Solaris 9 9/05 Release Notes

device_driver Path-Name Support in add_drv System Command

The add_drv command accepts a path-name specification for the device_driver parameter. This feature might be removed in a future release.

In the Solaris 9 software, the following warning message is written to STDERR when a path name is specified:


Warning: pathname support will be discontinued in future releases of add_drv.

During the installation process, warning messages that are generated by the use of the path-name specification appear in the install_log file.
