Yesterday i made a mistake on AIX 6.1 system.. I created two special devices on same hdisk , while creating devices using mknod command.
These devices had to be used for Oracle ARC implementation. While searching on internet for any command like rmnod , i realized that there is no such command available atleast on AIX. Some variants of linux do have rmnod command , but not AIX...
So what should be solution? After long research i concluded that best way to resolve this problem would be to delete hdisk device itslef. I deleted the device using rmdev -dl hdisk7 and all corresponding special devices ( which i created using mknod command ) were gone... Happ enough result!!
As far as I remember, in all Unices you can remove a node as a usual file with `rm` command. Why do you need a special command for that?
