Garrett,

We discussed 'uname -S' and 'hostname' during the design phase.
The consensus was those commands are not persistent across
reboots today and this project does not change that behavior.

system/identity:domain might be better named but that is
really out of scope for the project.  That to me seems like a
case for the Networking team to come up with a new SMF
service.

Thanks,

John

Presumably uname -S and "hostname" will be modified to to update the SMF
property as well as read it (likewise for "domainname"?)  Also, what
about sys-unconfig(1M)?  (Or has that already been obsoleted elsewhere?)

I wonder if system/identity:domain would better be named to reflect how
this is used, which is really only with NIS, right?  Perhaps this
property ought to belong to the NIS service instead of as a system wide
property.  (The nodename property seems more general purpose, however.)
