Slices are *essentially *how partitions are referred to under Solaris. You
can find more here
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19082-01/819-2723/disksconcepts-20068/index.html

But as to how to slice, you do it the same as you would with any other
UNIX-like system using format/fdisk.

Guidelines:

How to create fdisk partitions and slices:
