Hi SUGgers of MSO, (It sounded better in my head)
It's May already, and *Solaris 11.2* has released! (At least in Beta)
So - it's time to rip the covers off the what's new and see what matters
to us as a group.
(Gavin - I'm *still* looking at you and the vm2 subsystem one of these
days!! heh heh.) :).
This month, we'll chat at least in high level detail about a bunch of
the coolness that's arrived in S11.2, have some quick demo's and if time
permits, look at a feature or two in detail.
Hope to see you there, and if you would like to present on anything in
S11.2 that you have already played with, let me know, and I'll make
space for you in the program!
Oh - For reference - On the list of what folks wanted to see - we
collectively decided we'd like to talk about the following in the coming
months:
DTrace stuff (including a re-intro/primer as we have a bunch of new
folks in the group), Solaris 11 (going deep into the new stuff), (eg:
ipadm, dladm, tuned versus vanilla, etc), Pillar storage, OEL/OL (Oracle
Linux)... Anyone who wants to volunteer would be most welcome. :)
See below for topics/speakers.
If you want to get someone else subscribed to this list - send them here:

Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks can
be planned.

*** NOTE THAT THIS ADDRESS IS THE ORACLE BUILDING ***
When?
***Wednesday*** May the 21st at 18:00 for general
discussion and merriment.
Speakers start at 18:30 sharp, with Pizza arriving somewhere around
20:00ish.
Speakers / Topics will mostly be (Expect this to be revised with more
stuff as more people volunteer):
- Nathan Kroenert - talking about Solaris 11.2 - what's new and why
we care. (And how it is that Solaris just got a whole lot more interesting)
I'm looking for Topics/Speakers for *next* month as well.
Soft drink, coffee/tea and Pizza will be available. (YES - FOOD.)
**If you plan to attend, please reply NOW to
[email protected] so that we
can plan for seating / pizza / drinks!**
To anyone who meets with or talks to folks interested in Solaris: Please
let everyone know about the meeting, the time and the date. We would
love to continue to continue to grow the group.
A note on access: The Lifts in the building and entrance to Level 5
automatically lock early in the evening, so access will be provided by
Oracle folks on-site. A sign will also be placed close to the ground
floor lifts with a contact number, should you arrive after the start of
the meeting.
If you are interested in Solaris, doing interesting things with, or on
Solaris, we want YOU!
Cheers!
