Removing and Replacing an NVMe Storage Drive
Using Oracle Solaris
Note - NVMe storage drives are supported only on servers that are running the Oracle Solaris or
Oracle Linux operating system. Servers that are running Oracle VM, Windows Server, or Red
Hat Enterprise Linux do not support NVMe drives.
The following sections describe how to remove and replace an NVMe storage drive on a server
that is running the Oracle Solaris operating system.

Unmount an NVMe Storage Drive
1.
Log in to Oracle Solaris that is running on the server.
2.
To find the NVMe drive slot number, type:
# hotplug list –lc
This command produces output similar to the following for each of the NVMe drives installed
in the server:
# hotplug list –lc
Connection State Description
Path
------------------------------------------------------------------
pcie13 ENABLED PCIe-Native /pci@7a,0/pci8086,2f08@3/pci111d,80b5@4
3.
To prepare the NVMe drive for removal, that is, detach the device driver and
power off the drive slot, type the following commands:
# hotplug poweroff pcie13
# hotplug list –lc
The following output appears for the NVMe drive that has been unmounted:
# hotplug list –lc
