Sun Microsystems 280R manual Physically remove the disk drive and press the Return key

4.Physically remove the disk drive and press the Return key.

Follow the instructions in Step 2 through Step 7 of “How to Remove a Disk Drive” on page 122. The system responds with the following message:

Hit <Return> after removing the device( s). <date> <systemname> picld[87]: Device DISK1 removed Device: /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2

No FC devices found. - /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2.

The picld daemon notifies the system that the disk has been removed, and (in this example) that no other FC-AL devices were found.

5. Type the ls command to list the current system’s c1t1d* devices.

#ls /dev/ rdsk/ c1t1d*

/dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s4 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s5 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s6 /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s7

The system responds with all the logical links present in the directory.

6.Type the following devfsadm -Ccommand to initiate devfsadm cleanup subroutines:

#devfsadm -C

Note –The default devfsadm operation is to attempt to load every driver in the system and attach these drivers to all possible device instances. devfsadm then creates device special files in /devices and logical links in /dev. The devfsadm -Coption cleans up the /dev directory and removes any dangling logical links to the device link names.

7. List the system’s current c1t1d* device links again.

#ls /dev/rdsk/c1t1d* No match

The output confirms that the cleanup command has removed all dangling links, and the operating environment can proceed to use the remaining devices.
