Chapter 5 Using and Servicing Internal Storage Devices 133
You must follow antistatic precautions when handling a disk drive. Complete
this task:
■ “How to Avoid Electrostatic Discharge” on page 120
What to Do
1. Become superuser or the root user.
2. Insert the drive into its disk drive bay.
Follow Step 2 through Step 10 of “How to Install a Disk Drive” on page 125. The
system responds with the following message.
3. Type the ls command to list the current system’s c1t1d* devices.
The output confirms there are no links present for the inserted drive.
4. Type the following devfsadm -C command to initialize devfsadm device driver
links:
Note – The default devfsadm operation is to attempt to load every driver in the
system and attach the drivers to all possible device instances. devfsadm then
creates device special files in /devices and logical links in /dev. The -C option
also removes any dangling links.
