Gary,

Will have the following authorization model. Whenever the "set" method 
interfaces are invoked, it checks if the user has the required 
authorization to perform the operation.

Authorization name with its entry in /etc/security/auth_attr

solaris.powermanagement.:::Power Management::help=PowerMgmt.html
solaris.powermanagement.halcpufreq::: Manage HAL CPU frequency 
methods::help=HalCpuFreq.html

Profile for HAL CPU Freq in /etc/security/prof_attr
