But when talking to basho they say the no longer support OmniOS/illumos/Solaris. Anyone else heard this, should I be worried and be forced to run on Linux with ZoL or god forbid LVM?

Riak and OmniOS should get along fine; it's just not a first class
platform for Basho anymore. Anyone who had an interest in illumos-based
operating systems left the company. They don't have the people to
properly field support calls for it.

If you run into issues I'm happy to provide consulting services. OmniTI
should also have the knowledge to do the same.
