Managing Hot Plugable controllers

Suspending a driver instance

You must suspend the driver instance bound to a controller before power can be turned off to its slot. If the controller supports multiple devices, you must suspend each driver instance bound to a device.

To suspend (unbind) a driver instance, select a device, then select Operations -> Suspend Driver .

When a driver is successfully suspended, ``none'' appears in the Driver Name field next to the slot icon, and the driver name and ID appear in the Suspended Driver Instances list.

You can use ndstat(1M) to verify that a network driver is suspended.
