内容説明
OpenSolaris is a rapidly evolving operating system with roots in Solaris 10, suitable for deployment on laptops, desktop workstations, storage appliances, and data center servers from the smallest singlepurpose systems to the largest enterpriseclass systems. The growing OpenSolaris community now has hundreds of thousands of participants and users in government agencies, commercial businesses, and universities, with more than 100 user groups around the world contributing to the use and advancement of OpenSolaris. New releases of OpenSolaris become available every six months, with contributions from both Sun engineers and OpenSolaris community members; this book covers the OpenSolaris 2008.11 release.
Pro OpenSolaris was written to demonstrate that you can host your open source applications and solutions on OpenSolaris, taking advantage of its advanced features such as containers and other forms of virtualization, the ZFS file system, and DTrace. It's assumed that you are already fairly knowledgeable about developing on Linux systems, so the authors give an overview of the similarities and differences between Linux and OpenSolaris, and then present details on how to use the Service Management Facility (SMF), ZFS, zones, and even a bit of DTrace. They also provide pointers to the many project communities associated with new OpenSolaris features. Special focus is given to web development using familiar applications such as Apache, Tomcat, and MySQL, along with the NetBeans IDE, and showing you how to exploit some of OpenSolaris's unique technologies.
What youll learn
- Discover the secrets of the ZFS, the most powerful file system ever conceived
- Explore OpenSolaris AMP (Apache, MySQL, PHP) and GlassFish in the context of Web 2.0 and Linux/Solaris, respectively
- Familiarize yourself with the new security administration features of OpenSolaris, including changes in DTrace
Who this book is for
Linux system administrators and programmers who would like to know what they have missed since Solaris became an open-source operating system.

You'll want to start using OpenSolaris now!

Pro OpenSolaris is an excellent primer to Sun's new operating system - OpenSolaris! The book provides a great introduction to OpenSolaris for anyone not accustomed to a UNIX environment and a great transition guide for anyone looking to transition from older UNIX or Linux platforms. Administrators familiar with earlier Solaris versions will find Pro OpenSolaris a benefit in transitioning to the latest technologies such as the Zetabyte File System (ZFS) and the various ways to employ virtualization. The fluid discussions and excellent screenshots allow the user to quickly learn the ins and outs of the system. This book has shown how easy it is to get an OpenSolaris system up and running and all the fun that can be had for both legacy Solaris users and Linux users alike!

Great introduction and exploration

This book is written in an informal, conversational style that makes it easy and fun to read. Unlike other introductory texts, however, this one provides a wealth of technical knowledge and experience, and assumes a minimum level of familiarity with Linux/Unix. It covers everything that makes OpenSolaris an interesting addition to the free software ecosystem. I particularly enjoyed the chapters on Containers, ZFS, DTrace, and SMF.
I would have liked to see a little more coverage on the OpenSolaris community and development processes work, and a little less focus on how things are done in the Linux world. Overall, however, the book does a great job of exploring all of the material you need to get started with OpenSolaris.
I hope you have some extra time on your hands, because this is the kind of book that makes you want to install OpenSolaris and tinker with it for hours.

Great guide for the uninitiated!

I just got this book today and am already half way through it, it's a great read, authors keep your attention while preserving a level of discussion not too newbie- ish but not too high- level either.
Yes, you could search and search for days through the maze of online articles on OpenSolaris, but this book is more than a compilation of online material.
Its main focus is on the hallmarks of OpenSolaris that make it such a great system, authors explain it in a way that motivates you to try it on your own and join the crowd of Solaris- initiated enthusiasts.
A tiny word of caution: you have to have at least some familiarity with Linux (in any flavor) and its command- line. That familiarity becomes handy to keep up with the discussion.
I have never thought of OpenSolaris as anything more than yet another Linux distro until I got this book.
I hope more from these authors is on the way regarding OpenSolaris, keeping this style and level of discussion.
On a sad note, it seems the OpenSolaris project itself stalled after Oracle took over Sun. Let's hope that's gonna change...
