Perhaps you can tell us more, what process, what you did, etc.

I don't think you can do this. SMF uses contract to monitor service processes and their exits. I think Liane wrote somewhere (here? blog?) that you need to have a contract ID before SMF starts up your service and there's no way SMF can grab a service that's been started manually and make a contract for it. > 2) Tell if the process is being monitored still and which PID it is watching? svcs -p <service> to see which processes are part of the service.
