Installing the Adapter With Dynamic
Reconfiguration
If you have a Sun Enterprise system that supports dynamic reconfiguration (DR),
you do not have to reboot your system after installing the adapter.
The process of adding and configuring an adapter with DR involves (1) connecting
the attachment point and (2) configuring its occupant. In most cases, the
cfgadm (1M) command can perform both steps at once.
