Product_sn  : 1112FMM0DR

Fault class : defect.sunos.smf.svc.maintenance
Affects     : svc:///system/auditd:default
                  faulted and taken out of service
Problem in  : "svc:/system/auditd:default" (svc:///system/auditd:default)
                  faulted and taken out of service

Description : Service svc:/system/auditd:default failed - a method is failing
              in a retryable manner but too often.  Refer to
              http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-YX for more information.

Response    : The service has been placed into the maintenance state.

Impact      : svc:/system/auditd:default is unavailable.

Action      : If the service corresponds to one of the configurable services
              on the appliance, check the service configuration and log files
              for any
              errors.  Correct the errors and restart the service.  If the
              service is an
              internal appliance service, mark the fault repaired.  If the
              problem persists,
              contact your service provider.


Cause


For appliance software versions prior to 2011.1.1.0 the auditd timeout was set too short for starting up the service.
See <Bug 6989912> - AK Server Layer auditd timeout needs to sync with ON

Solution


This was a known issue with appliance software versions prior to 2011.1.1.0.
For these versions the issue can be fixed by applying two workflows.
Please log a service request for obtaining the needed workflows and instructions on how to apply these.
Workflows available from the Amber Road Support Beehive wiki here
Alternatively upgrade to 2011.1.1.0.

If you see the problem on appliance code after 2011.1.1.0 the problem was most likely caused by DNS services not being available at the time auditd was started up.
Provided DNS services are now available it should be possible to clear the problem using the BUI:

Maintenance > Problems

Select the relevant problem for the auditd service failure and click "MARK REPAIRED"
