Solaris 10 5/09 Patch List

In the Solaris 10 5/09 release, the Solaris patch lists are not documented in the Solaris 10 5/09 Release Notes. The patch lists are documented in Solaris 10 5/09 Patch List.

System Administration Guide: IP Services

The title of the procedure to ensure unique MAC addresses is SPARC: How to Ensure That the MAC Address of an Interface Is Unique, in Solaris 10 3/05 ONLY . This procedure applies to all Solaris 10 Update releases and so the title should read as SPARC: How to Ensure That the MAC Address of an Interface Is Unique.

System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services (NIS+)

Starting with the Solaris 10 8/07 release, the Solaris OS does not have two separate hosts files. The /etc/inet/hosts file is now a single hosts file that contains both IPv4 and IPv6 entries. You need not maintain IPv4 entries in two hosts files that always require synchronization. For backward compatibility, the /etc/inet/ipnodes file is replaced with a symbolic link of the same name to the /etc/inet/hosts file. For more information, see the hosts(4) man page. NIS clients and servers can communicate using either IPv4 or IPv6 RPC transports.

Discontinuation of Swedish Documentation

Starting with the Solaris 10 8/07 release, documents will not be translated into Swedish. For all the latest information, see the English documents on http://docs.sun.com/.

Application Server Documentation Refers to Derby Database Instead of Java DB

Application Server documentation refers to the Java DB database as “Derby.” Replace all references to “Derby” with Java DB. The database is installed to /usr/appserver/javadb.

Documents on the Software Supplement CD

Beginning with Solaris 10 Operating System, the Supplement CD no longer exists. The documents that were formerly supplied on the Supplement CD can now be found at http://docs.sun.com. The rest of the CD's contents reside elsewhere in the Solaris kit or on Sun Microsystems' web site.
