Yes, if your hardware is not on the HCL Sun doesn't officially support it or guarantee that it will work. However, Solaris x86 is pretty robust and just because it isn't listed doesn't mean you won't be able to get it to work. Best thing to do is give it a try.

1. Solaris
I have a Sun Ultra 5 that is running Solaris 8. I believe I meet the minimum requirements for Solaris 10 but the Ultra 5 is not on the HCL.
This will be my first ever Solaris upgrade so do I follow the HCL guidelines?

I am new to Sun.
I brought Sun Fire 280R to practice UNIX. What are the requirements for the monitor/CRT? Will it burn out old non-Sun CRTs? Does it need LCD monitor?
Thanks. (3 Replies)

NAME
belkin - Driver for Belkin serial UPS equipment
NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the belkin driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
The belkin driver is known to support the Regulator Pro 525 (F6C525-SER). Other similar models such as the 425 and 625 should also work.
The Trust UPS and older Belkin units are not supported.
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver does not support any extra settings in the ups.conf(5).
BUGS
The protocol for this UPS is not officially documented.
Beware. It is possible to turn your UPS into a glorified power strip if you play with the protocol directly. In particular, there is one
command that will convince it that it has no batteries, so you lose your protection.
I had to go out and buy another identical model to find out what to program back into that register to bring the first one back to life.
It is not safe to send random characters to this UPS.
Note: the driver doesn't go anywhere near these character sequences, so it won't zap your UPS. I only mention this here as yet another
reminder of the perils of closed hardware.
