It is not "dying" on this message. It is just disconnecting you from the SSH session because sshd daemon was shutdown in the reboot process. It is normal when rebooting through SSH (and for this reason should be avoided, cause you can't see if server came up after reboot). For remote reboot it is better to use ILOM, ALOM or XSCF (depending on your hardware) and do it from server's console.

I seem to be having a very irritating problem with my Solaris 11 Express fileserver which I built for my small home business. The basic problem is that the system will hang or freeze about 20 seconds into booting up. Grub comes up fine, and I can select between pre-napp-it and current build. It... (13 Replies)

reboot(8) System Manager's Manual reboot(8)
NAME
reboot, halt, poweroff - reboot or stop the system
SYNOPSIS
reboot [OPTION]...
halt [OPTION]...
poweroff [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
These programs allow a system administrator to reboot, halt or poweroff the system.
When called with --force or when in runlevel 0 or 6, this tool invokes the reboot(2) system call itself and directly reboots the system.
Otherwise this simply invokes the shutdown(8) tool with the appropriate arguments.
Before invoking reboot(2), a shutdown time record is first written to /var/log/wtmp
OPTIONS
-f, --force
Does not invoke shutdown(8) and instead performs the actual action you would expect from the name.
-p, --poweroff
Instructs the halt command to instead behave as poweroff.
-w, --wtmp-only
Does not call shutdown(8) or the reboot(2) system call and instead only writes the shutdown record to /var/log/wtmp
--verbose
Outputs slightly more verbose messages when rebooting, useful for debugging problems with shutdown.
ENVIRONMENT
RUNLEVEL
reboot will read the current runlevel from this environment variable if set in preference to reading from /var/run/utmp
FILES
/var/run/utmp
Where the current runlevel will be read from; this file will also be updated with the runlevel record being replaced by a shutdown
time record.
/var/log/wtmp
A new runlevel record for the shutdown time will be appended to this file.
