The S8MA enables you to migrate a Solaris 8 host to a solaris8 branded zone (also known as a Solaris 8 container) on a Solaris 10 host. The solaris8 zone is an environment for Solaris 8 applications on SPARC machines running the Solaris 10 8/07 Operating System or later. The brand supports the execution of 32-bit and 64-bit Solaris 8 applications.
