Managing Disks 23
1. Start the format utility:
The format utility might generate messages about corruption of the current label
on the volume, which you are going to change. You can safely ignore these
messages.
2. Select the disk name that represents the RAID volume that you have configured.
In this example, c1t2d0 is the logical name of the volume.
