Well how about just porting Xen & DRBD to Illumos. Not so much
"innovation" as simply basic porting. (Now, DRBD is 2-node only,
so maybe Sheepdog - again, not innovation, but incredibly useful.)
You want Xen in illumos? Run DilOS.
For Windows software, what would people need that Wine can't do?
DRBD seems like the wrong question being asked. We can already replicate
filesystems; many times you can replicate data at the application
level (which
is the most sensible place to do it); or move redundant iscsi volumes
about.
There's already some block-level replication in illumos, in the shape of
Availability Suite - although that's probably another candidate for
burning.
Having a real solution for distributed storage would make a lot of
people happy.
