SUMMARY: Ultra2 w/ Clariion array

Thank you to Ronald Loftin,  Bertrand_Hutin@notes.amdahl.com, and Jeff Pitts for
replying.

I editted the sd.conf file and voila, problem solve.

Ronald Lofton's reponse:
ou will need to modify /kernel/drv/sd.conf to allow the disk driver to see
devices with LUN numbers other than 0.  Here's an example:

name="sd" class="scsi"
        target=0 lun=0;

name="sd" class="scsi"
        target=0 lun=1;

name="sd" class="scsi"
        target=0 lun=2;

name="sd" class="scsi"
        target=0 lun=3;

After you add entries to your sd.conf as appropriate for your site and
reboot, in the "format" command, you should see additional devices appear as
you expect.

Bertrand_Hutin@notes.amdahl.com's response:
I do not know the Clariion, but I have played with EMC Symmetrix and Amdahl
LVS. In both case the disks are seen as many LUNS  on the same SCSI target
(even connected by fiber).
sometimes on Solaris you need to customize sd.conf, adding more targets and
more Luns.

Jeff Pitts's response:
You should see the three LUN's as a cxtxdx device using the format utility
after the dassmgr shows them as enabled.  You shouldnt have to change the
partitions, but it may be necessary to label them again.  If you are using
Veritas you will need to reboot, or execute the command to force the
discovery of the new devices...it something like vxvolctl stop, then start,
but Im not sure.  Rebooting will work as well.
