The behavior should be put a manifest or profile in a standard location, and
then restart the manifest-import service to manage your files that you are putting
in the standard location.

The problem is that the restart of manifest-import is an asynchronous operation that you would then have to monitor to know that it was complete. This is not ideal, and there is a bug filed to provide a synchronous restart so that the proper action can be taken, 6370885. The simplest fix in this case is to set the environment variable because this is what you will gain once the bug is fixed and the manifest-import
service is restarted.

Hi Ginnie,

if I understand the underlying problem correctly, it is caused by the fact that 'svccfg apply' does not store hashes for profiles applied. Thus, if such profile is then later removed, manifest import does not recognize that and
doesn't remove related configuration from site-profile layer unless
there is another change in site profiles which has its has recorded in smf.

If my understanding is correct, then I am wondering if this behavior is intentional
or if it's a bug, as such behavior is apparently confusing.
Pulling Sean into the loop who may shed more light on this aspect.

Thank you,
Jan
