Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Unix (not Linux) on x86 chips? Post 302316282 by robywar on Thursday 14th of May 2009 03:44:42 PM

Thanks for the replies everyone!

So it looks like for my tier 3, I should use x86, x64 and some sort of Unix catch-all? I work on a military base, so 99% of our assets are going to be windows based anyway, so I don't think it would do much good to get more granular than that.

x86
x64
Unix

Then, if we happen to have something like Solaris x86 running on a server, it can be classified correctly in terms of hardware and we can use the software categorizations for whatever OS is on it.

Thank you for your help!
