Solaris OS和SunOS的详细对应表

【前言】

　　SUN的操作系统的叫法通常有两种，有时叫Solaris，有时叫SunOS，很多人对Solaris操作系统以及SunOS这两种叫法感到非常的迷惑，到底哪个是哪个啊？以下资料来自SUN网站的官方说明，希望对大家有所帮助。

　　Solaris OS 和 SunOS Software 的比较

　　* SunOS software--A base operating system

　　SunOS software is Sun's version of the UNIX[R] platform.

　　* Solaris OS--A product composed of two parts:

　　* SunOS software

　　* Graphical user environment and the ONC[TM] system with networking (NFS, NIS, and NIS+)

　　Version History

　　* SunOS software: The earlier versions of Sun's operating system were simply called SunOS.

　　* SunOS 4.1.1 software: With the advent of SunOS 4.1.1 software, the name Solaris 1 was adopted to describe the operating system with the additional graphics-networking environment.

　　(Refer to Appendix A for a SunOS 4.x/Solaris 1 equivalence list.)

　　* SunOS 4.x software: The SunOS 4.x software range is the Berkeley(BSD) standard and is superseded by the SunOS 5.x software range that conforms to the System 5 Release 4 (SVR4) standard. This group of operating systems is also known as the Solaris 2.x software range. To confuse the issue further, the web site for the SunSolve[SM] program refers to the SunOS 4.x software range as just SunOS and refers to the SunOS 5.x range as just Solaris. Note: No further reference will be made to the SunOS 4.x software range in this document. This software is supported on a best-efforts basis only because it has reached the end of the support life.

　　* Solaris 2.x software: When the 2.x range of operating systems changed from 32 bit to 64/32 bit, the number "2" that preceded the version number was dropped. Therefore, there is no Solaris 2.7 OS, only Solaris 7 OS.

　　Equivalence List for Solaris 2.x OS and SunOS 5.x Software

　　The following list includes only those operating systems that are still popular and in use by customers

　　Solaris 2.x OS version

　　Equivalent SunOS 5.x Software Version Type

　　2.5.1 5.5.1 32 bit

　　2.6 5.6 32 bit

　　7 5.7 64 bit/32 bit

　　8 5.8 64 bit/32 bit

　　9 5.9 64 bit/32 bit

　　The Solaris 2.x OS range and the SunOS 5.x software range are available to run on both SPARC[R] technology and INTEL architecture.

　　Which Version of Solaris OS Do I Have Installed?

　　To identify the Solaris 2.x OS version that you have installed, you can the following command to display the /etc/release file:

　　cat /etc/release

　　The following output appears:

　　The /etc/release file may contain entries that show a "month/year" date following the version information:

　　Solaris 9 12/02 s9s_u2wos_10 SPARC

　　In the preceding example, the 12/02 indicates that this is a hardware release of this version of the operating system, that is, Solaris 9 hardware release December 2002.

　　When there are no entries with a "month/year" date version, the release is one of the following:

　　FCS or Blank First Customer Shipment

　　Solaris 2.6

　　Solaris 8 FCS

　　Beta release

　　Solaris 8 Beta

　　MU Maintenance Update

　　Solaris 8 Maintenance Update 2 (MU2)

　　Which Version of SunOS Software Do I Have installed?

　　The command to identify the SunOS 5.x software version that you have installed installed is uname -r or uname -sr.

　　uname -sr
