Yep, that looks okay if the system will let you do that whilst it's multi-user.

Otherwise resort to single user.

I think that ought to fix it.

Strange! What version of Solaris is this exactly?

Is this old enough to still have a boot archive?

Scratching head!

Another thought is have you power cycled the box since removing the LUN?

Shouldn't do, but perhaps the HBA still has the LUN discovered and just thinks that it's gone offlline and is coming back.

Code:
bash-3.2# cat /etc/release
                      Solaris 10 10/09 s10s_u8wos_08a SPARC

                           Assembled 16 September 2009

I'll go unplug it now.

Yup, it didn't help at all.

I finally got it fixed. I had to delete all the references in /dev/dsk, /dev/cfg/(controller) and /dev/rdsk, pwercf -q, powermt check (then remove all), powercf -q and finally a powermt save...

What a sequence!

Hicks, thanks for your help. That's two beers I owe you.

Hi Dustin,

Glad to hear that your problem is solved. If you know which devices / LUN to remove, the below powerpath commands can be used to remove them.

powermt remove force dev=cXtXdX ( replace with correct ctd number)
powermt display paths
powermt check ( will prompt you to remove dead paths)
powermt config
powermt save

This is better and safe than fiddling with solaris devices under /dev/dsk.
