Dear Friends
I tried to upgrade drive from 2TB to 12 TB. OS is OpenIndiana 151a8.
I offline the drive from Raidz poolPlace a new drive into Raidz pool
But before issuing "zpool attach" command, i proceed with "format" commandThe result is :
Available Disk Selections :0. c4d0 <drive type unknown>  /pci at 0,0/pci-ide at 11/ide at 0/cmdk at 0,0
Specify disk (enter its number) : 0Error : can't open disk '/dev/rdsk/c4d0p0'.Segmentation Fault (Core Dumped)
========================
Another attempt to directly install from DVD, also fails. There is a warning that only 2TB will be usable
========================
Another attempt to use fdisk also fails fdisk - w /dev/rdsk/c4d0
Result :fdisk : Cannot Open Device /dev/rdsk/c4d0
========================
Perhaps anybody have guidance on how to prepare Large Disk into OI
Thanks
