Command to get Vendor information on Solaris

Hello

I know that prtdiag and prtconf both give the Vendor information on the first line, something like this:
System Configuration: Oracle Corporation sun4u Sun Fire V240

But is there a command that would ONLY output the vendor, so therefore in this example, it would only output Oracle Corporation?

Thanks in advance

Try this:
Code:
prtconf | head -1 | cut -d' ' -f4,5

thanks for the workaround

but is there an actual single command?

what if the model came back to be a single field? say like this: System Configuration: Fujitsu sun4u Sun Fire V240, the workaround would pull in sun4u

Vendor would not be accomplished with a single command.

For other items, see

Code:
man uname
