Setting up Logical Volumes in Solaris 10
I have just created two RAID 0 ( Stripped ) devices through Storage Manager and can see them as d0 and d1 ( /dev/md/dsk/d0 and d1 appear to exist )

However how do I now mount these devices ? The manual talks about creating a UFS of LOFS filesystem. Do I need to do this ?

I have create /u01 and /u02 at root to accommodate a mount of these logical volumes but do I need to actually create anything else ?

I thought all I would have to do would be to make an VFSTAB entries as below :

/dev/md/dsk/d0 /dev/md/rdsk/d0 /u01 ufs 2 yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d1 /dev/md/rdsk/d1 /u02 ufs 2 yes -

Should the entry say ufs or lofs ?

any help appreciated,
Jim

mkdevmaps

mkdevmaps(1M)                                             System Administration Commands                                             mkdevmaps(1M)

NAME

       mkdevmaps - make device_maps entries

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/mkdevmaps

DESCRIPTION

       The  mkdevmaps  command  writes  to standard out a set of device_maps(4) entries describing the system's frame buffer, audio, and removable
       media devices.

       The mkdevmaps command is used by the init.d(4) scripts to create or update the /etc/security/device_maps file.

       Entries are generated based on the device special files found in /dev. For the different  categories  of  devices,  the  mkdevmaps  command
       checks for the following files under /dev:

       audio           /dev/audio, /dev/audioctl, /dev/sound/...
       tape            /dev/rst*, /dev/nrst*, /dev/rmt/...
       floppy          /dev/diskette, /dev/fd*, /dev/rdiskette, /dev/rfd*
       removable disk  /dev/dsk/c0t?d0s?, /dev/rdsk/c0t?d0s?
       frame buffer    /dev/fb
