Hi all,

Im new to Solaris/OpenSolaris so maybe my questions might sound stupid. My only 
sol confrontation was a short test-setup of sol10 1year ago.

Is OpenSolaris already ready to be used? Or is it still in a stage where its 
only interesting for OpenSolaris developers? 

Currently i dont need it for production, but still i prefer it when my 
test-servers run stable ;o) Mostly im interested into ZFS and Zones - are both 
already usable in OpenSol? 

Might it be a problem to install Sol remote on a dedicated machine without 
physical access to the machine? (Just an estimation between "yes possible" or 
"dont even try it").

I really like debian on my serves because of the package repository backing it. 
But with openSol? Maybe i should consider nexenta in this case or? 

But mostly its not only the problem of creating an intial setup running all 
necessary programs - how to keep them up to date? How to keep the core up to 
date? I expect that a distribution like Nexenta will do that like debian did 
it, but OpenSolaris itself is just the core OS or im wrong? (are there update 
strategies available?)

Is OpenSolaris binary compatible with Sol 10 itself?

thx for your feedback
Bernhard Neuhauser
