Thanks go to Helmut Kreft with his reply below. It turned out I was
getting a little too aggressive in disabling services to minimize my box.
By checking the dependencies on the mdmonitor service I was able to trace
back that the rpc/meta service relied on the inetd service which I
previously disabled. By enabling inetd again, then doing another init 6,
all the mirrors now sync correctly and metastat shows everything as Okay.

Hello,
I'm testing out Solaris 10 03/05 on my E250 with 6 hard drives. I used
SVM to setup some mirrors including the root partition like I've done
before on my Solaris 9 boxes.
However, it seems that every time I reboot this test box and I run
metastat, the submirrors always say "Needs maintenance". I run "metasync
<mirror>" and it syncs back up rather quickly, but then I have to do it
again after the next init 6 when I test another option.
Is there something I forget to add to keep the mirrors in sync after a
reboot? Does anyone else see this behavior?
Regards,
-Eric
