       Ok, I'm a newbee on Solaris, but why can't something like this be
possible, have a property like this

root at live-dfs-2:~# svccfg -s network/http:lighttpd14 listprop
general/fd_limit
general/fd_limit              count    8192

      And this would set this service up with this parameter
max-file-descriptor=8192

        Setting resource limits on services like http are a common
requirement. If there
is an alternative to editing the method script and simply adding "ulimit
-n 8192"
then perhaps a property is needed?

      Is the above possible? How do I implement it?

   I found reference to the following for a printer service


# svccfg
svc:> select svc:/application/print/server
svc:/application/print/server> setprop lpsched/num_filters = count: 1
svc:/application/print/server> setprop lpsched/num_notifiers = count: 1
svc:/application/print/server> setprop lpsched/fd_limit = count: 4096
svc:/application/print/server> setprop lpsched/reserved_fds = count: 2
svc:/application/print/server> quit

       I get complaint about no such property

svccfg: No such property group "method_context"

         Need to create a property group?

      Must be an easier way? Setting max fd's is a common need....
I want to do something like this

    svccfg -s network/http:lighttpd14  setprop general/fd_limit = count: 8192

      possible? How?
