Logical partitioning divides a physical disk into logical devices based on its original method, and not based on the disk slice management provided by the VTOC.
In a Solaris(TM) Operating System, physical disks can only be partitioned to a maximum of 7disk slices (physical slices).
GDS allows users to use physical disks and objects equivalent to disks dividing them into a maximum of 1024 logical devices.
For details, see "Logical Volume" and "sdxvolume - Volume operations."
