The
idmapd service is managed by the service management facility
(SMF). The service identifier for the
idmapd service is
svc:/system/idmap.
Use the
svcadm command to perform administrative actions on this
service, such as enabling, disabling, or restarting the service.
These actions require the
solaris.smf.manage.idmap authorization. Use
the
svcs command to query the service's status.
The functionality of this daemon might change in a future release of
the Solaris operating system.
