Roelof, 


'Production' - We've actually been trusting it to one section of our production environment; it's been bulletproof. It is, though, tough to put any useful quantitative profile on just how hard we're pressing it. We do run lots of databases, software builds, etc. - rock solid thus far. 


Blastwave: No usey. SunFreeware: As a long-time fan of Steve Christensen and his Good Works, I'm trying to meld two of my loves: OpenIndiana and SunFreeware (this is like introducing one of your girlfriends to your wife; I'm not quite sure yet how to do it!) On the one hand, the Oi gang are working hard to stay current. On the other, We still have lots of need to do custom builds, and Steve's stuff has saved us lots of time. I'm still working on getting definitive statements from the Oi crew about how to make it all 'hang together'. For example, I'm told the /usr/local path is no longer de rigeur. I'm not yet quite clear myself on what the Rules of The Road are... 


Glassfish: Have had it running (believe Oi includes v2?), and have begun to integrate 3.1 - in abeyance at the moment. Your concerns about the Java licensing matters are interesting, though; you've created another point of research - and now, worry - for me!

Thanks all for the warm welcoming. 
Who is using OpenIndiana in a production environment? Is it risky or just as good as Solaris used to be? 

Has anyone used Glassfish on OpenIndiana? I read some previous posts but it seems that Oracle created a nice smoke curtain around the licenses. 
As far as I know now I can download and install the Opensource Glassfish 3.0.1 and the seperate JDK1.6_023 without problems/additional licenses. But if I download the bundled Java EE 6 Web Profile SDK then I may only TEST it. 

Can I still use blastwave and Sunfreeware?

Roelof, 


Lots of life. You've come to the right place. (this coming from a fellow junkie!) Lou Picciano

I just want to know if there is life in the OpenIndiana community and if OpenIndiana is the right alternative for a lonely Solaris addict.
