Configure DNS services in Solaris 11 using SMF

The well known files resolv.conf and nsswitch.conf are no longer important in Solaris 11. 
The new way to change DNS configuration is by using SMF: 

* Define new dns settings (resolv.conf)
svccfg -s dns/client "setprop config/nameserver = net_address: 10.0.1.1"
svccfg -s dns/client "setprop config/domain = astring: raghon.no"
svccfg -s dns/client "setprop config/search = astring: raghon.no"
svcadm enable dns/client

* Configure name-service switch (nsswitch.conf)

svccfg -s name-service/switch "setprop config/host = astring: \"files dns\""
svcadm restart name-service/switch
