 This is important role of self healing but every solaris beginner have
 difficulty in input command by keyboard. if user don't familiar with
 keyboard, they want GUI program.
 So I propose this project
 Make GUI SMF program!!

 Have a nice day

Look at the visual panels project, under Destop I believe.

  Though the ultimate goal is to do a lot more, the prototype for the
  Visual Panels project (screenshots, demo, and source at

http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/vpanels/

  ) currently contains a basic SMF GUI.  Please check it out and let us
  know what you think.

 How about to extent gnome-system-tools  system-tools-backends which
 been integrated into NexentaOS recently? 

AFAIK we're working on that right now as part of our gnome-system-tools
port for Vermillion-- I believe we've made the g-s-t Services dialog use
SMF.  This isn't a replacement for the vpanels project, but something
quick and simple that people can use now... well, Real Soon Now.

Cheeri,
Calum.

How about to extent gnome-system-tools  system-tools-backends which
been integrated into NexentaOS recently? The are already provide
simplistic GUI[1] for SMF and other configuration management stuff like
Wifi/LAN confiugration, NFS/Samba, etc with unified {front,back}ends.

I know some folks porting GST  STB to Solaris now.
