Basically I'm wondering if oSolaris can dynamically handle a DC going down, and 
allowing new clients to authenticate against a new DC.

In my environment (Home) I have 3 DCs in the same site, oSolaris will pick one, which I 
understand is verified through "smbadm list", and if that DC goes down (is not 
any sort of Role Master) it will not attempt an Auth against another DC.  If I restart 
the smb/server it does appear to pick up another DC and my clients (Windows boxes) can 
reconnect.

Is there any way to have OpenSolaris try each DC?

Not yet. See http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6779186
