Hi Predrag, what speaks against using OI in server use? I did that for the last few years without problems. What do you think is missing?

For serious use (if Oracle Solaris is out of question) I would use one of SERVER distributions, mentioned here: http://wiki.illumos.org/display/illumos/Distributions (SmartOS is maybe best choice. Of course I do not know what needs you really have) Personally I use /hipster from OI for every day job (is that production use?) and despite some problems and missing bits, I found it very stable and fairly good to use (consider latest Firefox, OpenSSH/OpenSSL/OpenLDAP, OpenOffice, LibreOffice /SFE/, TimeSlider, VirtualBox, etc).
