The service configuration repository can only be manipulated or queried by using SMF interfaces. Use the svcs, svcprop, svcadm, and svccfg commands or the Service Configuration Facility library functions listed in the libscf (3LIB) man page. You can read and write property values and show property values in specified layers and snapshots. For information about layers, see Repository Layers. For information about snapshots, see Repository Snapshots. You can show only the properties of the selected service instance or parent service, or you can show a composed view of properties. In a composed view, both properties set on the parent service and properties set on the service instance are shown; values shown are the values set on the service instance.
