Full Discussion: Need EMC Symmetrix driver for AIX 5.3
Operating Systems AIX Need EMC Symmetrix driver for AIX 5.3 Post 302377618 by C.J.Hund on Friday 4th of December 2009 12:14:33 PM

Thanks for the tip. That didn't seem to work, though. I was able to find the EMC driver for AIX 5.3 and get that installed. I was told that I then need to remove the EMC hdisks and run cfgmgr again to get them to pick up the new driver. When I run either the chdev or rmdev commands, I see this "device is busy" message:

root@********:/dev# chdev -l hdisk495 -a pv=yes
Method error (/usr/lib/methods/chgdisk):
0514-062 Cannot perform the requested function because the
specified device is busy.
pv

Do you know what I need to do to remove those devices?

Sincere thanks,
C.J.
