I'm not sure that I fully understand your problem, so I need some more
information. Is the dependent service going into maintenance because the
background process is not yet ready to perform its services? The output of
svcs -xl might be helpful. Also any messages in the dependent service's
log file that say why it is going into maintenance would be helpful.
In general using sleeps in a case like this tends to be a problem. You
never know for sure how long you need to wait. It would be better to come
up with a method to directly determine when the background process is ready
to do its job. Do you know for sure that the background process is ready
after 10 seconds?
SMF will not put the ocssd service in the online state until your script
exits. You may want to look into why the background process is taking so
long to become available.
