The svcs -l command shows a long listing for each specified service instance including more detailed information about the instance state, paths to the log file and configuration files for the instance, dependency types, dependency restart attribute values, and dependency state. The following example shows that all of the required dependencies of this service instance are online. The one dependency that is disabled is an optional dependency. For information about dependency types and restart attribute values, see Showing Service Dependencies. In svcs -l output, states other than those described in Service States are possible for dependencies. See the svcs (1) man page for descriptions. The following example also shows that the specified service instance is temporarily enabled, is online, and the service is a contract type service. See Service Models for definitions of service types. If the state value has a trailing asterisk, for example offline*, then the instance is in transition, and the next state field shows a state value instead of none. The state_time is the time the instance entered the listed state.

Use the svcs -p command to show the process IDs and command names of processes started by a contract service instance. The net-snmp service manages the /usr/sbin/snmpd SNMP agent that collects information about a system through a set of Management Information Bases (MIBs).

Example 2-5 Showing a Contract Service Restarting Automatically After Process Stop
Contract service instances are automatically restarted if the contract empties. SMF also attempts to restart processes associated with a contract service instance as part of automatic recovery from hardware or software failure events. The following example shows that after the /usr/sbin/snmpd process is killed, it is automatically restarted with a new process ID. The net-snmp:default instance is still online and has a new start time.
