I've never had issues with Supermicro boards. I'm using a similar model and everything on the board is supported. I recommend buying either the oracle hardware or the nexenta on whatever they recommend for hardware. Definitely DO NOT run the free version of solaris without updates and expect it to be reliable. That's a bit strong. Yes I do regularly update my supported (Oracle) systems, but I've never had problems with my own build Solaris Express systems. I waste far more time on (now luckily legacy) fully supported Solaris 10 boxes! what does it mean?
Solaris 10 live upgrade is a pain in the arse! It gets confused when you have lots of filesystems, clones and zones.
I am going to install solaris 10 u10 on this server.it <http://server.it> that any problem about compatible? and which version of solaris or solaris derived do you suggest to build storage with the above hardware.
I'm running 11 Express now, upgrading to Solaris 11 this weekend. Unless you have good reason to use Solaris 10, use Solaris 11 or OpenIndiana. -- Ian. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
