verify, rpm -V for solaris pkgchk:

Basics
Nice big PS
/usr/ucb/ps -elf
compile man page index, the windex db:
/usr/bin/catman -w
Interfaces
Interface unvwmare: use e1000 devices, it works why not vxnet3?
create hostname file
/etc/hostname.e1000g0
externalname.domain.com
/etc/hostname.e1000g0
internalname.domain.com
plumb bum!
ifconfig e1000g0 plumb ifconfig e1000g0 plumb

Nexenta
interfaces : nmc (comnad line) and nmv ( web interface)
shares are called folders.
block size : use default 128k good for many apps. possible to change blocks size on the fly.
in the nmc get a bash shell for OS access:
options expert_mode=1 !bash
show appliance syslog
snapmirror nexenta style:
setup auto-sync create -g
Setting you manpath
look at all the man paths:
[root@alpha-ldap-01 log]# grep "man d " /var/sadm/install/contents | awk '{print $1}'
/opt/csw/share/man
/usr/local/apache2/doc/apache2/docs/man
/usr/local/apache2/man
/usr/local/doc/openldap/doc/man
/usr/local/man
/usr/local/mysql/man
/usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/german
/usr/local/php/man
/usr/local/share/man
/usr/local/ssl/man
/usr/sfw/share/man
/usr/share/man
[root@alpha-ldap-01 log
make a new line for your profile:
grep "man d " /var/sadm/install/contents | \
awk 'BEGIN{ORS=":"}{print $1}' | \
awk '{print "setenv MANPATH=" substr($0, 0, length($0)-1 ) }' >> ~/.profile
run after installing new software. NOT PERFECT, system wide?
Service Administration
Solaris now uses SMF Service Management Facility. Here is a wonderful cheatsheet:

Sendmail
