        Hello managers,

        I installed a new 9Gb disk onto my station.
        When I look at >>>show dev, I have 9,12Gb (Model MAB3091SP)
        but after making disklabel -rw /dev/rrz1c /dev/rrz1c
        my disk label shows :

# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg]
  a: 131072 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 52*)
  b: 262144 131072 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 52*- 158*)
  c: 17824700 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 -7187*)


        My questions : partition c=17824700, does'it mean the disk
        space is only 8.9 Go ?? Why the difference between show device
        and disklabel ??

        Any idea ?

        TIA

        JEAN
