I am currently using opensolaris snv_134 have just bought some 3 TB disks to
upgrade a 8 disk mirror of 2 TB disks. I though this should just work as
opensolaris can use EFI partiton tables, but giving zfs the whole
unformatted disk results in the following partition table and pool size.
what does isainfo -k report?

This only provides a small performance workaround for drives using 4K
sectors internally but presenting 512b sectors. It does nothing to enable a
partition to be greater than
in 2009.06 version, rpool can't larger than 2TB, but other zpool can.

I have not heard that any Solaris* can use disk/partition in zpool,
larger then 2TB. Maybe you can try partitioning disk with 2+1TB
I can find various comments about 3TB boot disks are not going to work and
hints that 3TB data disk should be fine. I could not find any posts saying
3TB don't
test being the single 3 TB disk pool.
My google skills seem week on this problem, as I seem to be only able
to
find stuff about 4kb sectors and not being able to boot 2TB yet.
Can I use 3TB disks, if so how?

What does this mean? Typically an LBA
