The majority response was not to use Metatool for RAID 5...it is not as
reliable as Veritas Volume manager...which is not officially on Solaris
7...(atleast from what I can see on Veritas web site). Even if I want to use
it ..it still has the limitation of only 7 slices that I always disliked
about Solaris....Lastly....DUH!!..I ran fdisk instead of format...how the
hell in world did that get through my keyboard...I guess I have been playing
a little too often on Linux lately...thanks...to Jeff Woosley for pointing
that out.
