This issue has been solved. See solution.
I am using vmware - solaris 10 x86
not able to mount vxvm volume.
Troubleshoot so far
root@AAKASH # mount -f vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/mydg/vol01 /mnt
UX:vxfs mount: ERROR: V-3-22168: Cannot open portal device: No such file or directory
grn
UX:vxfs mount: ERROR: V-3-25255: mount: You don't have a license to run this program
root@AAKASH # pkginfo -l VRTSvxfs | grep STATUS
STATUS: completely installed
STATUS: completely installed
root@AAKASH # ls -lad /devices/pseudo/vxportal*
/devices/pseudo/vxportal*: No such file or directory
/devices/pseudo/vxportal*: No such file or directory
It seems vxportal driver not installed.

Still not able to mount volume
no pseudo files available for vxportal and fdd
root@AAKASH # ls -lad /devices/pseudo/vxportal*
/devices/pseudo/vxportal*: No such file or directory
root@AAKASH # devfsadm -v -i vxportal
devfsadm: driver failed to attach: vxportal
exit status = 1
root@AAKASH # devfsadm -v -i fdd
devfsadm: driver failed to attach: fdd
exit status = 1
Got the solution
root@AAKASH # rem_drv vxportal
root@AAKASH # rem_drv fdd
root@AAKASH # add_drv -v -n vxportal
No 32-bit version of (vxportal) found; 64-bit version of this driver exists.
64-bit driver (vxportal) not loadable on 32-bit kernel.
exit status = 0
System configuration files modified but vxportal driver not loaded or attached.
Driver (vxportal) installed.
root@AAKASH # add_drv -v -n fdd
No 32-bit version of (fdd) found; 64-bit version of this driver exists.
64-bit driver (fdd) not loadable on 32-bit kernel.
exit status = 0
System configuration files modified but fdd driver not loaded or attached.
Driver (fdd) installed.
Solution :- Storage foundation dump I have is for 64-bit version. Able to install on solaris 10 x86. driver installed for 64-bit after installing Storage fountdaion.
Strorage foundation for 32-bit required.
No 32-bit version
As from version 5, SF is only supported on 64-bit.
