Hi,
I'm currently doing some tests on a SF15K domain with Solaris 10
installed.
The target is to convince my cu to use Solaris 10 for this domain AND
establish a list of recommendations.
The ZFS perimeter is really an issue for me.
For now, I'm waiting for fresh informations from the backup software
vendor about ZFS support. No ZFS-acl support could be annoying.
Regarding "system partitions" (/var, /opt, all mirrored + alternate
disk), what would be YOUR recommendations ? ZFS or not ?
/var for now must be UFS since Solaris 10 doesn't not have ZFS root
support and that means /, /etc/, /var/, /usr. I've run systems with
/opt as a ZFS filesystem and it works just fine. However note that the
Solaris installed puts stuff in /opt (for backwards compat reasons,
ideally it wouldn't) and that may cause issues with live upgrade or
require you to move that stuff onto your ZFS /opt datasets.
