On occasion and for reasons I cannot fathom, postgres will show as

$  svcs postgresql
STATE          STIME    FMRI
disabled       10:23:23 svc:/application/database/postgresql:version_81
offline*       13:58:38 svc:/application/database/postgresql:version_82

I will not be able to access the database

I am running 8.2.5 on Solaris 10.  Does anybody have any advice.
