That's still a start method. The stdout/stderr of the start method will go to a log file that is listed in the output of svcs -xv <fmri>; each service gets its own logfile. It really helps to have error messages sent to stderr so SMF can capture them. (But do make sure to throttle error output so you don't fill the logfile with zillions of copies of the same error! syslog does that for you of course, but here you'd be logging directly to stderr in addition to syslog.)
