Hi,
         You need to use gpart for larger partitions than 1.2TB.  eg. 
on my backup server, I have

% df
Filesystem  1K-blocks       Used      Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a    1982798    483298    1340878    26%    /
devfs                1         1          0   100%    /dev
/dev/da1s1d   30462636  10321258   17704368    37%    /usr
/dev/da1s1e   35038378   3770818   28464490    12%    /var
/dev/da0s1d   64210664  44212108   14861704    75%    /var/db
/dev/da2p1  2761826016 716207954 1824671982    28%    /backup
