[OpenIndiana-discuss] rpool not using full extended partition after reinstall

[Ron Parker]

I reinstalled OpenIndiana on one of my machines. It had been in the
first extended partition which was about 20GiB. After reinstalling it
is closer to 8, but the extended partition size is the same. Is there
any way to fix this?

I don't recall which OI device rpool was originally on c3...something.
But it currently shows up as c3d0s0. Running format shows it as:

   c3d0 <Unknown-Unknown-0001 cyl 1042 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63>

and partition print displays:


Current partition table (original):
Total disk cylinders available: 1042 + 2 (reserved cylinders)

Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders        Size            Blocks

but fdisk show the following information for the extended partitions:

Number of cylinders in disk              : 30401
Beginning cylinder of extended partition : 12814
Ending cylinder of extended partition    : 30401

6       15425      29356      13932     46    191 (Solaris2)
7       29357      30401      1045      3     130 (Solaris)

Any idea what's up?

Thanks,
