I work on the SAM-QFS product. We are going to deliver a version of our product to Open Solaris 2009.06. Our product requires an explicit license acceptance and we also have additional interactive scripts that, using SVR4 packaging, we perform at install time. My understanding is that at this time, there is no provision for either explicit license acceptance or interactive scripts in IPS.

I don't know to what extent other products may have similar requirements. I'd like to avoid duplication if possible.

One idea I have is to install a cookie file that is validated by our SMF service, and if needed, spit out a message that guides the administrator to run our install script. Once this script is run, it modifies (maybe deletes) the cookie file, thus allowing the service to proceed. Note that all our commands converge to a function that calls svcadm to enable our service if the service is not running.
