Very Computer

Hi all,

I am a Sun Solaris 8 & 9 administrator and it's been almost 5 years
that SUN systems has touched my heart massively (...to be precise... it
has been my source of bread and Butter)...

Off late I came to hear that SUN Solaris 10 has come up with new
features and apart from that they have changed the whole structure of
OS as well, compare to Solaris 8 & 9.

I would like to know what exactly the changes and  new features had bee
commissioned in Solaris 10...(A brief list can help me in this
regard...)...Please help.. Need to be keep a* with new
technology..!!

Many Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
-Vinu.

In another thread you said you didn't know what "pkgadd" did. Sorry,
but I don't think you can call yourself a Solaris Administrator.

Collectively how many times have you been pointed to docs.sun.com by now?
I've seen at least 4-5 times...

Yeah, but this is different!  Now he doesn't need the documentation but the
feature list ;-)

So get ready guys to start repeating after me:
http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/

(ok, ok... its sunday and I'm a little bored. won't feed any more trolls (IMO
thats what its about with the OP) today).

Boss.. those were interview questions..which I posted...Although I did
know the answer ... I was just trying to know something different and
to present in a classy interview stuff......

One of the project I worked I found that companies use their own
customized packages... so they use pkgadd to install those in specific
directories...Like by default some packages use /usr directory as base
to install .... So I thought somebody must have the answer to ---> how
to use "pkgadd" to use packages for the specific directories we want...
and there are more other stuff..I would like to explore on those
questions...!!

Docs.sun.com doesn't have much answer...but thanks...I would go there
and check the stuff I require...

Thanks for your help again.

Browsing www.sun.com should quickly reveal what you seek -- the last
time I looked (about 2 minutes ago), there was a direct link from there
to a Solaris 10 information page.

I'm surprised you didn't think of that yourself.

Do it the fun way - download it and poke around. Better than the charts
& graphs at http://www.veryComputer.com/
will get hands on experience. Though don't be in a hurry for ZFS. That
gets pushed back more than a Window$ release date.

If docs.sun.com doesn't have the answer, then you need to think about
the question.

The What's new document is always useful;
