Device directory

I have moved 2 fiber cards into the 2 faster PCI slots of a Sunfire v880.

However , in the /devices directory there exists an entry which now points to disks that no longer exist ie for example:

/devices/pci@9,700000/SUNW,qlc@2/ssd@w2100000c50548ed1,0:a

This PCI controller (pci@9,700000) no longer has any fiber cards connected,
but lists Qlogic driver and attached disks. The disks are not located in logical disk directory /dev/dsk.
How can I remove these entries?

Also have an entry for a frame buffer card that is no longer attached

reconfigure your solaris,
several ways to do that:
1. reboot -- -r
2. devfsadm (not sure if only this will help you in this case)
3. have a look at your DR manual (dynamic reconfiguration), you could hot plug PCI card life in a v880... delete the old entries and add the new see "man cfgadm"
