Pardon me for asking what might be obvious to others but is not to me; why are folks upgrading production systems to Solaris Express regardless of version?

IMHO this is glorious news! I plan to immediately contact my account manager, retract the scathing words I had said, and find out the future and if the future is bright we will resume testing to augment (maybe someday replace) ESX. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___

Does that mean that xvm is supported to use solaris 11 express as Dom0 ? Yes, the xVM packages are still present in 2010.11 although there are known issues with them. And though the packages are there and I can't speak to the dom0 roadmap, I should point out the following approved ARC case from
