Solaris Requirements and Issues

Java ES 7 is tested and supported on Solaris 10 for SPARC, x86, and x64 platforms and on Solaris 9 for SPARC and x86 platforms, with the following notes:

• Sun GlassFish Web Space Server 10.0 Update 6 does not support Solaris 9.

• Java ES 7 is tested and supported on Solaris 10 Trusted Extensions.

• Although Java ES 7 is supported on all versions of Solaris 9 and Solaris 10, specific products might recommend particular minimum update levels to achieve full functionality. For information, see the release notes for the appropriate product.

• Java ES 7 is tested and supported on Solaris systems installed using the following Solaris software groups:

  • SUNWCXall – Entire Solaris Software Group Plus OEM Support

  • SUNWCall – Entire Solaris Software Group

  Specific products might support additional groups, such as SUNWCprog (Developer Solaris Software Group) or SUNWCuser (End User Solaris Software Group). For information, see the release notes for the appropriate product.

• Some Java ES 7 products run on a minimized Solaris 10 system installed using SUNWCreq (Core System Solaris Software Group), or installed using SUNWCreq with the addition of a few other packages. The set of packages required for minimized installation varies by product. Therefore, refer to the release notes for the appropriate product to learn about the product's requirements for minimized installation on Solaris 10.
