CAM uses the Sun Java Web Console to host its web application. Version 3.0.5 is bundled into the CAM distribution and is installed as required (Solaris 10 includes version 3.1 which CAM will use). In the case of OpenSolaris, which does not include any version of the Sun Java Web Console, you will end up with version 3.0.2 and not 3.0.5 after installing CAM. This is due to the fact that version 3.0.5 was actually a patch release. That is you first install 3.0.2 and then apply a patch to get to 3.0.5. Patches were released for Solaris 8, Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 --

Since there are no patches for OpenSolaris there is no way to get to version 3.0.5 on an OpenSolaris host when installing CAM. In a future release we will address this and will allow the same version of the console to be installed on an OpenSolaris host.
It should be noted that Sun Web Java Console 3.0.2 does have a security vulnerability which is described here.
