There is no command to get the serial number of a SUN server at either the boot prompt or after booting.

The banner command at the ok prompt give you the MAC address - once booted, you can see the MAC as root by running the ifconfig -a.
Or you might be looking for hostid (which is the command also).

Following command will show S/N on few servers,but I am not sure if this will work for your SUN machine.

# uname -X
System = SunOS
Node = HOSTNAME
Release = 5.8
KernelID = Generic_108528-18
Machine = sun4u
BusType = <unknown>
Serial = <unknown>
Users = <unknown>
OEM# = 0
Origin# = 1
NumCPU = 4

Thanks,

If it is showing unknown it is not set in sneep.  sneep will give your system serial number

/opt/SUNWsneep/bin/sneep

You can also use this to set your serial.
