Title: Expanding a disk slice

Hi

  I require to expand a disk slice , here is my plan

  1. Backup of data on slice 1
  2. Unmount slice 1 & 3
  2. Via the format cmd
       Reduce the size of slice 3 to 0 (this is not currently used)
       Realloc slice 1 to include the cyls from slice 3
       perform a label back to disk
  3   Remount slice 1 and run newfs
  4.  Restore from step 1
  5.  remove slice 3 from vfstab


  Questions

   a. Is this the correct method and am I missing anything
   b. slices 0,4,5 etc contain data, will this be lost during this process
