This section describes various SCSI hot-plugging procedures that you can perform with the cfgadm command.
Note - The SCSI framework generally supports hot-plugging of SCSI devices. However, you should consult your
hardware documentation to confirm whether hot-plugging is supported for your SCSI devices.
These procedures use specific devices as examples to illustrate how to use the cfgadm command to hot-plug SCSI
components. The device information that you supply, and that the cfgadm command displays, depends on your
system configuration.
All of the procedures in this section require administrative privileges that are not generally granted to user accounts.
For more information, see How to Use Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Oracle Solaris Administration: Security
Services.
Note - If the SCSI device is not supported by the cfgadm command, the device does not display in
the cfgadm command output.

# cfgadm -c disconnect c1
WARNING: Disconnecting critical partitions may cause system hang.
Continue (yes/no)? y
Caution - This command suspends all I/O activity on the SCSI bus until the cfgadm c connect command is used. The cfgadm command does some basic checking to
prevent critical partitions from being disconnected, but it cannot detect all cases.
Inappropriate use of this command can result in a system hang and could require a
system reboot.

Unconfigure the dedicate dump device and retry the cfgadm operation.
Become an administrator.
Reconfigure the controller.
An occupant, which represents a hardware resource, such as a USB device, that might be
configured into the system
A receptacle, which is the location that accepts the occupant, such as a USB port
Attachment points are represented by logical and physical attachment point IDs (Ap_Ids). The
physical Ap_Id is the physical path name of the attachment point. The logical Ap_Id is a user-friendly
alternative for the physical Ap_Id. For more information on Ap_Ids, see cfgadm_usb(1M).
The cfgadm command provides the following USB device status information.
Receptacle State
Description
The device is not physically connected.

disconnected/unconfigured The device is logically disconnected and unavailable, even though
the device could still be physically connected.
The device is logically connected, but unavailable. The device is

external hub, which is connected to port 5 of first-level external hub, which is connected to the first

You can unconfigure a USB device that is still physically connected to the system. However, a driver will
never attach to the device. Note that a USB device remains in the prtconf output even after that device
is unconfigured.
1. Become superuser.
2. Unconfigure the USB device.
For example:
# cfgadm -c unconfigure usb0/4.7
Unconfigure the device: /devices/pci@8,700000/usb@5,3/hub@4:4.7
This operation will suspend activity on the USB device
Continue (yes/no)? y
3. Verify that the device is unconfigured.

A USB device configuration defines how a device presents itself to the operating system. This
method is different from system device configurations discussed in other cfgadmsections.
Some USB devices support multiple configurations, but only one configuration can be active at a
time.
Multi-configuration devices can be identified by examining the cfgadm -lv output. Nconfigs will
be greater than 1.
The default USB configuration is configuration 1. The current configuration is reflected in cfgadm lv output as Config.
Changes to the default configuration persist across reboots, hot-removes, and the reconfiguration of
the device, as long as the device is reconnected to the same port.
