Adding dependency on another service

For example mount NFS after ZFS:

svccfg -s svc:/network/nfs/client addpg filesystem-local dependency
svccfg -s svc:/network/nfs/client setprop filesystem-local/grouping = astring: require_all                      
svccfg -s svc:/network/nfs/client setprop filesystem-local/entities = fmri: svc:/system/filesystem/local:default
svccfg -s svc:/network/nfs/client setprop filesystem-local/restart_on = astring: none 
svccfg -s svc:/network/nfs/client setprop filesystem-local/type = astring: service

Setting multiple parameters to environment variables

1. The goal:

• Setting -Xmx from 512m to 2G

The problem:

# svccfg -s svc:/cms/web:tomcat setenv -m start CATALINA_OPTS '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx2G -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9004 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dorg.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK=true -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=tomcat.server.de'
svccfg: Syntax error.

So you have to set the complete environment this way:

• Get the complete environment:

# svccfg -s svc:/cms/web:tomcat listprop method_context/environment
method_context/environment  astring  "PATH=/usr/jdk/latest/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" "LC_CTYPE=de_DE.ISO8859-15@euro" "JAVA_OPTS=-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.server.de -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Djava.awt.headless=true" "JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk/latest" "CATALINA_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx512m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9004 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dorg.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK=true -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=tomcat.server.de"

• Set the complete (modified) environment:

# svccfg -s svc:/cms/web:tomcat setprop method_context/environment = astring: '("PATH=/usr/jdk/latest/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" "LC_CTYPE=de_DE.ISO8859-15@euro" "JAVA_OPTS=-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.server.de -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Djava.awt.headless=true" "JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk/latest" "CATALINA_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx2G -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9004 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dorg.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK=true -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=tomcat.server.de")'
# svcadm refresh svc:/cms/web:tomcat

• Check it with:

# svccfg -s svc:/cms/web:tomcat listprop method_context/environment
