Since we do not know and you do not know I am assuming the default install path:

ls /opt/sun/*

If this command returns an error or shows no files, then you do not have sun studio, and therefore you do not have dbx.

If the above command works, let's now find the command: To locate dbx (it should be in /opt/sun/sunstudio11/bin but may be elsewhere )

try:

find /opt/sun -name dbx

Let's pretend it returns /opt/sun/sunstudio11/bin/dbx This means that

/opt/sun/sunstudio11/bin/ is the directory dbx lives in. Add it to your PATH variable:

PATH=${PATH}:/opt/sun/sunstudio11/bin/
export PATH

Now the shell will run dbx when you simply type dbx

If you want it to be permenanent, then edit (in your home directory ) your .profile ( or .bash_profile for bash) file with the two lines above.
