RE:  SMF problems in V3 posted by Jens Elkner

The problem I have is that I am an expert in Java and many other things but I don't have years and years of Solaris Sys Admin experience as the author obviously does.  Here in the development team we are all minor System Administrators for our own machines.  The author is clearly a *real* System Administrator for multiple users.  His years of experience and hard-won common sense is golden.  He has some excellent ideas for improvements that could be introduced in 3.1  I have copied out the SMF comments and turn them into a bug in Issue Tracker.  SMF implementation is imperfect but useful. If I can setup communications with the author for feedback/questions etc.  then we have an excellent shot at improving SMF support in 3.1.  I suspect that I could implement all the suggested improvements rather quickly (1-2 weeks?)


The comments about create-service and SMF are huge (and thorough).  I don't want to copy them here.  Please refer to the Issue [1] for the full text...
