Solaris Live Upgrade significantly reduces the downtime associated with an operating system upgrade or maintenance. It enables the Solaris 8, 7, and 2.6 Operating Environment to continue to run while an
administrator upgrades to the latest release of the Operating Environment, applies patches or does routine maintenance on the inactive or duplicate boot environment. When satisfied with the process, the administrator simply reboots the system to run the latest or updated operating environment.
Using Solaris Administrative Tools, remote administration of your network is possible, and it's simple. Whether you need to manage a single desktop server or a cluster of hundreds of CPUs, the Solaris
Operating Environment provides the administration applications and tools to meet your network demands.
