Why does my Solaris 11.4 server require grub username/password every reboot now?

in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 7 commentsAnswered

I have recently patched my Solaris 11.4 servers with the SRU. After patches, we reboot to apply the new boot environment. Everything seemed to go pretty standard.
That was until last night when we rebooted a server. It didn't come up right away, so I got on the console and it was asking for the grub username/password. After entering the info, it booted right up as usual. But now, every time the server boots it asks for the name/pass. This is also happening with other servers I've tested so far.
Was this a change in a recent patch?

Thanks in advance!
