R3trans -d fails with invalid username/password,sapinst fail

We are installing solution manager 7.1, in a distributed environment
(DB on SUN SPARC, and CI on SUN Solaris X86). The DB Instance
installation completed successfully.

While installing the CI, I encountered the following error:

ERROR 2011-11-01 14:09:53.970
CJS-30149 ABAP processes of instance SLM/DVEBMGS63 [ABAP: UNKNOWN] did
not start after 10:00 minutes. Giving up.

When I tried R3trans -d either from the DB Host or from the CI Host,
we are encountering 1017 invalid username/password error. I went
through many SAP notes including 400241 and followed it. I reset the
password using brconnect, as well as manually inserting into the
OPS$ SLMADM.SAPUSER table values for SAPSLM. Nothing worked.

I followed OSS note 361641 (UNIX) to setup OPS$ mechanism.
These are a few activities which I performed.

OPS$ SAPSLM.SAPUSER entries deleted and recreated.
OPS$ SAPSLM.SAPUSER table dropped and recreated.
password for SAPSLM reset using brconnect, and also at sql prompt.

listener.ora, tnsnames.ora verified. ORACLE_HOME verified, Listener
starts correctly.

Our /sapmnt/SLM and the /sapmnt/SLM/exe directory is common on both the
DB and the CI hosts. Will this cause any issue as the executables in
exe directory are not compatible with both SUN 64, and SUN 86
architectures.

The following is the content of trans.log on CI Host
