  <title>Oracle Solaris: Starting the Watchdog Service With SMF</title>
  
  <body>
    <p>On Oracle Solaris hosts, the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> watchdog service daemon is
      integrated into the SMF framework. You can change the parameters, but do not have to if the defaults already match
      your needs: </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">svccfg -s svc:/application/virtualbox/balloonctrl:default setprop \
  config/balloon_interval=10000
svccfg -s svc:/application/virtualbox/balloonctrl:default setprop \
config/balloon_safetymargin=134217728</pre>
    <p><xref href="vboxwatchdog-linux.dita#vboxwatchdog-linux/table-vboxwatchdog-config-params"/> also applies
        for Oracle Solaris. The parameter names must be changed to
        lowercase and a prefix of <codeph>config/</codeph> has to be
        added. For example: <codeph>config/user</codeph> or
        <codeph>config/balloon_safetymargin</codeph>. If you made any
        change, do not forget to run the following command to put the
        changes into effect immediately:
      </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">svcadm refresh svc:/application/virtualbox/balloonctrl:default</pre>
    <p>If you forget the above command then the previous settings will be used when enabling the service. Check the
      current property settings with the following command: </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">svcprop -p config svc:/application/virtualbox/balloonctrl:default</pre>
    <p>When everything is configured correctly you can start the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>
      watchdog service with the following command: </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">svcadm enable svc:/application/virtualbox/balloonctrl:default</pre>
    <p>For more information about SMF, please refer to the Oracle Solaris documentation. </p>
