Change run level at boot
for solaris 11, how does one change the run level at boot from 3 to 2?
i checked "/etc/inittab" file where i usually change it in other *nix but it seems solaris is not using it.

Hi,

You need to change the smf man 5 smf to take the system to;

milestone/multi-user:default

Instead of;

milestone/multi-user-server:default

Or you can just use svcadm for a temporary change or svccfg to make the change persist.
