This book describes how to install and upgrade the Solaris Operating System (OS) on both networked and nonnetworked SPARC and x86 architecture based systems. This book covers using the custom JumpStart installation method and the creation of RAID-1 volumes during installation.
This book does not include instructions about how to set up system hardware or other peripherals.
Note - This Solaris release supports systems that use the SPARC and x86 families of processor architectures. The supported systems appear in the Solaris OS: Hardware Compatibility Lists. This document cites any implementation differences between the platform types.
In this document these x86 related terms mean the following:
“x86” refers to the larger family of 64-bit and 32-bit x86 compatible products.
“x64” relates specifically to 64-bit x86 compatible CPUs.
“32-bit x86” points out specific 32-bit information about x86 based systems.
For supported systems, see the Solaris OS: Hardware Compatibility Lists.
This book is intended for system administrators responsible for installing the Solaris OS. This book provides both of the following types of information.
Advanced Solaris installation information for enterprise system administrators who manage multiple Solaris machines in a networked environment
Basic Solaris installation information for system administrators who perform infrequent Solaris installations or upgrades
Table P-1 lists documentation for system administrators.
