admin
| Any changes that are made by using the SMF commands or library interfaces, by an administrator or by an application. The admin layer also includes any changes that are made by importing a manifest or applying a profile from a non-standard location. See Importing and Applying Manifests and https://dilos-dev.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DS/pages/3286925360/Service+Configuration+Repository#Importing-and-Applying-Manifests-and-Profiles for caution about the use of non-standard locations. |
site-profile
| Any values from profile files in the /etc/svc/profile/site directory or the legacy /etc/svc/profile/site.xml and /var/svc/profile/site.xml profiles. Note that /var/svc/profile is deprecated as a standard location and should not be used for new profiles. |
system-profile
| Any values from the /etc/svc/profile/generic.xml and /etc/svc/profile/platform.xml system profiles. |
manifest
| Values from manifests in the /lib/svc/manifest and /var/svc/manifest directories. Note that /var/svc/manifest is deprecated as a standard location and should not be used for new manifests. |

When you restart the manifest-import service, manifests in standard locations are imported and profiles in standard locations are applied if they are new or changed. See Service Bundles for manifest and profile standard locations. If importing a manifest or applying a profile results in the service being started or stopped, the appropriate method is executed if one exists.
