Toying around with xmpp and the wave-protocol.
Worth keeping an eye on this stuff.

Opensolaris & VirtualBox 3.1
Keeps locking up my system. Appending snooping=1 to /etc/system enables the solaris dead man timer and might yield a crash dump. We'll see ;)

clouds, agile infrastructure and tools
We're currently using puppet to setup our physical and virtual (zones & vmware vms) solaris boxen. Puppet is a step into the right direction but only part of the solution - a handy tool to describe, setup and manage single systems, replacing the trusty old shell scripts every administrator has in his tool belt.
With puppet, you can describe how your application server should look, how your database server should look but not how this two interact.
You can't describe relationships between two or more puppetized hosts.
You can't tell puppet that the application server service should not start until the database is ready.
There are tools which are able to handle this cases. Capistrano and ControlTier come to mind.

zoned, centralized solaris container management
Did some design work, speced the overall architecture and wrote a proof of concept / throw away prototype which you can find at:

My ruby is quite rusty, good to have something to work on again. Why ruby you may ask. Well puppet, my favorite tool at the moment, is written in ruby, I like the smell of the language more than that of my code and last but not least - sex sells.
Feedback as always welcome.

Puppet gets an internal DSL

dladm create-vnic -l e1000g0 vnic1
dladm create-vnic -l e1000g0 vnic2
dladm show-vnic
zonecfg -z zone1
zonecfg:zone1> create
zonecfg:zone1> set zonepath=/export/home/zone1
zonecfg:zone1> set autoboot=true
zonecfg:zone1> set ip-type=exclusive
zonecfg:zone1> add net
zonecfg:zone1:net> set physical=vnic1
zonecfg:zone1:net> end
zonecfg:zone1> verify
Works as expected. Good stuff better late than never...
