Please provide the output of 'vxdisk list' command. As it seems to me you have no veritas 'opt' disk in 'bootdg' disk group.<br />
Also you may perform &quot;ls -al /dev/vx/rdsk/bootdg/opt' and see does it exist.<br />
Next, very often bug, check that you have all 'TAB's (not spaces) between fields in vfstab.

I was wondering if anyone has run into an issue with a filesystem not mounting on a reboot on Solaris with Volume Manager.<br />
<br />
I've been handed a Sunfire V880 w/ Solaris 9 Generic_112233-12 and Volume Manager 4.0. &nbsp;The file system in question are on local disk and are ufs. &nbsp;It is encapsulated.<br />
<br />
The /opt filesystem is set to mount automatically on reboot in the /etc/vfstab, however when the system comes it doesn't mount and doesn't log any errors to /var/adm/messages. <br />
<br />
The stanza in our vfstab file is:<br />
/dev/vx/dsk/bootdg/opt &nbsp;/dev/vx/rdsk/bootdg/opt /opt &nbsp; &nbsp;ufs &nbsp; &nbsp; 2 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; yes &nbsp; &nbsp; -<br />
<br />
Let me know if I can provide further detail.<br />
Thanks

opt filesystem won't mount automatically on reboot

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
