devfsadm -Cv gave a lot of "removing file" messages, apparently for items that were not relevant.
cfgadm -al says, about the disks, sata0/0::dsk/c13t0d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/1::dsk/c13t1d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/2::dsk/c13t2d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/3::dsk/c13t3d0 disk connected configured ok I still get the same error message, but I'm guessing now that means I have to create a partition on the device. However, I am still stymied for the time being. fdisk can't open any of the /dev/rdsk/c13t*d0p0 devices. I tried running format, and get this AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c12d1 <DEFAULT cyl 19454 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /p...@0,0/pci-...@1f,1/i...@0/c...@1,0 1. c13t0d0 <drive type unknown> /p...@0,0/pci1043,8...@1f,2/d...@0,0 2. c13t1d0 <drive type unknown> /p...@0,0/pci1043,8...@1f,2/d...@1,0 3. c13t2d0 <drive type unknown> /p...@0,0/pci1043,8...@1f,2/d...@2,0 4. c13t3d0 <drive type unknown> /p...@0,0/pci1043,8...@1f,2/d...@3,0 Specify disk (enter its number): 1 Error: can't open disk '/dev/rdsk/c13t0d0p0'. AVAILABLE DRIVE TYPES: 0. Auto configure 1. other Specify disk type (enter its number): 0 Auto configure failed No Solaris fdisk partition found. At this point, I not sure whether to run fdisk, format or something else. I tried fdisk, partition and label, but gut the message "Current Disk Type is not set." I expect this is a problem because of the "drive type unknown" appearing on the drives. I gather from another thread that I need to run fdisk, but I haven't been able to do it. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
