In contrast to the procedure in the preceding section, this procedure shows how to unconfigure one device associated with c2::50020f2300006107 and leave the other device, 50020f2300006077, configured. Only devices on a fabric-connected host port can be unconfigured through the cfgadm unconfigure command.
# cfgadm -al Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition c0 fc-fabric connected configured unknown c0::50020f2300006077 disk connected configured unknown c0::50020f23000063a9 disk connected configured unknown c1 fc-private connected configured unknown c1::220203708b69c32b disk connected configured unknown c1::220203708ba7d832 disk connected configured unknown c2 fc-fabric connected configured unknown c2::50020f2300005f24 disk connected configured unknown c2::50020f2300006107 disk connected configured unknown
In this example, c0::50020f2300006077 and c2::50020f2300006107 Ap_Ids represent different port WWNs for the same device.
Note - If the Ap_Id represents the last configured path to the device, stop all activity to the path and unmount any file systems on it. If the multipathing device is under any volume manager’s control, see the documentation for your volume manager for maintaining the fabric device.
In the example that follows, the path represented as c2::50020f2300006107 is unconfigured, and c0::50020f2300006077 remains configured to show how you can unconfigure just one of multiple paths for a multipathing device.
# cfgadm -c unconfigure c2::50020f2300006107
# cfgadm-al Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition c0 fc-fabric connected configured unknown c0::50020f2300006077 disk connected configured unknown c0::50020f23000063a9 disk connected configured unknown c1 fc-private connected configured unknown c1::220203708b69c32b disk connected configured unknown c1::220203708ba7d832 disk connected configured unknown c2 fc-fabric connected configured unknown c2::50020f2300005f24 disk connected configured unknown c2::50020f2300006107 disk connected unconfigured unknown
The devices associated with that Ap_Id are still available to a host using the Solaris 10 OS through the other path, represented by c0::50020f2300006077. A device can be connected to multiple Ap_Ids and an Ap_Id can be connected to multiple devices.
