The problem really was a disconnected power cable inside enclosure.
I apologize for wasting valuable time and resources.

I would like to thank especially Darren Dunham who communicated
back and forth on this case.

I placed the 250 GB IDE disk on Blade2000 (should also work on Ultra10)
scsi chain to get the disk up quick. Solaris 8 (Generic_108528-12),
OPB 4.2.4.

Format sees it now:

       4. c0t14d0 <ATA-WDC  WD2500PB-15.0 cyl 60563 alt 2 hd 64 sec 126>
          /pci@8,700000/scsi@6,1/sd@e,0

Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders         Size            Blocks
  0       root    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  1       swap    wu       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  2     backup    wu       0 - 60562      232.88GB    (60563/0/0) 488380032
  3 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  4 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  5 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  6        usr    wm       0 - 30280      116.44GB    (30281/0/0) 244185984
  7 unassigned    wm   30281 - 60562      116.44GB    (30282/0/0) 244194048

Note: 232.88 GB size in machine = 250 GB size by vendor x 0.9313
                                  where 0.9313 = (1000/1024 kb) (1000/1024 kb)
(1000/1024 kb).

format.dat was not needed.
