Solution

The daemon detects a deprecated Array Support Library (ASL) package installed on the system.
Beginning in version 5.0, all known ASL's  on the release date are already included in the VRTSvxvm package.
 
Occasionally, support for a new array may be added in the form of an ASL package.
In the following message, the problem library is libhtcusp.so 
V-5-1-4838 ddl_search_and_place: Library libhtcusp.so validation fails
 
These libraries are located in  /etc/vx/lib/discovery.d.
 
To determine which package is using that library, use the following pkgchk command and provide the full path name of the library. 
# pkgchk -l -p /etc/vx/lib/discovery.d/libhtcusp.so
Pathname: /etc/vx/lib/discovery.d/libhtcusp.so
Type: regular file
Expected mode: 0775
Expected owner: root
Expected group: sys
Expected file size (bytes): 19868
Expected sum(1) of contents: 29819
Expected last modification: Aug 05 07:43:41 PM 2004
Referenced by the following packages:
       HTC-USP
Current status: installed
 
Remove the duplicate ASL as you no logner need this ASL. 
Remove the old ASL package:
# pkgrm HTC-USP
 
Update Volume Manager and re-scan the devices:
# vxdctl enable
 
To verify existing ASL packages and its version:
# vxddladm listsupport all
# vxddladm listversion all
