    Can you attach the install logs ? Was there any other error during installation ? Is it only the DMP installation or you are installing whole SF ? Did you do a rom --verify & confirm if package is installed without errors ?

    Try booting from CD/network in single user mode, Try to create a file (/etc/vx/reconfig.d/state.d/install-db), this file will make sure that vxvm doesn't start during boot time. Once system is booted

    paste below

    # cat /etc/system

    Try starting vxconfigd manually here

    # vxiod set 10
    # vxconfigd -m disable
    # vxdctl init <hostname>

    # vxdctl enable

    Let us know if you are able to start vxconfigd manually.

     

    In the mean time, something worth to look in
