Platform Names and Groups

When you are adding clients for a network installation, you must know your system architecture (platform group). If you are writing a custom JumpStart installation rules file, you need to know the platform name.

Some examples of platform names and groups follow. For a full list of SPARC based systems, see Solaris Sun Hardware Platform Guide at https://docs.sun.com/.

Note - On a running system, you can also use the uname -i command to determine a system's platform name or the uname -m command to determine a system's platform group.
