[smf-discuss] scf_write_propvec error

[Margot Hackett Miller]

Able to successfully use scf_read_propvec to read properties from
a test service.

However, get error "error: entity not found" when trying to write
out a property vector.

$ ./smf_routines2y
state is online
error: entity not found
$ $ svcprop -v margot2 | grep valueofpig
config_params/valueofpig astring huge
$

Below is a stripped down test program.   I have been staring at awhile
and no obvious errors jump up at me.

Thanks,
Margot
