Hi All,

Is there a size limitation for a UFS filesystem? I'm running Solaris 8x86
on a Compaq server with a RAID array attached. The array is set up as RAID
ADG (Advanced Data Guarding) and the size is 1.3TB. When I go into Solaris
and try to make a filesystem on this disk, I get:

% format
Searching for disks...
Mode sense page(3) reports nsect value as 63, adjusting it to -95
Error: can't open selected disk '/dev/rdsk/c4t0d0p0'.
done
AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c2t0d0 <DEFAULT cyl 6523 alt 2 hd 255 sec 32>
          /pci@0,0/pcie11,4040@e/sd@0,0
       1. c4t0d0 <drive type unknown>

Thanks in advance!
