[pca] Kernel Patch 141444-09 and undefined symbols

[Williamson, Richard T (Todd R Williamson)]

I've seen a similar problem when the boot archive was not updated prior to reboot.  If this was being patched on a liveupgrade created ABE then the boot archive on the ABE must be updated prior to booting.

/sbin/bootadm update-archive 

This generally occurs when a server that never had the boot archive was patched to a kernel level that introduce the boot archive and it hasn't' been updated.

A PCA user reported problems with kernel patch 141444-09 and "undefined symbol" errors on reboot after patch installation. The problem seems to be reproducible:

# patchadd 141444-09

I couldn't find this problem mentioned on SunSolve or Google. Maybe one of you has seen it before?
