Many thanks to all those who replied. The consensus is that the messages are benign and normal, a result of the system only using mirrors and not being configured for metatrans, raid5, hotspares, and soft partitions. They come from lines in the /etc/system file. It is not recommended to edit those lines, although it might be ok provided your system never needs metatrans, raid5, hotspares, and soft partitions. If you do comment them out, use "*" rather than "#" for the system file. And if SVM ever needs them, be sure to uncomment them and reboot first.
