Thanks. But it seems not the truth. I just recalled a thread in this list and it said SMI lable and EFI label cannot be in one disk. Is it correct?
Let me describe my case. I have a 160GB HDD -- saying c0t0d0. I use OpenSolaris installer to cut a 100GB slice -- c0t0d0s0 for rpool. And I want to use the remaining space for cache device -- assuming c0t0d0s1. But when I use format command, I cannot see the remaining space. artition> p Current partition table (original): Total disk cylinders available: 13048 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 root wm 1 - 13047 99.95GB (13047/0/0) 209600055 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wu 0 - 13047 99.95GB (13048/0/0) 209616120 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 8 boot wu 0 - 0 7.84MB (1/0/0) 16065 9 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 Anyone like me has the similar case?

The reply says it all. :-) Making it happen, is a feature of the installer(s). -- richard -- ZFS and NexentaStor training, Rotterdam, July 13-15, 2010 http://nexenta-rotterdam.eventbrite.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
