Thanks all for the replies, however, I had checked my oldest (2 weeks old) snapshot before posting here, I couldn't see that directory in the snapshot either.
The filer is due for an upgrade in about 2 weeks time, just want to know whether this(missing file/directory) will affect the normal functioning of the system, so far nobody complained.
I am the only one who manages the filers here and I have not made any changes except for setting "nfs.mountd.trace" to "on" for a brief period last week.
The system seems to be working fine and the commands ndmpd,ndmpcopy are available, though I don't use them currently.

Hi LOhit
Sounds like the filer was zeroed and set up without
extracting all the supporting files, or booted from a new kernel that doesn't
match the ONTAP files installed, or somebody deleted some stuff under
/etc. You can check /etc/.snapshot to see if/when /etc/boot last
existed. You need to refer to the upgrade docs and do a "software install"
or use NFS or CIFS to extract the appropriate setup.exe /
tarball.
You may also notice certain commands are missing, like
ndmpd, ndmcopy and a handful of others (do ? from the command line and see if
those commands are there).
Make sure the version of ONTAP you extract matches the
current running version. Do a version and version -b and make sure they
all match.
Share and enjoy!

Subject: Unable to open function name/address
mapping file
Hello All,
I have been getting this warning message on the
console since past 4 days. Have you seen this before by any chance?
I am
running 7.2.3 on a 3020 and no changes were made in the recent past, this
message starting appearing all of a sudden. BTW, there is no directory called
"boot" in "/etc".
