[pca] Kernel Patch 142909-17

[Diana Orrick]

  All indications are that the kernel patch 142909-17 progressed to
the installation of SUNWdcar package and just stopped. (????)

Patching was halted/killed, partial install backed out cleanly and
later the system rebooted fine.

Unfortunately, the other node in the cluster was not fine. Pay very close
attention to the back out procedures in the kernel patch README under 
Note 4.
Node would not boot when backout procs were not followed.

An excellent, reminder to review the docs prior to work, no matter how
many previous successes are under your belt.
