Thanks to everyone that responded! Of the options presented, I
believe that the best option that will have the longest
supportability across Solaris and OpenSolaris versions over time is...
"...create an rc script in the zone with the svcadm enable command
which removes itself after executing the svcadm command."

It should be possible to do it since the integration of PSARC
2008/015 svccfg refresh subcommand in nevada.
eg.
# svccfg
svc:> repository <zonepath>/etc/svc/repository.db
svc:> select <instance_FMRI>
svc:> setprop general/enabled = true
svc:> refresh
svc:> exit
I've never tried it though and I'm not sure you can
manipulate the 'general' property group offline.
Btw, to be able to do it, the NGZ must be running the
same OS as the Global Zone otherwise you could corrupt
the repository.

AFAIK the "upgrade" script is not an stable interface.
IMHO it's better to create an rc script in the zone with the svcadm
enable command which removes itself after executing the svcadm
command.

I would like to svcadm enable a service of a non-global zone

Is that possible? If so, how?
Thanks in advance,

You can cause it to become enabled on the next boot with:
echo "svcadm enable $fmri" >> $zonepath/root/var/svc/profile/upgrade
This will get processed when manifest-import runs early in the zone
boot process. I'm not so sure that this is considered to be an
interface, so it may break at any time. It is probably best to
ask on
smf-discuss if you care about the stability of this mechanism.
