Are you trying to register a new service? If so, my understanding is that svd.configd needs to have been launched at system startup.
So, while checking for svcadm will tell you if the system was built with sfw, it will not let you know if you can register a new service. (Feel free to correct my understanding, as I am still absorbing all the changes in S10+). psck=svc.configd;echo -e "$psck is \c";pgrep $psck >/dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo running; else echo not running 1; fi If you need to actually start or stop the svc you need to replace also check for svc.startd -brian
