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.

Anyone like me has the similar case?

Thanks.

Fred

Yes.

The reply says it all. :-)

Making it happen, is a feature of the installer(s).
