System Administration Commands                        rem_drv(1M)



NAME
     rem_drv - remove a device driver from the system

SYNOPSIS
     rem_drv [-b basedir] device_driver

DESCRIPTION
     The rem_drv command  informs  the  system  that  the  device
     driver  device_driver  is  no  longer  valid.  If  possible,
     rem_drv unloads  device_driver  from  memory.  rem_drv  also
     updates the system driver configuration files.

     If rem_drv has been executed, the next time  the  system  is
     rebooted  it  automatically  performs a reconfiguration boot
     (see kernel(1M)).

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -b basedir      Sets the path to the root directory  of  the
                     diskless  client. Used on the server to exe-
                     cute  rem_drv  for  a  client.  The   client
                     machine  must  be  rebooted  to  unload  the
                     driver.


                     Note -  The root file  system  of  any  non-
                             global  zones must not be referenced
                             with the -b option. Doing  so  might
                             damage  the  global zone's file sys-
                             tem, might compromise  the  security
                             of the global zone, and might damage
                             the non-global zone's  file  system.
                             See zones(5).



EXAMPLES
     Example 1: Removing the sd Driver

     The following example removes the sd driver from use:

     example% rem_drv sd

     Example 2: Removing a Diskless Client

     The following example removes the driver from the sun1 disk-
     less client. The driver is not uninstalled or unloaded until
     the client machine is rebooted.

     example% rem_drv -b /export/root/sun1 sd
