and a look at beadm list:

Note it says I'm running 112 [N]ow and at [R]eboot.
You are running 111b which is the most current OpenSolaris version,
AFAIK.
The "beadm" output is "lying" ;)
I guess you had osol-111 or renamed your BE that way, then did a "pkg
image-update" to 111b. But "image-update" just creates a new BE
called "CurrentBE + 1" = 112. it does not mean that you are running 112.
If the next opensolaris update is snv_115 (or whatever build they use)
your BE will read "osol-113".
It would be nice if image-update created BEs with more useful names.
Same for the Grub menu. e.g. based on the release version or uname -a
output.
Yes, that would be nice. You can manually specify it during an image
update, though:
"pkg image-update --be-name <name>"
<name> Will be used as BE name and the GRUB menu name. When using beadm
to create a BE, you can identify those separately:
"beadm create -d <description> <name>"
<name> Will be the BE name
<description> Will be the GRUB menu name
I don't know of a way to pass <description> to the BE created by pkg
image-update other than cloning the new BE afterwards though.
