Operating Systems Solaris How to backup (create image) SunOS 5.10 sparc? Post 303013269 by hicksd8 on Monday 19th of February 2018 04:02:25 AM

I suspect the flar install routine is seeing the archive as 'busy' because it's already mounted. The flar recovery routine will try to mount the NFS disk itself. See this Oracle page:

Recovery Image Procedures - Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 Installation Guide: Flash Archives (Creation and Installation)

Otherwise, perhaps the archive is not as expected. What command did you use to create it?
