SMF is actually well documented, but you do have to jump around from
man page to man page. Start with `man smf'. There are also lots of
examples to follow, both of manifests and methods. They are all text
files.
Ok, so here's a quasi-recent example of a difficulty I've encountered trying to
use SMF.

XML is as simple as it can get, because it's just a *grammar*.
The hard part here is the *contents*, i.e, the SMF definitions.
I'd recommend using the facilities of SMF, rather than trying to do it
all outside of SMF. These facilities are extensive and complete.
You say SMF has capabilities that make this all go away.

If you don't understand SMF (which is a bit clumsy, but indeed has
all what you want), use this little generator, it will do the hard
work for you:

And here's another one for local use:

Oracle has svcbundle in Solaris 11.1:
