Fiber Channel StorageTek Array Visible to OS

I installed a FC array for the first time and everything looks OK
in mpathadm, cfgadm, but I don't know what to do next.

Code:
# stmsboot -L
non-STMS device name                    STMS device name
------------------------------------------------------------------
/dev/rdsk/c2t1d0                /dev/rdsk/c4t600A0B80004876380000035348E0A274d0
/dev/rdsk/c3t5d0                /dev/rdsk/c4t600A0B80004876380000035348E0A274d0

Code:
# format

Specify disk (enter its number):

If I select 3 it says
[disk formated]
Disk no labeled. Label it now?

I used the Common Array Manager (CAM) to set this up with a pool,
virtual disks, and hosts, but should I format the disk?

What is the next procedure here to view the 272 GB? Smilie
