When speaking in an Oracle Support Engineer, you are asked to verify the version of the Solaris
11 build currently running on your system.
Which command would display the Solaris 11 build version currently running on your system?
A.
pkg info all
B.
cat /etc/release
C.
cat /etc/update
D.
prtconf | grep –i update
E.
pkg info entire
Explanation:
Which Solaris release you are running on your system can be determined
using the following command:
cat /etc/release
This will tell you which release you are running and when it was released.
The more recent your system, the more info is contained in this file.
Example:
# cat /etc/release
Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC

I have gone through a lot of these questions and they are the same answers on PASS4Sure….should I go with the answers on these test prep or with the ones that people have submitted…I guess my question is are these test preps any good?
Shawn: As I checked, there are a lot questions where the answer is wrong. So that was the start point of the comments as most of us have tested all the questions on live sol11 machines or linking the approprate documentation in… If I were you, I would believe only in my experiences, so I would read over all the comments, diff it with the “show answer” and at the end test it in an own sol11 machine to prove who’s right 🙂 However most of the comments makes clear the answers where two or three of us say the same opposing the show answer button 🙂
Answer B correct

but you link is for Solaris 10 8/11, and this is a Solaris 11
B – because it shows the build version for x86 arch or sparc arch.
e – do not show the build arch and mostly use to show the current SRU on the system
