This guide also provides procedures for managing users, zones, devices, and hosts that are labeled with Solaris Trusted Extensions software.


Note –

This Solaris release supports systems that use the SPARC® and x86 families of processor architectures. The supported systems appear in the Solaris OS: Hardware Compatibility Lists. This document cites any implementation differences between the platform types.

In this document these x86 related terms mean the following:

  • “x86” refers to the larger family of 64-bit and 32-bit x86 compatible products.

  • “x64” relates specifically to 64-bit x86 compatible CPUs.

  • “32-bit x86” points out specific 32-bit information about x86 based systems.

For supported systems, see the Solaris OS: Hardware Compatibility Lists.
