LDAP and the Service Management Facility

The LDAP client service is managed by using the Service Management Facility. For an overview of SMF, refer to Chapter 2, Managing Services (Overview), in Managing Services and Faults in Oracle Solaris 11.1. Also refer to the svcadm(1M) and svcs(1) man pages for more details.

The following list provides a short overview of some of the important information needed to use the SMF service to administer the LDAP client service.
