Hi Liane, I like the output of svcs -l. I think you decision to not expand the method tokens is correct.
I'm less thrilled by your decision to separate method from start|stop with a space. It makes it harder to parse the output of svcs through awk or perl. Most lines in svcs -l start with one keyword and the rest of the line consists of the value of the keyword: e.g. fmri svc:/network/ssh:default contract_id 121 state_time Thu Sep 20 11:14:35 2007 Even though the dependencies also use a three columns output I think it would be easier (parsable) when the separator would be a _ (underscore) like: method_inetd_start /usr/sbin/in.telnetd method_start /lib/svc/method/smtp-sendmail start Greetings, Peter This message posted from opensolaris.org
