net-snmp - restarting too quickly issue

on my sol10x86 10/08 box, i needed to remove the native snmp agent (sma) for net-snmp-5.4.2.1. once net-snmp was configured and installed, i reconfigured the appropriate files of smf and attempted to restart. service was put into maintenance mode:

Code:
[ Sep  9 20:54:33 Enabled. ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:33 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/svc-sma") ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:33 Method "start" exited with status 0 ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:34 Stopping because process dumped core. ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:34 Executing stop method (:kill) ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:34 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/svc-sma") ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:34 Method "start" exited with status 0 ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:35 Stopping because process dumped core. ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:35 Executing stop method (:kill) ]
...
[ Sep  9 20:54:41 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/svc-sma") ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:41 Method "start" exited with status 0 ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:41 Stopping because process dumped core. ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:41 Executing stop method (:kill) ]
[ Sep  9 20:54:41 Restarting too quickly, changing state to maintenance ]

so basically i get the error: "Reason: Restarting too quickly." from svcs -x.

anyone have any ideas what to check or look for?

i can run snmpd without any issues. again, i just can't get smf to manage it.

"Stopping because process dumped core."

I honestly recommend reverting the SMF files back to normal and either writing a new one or using an rc script in rc3.d
