how to delete a slice in soalris 9
807559Nov 11 2008 — edited Dec 14 2008We have solaris 9 installed. We have slices from u04 to u08 which are smaller in size. Now we have additional disks added. I want to delete the existing slices and recrate the bigger slices . i want to know how to delete the existing slice? And also the effect of deleting a slice is that data on that slice would be lost....no other effect..right?
Here are some of the steps i think i will have to follow....i could not fine the steps in documentation.
unmount u04
remove entry of u04 from vfstab file
use format command
select the disk
partition
what next??
Thanks
