"Click Update All to create a new boot environment and install all packages in it." This is correct. The new BE is the updated one. The text in the Update All dialog which you quote is misleading. I have logged http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=6132 After I updated to build 105 and logged into the new BE there were no updates available.
