Both of these require the Solaris 9 Containers software (p2v comes with the
Containers software).  The software has a 90 day free evaluation license 
but
production use requires purchase of an annual license. Search for Solaris 9
Containers on www.sun.com.

There are a number of restrictions (e.g., no kernel modules so things 
such as
Brixton SNA or ClearCase won't work in such a zone). The intent is that
the software is a migration aid - support will end when support for the 
OS it
'emulates' ends. Many ISVs will not support their software running in such
a container - if ISV support is required, ask the ISV.

One option you should consider is whether the app will just run on 
Solaris 10
without any special software. AppCert is a good starting point for answers
to that question.

it states
 The software is bundled
 with a one-year Right-to-Use (RTU) license and
 premium support.
it did not say RTU is free

 FYI-- the RTU is now fully free-- you pay only for support.  The
 support includes the support for the Solaris 8 instances inside
 of the containers.

 A good starting point is this white paper:
