Gary, I don't know of any guidlines per se. Perhaps these URLs may be of some help. http://blogs.sun.com/lianep/entry/smf_5_fault_retry_models http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/sdev_intro.jsp The svc.startd(1M) man page also mentions transient services, but I don't think that it will tell you anything that you don't already know. If you have specific questions for your project, we'll try to answer them on this alias. tom
