How to Create a File-Based SCSI Logical Unit

This procedure shows you how to create a regular, file-based SCSI logical unit, with a 10-Gbyte backing store.

  1. Initialize the file.
    # mkfile 10g /lu_0_store
    
  2. Create a logical unit by using a backing store.
    # sbdadm create-lu /lu_0_store
    
    Created the following LU:
    
             GUID                         DATA SIZE           SOURCE
    --------------------------------  -------------------  ----------------
    6000ae4000144f972b2e486291410001      10737352704      /lu_0_store
    
  3. Verify the creation of the logical unit.
    # sbdadm list -lu
