I'm hoping to work with the subset of triage-a-thon participants that's interested in Solaris over this weekend. I've fix my mini storage server network interface which runs OpenIndiana. So this triggered some interest in all the Solaris related Puppet tickets and some of the new features in Solaris 11 that's buggy or yet to be implemented. Here's the github repo and the readme list the tickets I'm trying to tackle: https://github.com/nanliu/puppet-solaris If you don't write puppet code, please review the outstanding Solaris tickets: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/issues?query_id=199 Some of the facts such as LDOM is a bit difficult without the appropriate hardware, and IPS pkg list output is slightly different between different versions of Solaris, so if you have access to sparc, or various versions of Solaris it would be helpful for me to get the output from your system. For those that can't participate, I'm hoping to have a module after the triage-a-thon that's helpful for testing all the Solaris related patches and for use with older versions of Puppet.
