OpenIndiana Distribution

Hi,

I am using latest /hipster distribution:

SunOS Release 5.11 Version illumos-2810337 64-bit

and tried to replace system-log:default with system-log:rsyslog service:

$ svcs -a | grep system-log
disabled       10:45:23 svc:/system/system-log:default
online         10:46:54 svc:/system/system-log:rsyslog

$ pfexec svcadm restart system-log:rsyslog

service goes to maintenance, but process still runs:

$ ps -ef | grep rsyslog[d]
  global     root  2749     1   0 11:10:39 ?           0:00 /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslogd -c4

$ svcs -xv
svc:/system/system-log:rsyslog (reliable and extended system log daemon)
 State: maintenance since September 17, 2013 11:17:56 AM CEST
Reason: Restarting too quickly.
   See: http://illumos.org/msg/SMF-8000-L5
   See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M rsyslogd
   See: /var/svc/log/system-system-log:rsyslog.log
Impact: This service is not running.

and log shows just nothing:

$ tail -10 /var/svc/log/system-system-log:rsyslog.log
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Method property group 'stop' is not present. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/rsyslog"). ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Method "start" exited with status 0. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Stopping because all processes in service exited. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Method property group 'stop' is not present. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/rsyslog"). ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Method "start" exited with status 0. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Stopping because all processes in service exited. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Method property group 'stop' is not present. ]
[ Sep 17 11:17:56 Restarting too quickly, changing state to maintenance. ]

So, if I kill ("stop") process, then enable works:

$ pfexec kill -9 $(ps -ef | grep rsyslog[d] | awk '{print $3}')
$ pfexec svcadm clear rsyslog
$ svcs -xv
$ ps -ef | grep rsyslog[d]
  global     root  2913     1   0 11:21:55 ?           0:00 /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslogd -c4

So, looks like BOTH manifest and method files are not supporting all actions, just start (see attachment).

I guess it should be fixed, because all other SMF services works that way (and it went to maintenance mode silently).

Regards.
