I am seeing bizarre behavior with my Solaris 10U3 and 10U4 boxes that doesn't 
exist on my Solaris 9U9 box.  My test platform is as follows:

3 v440 servers.  1 has sol9u9, 1 with 10U3, and 1 with 10U4.  LPFC 6.11c, 
Veritas 5.0MP1 RP3, and 80 luns mapped from a SAN.  Booting from the internal 
boot device.

When I reboot the solaris 10 boxes with a normal (non-reconfig) reboot, they 
will hang about 75% of the time after the "LMX Multiplexor available" message 
is displayed on the console.  This is very consistent behavior.  My sol9 box 
never has this issue.  Other members of my team have also observed this 
behavior on their test platforms.

When I see the hang, the only way I can get the box to come up is with a 
reconfiguration reboot...and that never fails.

Has anyone seen this before?  What could be happening differently in the 
reconfig reboot versus the normal reboot that would keep this from happening?  
I haven't added or removed any devices so it isn't like it is finding anything 
new.  Additionally, I have run "devfsadm -C" so any old dead device links are 
gone.

Any input or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Derrick
