Thanks alot guys.. Conclusion is that, if I installed S11 using rpool whole disk, do not fall back on SVM. Instead continue using zfs. If installed OS using UFS with free slice, then use SVM. That's it

mdlogd(1M) System Administration Commands mdlogd(1M)
NAME
mdlogd - Solaris Volume Manager daemon
SYNOPSIS
mdlogd
DESCRIPTION
mdlogd implements a simple daemon that watches the system console looking for messages written by the Solaris Volume Manger. When a Solaris
Volume Manager message is detected, mdlogd sends a generic SNMP trap.
To enable traps, you must configure mdlogd into the SNMP framework. See Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide.
USAGE
mdlogd implements the following SNMP MIB:
SOLARIS-VOLUME-MGR-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN
IMPORTS
enterprises FROM RFC1155-SMI
DisplayString FROM SNMPv2-TC;
-- Sun Private MIB for Solaris Volume Manager
sun OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { enterprises 42 }
sunSVM OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { sun 104 }
-- this is actually just the string from /dev/log that
-- matches the md: regular expressions.
-- This is an interim SNMP trap generator to provide
-- information until a more complete version is available.
-- this definition is a formalization of the old
-- Solaris DiskSuite mdlogd trap mib.
svmOldTrapString OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..255))
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"This is the matched string that
was obtained from /dev/log."
::= { sunSVM 1 }
-- SVM Compatibility ( error trap )
svmNotice TrapTRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE sunSVM
VARIABLES { svmOldTrapString }
DESCRIPTION
"SVM error log trap for NOTICE.
This matches 'NOTICE: md:'"
::= 1
svmWarningTrap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE sunSVM
VARIABLES { svmOldTrapString }
DESCRIPTION
"SVM error log trap for WARNING..
