Since the vxconfigd was corrupted,  copy the file  from /sbin/vxconfigd.SunOS_5.9   (for Solaris 9) to /usr/sbin/vxconfigd.

Substitute the source file /sbin/vxconfigd.SunOS_5.10 if the system is running Solaris 10.

# cp /sbin/vxconfigd.SunOS_5.9  /usr/sbin/vxconfigd

Remove any files that might be in /etc/vx/reconfig.d/state.d

#rm /etc/vx/reconfig.d/state.d/*

Run vxdiskadm and choose option #2 to  encapsulate the boot disk.
