need to generate support id..

Hi,
we bought a new sun ultra 45 workstation preloaded with solaris 10.
Now i need to download the latest patch cluster from sunsolve.
But it is asking for a valid service plan.

Anybody can help how to generate a support id..

Go to sunsolve.sun.com - after the "Accept the terms" policy, on the right side there is a Register (under the part where you would sign in). As long as you have a valid contract, you can set up your id.

If you don't know your contract number, then you need to contact SUN (either the folks you bought the servers from or SUN).

You can create an account without a service plan and even have access to the recommended patches. You won't be able to get access to some patches or documents until you have a contract though. I've sent e-mails asking if I can get a general contractor service contract so I'd have access to the depths of sunsolve when I'm between contracts but never got a reply.
