Hello All,
I am new to this forum, but getting rather frustrated and thought I'd see if any of you could point me in the right direction.
I have just loaded Solaris 10 on my local workstation and I'm trying to get it set up. I have a simple script that I did have set up in my Solaris 9 inittab file to respawn. This script essentially kept track of my filesystem size and sent me an email if any specified filesystem went over a defined limit. It worked great for me in my Sol9 environment.
I have been trying to create a service (manifest?) for this same script, and I am clearly doing something wrong because when I import/enable the xml file, the service runs (I can see the process consistantly running, exiting, restarting), but the service state is offline.
I confess, this is my first attempt at a service script...and I can't seem to find much on-line info about the values - I have essentially just copied bits and pieces from other service xml files.
Please take a look and let me know if you see anything obviously wrong.
# svccfg import fscheck.xml
# svcs -a |grep fscheck
offline* 12:53:25 svc:/site/fscheck:default
# svcs -xv fscheck
svc:/site/fscheck:default (?)
State: offline since Tue Jul 24 12:53:25 2007
Reason: Start method is running.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-C4
See: /var/svc/log/site-fscheck:default.log
Impact: This service is not running.
