As posted on :http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/7.2+VirtualBox ,
illumos implemented *SMAP* functions but VirtualBox build for Solaris 
(that is working under Openindiana) does not includes them.
see Wiki notice about setting needed:
"Workaround is to put: *set disable_smap=1 *in */etc/system* and reboot, 
before starting VirtualBox", together with "*|touch /etc/vboxinst_vboxflt"

|*Also check weither you are running newest hipster, for it migrated 
form /hipster-2015 to /hipster:
http://www.openindiana.org/2016/04/19/openindiana-hipster-repository-location-has-been-changed/
(pkg set-publisher -G http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster-2015 -g 
http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster openindiana.org)

Also notice that 'entire' incorporation have as dependencies: 
osnet-incorporation (illumos) and usenet-incorporation (everything elese 
in OI),
and still there is no versioned , say numbered 'hipster-incorporation' 
that would have those 2 as dependencies.
So when reporting, you need to state both isnet-incorporation and usenet 
incorporation FMRI,
because they change, while 'entire' number may be still not changing 
while osnet and userland can change every day.
That is until hipster-incorporation is possibly made available in the 
future to elegantly state hipster update state/snapshot as you tried to.
