The solution:
after the last reboot, the /tools directory was changed from
(~) shalmaneser 88 % df /tools
/tools (auto_tools ): 0 blocks 0 files
to
/tools (/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 ): 200762 blocks 100872 files
I rmdir the /tools directory, recreated it, and automount -v. All is well
again.
Thanks to:
Sun. No one on the list was able to help, unfortunately. I ended up
opening a ticket with Sun.
