Talk:SMF for Solaris 10

Unfortunately, this doesn't really show you how to detect whether or not a system is using SMF for that particular application. Depending on the sub-revision (and patch level) of your Solaris 10 installation, the service could be managed by a legacy run script or it could be SMF managed. The Sun SNMP daemon (SMA) is a good example of this. In Solaris 10 06/06, it's an init script. In 11/06, it's an SMF service. Further complicating matters is that it's partner in crime, snmpdx, is SMF managed in both 06/06 and 11/06.

You can check to see if it's an SMF service by looking for the service manifest file in the /var/svc/manifest tree, but this really calls out for a module to detect what services available to control. --Gadavis 17:07, 12 July 2007 (EDT)
