snv_111 - no network, network/routing/ndp:default doesn't start

About a week ago, I upgraded to snv_111. Suddenly yesterday and today,
the machine does not bring up a network at boot. I'm using nwam.
# svcs -vx
svc:/network/routing/ndp:default (in.ndpd IPv6 neighbour discovery daemon)
State: maintenance since ...
And in the log file:
Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/svc-ndp)
Method or service exit timed out. Killing contract 100
Method "start" failed due to signal KILL
ifconfig -a shows me three interfaces: iwk0, bge0, vboxnet0
The latter two show inet6 addresses.
I don't remember enabling IPv6 on this machine,
but apparentl it is now, and it ain't work'in!
Help!
Thanks,
Gordon

I did manage to get past this with:
routeadm -d ipv6-routing
routeadm -d ipv4-routing
routeadm -u
svcadm disable svc:/network/routing/ndp:default
svcadm restart svc:/network/physical:nwam
I'll report if this happens again after my next reboot.

I'm still have no network after every reboot. Here's what I see:
gwr@dell6300gwr$ svcs -vx
svc:/network/routing/ndp:default (in.ndpd IPv6 neighbour discovery daemon)
State: maintenance since Thu Apr 16 10:14:16 2009

Here's what I did to get it working:

(still no network...)
root@dell6300gwr# svcs -vx

Here's the end of the nwam log:

[ Apr 16 10:19:52 Method "stop" exited with status 0. ]
[ Apr 16 10:20:53 Method or service exit timed out. Killing contract 11. ]
OK, trying to fix nwam:
root@dell6300gwr# svcadm clear svc:/network/physical:nwam
Yea! I have a network again.
Now, I wish I didn't have to go through this after every reboot.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this permanently?
I'll hazard a guess that VirtualBox 2.2.0 is involved.
(See the nwam complaint about the "vboxnet0")
Thanks,
Gordon

Did you try tracing what happens when your network does not start? Try
# /bin/sh -x /lib/svc/method/net-nwam start
This should echo the SMF script line-by-line as it is executed.
Perhaps that will point you to what's broken...
Also you might try to compare your current net-nwam with the one from your
previous Solaris version. If there's some change leading to regressio you'd find it.
HTH, Jim

I'm still having this problem after every reboot.
Here's some more information. During starup, this svc fails:
svc:/network/routing/ndp:default
The start method eventually gets killed by SMF for
taking so long to complete. It's running:
/usr/lib/inet/in.ndpd
I tried running that by hand, with the -d option,
and I observe that it seems to be trying to do an
IPv6 DHCP on my wired interface, and just waits...
(I'll send the log once I get that machine back up)
After this service goes into maintenance,
nwam doesn't start either. (a dependent?)
I haven't a clue what's going on here.
Any suggestions?

Strange; in.ndpd daemonizes pretty early, which should cause that command
to return quickly.

in.ndpd won't do DHCP. At most, it will kick dhcpagent to do DHCP via
start_dhcp(). To explore whether this is part of the problem, you can
turn this off via "StatefulAddrConf false" in /etc/inet/ndpd.conf.

What do you mean by "nwam doesn't start"? Is the service in
maintenance? Enabled but offline?
network/physical:nwam does not depend on ndp; rather, ndp
(indirectly) depends on network/physical (either the default
or nwam instance will satisfy the dependency). That is, ndp
depends on milestone/network, which depends on network/physical.
So if nwam is in a funky state, that could be contributing to
the ndp weirdness (though I would expect more than just ndp to
be unhappy in that case). Or maybe something else is making both
serices unhappy.
If it seems that nwam has run amok, enabling debugging and getting
a log of what it does on boot would be helpful. Please refer to
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nwam/picea/troubleshooting/; the
last note on that page ("None of the above") describes how to enable
debugging.
Thanks,
renee

Here's what the failure looks like, initially:
svc:/network/routing/ndp:default (in.ndpd IPv6 neighbour discovery daemon)
State: offline since Tue Apr 21 12:57:54 2009
Reason: Start method is running.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-C4
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M in.ndpd
See: /var/svc/log/network-routing-ndp:default.log
Impact: This service is not running.
Then after the start method finishes (a few minutes)
it goes into state "maintenance".

Thanks for that tip. I've attached a debug log to this message.
It does appear that this problem has to do with nwam not getting
along with the new "vboxnet0" interface. I went ahead and created
a virtualbox ticket: http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/3754
They suggested this work around which does avoid the problem:
Change the vboxnet0 line in /etc/nwam/llp to look like:
vboxnet0 static 1.1.1.1
This also works:
vboxnet0 static 0.0.0.0
I'm not sure what vboxnet0 is for, apparently "host-only" networks?
The one clue I see the log for vboxnet0 is:
Anyway, thanks for the tips.
Gordon

Oops: that "clue" in the previous was missing. This was in /var/adm/messages
Apr 21 12:36:09 dell6300gwr nwamd[1250]: [ID 903261 daemon.error] get_ifflags: icfg_get_flags iwk0 af 2: No such device or address
Apr 21 12:36:09 dell6300gwr nwamd[1250]: [ID 903261 daemon.error] get_ifflags: icfg_get_flags vboxnet0 af 2: No such device or address
Hope that helps someone fix this.

Oops, posted too soon on this:
> This also works:

It has to be non-zero, or nwam still tries to do dhcp on the i/f.
