Volume Manager Installation
Menu: VolumeManager/Install

The Volume Manager names disks on your system using the controller
and disk number of the disk, substituting them into the following
pattern:

ctd

Some examples would be:

c0t0d0 - first controller, first target, first disk
c1t0d0 - second controller, first target, first disk
c1t1d0 - second controller, second target, first disk

The Volume Manager has detected the following controllers on your system:

c0: io-unit@f,e0200000/sbi@0,0/dma@0,81000/esp@0,80000
c1: io-unit@f,e0200000/sbi@0,0/SUNW,soc@3,0/SUNW,pln@a0000000,74127a
c2: io-unit@f,e1200000/sbi@0,0/SUNW,soc@3,0/SUNW,pln@a0000000,740f85

Hit RETURN to continue.

Menu: VolumeManager/Install

You will now be asked if you wish to use Quick Installation or
Custom Installation. Custom Installation allows you to select how
the Volume Manager will handle the installation of each disk
attached to your system.

Quick Installation examines each disk attached to your system and
attempts to create volumes to cover all disk partitions that might
be used for file systems or for other similar purposes.

If you do not wish to use some disks with the Volume Manager, or if
you wish to reinitialize some disks, use the Custom Installation
option Otherwise, we suggest that you use the Quick Installation
option.
Hit RETURN to continue.

The c0t0d0 disk is your Boot Disk. You can not add it as a new
disk. If you encapsulate it, you will make your root filesystem
and other system areas on the Boot Disk into volumes. This is
required if you wish to mirror your root filesystem or system
swap area.

Encapsulate Boot Disk [y,n,q,?] (default: n) y

Enter disk name for c0t0d0 [,q,?] (default: rootdisk)

The c0t0d0 disk has been configured for encapsulation.
