The easiest is to just forget your current root password (again). OpenSolaris does not lock the root account, you specify a valid password during the installation.
Seriously: I don't recommend ever locking the root password. If you land up with a system that will not get past single-user mode (or some other cenarios involving BSM and problems on disk) you WILL need the root password to be able to recover the system.
