Dickson, would you know why even though we manually disabled rpc/meta: shows up as uninitialized? |
Details
Based on the linked articles this is a dependency issue.
| Info |
|---|
When I talk about states I am referring to the STATE as represented when running the svcs -a command. A service can be in the following states, online, offline, uninitialized and disabled. |
The mdmonitor daemon is needed to sync the meta devices at system start up. If svc:/system/mdmonitor is not running, the devices come into maintenance state.
The cause according to Engle Victor's postdisabledpost is an "optional_all" dependency of svc:/network/rpc/meta. "optional_all" allows mdmonitord to start if svc:/network/rpc/meta is disabled but not if it is in the offline state or in our case uninitialized. As are result, svc:/system/mdmonitor is put into the offline state.
svc:/network/prc/meta comes up offline because of its "require_all" dependency on svc:/network/rpcbind which may be disabled or offline or in our case, uninitialized.
