Questions about Solaris 10
I am new to solaris 10.

I have a few questions

1) How do I check the current version of grub?
2) How do I update grub version
3) what version onwards supports GPT?

Thanks

Run:
Code:
/boot/grub/bin/grub --version

By installing a newer Solaris patch that affects grub, if any.

I guess none. Solaris 10 bundled GRUB probably only supports the legacy BIOS MBR partition table.

From this:

What's New in Disk Management? - Oracle Solaris 11.1 Administration: Devices and File Systems

I'd say GPT/EFI booting isn't in Solaris 10 on x86. Solaris on SPARC doesn't use GRUB, so that's going to be different.
