It can:
. /lib/svc/share/smf_include.sh
...
if $failed; then
exit $SMF_EXIT_ERR_FATAL
fi
If it's a configuration problem, SMF_EXIT_ERR_CONFIG is a better exit code.
These don't disable the service; they put it into maintenance, so that an
administrator will notice the problem.
See smf_method(5) for full details.
