The format is fixed, cannot be changed according to
Code:
man sulog

But you can achieve the same by a yearly logrotation, with command
Code:
logadm -w /var/adm/sulog -C 10 -P 'Wed Jan  1 00:00:00 2014' -p 1y

and view the result with
Code:
cat /etc/logadm.conf

Then the logs for last year are (or better, will be) in /var/adm/sulog.0, from the year before in /var/adm/sulog.1 etc.
logadm is available since Solaris 9. See also
Code:
man logadm
