Things installed on Solaris come in packages. The command [tt]pkginfo[/tt] will show you all of the installed packages. You can also do a "[tt]man pkginfo[/tt]" to find out about parameters you can give the command.
as Sam writes, most Solaris SW is installed in packages, but there are some Applications (afaik Oracle) bring their own Installroutine and just unpack/copy files; these applications are hard to find/identify and there is just one best practise: the file /var/sadm/install/contents contains a list of files which are installed by pkgadd; if zou run find / -print you will get a list of all files on this host. Next step is: diff these lists and you will find out what is installed by copying/untaring
