It would help if you tell more about your hardware and symptoms ...

You still say nothing about your hardware.
You still say nothing about the symptoms ...

Are you running Solaris on sparc or x86 or x64 ?
Is this an IDE or a SCSI or a SATA disk ?
What is the format command showing ?

this hard disk is SCSI ultra320 72G and Server OS is Solaris9 for Sparc .
because this SCSI ultra320 72G not setup solaris ,i try add it to another solaris9, with command format, it show server only one harddisk,if i change to SCSI ultra320 36G,it can
find two hard disk and let me label second hard disk(this my new add one 36G),why? update BIOS ?

There's no bios on SPARC hardware, but openboot.

What SPARC server model is it ?

Sorry but can you try to rephrase your problem description in a more intelligible way ?
