Thank you, as that was the intent of the build scripts supplied with  
the AVS OpenSource code.

Unfortunately, this was also the intent of the AVS OpenSolaris  
project, as the packages were developed to run on OpenSolaris, not  
Solaris 10u3.

Specific changes, or more specifically bug fixes, that are only in  
OpenSolaris are utilized by the source code contained in the  
OpenSolaris Project: Sun StorageTek Availability Suite's source code.  
If the OpenSoalris version of AVS was allowed to install and run on  
Solaris 10u3, there is high probability that one would run into these  
known problems, but not have a means to resolve them on S10u3.

Essentially AVS 4.0 (the product on Solaris 10), and the OpenSource  
Project for AVS, are similar code bases, but certain bug fixes are  
available only in OpenSolaris (Nevada), are these fixes were taken  
into account in the OpenSolaris code.

Second, the means to support AVS 4.0 (the product) on Solaris 10u3,  
and also AVS OpenSource on Solaris 10u3, would be problematic, so  
restricting that Solaris verisons on which the AVS OpenSource code  
seemed to be the best solution.
