The worst is tha when Gnome crash, it takes down the whole system. I coudn't 
even ping the system.
  

After a crash, can you immediately make a copy of /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
and post it?

Re: [osol-discuss] Is OSol 2009.06 ready for production?

2009-08-18 Thread Che Kristo
Realistically OpenSolaris is not at the same level of production readiness
as S10, Indiana releases are much more bleeding edge and have not been as
thoroughly tested as S10 so it is to be expected that they are not as
reliable...

[osol-discuss] Is OSol 2009.06 ready for production?

2009-08-17 Thread Hua
I am not sure if I suppose to ask such a question?

I am in the process of building a samba file server running on home pc. The 
hardware are new and all devices are in HCL. I am currently assessing Solaris 
10 5/09 and OSol 2009.6

Both are default installation without patch(I do not have support contract 
yet), here is some observation

OSol GUI crashed many times in vary occasion, e.g.
1. log out
2. resize window
3. mouse move, etc

The worst is tha when Gnome crash, it takes down the whole system. I coudn't 
even ping the system.

Understand that OSol is new to game thus GUI maybe is not stable, however, 
stress test by running IOZone from 3 clients result system being disconnected 
from network a couple of times.

On the other hand, same stress test on Solaris 10 on the same hardware didn't 
have any issues. No doubt Solaris 10 is commercial product and is meant for 
production use. But OSol is kind disappointing.

So I want to know your experience about OSol in terms of stability(in 
home/casual use, of course not in enterprise environment). Is it ready for 
production? Thanks
