Solaris 历史版本

 Solaris  
操作系统Solaris
  Solaris 是Sun Microsystems研发的计算机 操作系统。它被认为是UNIX操作系统的衍生版本之一。 目前Solaris属于混合开源软件。2005年6月14日,Sun公司将正在开发中的Solaris 11的源代码以CDDL许可开放,这一开放版本就是OpenSolaris。
  Sun的操作系统最初叫做SunOS,由于Sun Microsystem的创始人之一,Bill Joy来自U.C.Berkeley,因此SunOS主要是基于BSDUnix版本。SunOS 5.0开始,SUN的操作系统开发开始转向System V Release 4,并且有了新的名字叫做Solaris 2.0;Solaris 2.6以后,SUN删除了版本号中的"2",因此,SunOS 5.10就叫做Solaris 10。 Solaris的早期版本后来又被重新命名为Solaris 1.x。所以"SunOS"这个词被用做专指Solaris操作系统的内核,因此Solaris被认为是由SunOS,图形化的桌面计算环境,以及它网络增强部分组成。
  支持的系统架构
  Solaris支持多种系统架构:SPARC, x86 and x64。x64即AMD64及EMT64处理器。在版本2.5.1的时候,Solaris曾经一度被移植到PowerPC架构,但是后来又在这一版本正式发布时被删去。与Linux相比,Solaris可以更有效地支持对称多处理器、即SMP架构。Sun同时宣布将在Solaris 10的后续版本中提供Linux运行环境。允许Linux二进制程序直接在Solaris x86和x64系统上运行。
  Solaris传统上与基于Sun SPARC处理器的硬件体系结构结合紧密,在设计上和市场上经常捆绑在一起,整个软硬件系统的可靠性和性能也因此大大增强。然而SPARC系统的成本和价格通常要高于PC类的产品,这成为Solaris进一步普及的障碍。可喜的是,Solaris对x86体系结构的支持正得到大大加强,特别是Solaris 10已经能很好地支持x64(AMD64/EMT64)架构。Sun公司已推出自行设计的基于AMD64的工作站和服务器,并随机附带Solaris 10。
  用户群
  早期的Solaris主要用于Sun工作站上。不过,随着Sun让Solaris可以免费下载和OpenSolaris的释出,Solaris/OpenSolaris 除了作为服务器/工作站的用途外,已经开始可以作为Desktop用途。虽然现在仍然不普及,且应用程式和设备驱动的支援尚嫌不足,但这一问题正得到快速改善,未来,用户群朝向一般大众的情况仍是有很高的可能性的。
  目前各大软件、应用程式厂商对SPARC平台的支援尚算良好,但对x86平台的Solaris多半都不支援。这也是x86使用者面临的困境之一。
  桌面环境
  第一个Solaris的桌面环境是OpenWindows。紧接着是Solaris 2.5的CDE。 在Solaris 10中,Sun又推出了基于GNOME的,Java Desktop System。
  开放源代码
  Solaris已开放其部分源代码,但是由于Sun公司的源代码许可证,Solaris“不是”自由软件,而OpenSolaris才是。
  Solaris的大多数源代码已经在CDDL的许可下在OpenSolaris开源项目中发布[5]。二进制和源代码目前都可以被下载和许可而无需任何费用。 Sun的Common Development and Distribution License被选择用做OpenSolaris的许可,并通过了Open Source Initiative评审和批准,但其授权条款与时下流行的[GPL]互不兼容。
  OpenSolaris于2005年6月14日正式启动,源代码来自当前的Solaris开发版本。Solaris未来的版本将从OpenSolaris衍生。[1]

  主要版本
  Solaris最新的(2006年2月)主要发布版本如下:
  Solaris版本 SunOS内核版本 发布日期 简介
Solaris 10 SunOS 5.10 2005.1.31 包括DTrace (动态跟踪), Solaris Containers, Service Management Facility (SMF),SMF取代了传统的UNIX的init.d脚本, 和iSCSI支持。 基于Gnome的Java Desktop System作为默认桌面, 还包含了CDE。
Solaris 9 SunOS 5.9 2002.5.22 最近的更新是Solaris 9 9/05 【9/05表示该版本是05年9月release的。】
Solaris 8 SunOS 5.8 2000.2 包括Multipath I/O。引入Role Based Access Control (RBAC)功能。 最近的更新是Solaris 8 2/04. [2]
Solaris 7 SunOS 5.7 1998.11 第一个64位版本。[3]
Solaris 2.6 SunOS 5.6 1997.7 包括Kerberos 5, PAM, TrueType字体, WebNFS [4]
Solaris 2.5.1 SunOS 5.5.1 1996.5 用户ID(uid_t)扩展为32 bits。[5]
Solaris 2.5 SunOS 5.5 1995.11 首先支持Ultra 1并包含了CDE [6]
  SUN对Solaris 7和Solaris 2.6已经不再销售但仍旧提供支持。更早期的版本已经没有支持。
  SunOS仍旧用来称呼Solaris的核心. SunOS的版本号是以5.{Solaris版本号}来表示。例如,最新的Solaris发布版本,Solaris 10, 在SunOS 5.10上运行。Solaris的man手册是以SunOS为标记的,启动的时候也显示它, 但是"SunOS"这个词不再用于Sun的市场文档中。

-bash-3.2$ cat /etc/release

                            Assembled 23 August 2011
从这里可以看出系统版本solaris 10,是11年8月23号发行的
