BUT if we are at discussing NFS for distributed stroage: What are your

Would you go for that?
My last knowledge of Linux NFSv4 vs. Solaris NFSv4 is that they don't
interoperate. This was about a year ago. I've always had to force
Linux to v3.
They interoprate just fine. The only weird thing is how the linux
people implemented their pseudo-filesystem - make sure to add "fsid=0"
to your exports via 'exportfs'. So to transition from v3 to v4, they
require you administratively to make a change or otherwise your
Opensolaris clients won't be able to mount the linux server. And yes
they are planning on fixing it.

If you see something that doesn't work, let us or the linux people know.
