Thanks to all that responded. I really appreciate your information
and advice.

The answer to this question seems to be 16TB as of the 6/06 release
of Solaris 10 or maybe even an earlier one. It will work on either
UFS or ZFS file systems. My preference is ZFS but for those that like
UFS, no problem there. There's a lot of documentation on docs.sun.com
that many referenced and which I should have checked first before
posting. Sorry about that....

Thanks again....

Frank
