If the ILB service daemon can detect such fatal errors once it has daemonized, you can use the libscf function
smf_maintain_instance(ILB_FMRI, SMF_IMMEDIATE) (where ILB_FMRI points at the ILB service instance) ...to kill the associated running processes and put the instance into maintenance. If there are fatal conditions detectable before daemonizing, simply exit with errorcode 95 (SMF_EXIT_ERR_FATAL). Hope this helps, Alan
