I am planning to make a solaris pkg for hobbit client. I am planning expire all bbclients from all 300 hosts (except the external scripts) and replace them with hobbit client 4.2.
Do I need to build pkg for each version--6,7,8,9,10--of Solaris? I know I have to make separate pkg for sparc and x86 platforms.
Depends on the run-time library compatibility between the various Solaris versions; I don't know how compatible they are.
I'd suggest that you try building the client on Solaris 6, then try copying the client/bb utility to some of the other boxes and run it - if it works, the client will probably work without needing a re-compile.
