I suspect the problem is how you are using pgrep(1) here. Please note,
that if you do "pgrep inadyn", it'll match not only process with name
inadyn, but also your SMF method script called inadyn-script (which is
running at the time you're doing the check). That's why the script says
that "inadyn is already running" even though you checked before that
inadyn is not running.
Please note the -x option for pgrep(1):
-x Considers only processes whose argument
string or executable file name exactly
matches the specified pattern to be matching
processes. The pattern match is considered
to be exact when all characters in the
process argument string or executable file
name match the pattern.
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Tomas
