I am under the impression that dedupe is still only in OpenSolaris

true? I would like to use ZFS and the dedupe capability to store
multiple virtual machine images. The problem is that this will be
in a production environment and would probably call for Solaris 10
instead of OpenSolaris. Are my statements on this valid or am I off
track?
If dedup gets scheduled for Solaris 10 (I don't know), it would surely
not be available until at least a year from now.
Dedup in OpenSolaris still seems risky to use other than for
experimental purposes. It has only recently become available.
