I wonder if there is a limit on the size of disk to mount for Solaris.
I was able to run "format" on a WD 1TB disk several months ago.
The diff is that it's a 2.5TB one this time.

It might also be a driver issue.  Need to ck on that.

honeybun# zpool create test_pool c5t0d0
cannot open '/dev/dsk/c5t0d0s0': I/O error

Thanks,

Kitty,

It wouldn't let me

# zpool create test_pool c5t0d0p0
cannot create 'test_pool': invalid argument for this pool operation

I overlooked the Ultra24 part of your original posting. SPARC platforms don't 
support disks with partitions.

        zpool create test_pool c5t0d0
        zpool destroy test_pool
        format -e c5t0d0
            partition
            print
        <control>D


Thanks,
Kitty

I cannot run format -e to change it since it will crash my sys or
the server I am trying to attach the disk to.

Did you try to do as Jim Dunham said?

     zpool create test_pool c5t0d0p0
     zpool destroy test_pool
     format -e c5t0d0p0
         partition
         print
         <control>D
