SUMMARY: metaset: venus: metad device info: RPC: Can't decode result

Thanks to:

Drew Skinner
David Flores Santa Cruz

Solution:

The versions of SDS on both nodes must be identical as does the path to the 
shared disk.
Once I upgraded the Solaris 8 node to Solaris 9, all worked fine.

Thanks,
-Greg
