This new release, Nexenta Core Platform 1.0 RC2, is based upon OpenSolaris build 80+ with support for in-place (live) and safe upgrades. There is also Nexenta Zones improvements. This release also integrates NWS, AVS, COMSTAR, and an in-kernel CIFS client. Download links and more information for Nexenta Core Platform 1.0 RC2 is available from the project website.
