I'm working on the SMF conversion of acctadm, part of which is getting rid of /etc/init.d/acctadm and /etc/acctadm.conf by creating a transient service and moving the configuration data into the smf(5) repository.
Initial install would be easy since the service manifest inserts all required properties with default values into the repository at manifest import time. However, on upgrade I need to migrate any customizations to /etc/accadm.conf made by the administrator. Is there a current best practice to accomplish this? How can I access the repository during upgrade (if at all)? My preferred option would be to migrate the configuration in the postinstall script (having some sort of upgrade logic in acctadm(1M) seems yucky at best). Pointers to prior art much appreciated.
