I've got the Solaris 10 CDs down and will try to do an install on a SunBlade we have here, with any luck I can get a copy of the U2 Solaris binaries from IBM in relatively short order to test this out, at least in a proof of concept stage.

What I meant was it won't run as a supported platform. I spoke to IBM last week and they said they only support Solaris on a SPARC.

It will as a 32-bit application. You can run a single Opteron on a dual-board and you still get the benefit of 64-bit hardware. I have Win2K Pro running on that setup right now serving huge files.

Yes (v490). Problem is that Universe is compiled against Solaris 7 so you get absolutely no benefit of later versions.
Also as far as I know Universe does not run on Opteron.

Hola all -
We've suddenly had some resources freed up from another project and
are
looking to rapidly replace the 12-14 year old SGI Challenge Ls (which, truly, are still performing magnificently in most respects) we have
our
UniVerse 9.6 installation on.
We've so far primarily tested on U2 10.1.x running on redHat AS 3.2
and
we're starting to get quotes for hardware, and we've concentrated on
x86
so far; the Sun guys came by today & pitched a very nice price for 4 way Opteron based 40Zs, but they also made a fairly strong case for
the
virtualization/compartmentalization features of Solaris 10. I know
it's
kind of early yet, but has anyone tried running U2 in these
containers?
I'm fascinated by the idea (as we could dual-purpose the box and not have to worry so much about our high-availability needs), but it will take a while before I can actually get to trying it out on the
SunBlade
100 here, so I'm interested if anyone's tried this, perhaps from the Solaris 10 betas.
Thanks very much for any input.
