Processes and the threads within them, yes. > Is my understanding correct? If it is, does Solaris > have an alternative > for exporting more arbitrary information like Linux > does? As in a one-stop-shopping random dumping ground for whatever? No. There aren't a whole lot of places in Solaris where the word "arbitrary" applies. One of those is kstat data; to see all of it (but don't expect to understand it; some of it is very obscure), just run the "kstat" command. If you were to say what particular information you were looking for (not just everything that Linux /proc has; some of us know Solaris pretty well but don't know much about Linux), you might have betting luck getting answers as to how to obtain it.
