About Manually Configuring Devices
This section explains the difference between deconfiguring a device and a slot, tells
what happens if you try to deconfigure all of a system’s processors, and also
discusses how to obtain device paths.
Deconfiguring Devices vs. Slots
For some devices, different things happen when you deconfigure a slot than when
you deconfigure the device that resides within a slot.
If you deconfigure a PCI device, the device in question can still be probed by
firmware and recognized by the operating system. Solaris OS “sees” such a device,
reports it as failed, and refrains from using it.
If you deconfigure a PCI slot, firmware will not even probe the slot, and the
operating system will not “know about” any devices that may be plugged into the
slot.
