The new disk and its logical device name appear at the top of the list. Check the
file creation date to make sure it matches the current time and date. In the
example above, the logical device name for the new disk is
c0t3d0
.
Configuring the New Disk Drive In Your
Application
Continue adding the disk by following the instructions for your specific application:
4
“Configuring the New Disk Drive for a UNIX File System (UFS)” on page 18
4
“Adding a Disk to a Solstice DiskSuite Disk Set” on page 19
Caution - These procedures should be performed only by a qualified system
administrator. Performing hot-plug operations on an active disk drive may result in
data loss if performed incorrectly.
Configuring the New Disk Drive for a UNIX
File System (UFS)
Use the following procedure to configure a slice (single physical partition) on a disk
to be used with a UFS file system. For instructions about adding a file system to a
Solstice
TM
DiskSuite
TM
(SDS) logical disk, refer to the documentation that came with
your application.
1. Verify that the device label meets your requirements.
You can use the
prtvtoc
command to inspect the label for your disk. To modify
the label, use the

command. Refer to the
prtvtoc(1M)
and
format(1M)
man pages for more information.
