Sun Enterprise 6x00, 5x00, 4x00, and 3x00 Systems Dynamic Reconfiguration User's Guide

I/O Device Reconfiguration

The DR reconfiguration sequence is the same as the Solaris reconfiguration boot sequence (boot -r):


drvconfig; devlinks; disks; ports; tapes;

When the reconfiguration sequence is executed after a board is configured, device path names not previously seen by the system are entered into the /etc/path_to_inst file. The same path names are also added to the /devices hierarchy and links to them are created in the /dev directory.
