Hi, I here have the same behaviour as Prasath describes in my system (OS2009.06), despite the existance of the log file:
adumont$ svcs -l vbox fmri svc:/site/xvm/vbox:test01 name Sun xVM Virtualbox enabled false state disabled next_state none state_time Mon Jul 27 22:07:55 2009 restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/network:default (online) dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/local:default (online) dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/multi-user-server (online) fmri svc:/site/xvm/vbox:debian name Sun xVM Virtualbox enabled true state online next_state none state_time Mon Jul 27 22:08:40 2009 logfile /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox:debian.log restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/network:default (online) dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/local:default (online) dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/multi-user-server (online) But: adumont$ ls -al /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox\:* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 62761 2009-07-27 22:08 /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox:debian.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 869 2009-07-27 22:07 /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox:test01.log Both vbox svcs have already been enabled and disabled several times. vbox:debian is online, and svcs -l shows it's log, where as vbox:test01.log, is disabled and although the log actually exists, svcs -l won't show it.
