System messages are recorded in /var/adm/messages on Solaris

Search them for the word "panic" or "savecore". Also, find the line
which begins "SunOS Release" and look at the stuff before it. For
example, this was a clean shutdown and reboot:
Here are the lines from /var/adm/messages from the time around the reboot:

This looks like bug 6835533 (
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6835533 )
At least the mystery of the reboot can be solved :-)
/etc/group would be the place to check then. What is the timestamp on
that file? Was it modified around the time your groups stopped working?
Well, good hint, but I modified the file this morning to reconfigure
the groups. So the modification time has changed.
In that case, I guess I'm fresh out of ideas, unless you have any ZFS
snapshots you can dig through to find an older copy. Did you enable
time-slider on the root filesystem by any chance?
Regards,
Brian
