Yes, nothing will be mounted when you have booted from a CD, but to work on SVM metadevices you need to have metadbs patched in the kernel and they won't be patched when you have booted from a CD, hence you can't work on them.
Why are you booting with CD to work on SVM, why can't just boot with a disk and then play around.

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..
This matches 'WARNING: md:'"
::= 2
svmPanicTrap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE sunSVM
