Solaris 10 11/06 Operating System
Solaris 10 11/06 Operating SystemThe following information applies to systems that are preinstalled with the Solaris 10 11/06 Operating System. As an owner of one of these Sun hardware products, you can use this software according to the terms in the Software License Agreement and Entitlement documents provided with the hardware. The software of this Solaris release is completely installed on your system, including everything installed by the "Entire Distribution plus OEM support" option. This includes all the locales supported by this Solaris release. However, some software provided in the Solaris 10 11/06 media kit has not been installed on your system. If you want to use the additional software, obtain the full media kit for this Solaris release and install software from the included discs. Order the appropriate media kit for the version preinstalled on your system:
Starting To Use Solaris 10 11/06 OS SoftwareFirst, follow the installation instructions provided with the hardware. Note that some Sun hardware products require more extended start-up procedures than are described in the following steps. For example, there are actions explained in the "Sun Blade 8000 Modular System Installation Guide" that must be performed before starting the Solaris 10 software preinstalled on that system. Or, for the Sun Fire 12K server, refer to the "Sun Fire High-End Systems Software Overview Guide". When you are ready to start up the preinstalled Solaris 10 11/06 software, perform the following steps:
Further Information About the Solaris 10 11/06 Operating SystemCollections of manuals about this Solaris release are available at: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/solaris.10 For more details about installing Solaris software, read the "Solaris 10 11/06 Installation Guide: Basic Installations", which is available at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-6394 Solaris Zones Software PartitioningThis Solaris release includes a software partitioning technology used to virtualize operating system services and provide an isolated and secure environment for running applications. On this system, Solaris 10 11/06 OS is preinstalled as a global zone. Some software products might require installation in a non-global zone. For information about how to configure and use zones on your system, see the "System Administration Guide: Solaris Containers--Resource Management and Solaris Zones", which is available at: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1592 Installing Another Solaris ReleaseIf you choose to install a different Solaris release on this system in place of the preinstalled version, follow the instructions provided in the media folder for that Solaris release. However, you risk deleting all the preinstalled software on this system if you perform a new installation of any release of Solaris software, rather than performing an upgrade of the preinstalled Solaris. If you intend to make a fresh installation of Solaris OS, be sure all the other preinstalled software you plan to use is backed up or available to you for reinstallation. Using Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 with Solaris 10 11/06Your system might include a preloaded copy of Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 ready to be installed. This release of Java Enterprise System software includes different versions of some software components that are already provided in Solaris 10 11/06.Before you install the Application Server or Message Queue products from Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4, you must first run the following commands as superuser: yes | pkgrm `pkginfo | grep -i "application server" | awk '{ print $2 }'`
yes | pkgrm `pkginfo | grep -i "message queue" | awk '{ print $2 }'`
Restoring Preinstalled SoftwareThis system is not provided with media that reproduces the exact state of software preinstalled on this system. If you replace the original hard drive that contains the preinstalled software, the replacement drive will not contain the software. To be ready to restore the preinstalled software to this system in the future, prepare a backup of the software you intend to use. Order the appropriate media kit for the version of Solaris 10 11/06 OS preinstalled on your system:
Some software products are provided on the Solaris DVD in the ExtraValue
directory. The default Solaris installation process might not install
all the software from this directory that you intend to use.
This Solaris software media kit does not include Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 media. If this version of Java Enterprise System software is installed on your system, you can reinstall it with this media kit:
