Solaris Advanced Installation Guide

Appendix C Platform Names and Groups

Table C-1 lists the platform names and groups of various hardware platforms. You may need this information when preparing a system to install Solaris software.

On a running system, you can also use the uname -i command to determine a system's platform name or use the uname -m command to determine a system's platform group.
