How to add Disk to a Solaris?

Anup - Tuesday, November 18, 2008
If you want to add disk with Sun Solaris server. You just shut down the Machine and attached the disk. Start the machine and execute the following command (#devfsadm). After executing this command sun refresh the device list.
I am describing here example for adding disk on VM (SUN SOLARIS)
Step: 1 shut down the VM
Step: 2 go to the Vmware setting
Step: 3 add a new hard disk device
Step: 4 Start Virtual machine and execute one of the following Method:
Method: 1 Open terminal and type following command:
# devfsadm
Method: 2 open terminal and type following command:
# touch /reconfigure
# reboot
After adding the physical disk. You must format the disk, partition the disk, create file system and mount the file system.
We will discuss How to Format the Disk? in next session.
