Hi jkeil, That worked great. After getting to a prompt and digging around I remembered what I had done the night before which caused this problem.
It was failing on the service svc:/network/npiv_config:default because the file /lib/svc/method/npivconfig was missing. The previous night I had removed some packages (a few ethernet drivers I didn't need, and a few fiber channel packages I apparently did need.) It turns out that one of those package removals removed a file that was needed by a package that remained. If you could tell me how to find the list of packages I removed, then I can post a list to see if any of the packages has a missing dependency. the pkg history command doesn't show the package names.
