In ye olden days, or on FreeBSD, I'd probably back up /etc (and, on BSD,
/usr/local/etc) with rsync and assume that would capture the configuration.

With SMF, which is opaque about its config file locations, I suspect that
wouldn't do it.  I think the service configuration settings are scattered
around the filesystem, with some of it under /lib.
