It depends what you want to do with it. You can choose to use it as either a simple disk, slice it and use it; or you can add it to a volume group and then use LVM to help manage it, which is far more flexible.
Can you show us the output from:-
I would generally suggest adding the LUN to a volume group, then creating or extending logical volumes and filesystems to suit your needs. What plans do you have for the space?

Hello guys,
It would be so nice of you if someone can provide me with these informations.

hpfc(7D) Devices hpfc(7D)NAME
hpfc - Agilent fibre channel host bus adapter
SYNOPSIS
PCI pci103c
DESCRIPTION
The hpfc fibre channel host bus adapter is a SCSA compliant nexus driver that supports all Agilent fibre channel host bus adapters, includ-
ing the HHBA5100x, HHBA5101x, and HHBA5121x models. Agilent host bus adapters support the fibre channel protocol on private fibre channel
arbitrated loops and fabrics. The driver supports up to ten host bus adapters, with a maximum of 125 fibre channel devices on each host bus
adapter. The hpfc driver supports a maximum of 256 LUNs per target.
The hpfc driver does not support the BIOS Int 13 feature, which enables the booting of an operating system. As a result, you should not
install an operating system on devices attached to the hpfc driver.
CONFIGURATION
The hpfc driver attempts to configure itself using the information in the /kernel/drv/hpfc.conf configuration file.
By default, the driver supports only LUN 0 for each target device. To add multiple LUN support, modify the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file.
Before upgrading the hpfc driver, backup the sd.conf file to save customized LUN settings and then use pkgrm(1M) to remove the old version
of the driver.
The host bus adapter port is initialized to FL_Port when connected to a fabric switch. To change it to F_Port, add the init_as_nport=1
entry to the hpfc.conf file and reboot the system.
To conserve system resources, at least one disk drive must be attached to the hpfc driver. If no devices are attached, the driver will not
load.
