Solaris 11 FS1 LUN expand only shows some new space

Hello,

I am searching for an answer to a problem dealing with FS1 Storage LUN expansion and seeing the new space on our T5-4 servers/Guest LDOMs. Our Storage Team expanded 4 LUNs on a Solaris 11 zone. 2 LUNs were expanded from 200 GB to 575.2 GB and 2 LUNs were expanded from 200 GB to 888.5 GB.

We have done this exercise previously, but with smaller expansions. After the change by the Storage Team, I ran format/partition/expand on all 4 of the disks, however, they all only expanded slice 2 to 511.95. I was able to go in and add the extra cylinders to slice 6, which is the slice ASM uses, but it only expanded, of course, to the 511.98 size slice 2 is, so I'm left with missing space allocated from the FS1, but unseen on the Solaris server.

Howdy, Stranger!
