format /dev/ad10 or /dev/ad10s0 for getting the whole Disk as one volume in hammer

[Siju George]

Hi,

I fillted 2 drives to my backup server

No policy for ad8 specified, or policy not found
disk scheduler: set policy of ad8 to noop
ad8: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500418AS CC38> at ata4-master SATA150

and

No policy for ad10 specified, or policy not found
disk scheduler: set policy of ad10 to noop
ad10: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500418AS CC38> at ata5-master SATA150

I have the following device files

ad8
ad8s0

ad10
ad10s0

in /dev

What is the best way to format them under hammer?

# newfs_hammer -L Backup3 /dev/ad8
# newfs_hammer -L Backup3 /dev/ad10

or

#  newfs_hammer -L Backup3 /dev/ad8s0
# newfs_hammer -L Backup4 /dev/ad10s0

also should I set a scheduler policy?

And How do I find the hard disk specified serial No. of these dirves?

thanks
