chkconfig utility in solaris 10

I want to use chkconfig utility to simplify service management on Solaris 10. However, I couldn't find this utility. I tried " man chkconfig", the system return as " No manual entry for chkconfig". So what does this mean and how to find this utility on solaris 10? Thanks for your help. Happy New Year.

# SMF - Service Management Facility. Basically, if you've gotten used to chkconfig on Red Hat or SuSE, you're gonna love SMF. On its most simple level, it means no more manually linking startup scripts into /etc/rcX.d/, similar to chkconfig, but really it's so much more. SMF brings automated service control, including restarts, parallelized system boot, and is the biggest bit of technology behind the marketing pitch of “Predictive Self Healing”. I played with it today porting a /etc/init.d style RC script for MySQL to SMF, and boy howdy SMF is a nice system. I like it. A lot.

Ok, being that man chkconfig turned up nothing, and you could'nt find a solaris package for it anywhere, you may have deduced or learned through some simple search that it is not something that is used in Solaris. It is in fact something that Redhat created based on a utility in Irix. I tried to point you in that direction by providing a link to something in Solaris that does exactly what chkconfig does, without making you feel like an a$$. However your remark shows that you are unappreciative and your original post shows that you did not do the prerequisite internet or forum search before posting such a silly question.

You may be right. I didn't follow your direction and didn't do the prerequisite forum search. But do I have the right to ask question instead of doing search by myself. Did my behavior affect your life? Furthermore, where can we do forum search for previous posts? If you don't want to help others, don't express yourself with impolite words.
