What is the purpose of the Service Management Facility (SMF) profiles?
A.
an XML file that describes current services and the instances
B.
allows the customization of services and instances
C.
stores configuration information about each service instance
D.
used to start and stop processes or services
Explanation:
Profiles are, in many ways, similar to manifests in that they use the same XML DTD.
However, instead of providing information about a service, its dependencies, and methods, a
profile is used to provide customization of a service or an instance of a service. Customizations
include whether an instance of a service should be enabled or disabled and any modifications to
service configuration properties.
Incorrect:
Not A: Manifests (not profiles) are used to describe services and instances of a service, including
any property groups and properties they might have.
A,B,C,D

Question was about SMF PROFILES, so I think A,B and C are correct. With SMF profiles you can not start and stop processes or services. It just describe how a service can start and stop.
B
An SMF manifest is an XML file that describes a service and a set of instances. Manifests are imported to load the properties of that service and its instances into the service configuration repository. See the service_bundle(4) man page for a complete description of the contents of an SMF manifest.
B.
SMF Profiles
An SMF profile is an XML file that allows customization of services and instances that are delivered by the system. Profiles are available for customization by using a file rather than a set of scripts, or to customize the configuration at deployment or installation time.
