Herman,
look at your /etc/lu/ICF.* files. Find the one for the snv95 boot env.
(You'll easily identify it by looking into the file)
You'll see the list of the filesystems to be mounted with that boot
environment. Make sure that this list is in correct order. I.e. the
parent directory is listed _before_ its children. Reorder if needed
and retry the ludelete.
Example:
incorrect order:
snv_98:/export/home/imp:rpool/export/home/imp:zfs:0
snv_98:/export/home/impux:rpool/export/home/impux:zfs:0
snv_98:/export/home:rpool/export/home:zfs:0
correct order:
snv_98:/export/home:rpool/export/home:zfs:0
snv_98:/export/home/imp:rpool/export/home/imp:zfs:0
snv_98:/export/home/impux:rpool/export/home/impux:zfs:0
Hope it helps.
