Sun(TM) Explorer Data Collector is a collection of scripts that gather
system information, bundles it into a compressed file, and sends it to
Sun with your approval.

Requirements:

    Explorer requires root privileges to run and root must have
    privileges to write to the directory in which you install the
    package.  Explorer only runs on Solaris 2.x systems and has only
    been tested on SPARC architecture.

To unpack Explorer after downloading, take the following steps:

    1) zcat SUNWexplo.tar.Z | tar xf -
    2) pkgadd -d . SUNWexplo
    3) During installation you are asked several questions, including
       the contract ID, serial number, etc.  Please supply your
       Contract ID, serial number, and Company Name, as this enables us
       to track the explorer output more effectively.

How to run explorer manually after installation:

    1) su root
    2) /opt/SUNWexplo/explorer
    3) Copies of the output are placed in /opt/SUNWexplo for your
       reference.
