Solaris 10 vxvm 5.0 encapsulation fails

Hi,

I'm using Solaris 10 with vxvm 5.0 (Storage Foundation 5.0 with no patch or MPs installed).
After installation - I've started the volume manager with vxinstall answering the questions as follows:
n,n,n,y,rootdg

Then I used the following command to encapsulate the root disk:
/usr/lib/vxvm/bin/vxencap -A -c -g rootdg -f sliced -s 2048 rootdisk=c1t0d0s2

So far all is fine.
After rebooting the system resyncs - boots itself again and during the second boot showing the following messages and gets stuck. BTW - The same process works well on Solaris 9 with vxvm 4.0

NOTICE: VxVM vxdmp V-5-0-34 added disk array CK200040800161, datype = EMC_CLARiiON
NOTICE: VxVM vxdmp V-5-0-34 added disk array CK200040800286, datype = EMC_CLARiiON
NOTICE: VxVM vxdmp V-5-0-34 added disk array DISKS, datype = Disk
NOTICE: VxVM vxdmp V-5-3-1700 dmpnode 299/0x0 has migrated from enclosure FAKE_ENCLR_SNO to enclosure DISKS


1. Is there anything wrong with the encapsulation process?
2. Why does the encapsulation gets stuck?
3. Is there anything wrong with the Solaris installation?
4. Is there any vxvm (Storage Foundation) patch missing that may solve this issue?

Thanks,
Shaul
