If you want Oracle to run every time the machine boots, you should
deliver an SMF manifest that sets up such a service.  Mark it enabled
as default, and set reset-fmri=svc:/system/manifest-import on the
xml file that delivers the manifest.  You're done.

The start method should take care of whatever needs to be done
at first boot.

Is this about not wanting to create SMF services?
