I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't find anything in the forums or in the Hardware Management Guide.
I have device special files for disks that don't exist. How do I delete them? I think it would be with dsfmgr but nothing I try works (dsfmgr -D dsk511*).
Here's what I see:
sobds2:/> hwmgr -v d

There are 10 kinds of people, one that understands binary and one that doesn't.

If the disk is not showed in hwmgr v d or hwmgr show scsi, then you can safely remove the device special files using the rm command.
Then run dsfmgr -v
Then run dsfmgr -v
Por que hacerlo dificil si es posible hacerlo facil? - Why do it the hard way, when you can do it the easy way?

Re: How to delete device special files for disks that don't exists
Ivan,
Didn't try 'hwmgr show scsi', that listed a disk with Device File '(null)'. Deleted that via 'hwmgr delete component -id' and those special device names were gone.
Thanks,
Vic
