Thanks again Shawn. I had to update pkg first to get to one that works
and am now doing the full update as you suggest. Looks like it will
take a while as there are 81,688 files to change apparently. I had no
zones on that machine, but useful to know.

You are, of course, correct Shawn. Did not think of that possibility, I
have 151a on the machine. What is the best upgrade method to fix this? I
have a SunFire T2000. My x86 Sol 11 machine has an FCS release and so I
did not see this problem there.
You should be able to simply update the system to FCS using 'pkg
update'. I would recommend specifying a --be-name:
pkg update -v --accept --be-name=s11-fcs
Note that updating requires acceptance of the new license, so --accept
must be specified to indicate acceptance of the new licensing terms. I
also strongly recommend specifying -v so you can verify that the
expected upgrade happened.
Finally, be aware that if you have zones, you must first halt and detach
all running zones before updating. After updating the system and
rebooting you will have to reattach each zone with:
zoneadm -z my-zone attach -u
In FCS and upcoming versions of Solaris 11, zone updates are handled
more gracefully.
