once out growfs /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0. newfs /export/home. restore /export/home

something to this effect.
Any of these items need to be done in single user mode per se?

I'm following your thought here - makes sense - but I'm just trying to apply what I know.

Thanks for the insight. I will start doing some RTFM before I post more 'WTF'.
