Removing a LUN/disk in Solaris 10

807759Jul 20 2008 — edited Feb 26 2009

What is the Correct(TM) way to remove a disk/LUN on a Solaris 10/SPARC box, with multipathing? Can this method be followed if the LUN was removed externally already (SAN)?

I have a server in this situation - LUN removed - which has 'phantom' entries in format and still shows up in cfgadm (as unusable). I have tried "cfgadm -c unconfigure <device>". The system still seems to be running fine, but it does not seem to be an ideal situation. And I need to shuffle around more LUNs.

Thanks.

PS I would like to be able to remove the LUN/disk (properly) without a reboot, since this is a 24x7 environment.
