
be_get_uuid: failed to get uuid property from BE root dataset user
properties.
be_append_menu: failed to open menu.lst file /rpool/boot/menu.lst
be_copy: failed to add BE (newbe) to boot menu
be_copy: destroying partially created boot environment
Unable to create newbe.
Doesn't exist.
Looks like 6194...
Thanks,
Jack
