Re: Not able to remove device file for internal removed disk.
Are you sure this device is not used? If the device is in open state then you can't delete it.
Regards.

Re: Not able to remove device file for internal removed disk.
was there any disk replacement ? if so in 11iv3 was it done on the same HW path or there was any change.
If this is not in use at all than try
Unbind a driver associated with a node corresponding to the hardware
rmsf -u -H 64000/0xfa00/0x6
Then remove with Critical Resource Analysis (CRA) report.
rmsf -c -H 64000/0xfa00/0x6

Re: Not able to remove device file for internal removed disk.
Yes there was a replacement for the faulted disk on this device path, after replacement new device path generated for replaced disk & this old path remained so we tried to remove it but not ablt to.
cmihx002:/root# rmsf -u -H 64000/0xfa00/0x19e
rmsf: The given device doesn't support driver unbinding feature
Also rmsf -c -H 64000/0xfa00/0x19e, is not coming up with anything as it just hangs.
Thanks & regards,
Kavita

Re: Not able to remove device file for internal removed disk.
Did you follow the procedure for SAS disk replacements?
Maybe not.
Did you do the "pvchange -a n ..." command?
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

SolutionAfter doing "pvchange -a n ..." and swap the disk, do
# sasmgr replace_tgt -D /dev/sasd0 -q old_dev=/dev/dsk/c1t4d0 -q new_tgt_hwpath=0/4/1/0.0.0.11.0
(with your own values!) to redirect the old device file to the new disk.
Then do the procedures as usual...
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
