i am not sure i know what you are asking, but given the errors you are showing 
this is the proper procedure to change the mtu

ifconfig e1000g0 unplumb
ifconfig e1000g1 unplumb
...
dladm set-linkprop -p MTU=9000 e1000g0
dladm set-linkprop -p MTU=9000 e1000g1
...
then you can restart your networking...
svcadm restart physical/network:default (if static addressing)
or
svcadm restart physical/network:nwam (if dhcp)



the question i have related to this, is that when i set my MTU to 9000 it isnt 
persistent across reboots on e1000g0 - i saw in bugster that someone else had 
raised the issue and it was closed as unreproducible -- i can reproduce it. 

when looking at /etc/dladm/datalink.conf:
1       
name=string,e1000g4;class=int,1;media=int,4;phyinst=int,5;phymaj=int,110;devname=string,e1000g4;
2       
name=string,e1000g5;class=int,1;media=int,4;devname=string,e1000g5;phymaj=int,110;phyinst=int,6;MTU=string,9000;
3       
name=string,e1000g2;class=int,1;media=int,4;phyinst=int,3;phymaj=int,110;devname=string,e1000g2;
4       
name=string,e1000g3;class=int,1;media=int,4;phyinst=int,4;phymaj=int,110;devname=string,e1000g3;
5       
name=string,e1000g0;class=int,1;media=int,4;phyinst=int,1;phymaj=int,110;devname=string,e1000g0;
6       
name=string,e1000g1;class=int,1;media=int,4;devname=string,e1000g1;phymaj=int,110;phyinst=int,2;MTU=string,9000;

i see this problem on snv_111b
any ideas?
