Pull Request (PR) description
Puppet on Solaris defaults to the SMF provider for services. Splunk is still using init scripts (as of latest version 9.0.0).
Puppet attempts to enable the service, which causes a catalog failure:
Error: Could not start Service[splunk]: Execution of '/usr/sbin/svcadm enable -rs splunk' returned 1: svcadm: Pattern 'splunk' doesn't match any instances
Error: /Stage[main]/Splunk::Forwarder::Service/Service[splunk]/ensure: change from 'stopped' to 'running' failed: Could not start Service[splunk]: Execution of '/usr/sbin/svcadm enable -rs splunk' returned 1: svcadm: Pattern 'splunk' doesn't match any instances
