Solaris 11 zone SMF service 'manifest-import' offline, will not start

Given a SVR4 pkg (on Solaris 11, Oracle documentation states that SVR4 packages are compatible) that has SMF definitions:
one needs to issue command 'svcadm restart svc:/system/manifest-import' to get the services started. However, command
'svcs system/manifest-import' shows service offline, and command 'svcadm restart system/manifest-import' does not bring
the service online. Reboot of zone does not start the SVR4 package SMF services either. How does one import SMF
manifests on a zone under Solaris 11? TIA.

Service 'manifest-import' offline because service 'milestone/config' was offline. Logged into zone console, rebooted from another
window, and completed system (zone) configuration. Now 'manifest-import' is online, as well as my SVR4 package services.
(The person that created the zone did not complete system configuration! - go figure). Thanks.
