Resizing LUNs Greater Than 1 Tbyte

When a LUN is created larger than 1 Tbyte, the Solaris operating system identifies the
LUN as an EFI drive. If the LUN is later rebuilt to less than 1 Tbyte, it retains the EFI
label. If you want the LUN to revert back to SMI labeling, the format -e |
label

command is required.

To relabel a LUN to less than 1 Tbyte, perform these steps:

Note –

In this example, the LUN being relabeled is c1t2d3.

1. Type the

format

command in a terminal window:.

2. At the format> prompt, type

3. Select option 0 (SMI).
