95% responses are:
Yes, just connect and partition to fs smaller than 2 GB.
Or buy Online Disk Suite software.
Only 3 response said:
No, you can not use because of OS limitation.
1 response:
They use nmrpipe (which compiled on SunOS) on solaris 2.x. look like works.
So, I would like to ask another question:
How good chance we have if we run the program which compiled on SunOS under
Solaris 2.x system.
With all information, I connected our disk, partitioned as 1G, 1G and 2G. Mounted.
Works fine. Thank you again!
