SunOS to Solaris conversion
2007-12-25 8:57:00
Hello Sun-managers
We are in the process of converting from SunOS 4.1.x to SunOS 5.x
Is there a table anywhere showing the equivalent commands between
the two o/s. I know there are the manuals but I am looking a table
that would also include the less common commands.
SunOS 4.1.x SunOs 5.x
/usr/etc/pstat -T ?

Special thanks to the dozens to people who replied, there are simply
too many to mention but all deserve credit.

1) Try Janice Windsor's book "Solaris system administrator's guide", from
SunSoft press. It includes a good listing towards the end of command
conversions.
2) The Answerbook under Solaris has a Transition Guide that contains 50+
page tables of exactly that, comparing not only commands, but system
calls and library calls.
3) Whatnow and whatlist
4) The latest Solaris 2 FAQ, including an HTML version, and some other
goodies can be obtained through ftp from ftp.fwi.uva.nl:/pub/solaris.
Maintained-by Casper Dik <casper@fwi.uva.nl>.
5) Suite of tools, in the AdMigration-2.2a Toolkit, expedites migration
ofrom Solaris 1.0 to Solaris 2.x
6) A transition file.
