I had the impression with a stable release and a service contract,
OpenSolaris could be also be used in production enviroments. I think the Sun
fire x2250 server, now it's E-O-L, was one of SUNs servers that also listed
opensolaris as one of the supported OS. I think non of Oracle's current Sun
servers lists both Solaris and OpenSolaris as supported OS, they only list
solaris 10. but as usual i can be wrong ;)
Minimum OS release level for sun X2250:
* Solaris 10 10/08 or later
* OpenSolaris 2008.11 OS
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 U6 (AS) (32-bit/64-bit) or greater
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 U1 (32-bit/64-bit) or greater
* SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1 (64-bit) or greater
* Windows 2003 (32-bit) SP2 or greater (Web/Standard/Enterprise Editions)
* Windows 2003 (64-bit) or greater (Standard/Enterprise Editions)
