Checking your OpenSolaris version via the net...

Can't quite remember what level of Sun OpenSolaris you're running? Easy enough:


shumira:/tmp> pfexec pkg info -l entire
Name: entire
Summary: entire incorporation
State: Installed
Authority: opensolaris.org
Version: 0.5-DOT-11
Build Release: 5.11
Branch: 0.101
Packaging Date: Thu Nov 6 17:09:44 2008
Size: 0.00 B
FMRI: pkg:/entire-AT-0.5-DOT-11,5.11-0.101:20081106T170944Z

Want to find out what's available?


shumira:/tmp> pfexec pkg info -r entire
Name: entire
Summary: entire incorporation
State: Not installed
Authority: opensolaris.org
Version: 0.5.11
Build Release: 5.11
Branch: 0.101
Packaging Date: Thu Dec 4 01:09:54 2008
Size: 0.00 B
FMRI: pkg:/entire-AT-0.5.11,5.11-0.101:20081204T010954Z

So 'entire' is the package you check... '-r' for the remote copy on the package servers, and '-l' for your local installed version.
