Good day, Can someone please explain me an update policy for OpenSolaris release builds.
In example, I've tested 2009.6 in the test environment and can install it in the production but I'm afraid of the bug # 6882364 (networking wedged up behind blocked taskq_thread() in Xen Dom0). This bug has a state "10-Fix Delivered:Verified (Fix available in build)" but where to get the update? Of course I don't want to switch to the development branch. As well as don't want to wait 6 months to get a release build with the bug fixed. Does someone provide a bugfix patches for the release versions? Maybe there is some commercial support for this? I've found commercial opensolaris support offers on sun.com however there's a note the patch could be available within a 6 months, which's actually a period when stable branches of osol are released. I've tried to talk with Sun support in webchat, they don't know anything except a phone numbers. Support on the phone don't know the details, they can just read for you an info from the public website. I don't complain on Sun support because hiring such parrots in 1st level support is a common practice of all big companies at the present time, so just asking if someone can explain a osol update policy and a ways to get a latest patches. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
