How to Repartition Drives in a Disk Set
The metaset
(8) command repartitions drives in a disk set so that a small portion of each drive is reserved for use by Solaris Volume Manager software. In Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) labeled devices, slice 6 is used. The remainder of the space on each drive is placed into slice 0. To make more effective use of the drive, use this procedure to modify the disk layout. If you allocate space to EFI slices 1 through 5, you can use these slices when you set up Solaris Volume Manager volumes.
