Labeling and partitioning the devices Label and partition the new devices using the Oracle format utility: CAUTION: When selecting disk devices, be careful to select the correct disk because using the label/partition commands on disks that have data can cause data loss. 1. Enter the format command at the root prompt to start the utility. 2. Verify that all new devices are displayed. If not, enter quit or press Ctrl+D to exit the format utility, and then verify that the configuration is correct (see "Configuring virtual disks from the host" (page 66)). 3. Record the character-type device file names (for example, c1t2d0) for all new disks. You will use this data to create the file systems or to use the file systems with the Solaris or Veritas Volume Manager. 4. When prompted to specify the disk, enter the number of the device to be labeled. 5. When prompted to label the disk, enter Y. 6. Because the virtual geometry of the presented volume varies with size, select autoconfigure as the disk type. 68 Configuring application servers
