SERVICE MANAGEMENT
==================

With Illumos, it is forked from the now-defunct OpenSolaris, which was essentially an open-source
version of Solaris 10 by Sun Microsystems. Sun's successor, Oracle, still maintains documentation
for Solaris 11, which is relatively the same as before, so almost all of the documentation applies
to Illumos distributions.

A quick rundown of SMF, the Service Management Framework, is the following:

SMF, like IPS, uses FMRIs; you may view these with the "svcs" command to see what is enabled
and disabled.

To enable/disable a service, you may type:
sudo svcadm enable <FMRI>
sudo svcadm disable <FMRI>

To clear a failed service from its maintenance state (if you fix the issue but the service won't start):
sudo svcadm clear <FMRI>

To import/export and modify service manifests, you may read the documentation on "svccfg" (not covered here).
