Welcome to my Solaris notes

Components of Sun OS

Three components of Sun OS

  • Kernel - the core of Sun OS and manages all physical resources of the computer
  • Shell - a command interpreter and interfaces between user and kernel
  • Directory Hierarchy

Default shells

Sun OS default primary shells:

  • Bourne shell - original unix system shell and default for root user. regular user prompt is $ and root is #
  • C shell - command line history, aliasing, and job control. default regular user is hostname% and root is hostname#
  • Korn Shell - superset of Bourne shell plus C shell like features and enhancements. command line history, aliasing, job control, and command line editing default regular prompt is $ and root is #

Sun OS contains three alternative shells:

  • Bash shell - GNU project Bourne Again SHell is bourne compatible shell that contains handy features from Korn and C shell.
  • Z shell - resembles Korn shell plus enhancements
  • TC shell - C compatible shell plus enhancements
