Configuring or Unconfiguring a SCSI Controller

Use one of the following commands depending on the operation you want to perform:

  • cfgadm -c configure controller – configures a controller.

  • cfgadm -c unconfigure controller – unconfigures a controller.

In both commands, the controller refers to the controller number. For more information about the controller number, see About Attachment Point Identification.

The following example unconfigures the SCSI controller c2.

# cfgadm -c unconfigure c2

The following example shows the state of the c2 controller after it has been unconfigured. In the displayed information, the Occupant field indicates the controller's new state.

# cfgadm -al
