As I said, the /usr files (as supplied on the distribution) are quite critical. These normally sit in /usr whereas /usr/local normally contains stuff added locally (eg, third party packages and locally compiled packages).
I suggest that you look at your hard disk root filesystem and list the /usr directory to see what's there. (Compare it roughly with another running server).
Boot from cd and mount your hard disk root filesystem under /a
Then list /a/usr
What's there? If that directory is empty then it almost certainly needs the slice 3 mounted there. If it contains the normal /usr stuff, then perhaps slice 3 does indeed contain only 'local' stuff that it mounted under /usr/local as per the current vfstab.
I'm also concerned about slices 6 & 7 on that VTOC but be careful editing the VTOC. You'd need to boot from cd and run 'format'. Edit slices 6 & 7 in turn and enter zeros for the start and size parameters to remove these slice configs, and then write the modified label back. Be careful to fully record what was there before you start in case it goes wrong.
However, let's concentrate on /usr first.

leaveok
clearok(3XCURSES) X/Open Curses Library Functions clearok(3XCURSES)
NAME
clearok, idlok, leaveok, scrollok, setscrreg, wsetscrreg - terminal output control functions
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib
-R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]
c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]
#include <curses.h>
int clearok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
int idlok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
int leaveok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
int scrollok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
int setscrreg(int top, int bot);
int wsetscrreg(WINDOW *win, int top, int bot);
DESCRIPTION
These functions set options that deal with the output within Curses functions.
The clearok() function assigns the value of bf to an internal flag in the specified window that governs clearing of the screen during a
refresh. If, during a refresh operation on the specified window, the flag in curscr is TRUE or the flag in the specified window is TRUE,
clearok() clears the screen, redraws it in its entirety, and sets the flag to FALSE in curscr and in the specified window. The initial
state is unspecified
The idlok() function specifies whether the implementation may use the hardware insert-line, delete-line, and scroll features of terminals
so equipped. If bf is TRUE, use of these features is enabled. If bf is FALSE, use of these features is disabled and lines are instead
redrawn as required. The initial state is FALSE.
The leaveok() function controls the cursor position after a refresh operation. If bf is TRUE, refresh operations on the specified window
may leave the terminal's cursor at an arbitrary position. If bf is FALSE, then at the end of any refresh operation, the terminal's cursor
is positioned at the cursor position contained in the specified window. The initial state is FALSE.
The scrollok() function controls the use of scrolling.If bf is TRUE, then scrolling is enabled for the specified window. If bf is FALSE,
scrolling is disabled for the specified window. The initial state is FALSE.
The setscrreg() and wsetscrreg() functions define a software scrolling region in the current or specified window. The top and bottom argu-
ments are the line numbers of the first and last line defining the scrolling region. (Line 0 is the top line of the window.) If this option
and scrollok() are enabled, an attempt to move off the last line of the margin causes all lines in the scrolling region to scroll one line
in the direction of the first line. Only characters in the window are scrolled. If a software scrolling region is set and scrollok() is not
enabled, an attempt to move off the last line of the margin does not reposition any lines in the scrolling region.
PARAMETERS
win Is a pointer to a window.
bf Is a Boolean expression.
top Is the top line of the scrolling region (top of the window is line 0).
bot Is the bottom line of the scrolling region (top of the window is line 0).
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the setscrreg() and wsetscrreg() functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.
The other functions always return OK.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
USAGE
The only reason to enable the idlok() feature is to use scrolling to achieve the visual effect of motion of a partial window, such as for
a screen editor. In other cases, the feature can be visually annoying.
The leaveok() option provides greater efficiency for applications that do not use the cursor.
