[smf-discuss] making service offline

[Janardhan Molumuri]

I am trying to make a non-transient service offline. 

I wrote an SMF and using a method to start/stop the service. In the method 
based on a condition I am starting the service if not don't start and exiting. 

I tried using the exit code $SMF_EXIT_MON_OFFLINE but the service goes into  
maintenance state.

     SMF_EXIT_MON_OFFLINE   98          Monitor   assesses    service
                                        instance   as  non-responsive
                                        and effectively offline.

Any ideas?
