Thanks Jg,

Driver removal is successful. Driver_detach is called for all the devices and 
then _fini.

I tried to add the alias for the second driver after adding the first driver.
# update_drv -a -i '"xxxx,xxxx"' mod_name
I see an error message saying the alias already exists " already in use as a driver 
or alias."
If I remove the driver and then use this command, it says "driver not 
installed". But it adds an entry to the driver_aliases. This entry is not deleted by 
the rem_drv command. Am I doing something wrong?

1. how does the devfsadm calls the attach for each device, if we provide the 
device_id in add_drv command (add_drv -i ....)?
2. How does it know the device instance numbers for each attaching device? I 
have read that the /etc/path_to_inst keeps this record for the next boot and is 
read only at the boot time. Who gives this info if we use add_drv/update_drv?


Thanks,
MK.


Manish,

You need to use a more recent build.  The "already in use as a driver or alias"
problem was addressed in build 106 and the support for dynamically
switching aliases that I mentioned was introduced in build 109.

Cheers!
