Software Compatibility

The following figures show the possible combinations of SSP, AP, and Solaris software you can install on a Sun Enterprise server. Note that the Sun Enterprise 10000 can have any combination of domains with the operating environment and software listed on the right of the figures. The version of the Solaris operating environment on the SSP and the version on the domain do not need to match.

In the following figures, "base only" means no AP and no DR, unless otherwise noted. Mainly, "base only" refers to a domain that has only the Solaris operating environment installed. In addition, some of the scenarios below are possible only if you install a patch, or a set of patches, on the SSP or on the domain. For more information about what patch, or patches, refer to the patch descriptions at http://sunsolve.sun.com.
