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.
