8.7.4

Removing an Inbox Driver/Package on the Solaris 11 OS (Bootable LSI Controller)

Perform the following procedure to remove the inbox driver/package on the Solaris 11 OS that is on a bootable
LSI controller.

1.

Become a super-user on your system.

2.

Check to see which MegaRAID driver package is installed on your system by using the following command:

# modinfo | grep mr_sas

To find the inbox mr_sas package name, run the following commands:

#pkg list | grep mr_sas

driver/storage/mr_sas ----> inbox mr_sas IPS packagename

3.

If an inbox IPS package is installed, rename inbox driver files by using the following commands.

For x86 systems:

#mv /kernel/drv/mr_sas /kernel/drv/mr_sas.inbox

#mv /kernel/drv/amd64/mr_sas /kernel/drv/amd64/mr_sas.inbox

#mv /kernel/drv/mr_sas.conf /kernel/drv/mr_sas.conf.inbox

For SPARC systems:

#mv /kernel/drv/sparcv9/mr_sas /kernel/drv/sparcv9/mr_sas.inbox

#mv /kernel/drv/mr_sas.conf /kernel/drv/mr_sas.conf.inbox

4.

Continue with the instructions in

Section 8.6, Installing or Upgrading the Driver Package after OS Installation

, to

complete the installation of the LSI driver package.

Notes

The following are known limitations:

The mr_sas driver is not loaded (attached) in the Solaris 10 Update 4 version when you use certain controllers.
This issue is an OS limitation. This issue is fixed in Solaris 10-Update 5 and later.

In the Solaris 11 OS, the action Install Time Update (ITU) of the driver is not supported. The Solaris 11 OS requires
IPS packaging; it does not support the legacy Solaris 10 OS ITU install method.
