Hi,

I have question regarding the interaction of SMF and zones, and would like 
to get some help here:

As part of my project (the Clearview vanity naming project), I added a 
service network/linkmgmt to manage datalinks, and I changed manifest of two 
services (device-local and network/physical) to make them depends on the new 
service. Note that this linkmgmt service is only needed in the global zone.

It works fine on the global zone. But in a local zone, network/physical 
failed to start because linkmgmt is not correctly started:

# svcs -l network/physical
fmri         svc:/network/physical:default
name         physical network interfaces
enabled      true
state        offline
next_state   none
state_time   Tue Apr 17 02:46:17 2007
restarter    svc:/system/svc/restarter:default
dependency   require_all/none svc:/network/loopback (online)
dependency   require_all/restart svc:/network/linkmgmtd (maintenance)

But how can I indicate that to not start linkmgmt in a local zone, and the 
two above services doesn't have to check the dependency on it?

Thanks
- Cathy
