I should have been more clear. The property group 'dcs' being of type
'dependency' and not 'application' is what is confusing svccfg and SMF's
inheritance. It seems that comes from
/var/svc/manifest/platform/sun4u/dscp.xml
...
<dependent
name='dcs'
grouping='optional_all'
restart_on='none'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/platform/sun4u/dcs:default' />
</dependent>
Are there standards on naming property groups? And if so, where?
Regardless, naming your config group the same name as your service is
asking for a heap of trouble.
