A good place to start is the "/usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag -v"
command.

definitely prtdiag -v is a great place to start.  for hard disk
information, take a look at iostat (the -E option is quite helpful for
finding out sizing information).

Yep... some of the commands below will only work on
certain hardware configurations...
(hyphenized names below require your input)

/usr/platform/your-model/sbin/prtdiag
/usr/sfw/bin/ipmitool fru
/usr/sbin/prtconf -pv
/usr/bin/iostat -Enr
/usr/sbin/psrinfo -p -v
/usr/bin/kstat ce:interface-name
/usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/interface-name instance interface-number
/usr/sbin/ndd -get /dev/interface-name link_speed
/usr/sbin/ndd -get /dev/interface-name link_duplex
/usr/sbin/ndd -get /dev/interface-name link_mode

And if you have x86 Solaris platforms, I recommend compiling
dmidecode (google for it).

Discovering your hardware configuration with Solaris, or just about any 
Unix, is not as easy as it might be.  The design of the O/S tends to 
hide the fact that there is hardware somewhere.  In a way that's good 
because it makes it more difficult to write hardware dependent software.

You can try prtdiag and prtconf.

ISTR a piece of software that will tell you what is plugged in to each 
memory socket but I've forgotten the details.

Real men open the box and look! :-)
