cd to the home directory of SUNWexplo and then go to the bin directory.

These are the options for explorer:
explorer -version
explorer -help

explorer
[ -h <explorer-home> ]
[ -d <defaults-file> ]
[ -l <log-file> ]
[ -e | -mail ]
[ -E <email-address> | -myemail <email-address> ]
[ -t <output-directory> | -target <output-directory> ]
[ -u ]
[ -r ]
[ -R <email-address> ]
[ -i | -instinfo ]
[ -k | -keep ]
[ -f <file> ]
[ -c <command> ]
[ -w <module-list> ]
[ -V | -version ]
[ -v | -verbose ]
[ -q | -quiet ]
[ -C | -case <case-number> ]
[ -L | -esc <escalation-number> ]
[ -S | -sn <serial-number> ]
[ -T | -transport <transport> ]
[ -D ]
[ -N ]
[ -M ]
[ -iplanet ]
[ -m <sunone.config-file> ]
[ -j <j2se.config-file> ]
[ -n <scinput.txt-file> ]
[ -o <saninput.txt-file> ]
[ -p <t3input.txt-file> ]
[ -s <subject> ]


If you set your MANPATH to contain the path to the man pages under the SUNWexplo diretory (on my system it was /opt/SUNWexplo/man) then you can read the man page on explorer.


If you go to /opt/SUNWexplo/doc and read the README, you will have a very good explaination of what explorer does, and how to run it.

hii john

Thanks for the reply, i wanna to share with u what i have done

first this downloaded explorer.tar.z from sunsolve site

then uncompress it and by using tar xvf SUNWexplo.tar

after that with pkgadd -d command run the install program, i have installed the program in #/opt/SUNWexplo(directory)

it asked me lots ot question like serial no, contract id (which i dont know) company address engineers name telephone no etc etc

after the installation it asked me to run explorer -q -e to find out the detail

and for result v have to go and see in #/etc/opt/SUNWexplo/default/explorer there i can see ony what all information i have feeded is there nothing else and when i send to sun support they r asking me the output should come explorer.gz , which is not coming where should i see the output.when i run this command were will i get the output or where should i go and see, i think the output should show something regarding hardware or or applicaton or OS related so where should i go and see the out put of this all or i have to run this individual test sepratelyyy plss help me out

thanks in advance

The output should be in /opt/SUNWexplo/output/. Check there and post back.
