The problem really was a disconnected power cable inside enclosure.
I apologize for wasting valuable time and resources.
I would like to thank especially Darren Dunham who communicated
back and forth on this case.
I placed the 250 GB IDE disk on Blade2000 (should also work on Ultra10)
scsi chain to get the disk up quick. Solaris 8 (Generic_108528-12),
OPB 4.2.4.
Format sees it now:
4. c0t14d0 <ATA-WDC WD2500PB-15.0 cyl 60563 alt 2 hd 64 sec 126>
/pci@8,700000/scsi@6,1/sd@e,0
Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
0 root wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
1 swap wu 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
2 backup wu 0 - 60562 232.88GB (60563/0/0) 488380032
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 usr wm 0 - 30280 116.44GB (30281/0/0) 244185984
7 unassigned wm 30281 - 60562 116.44GB (30282/0/0) 244194048
Note: 232.88 GB size in machine = 250 GB size by vendor x 0.9313
where 0.9313 = (1000/1024 kb) (1000/1024 kb)
(1000/1024 kb).
format.dat was not needed.
