Unconfiguring and Reconfiguring Devices

To support a degraded boot capability, the OpenBoot firmware provides the asr-disablecommand, which enables you to unconfigure system devices manually. This command “marks” a specified device as disabled, by creating an appropriate status property in the corresponding device tree node. By convention, the Solaris OS does not activate a driver for any device so marked.
