Sorry, my Solaris is very rusty.

You need to add a service descriptor to the DUA profile if you haven't
already, something like:

serviceSearchDescriptor: netgroup:cn=ng,cn=compat,dc=example,dc=com

Then re-init the client.

getent is still not going to work but ldaplist will:

# ldaplist netgroup

There don't seem to be any user-land tools to query netgroups and further investigation turned up an issue with OpenLDAP. It seems the built-in Solaris 10 ldap client expects schema RFC2307bis and not the OpenLDAP standard RFC2307 (explanation here http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200501/msg00309.html). does anyone know if this issue applies to IPA?  Or how I check?

The common solution when using the old SunOne directory server was to pass the ldapclient (command line ldap configuration tool) an option like "passwd:ou=people,o=myorg,c=de?one?(isMemberof=cn=unixadmins,ou=groups,o=myorg,c=de)" (from here https://community.oracle.com/thread/2014224?start=0&tstart=0)  which is supposed to restrict account checking to only people in ou=people,p=myorg,c=de who are also members of cn=unixadmins,ou=groups,o=myorg,c=de. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work in IPA, first of all because there is no "isMemberof" attribute to a user, but also doesn't work on other attributes like uid or uidNumber. One possible explanation I've found is that these attributes are not indexed, but I have no idea if this is correct or how to add them to be indexed.
