Sun N1 Service Provisioning System User's Guide for OS Provisioning Plug-In 3.0

Configuring Additional Disks

The profile_additional_disks_base_config variable provides the ability to format and configure disks in addition to the root disk. Use the format cntndn to identify each additional disk.

The following example illustrates a three-disk configuration. The root disk is c0t0d0 and is defined using the variable profile_usedisk_base_config. The profile_additional_disks_base_config variable identifies two additional disks: c0t1d0 and c0t1d1 For each disk slice, a directory name is specified along with a size for that directory.

profile_usedisk_base_config = c0t0d0 
profile_additional_disks_base_config = c0t1d0s0!/export/mydisk1!5000MB|c0t1d1s0!/export/mydisk2!6000MB

When you run the provision_start plan on the Solaris profile, appropriate files will be created to configure the two disks, with appropriate mount points and slices.
