more work on grommit and an SMF manifest for mailman
August 14th, 2005 Stephen Lau
I’ve spent much of the day working on the new grommit box. Ran the big ’smpatch update’, got my BIND fix, and I seem to have all my non-web services/applications up and running. Getting mailman up and running was somewhat of a pain. I used it as a good exercise in writing an SMF manifest though. I ended up deriving one from the network/smtp:sendmail one… undoubtedly, it could be better, but here you go:
< ?xml version='1.0'?>
< !DOCTYPE service_bundle SYSTEM '/usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/service_bundle.dtd.1'>
<service_bundle type='manifest' name='export'>
<service name='network/mailman' type='service' version='0'>
<single_instance />
<dependency name='fs-local' grouping='require_all' restart_on='none' type='s
ervice'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/system/filesystem/local'/>
</dependency>
<dependency name='network-service' grouping='require_all' restart_on='none'
type='service'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/network/service'/>
</dependency>
<dependency name='name-services' grouping='require_all' restart_on='refresh'
type='service'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/milestone/name-services'/>
</dependency>
<dependency name='identity' grouping='optional_all' restart_on='refresh' typ
e='service'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/system/identity:domain'/>
</dependency>
<dependency name='system-log' grouping='optional_all' restart_on='none' type
='service'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/system/system-log'/>
</dependency>
<dependency name='sendmail' grouping='require_all' restart_on='none' type='s
ervice'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/network/smtp:sendmail'/>
</dependency>
<instance name='mailman' enabled='true'>
<dependent name='multi-user' restart_on='none' grouping='optional_all'>
<service_fmri value='svc:/milestone/multi-user'/>
</dependent>
<exec_method name='start' type='method' exec='/lib/svc/method/mailman star
t' timeout_seconds='120'>
<method_context />
</exec_method>
<exec_method name='stop' type='method' exec='/lib/svc/method/mailman stop
%{restarter/contract}' timeout_seconds='60'>
<method_context />
</exec_method>
<exec_method name='refresh' type='method' exec='/lib/svc/method/mailman re
start' timeout_seconds='60'>
<method_context />
</exec_method>
<property_group name='startd' type='framework'>
<propval name='ignore_error' type='astring' value='core,signal'/>
</property_group>
<property_group name='general' type='framework'>
<propval name='action_authorization' type='astring' value='solaris.smf.m
anage.mailman'/>
</property_group>
<template>
<common_name>
<loctext xml:lang='C'>GNU mailman mailing list manager</loctext>
</common_name>
</template>
</instance>
<stability value='Unstable'/>
</service>
</service_bundle>
the main things I have left to get running are all the web apps, specifically: the photo gallery, webmail, blogs, and mysql.

i should note that i copied the supplied /usr/local/mailman/scripts/mailman.sh to /lib/svc/method/mailman. no modifications needed.

What’s an SMF Manifest? I came here looking for “mailman smf” via google, and am looking for integration tools between mailman and Simple Machines Forum (http://www.simplemachines.org). I’m having a suspicion this isn’t what you’re talking about, but am still curious about what you ARE talking about.
Cheers,
Tobias

ah, yes. this SMF is definitely not what you’re looking for
I’m talking about “Service Management Facility”, a new way of managing services in the Solaris 10 (and beyond) Operating System. -

there really aren’t enough letters in the alphabet for all the acronyms we need in this world. Many thanks for the quick reply.
Cheers,
Tobias
