Hi Keith,
Thanks for looking into this:
root@ # svcs -xv console-login
svc:/system/console-login:default (Console login)
State: offline since Tue Feb 26 01:11:08 2008
Reason: Service svc:/milestone/single-user:default has missing dependencies.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-GE
Path: svc:/system/console-login:default
svc:/system/utmp:default
svc:/milestone/sysconfig:default
svc:/milestone/single-user:default
See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M ttymon
Impact: This service is not running.
enabling/disabling things in the above list doesn't seem to change
anything.
From what i can tell from above output, console-login is dependent on
a milestone (single-user) which is offline because of missing
dependencies on something? Does ttymon play a role here?
