There's a bunch of reasons why we can drop to maintenance. The service
should have logged the reason to syslog (/var/adm/messages) though.
Apart from during service start/stop, at the moment the auto-snapshot
jobs run from a cron job as a non-root user, and as such, can't write to
the SMF logs.
It would be nice to be able to provide a message along with the call to
'svcadm mark maintenance <instance>' to explain why we're dropping the
service to maintenance.

There should be info in syslog.
