3. If any disk partitions that the card controls are used for swap space, remove them
from the swap configuration.
4. Use the umount(1M) command to unmount any file systems, including Solstice
DiskSuite™ metadevices, residing on disk partitions controlled by the card.
Note – Use the lockfs command to place a hard lock on the file systems before
unmounting them.
Caution – Unmounting file systems may affect NFS client systems.
5. Remove any Solstice DiskSuite databases from disk partitions that the card
controls.
The location of Solstice DiskSuite databases is chosen by the system user and can be
changed.
6. For any process that directly opens a device or raw partition that the card controls,
either kill the process using the kill command, or direct the process to close the
open device on the card.
7. If a detach-unsafe device is present on the card, close all instances of the device
and use modunload(1M) to unload the driver.
