It works fine. An upgrade using image-update will create a new boot
environment and you can switch back and forth between them if you have
issues with OpenIndiana. Basically a new snapshot is created and your
old OpenSolaris doesn't get touched.
Just don't upgrade your zfs pools to the latest versions of ZFS while
you're on OpenIndiana - if you do that, you can't go back and boot
into your OpenSolaris environments anymore. I did that... now I need
to back up my RAIDZ and reinstall everything from scratch and then
restore the data if I want to go back to OpenSolaris. :)
After my upgrade to OI 148 I have issues with SSH (specifically, X
forwarding) and Samba that I need to try to find a solution to, but
that may be just me.
