Question Solaris - 32bit or 64 bit?

How do you find out if a Sun Box is 64bit or 32bit? Is there a command I can run in UNIX to find out if it is 32 or 64 bit?

uname -a gives
SunOS machine_name 5.9 Generic sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R

Any sun4u architecture is capable so running in 64 bit mode. Solaris 7 and above will boot into 64 bit by default. You can run both 64-bit and 32 bit applications on Solaris when booted 64 bit.

Try 'isainfo -b'
