Firstly, it probably depends which version of Solaris you're running, but also what hardware you have.
On SPARC at least, you have psrinfo to show you processor information, which run on its own will show you the number of CPUs the machine sees. psrinfo -p shows you the number of physical processors installed. From that you can deduce the number of threads/cores per physical processors.
prtdiag will display a fair bit of info about the hardware in your machine. It looks like on a V240 you do get memory channel info from prtdiag, but you don't on a T2000. I guess that's an architecture issue between UltraSPARC IIIi and UltraSPARC T1.
The nproc command shows the number of processing units available:
$ nproc
Sample outputs: 4
lscpu gathers CPU architecture information form /proc/cpuinfon in human-read-able format:
$ lscpu
Sample outputs:
Architecture: x86_64
CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit

L1i cache: 32K
L2 cache: 4096K
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-7
I think you can use prtdiag or prtconf on many UNIXs
There is no standard Unix command, AFAIK. I haven't used Sun OS, but on Linux, you can use this:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
Sorry that it is Linux, not Sun OS. There is probably something similar though for Sun OS.
Try psrinfo to find the processor type and the number of physical processors installed on the system.
My favorite is to look at the boot messages. If it's been recently booted try running /etc/dmesg. Otherwise find the boot messages, logged in /var/adm or some place in /var.
