Virtual Machine and Mapped Raw LUN's

Hello,

I have a server running CentOS 5.1 on a virtual machine. Right now, there is one virtual disk on the system. Below are the result when I run the df commmand:

Filesystem.....1K-blocks.........Used.....Available....Use%.....Mounted on
................................................................................/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
...................99476896.....3153356...91188796.......4%...../
/dev/sda1.........101086........11788........84079......13%..../boot
tmpfs...............527820...............0......527820.......0%..../dev/shm


This is a storage solution, so there are 2, 2TB hard drives attatched to this virtual machine via the san. These two drives are Mapped Raw LUN's. I don't have a lot of knowledge with virtual machines, and no knowledge of san drives and Mapped Raw LUN's. I need to get my unix Virtual Machine to recognize these 2 drives, I need to format them and then mount them to the virtual machine. I would like to use /vol2 and /vol3 for the mounts. I have looked all over the internet, but have had no success finding a solution for this issue. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks,

Kenny.
