_ I received sugestions to install patch 101318-54,do reboot -r, and check the connections of the optical fibre cable, in fact the message "drvconfig: System call 'modctl_modconfig' failed" usually is due to a bad connection of the fibre cable or the Sbus Fibre channel Host adapter, but in my case the problem was a strange hardware Problem with Sbus Fibre channel Host adapter, so I installed a new one, and every thing runs OK. it was just plug and play.
