Hi Gurus,

I have attached a new 3310 SCSI Disk Array to a Sun Netra 20 Server.
When I do a format, I can see the disk array:

AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c1t0d0 <SUN72G cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 424>
          /pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@4/fp@0,0/ssd@w210000008712654a,0
       1. c1t1d0 <SUN72G cyl 14087 alt 2 hd 24 sec 424>
          /pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@4/fp@0,0/ssd@w210000008711e392,0
       2. c3t0d0 <SUN-StorEdge3310-0325 cyl 8785 alt 2 hd 255 sec 255>
          /pci@8,600000/pci@1/scsi@4/sd@0,0

I have modified the controller to set the cylinder/head/sector
settings for big filesystems.

When I try to create filesystem using newfs, it gives me this error. I
am trying to create a filesystem on slice 0 of size 50Gb.

newfs /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0s0
newfs: construct a new file system /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0s0: (y/n)? y
There is no block size that can support this disk

Please Help.

Thanks
