User Commands                                       deallocate(1)



NAME
     deallocate - device deallocation

SYNOPSIS
     deallocate [-s] [-w] [-F] [-z zonename] device

     deallocate [-s] [-w] [-F] [-z zonename] -g dev-type

     deallocate [-s] [-w] [-F] [-z zonename] -I

DESCRIPTION
     The deallocate command frees an allocated device. It  resets
     the  ownership  and  permissions on all device special files
     associated with the device, disabling access to that device.
     deallocate runs the device  cleaning program for that device
     as specified in device_allocate(4).

     The default deallocate operation deallocates  devices  allo-
     cated to the user.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -F device       Forces deallocation of the device associated
                     with  the  file  specified by device. Only a
                     user with the solaris.device.revoke authori-
                     zation is permitted to use this option.



     -I              Forces deallocation of all allocatable  dev-
                     ices.     Only     a     user    with    the
                     solaris.device.revoke authorization is  per-
                     mitted  to  use  this  option.  This  option
                     should only be used  at  system  initializa-
                     tion.



     -s              Silent. Suppresses any diagnostic output.



     The following options are supported if the system is config-
     ured with Trusted Extensions:

     -g dev-type             Deallocates a device of device  type
                             matching dev-type.
