    Welcome to anyone running or interested in running Tribblix! Yes, it's a hobby project, but it's built to my standards which I hope are good enough to make it useful. It would be nice to know what sorts of things people might be using Tribblix for, and what other people consider its strengths and weaknesses. (After all, it's perfect for me, by definition.)

    Built for the server room. OmniOS Community Edition is the go-to illumos distribution for production deployments: lean, stable, and focused on what matters. Discuss zones, ZFS, networking, LX-branded zones, or your production architecture here.

  • Zones, ZFS, bhyve, KVM - the cloud's best-kept secret.

    Zones. ZFS. bhye. KVM. The cloud's best-kept secret. SmartOS brings the full power of illumos to hypervisor and container workloads. Discuss installations, vmadm, imgadm, Triton, or just share how you're using SmartOS to quietly run circles around the competition.

    Where the sun never sets on open-source Unix. illumos carries forward the legacy of OpenSolaris with technologies that the rest of the world is still catching up to: ZFS, DTrace, Zones, and Crossbow networking. Whether you're running a home lab or a production environment, this is where you'll find fellow illumos enthusiasts. Pick your distribution below, or post here for general illumos discussion, kernel topics, and cross-distribution questions.
