Explanation

Refer to step 3 below. After a typical software installation, there can be a half dozen or more processes that need to be started and stopped during system startup and shutdown. In addition, these processes may depend on each other and may need to be monitored and restarted if they fail. For each process, these are the logical steps that need to be done to incorporate these as services in SMF: 1.Create a service manifest file. 2.Create a methods script file to define the start, stop, and restart methods for the service. 3.Validate and import the service manifest using svccfg(1M). 4.Enable or start the service using svcadm(1M). 5.Verify the service is running using svcs(1).
