I think you will find all the info you need here: Using /etc/release File Information to Determine the Solaris OE Revision

s28s_u6wos_08a SPARC = solaris 2.8 sparc update 6

Here's another doc from Sun that talks about the different types of releases: http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features...isVersions.jsp
