When you start installing Solaris 9, you get options for upgrading
from 8 to 9.

If you are looking for wizards, Solaris webstart might be of some help
http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/8/ds/ds-solwebstart/

You may also want to look at this URL for Solaris 9 'live' upgrade

Take a full backup of all your filesystems before attempting any upgrade.
