SSH keeps going into maintenance mode

1974988Jan 28 2014 — edited Feb 18 2014

Hello to all,

I got this solaris 11 system with the SSHD daemond properly working but the time to prompt the password was taking too long, so i make a change in the configuration file and since then all went wrong.

I lost the sshd connection and when i login by console the rollback the change the sshd daemons doesn't start.

These are my system configuration and error logs:

root@snr2db01:/tmp/ssh# uname -a

SunOS snr2db01.snr.local 5.11 11.1 i86pc i386 i86pc

root@snr2db01:/tmp/ssh# svcs -xv status ssh

svc:/network/nfs/status:default (NFS status monitor)

State: online since October  9, 2013 04:13:45 PM COT

   See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M statd

   See: /var/svc/log/network-nfs-status:default.log

Impact: None.

svc:/network/ssh:default (SSH server)

State: maintenance since January 28, 2014 09:16:45 AM COT

Reason: Restarting too quickly.

   See: http://support.oracle.com/msg/SMF-8000-L5

   See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M sshd

   See: /var/svc/log/network-ssh:default.log

Impact: This service is not running.
