Hi,

mkdev returns 1 as exit code without changing its state from
Define
and making available a device with the given device class (-c Class
flag),
type (-t Type flag), subclass (-s Subclass flag), connection location
(-w ConnectionLocation flag), and the device logical name of the parent
(-p ParentName flag)

what i have tried was..

# rmdev -dl ent1
ent1 deleted

# mkdev -c adapter -s pci -t 14106902 -w 32 -p pci6
Method error (/usr/lib/methods/define_rspc):
0514-022 The specified connection is not valid.

Can any one trace this?

Thanks

honestly, i have no idea why you want to create a device manually
instead of running cfgmgr to let system recognize new changes. but i
did do the same thing as you.

i had one disk device in fastT and i needed to change the hdiskX to
hdiskY. so, i ran command lsattr to check the parent and class first
and then used command mkdev to creat the device manully.
example:
lsdev -Cl hdisk5 -F "parent class subclass type connwhere" -H

mkdev -p A -c B -s C -t D -w E -l F

good luck,

Frank
