disable successfully then start the service.

Any help will be appreciated.

Maybe you could test setting the start command of that service
explicitly to be:

 /usr/sbin/svcadm disable myservice &&  /usr/sbin/svcadm enable
myservice

Thanks a lot Mohamed

but there is changes that after enabling/disabling the service, it may
go to maintenance state.. how do we check the status of the service
and take appropriate action accordingly.

Thanks

Why would you like to do this? With the following service provider (as a sample)
openvpn would be restarted if the service is in a maintenance state (if
possible) or disabled. Or do I miss your point?

service { ''openvpn'':
    ensure    => running,
    provider  => smf,
    enable    => true,
    require   =>
File[''/var/svc/manifest/application/network/openvpn.xml''],
    subscribe => File[''/etc/openvpn/server.conf''],
    manifest  =>
''/var/svc/manifest/application/network/openvpn.xml'',
}

HTH.

Sorry, I know this is an old posting, that I''m trying to resurrect.

So I have a module for solaris similar to what''s described below for
the
system-log service.  Basically when we load a server, system-log is already 
enabled with a stock /etc/syslog.conf file.  Using the openvpn example 
below, I''ve noticed that when my module pushes a new syslog.conf file -
say
for remote logging - the puppet agent does not restart the smf service.

Can that be forced?  I thought the subscribe would make that happen.  I 
have have hasrestart => true as well, but updating the file does not force 
the service to restart.

Thanks.
