Thanks to Trevor Ellermann and Tim Evans, both of whom
pointed me to the /var/adm/messages file.  To quote
from Trevor's message:

  I was having this exact problem recently too. Here is what I did: 

  I was getting this error in /var/adm/messages:

  Aug 28 11:12:03 tiquini hsfs: [ID 450429 kern.notice]
     NOTICE:hsfs:hsnode table full, 221 nodes allocated, 
  Aug 28 11:12:03 tiquini hsfs: [ID 111760 kern.notice] 
     hsfs: consider increasing # of hsnodes using 
  Aug 28 11:12:03 tiquini hsfs: [ID 806515 kern.notice] 
     hsfs: 'set hsfs:nhsnode=num' in /etc/system 
  Aug 28 11:12:03 tiquini hsfs: [ID 858973 kern.notice] 
     hsfs: and rebooting 

  So, adding this line to the end of /etc/system and rebooting fixed 
  the problem  
     set hsfs:nhsnode=5000 

A smaller value - I tried hsfs:nhsnode=2048 - also worked as well.
Thanks again ...
