Good book if you want a broad overview and outline of the procedures and tools needed to maintain Solaris Servers.

More of a broad overview, you can fill in the blanks elsewhere.

this book is not for the technican
this book describes the areas within Solaris that managers (i.e. non-solaris personnel) would need to highlight important components of a complete solaris system, like SLA's, risks, benefits etc. View this book like this, and it is invaluable as a quick reference on key issues. the previous reviewer obviously just walked into a bookstore and picked up the first book he saw with Solaris in the title. a quick read of the table of contents and editorial comment would have been enough insight. It was for me!

More political BS than technical
You may be very disappointed if you don't have a good look at this book before you buy it. It would be great for a manager in the political (vs. technical sysadmin) sense. But it's short on technical `meat`, and long on general concepts.
