Any using OpenIndiana on the daily for anything? If so, what? You have any pro-tips or tricks for folks looking to dig in?
Asides from some tinkering getting bonding working the way I wanted it to on two NICs I never have to screw with it or worry about it at an OS level.
Note that I dont like the "all in one" approach to storage or running anything but the bare minimum on my storage itself. So the fact that docker/etc/etc isnt available is fine. All this thing runs is NappIT (ZFS management, like FreeNAS), Monit and Smartd.
It has a bunch of things that are just so far ahead of Linux/ZoL. Big one is timeslider (auto snapshot management) and the sheer glory that is boot environments. Once you have those its hard to downgrade. Upgrade went bad/not working? Reboot to previous boot environment and done. Back to the previous version/working state. Like VMware snapshots but on the bare metal boot drives.
My one wish is for it to be more current with ZFS features. It was ahead of ZoL for so long... Now I just want ZFS encryption to make it to OpenIndiana so I can use that without changing away from OpenIndiana.
