If a service has been compromised, the amount of damage that can be inflicted by the intruder will be minimized if the service's power is constrained to that of a more limited user. SMF concepts[edit]. With SMF, each service can have a set of defined states, allowing admins to control services in a consistent way based on their state. Instances: a service is a collection of configurations. Runlevel Process supervision Operating system service management .
One can have many instances of a defined service, such as multiple webservers listening on different ports referencing different WWW root directories. A typical system could have dozens of configuration files, and configuration could involve various methods, including editing shell scripts. References[edit]. Dependency order. They can be defined to have special states that allow finer control and permit monitoring and probing for diagnosing software failures, rather than having the administrator or dedicated "restarter" modules kill and restart the service as before.[2]. Even higher level functions can be services, such as specific databases for e-commerce, finance, manufacturing control, etc. ^ Jonathan Adams, David Bustos, Stephen Hahn, David Powell, and Liane Praza, "Solaris Service Management Facility: Modern System Startup and Administration", in Proceedings of LISA '05: Nineteenth Systems Administration Conference, (San Diego, CA: USENIX Association, December 2005), 226-235.
