Re: [osol-discuss] @Oracle employees: OpenSolaris updates up to Solaris 11
Solaris 11 express is not even official. Oracle employees are very likely not allowed to share details, sun's days where they could talk about what was next are over On Wed, Aug 18, 2010 at 11:59 AM, Stephan Ferraro wrote: > I'm curious to know how the migration from OpenSolaris snv_134 to Solaris 11 > Express will happen. > The simplest solution would be to run simply "pkg image-update" on global and > local zones. > > I hope it would not be required to have two separate physical servers to do > the migration (it would explode the costs at hosting services). > > I hope too that the kernel will be still open source in Solaris 11. > -- > This message posted from opensolaris.org > ___ > opensolaris-discuss mailing list > opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org > ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] @Oracle employees: OpenSolaris updates up to Solaris 11
I'm curious to know how the migration from OpenSolaris snv_134 to Solaris 11 Express will happen. The simplest solution would be to run simply "pkg image-update" on global and local zones. I hope it would not be required to have two separate physical servers to do the migration (it would explode the costs at hosting services). I hope too that the kernel will be still open source in Solaris 11. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] @Oracle employees: OpenSolaris updates up to Solaris 11
Dear Oracle employees, could you please provide OpenSolaris updates up to that Solaris 11 comes out? It makes no sense for everybody here to switch to Solaris 10 which has less features than OpenSolaris. Specially updates of Sunstudio would be great. Thanks to forward my message to your managers. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
