You need a running apmd(8) to be able to use `zzz' or `ZZZ', as
explained in the man page for apm(8) (zzz and ZZZ are just hard links to
apm):
 
``apm communicates with the Advanced Power Management daemon, apmd(8),
making requests of it for current power status or to place the system
into a suspend or stand-by state.''

Try again after issuing 

# rcctl -f start apmd

or, if you want to enable apmd(8) permanently:

# rcctl enable apmd
# rcctl start apmd
