I’m pretty sure I had this fixed before, but honestly, I don’t remember what I did (plan to DOCUMENT what I do this time!). Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Try making a loopback-mount for now with something like
  rm /var/sadm/pkg
  mkdir /var/sadm/pkg
  mount -F lofs /apps/sadm/pkg /var/sadm/pkg
You can also make this permanent via vfstab.


Best regards
