[Sol10/VMWare] Unable to see new disk space.

The master copy was set to 5 gigs. As the instance is cloned, additional space is provided. I was given a new instance along with 15 gigs of additional space. The problem is I can't see the additional space, either as additional space on the primary disk or as a second disk.


Code:
# format
Searching for disks...done


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c1t0d0 <DEFAULT cyl 2044 alt 2 hd 128 sec 32>
          /pci@0,0/pci1000,30@10/sd@0,0
Specify disk (enter its number): 0

Current partition table (original):
Total disk cylinders available: 2044 + 2 (reserved cylinders)

  9 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)          0

I've used devfsadm with -c disk and -v and also touch /reconfigure, reboot but the new space isn't available. I checked with the vmware admin (a windows guy) and he's assured me he assigned the 15 gigs to my instance and that there's nothing else he needs to do.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Carl
