Multiterabyte volume support is available only for systems that run a 64-bit kernel. This feature is new in the Solaris 9 4/03 release.
Solaris Volume Manager has been enhanced with multiterabyte volume support. With this support, the Solaris Volume Manager can create, manage, and delete large (>1Tbyte) RAID-0 (stripe), RAID-1 (mirror), RAID-5, and soft-partition volumes. In addition, this large volume support enables Solaris Volume Manager to construct volumes on large or EFI-labeled logical unit numbers (LUNs).
Solaris Volume Manager large volume support is not available for systems that run a 32-bit Solaris kernel. For example, systems that run the Solaris software (x86 Platform Edition) or the Solaris software with the SPARC 32-bit kernel cannot use large volume support.
For further information, see the Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide.
