Hi again,
I sort of take that back, here's the past history:
Solaris 10 3/05 = Solaris 10 RR 1/05
Solaris 10 1/06 = Update 1
Solaris 10 6/06 = Update 2
Solaris 10 11/06 = Update 3
Solaris 10 8/07 = Update 4
Solaris 10 5/08 = Update 5
I did say it was a "goal" though.
-
Hi Paul,
I believe the goal is to come out w/ new Solaris updates every 4-6
months and sometimes are known as quarterly updates.
Regards.

Historically I've used hardware raid1 for the boot disks on my servers.
With the availability of ZFS root, I want to explore making the two
underlying drives directly available to the operating system and create a
ZFS mirror to avail of error detection and self-healing.

The fix is already in Solaris 10 U6. A patch for S10U5 will only be

Evidently, but build 90 is closed, and the bits are in. The WOS images
for build 90 are not out yet, but that's a matter of time; the bits are

The issues with CIFS is not just complexity; it's the total amount

By my calculations that makes the possible release date for ZFS boot installer
support around the 9th June 2008. Mark that date in your diary!

So it's pushed back to build 90 now?
There was an announcement the other day that build 88 was being skipped and
build 89 would be the official release with ZFS boot.
Not a big deal but someone should do an announcement about the change.

As best practise, I do snapshot the root filesystem frequently, so that

Hi, Brian
You mean stripe type with multiple-disks or raidz type? I'm afraid
it's still single disk
or mirrors only. If opensolaris start new project of this kind of

As far as root zfs goes, are there any plans to support more than just single
