Cleanup special files create via device match in a whole root zone
I added in the configuration file of a whole root zone the following device match entries:
<device match="/dev/rmt/*"/>
<device match="/dev/sg/*"/>
after the reboot the zone was able to see all the devices of its global zone, and let under /dev/rmt and /dev/sg the special files created with mknod instead of links to /devices (that did not exist).
Now, I want to clean up all the tapes from the whole root zone but not from its global zone. I tried to remove the device match lines and rebooted in several (including touch /reconfigure in the whole root zone and reboot -- -r) ways without luck; I tried going to single user mode and do rm -f and they did not get removed.
Note: I also halted the zone and then I tried to see if the devices were under its <zone rootpath>/root/rmt but they are empty until I boot the zone.
Any idea

zcons(7D) Devices zcons(7D)
NAME
zcons - Zone console device driver
DESCRIPTION
The zcons character driver exports the console for system zones. The driver is comprised of two "sides:" a master side with which applica-
tions in the global zone communicate, and a slave side, which receives I/O from the master side. The slave side is available in the global
zones.
Applications must not depend on the location of /dev or /devices entries exported by zcons. Inside a zone, the zcons slave side is fronted
by /dev/console and other console-related symbolic links, which are used by applications that expect to write to the system console.
The zcons driver is Sun Private, and may change in future releases.
FILES
/dev/zcons/<zonename>/masterconsole
Global zone master side console for zone <zonename>.
/dev/zcons/<zonename>/slaveconsole
Global zone slave side console for zone <zonename>.
/dev/zconsole
Non-global zone console (slave side).
