Solaris 10 additional drives
I'm trying to add a second volume to my solaris 10 install.

I added a second disk to the parallels virtual machine and then booted into solaris.

It appears it can see the drive but I can't do anything with it.

What do I need to do to get this drive setup so Solaris can use it?
