Go to the SunSolve patch page at http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patchpage.
Click the Recommended Patch Clusters link.
Download the patch cluster for your Solaris OS and Java ES versions.

Directory Server Enterprise Edition software is validated with full installations of the operating systems listed here, not with reduced “base”, “End User”, or “core” installations.

Directory Server runs on Solaris SPARC, on Solaris 10 AMD x64 systems, and on HP-UX PA-RISC systems in 64-bit mode. Directory Server runs on Solaris x86 systems, on Solaris 9 AMD x64 systems, on Red Hat systems, and on Windows systems in 32-bit mode.

You must install Directory Server and Directory Proxy Server on Windows NTFS system. The Common Agent Container is not supported on Windows FAT system.
