Support for Descriptive Names in Solaris Volume Manager

This system administration enhancement is new in the Solaris Express 12/05 release.

Descriptive names for both volumes and hot spare pools enable system administrators to name volumes and hot spare pools by using any name that follows the naming guidelines. Additionally, the -D option has been added to the metstat command. This option enables the user to list volumes and to list hot spare pools with descriptive names.
