Terminals and modems are most easily removed using SAM, because
SAM also removes the getty entries in /etc/inittab and ensures that inittab is reread. However, it is also a simple matter to remove a terminal or
modem using HP-UX commands. If users will be affected, notify them in advance about the
change. The terminal or modem to be removed cannot be in use; it
must be inactive. Create a backup copy of the /etc/inittab file by copying it. Edit the /etc/inittab file to remove or modify any getty entries for the terminal. Refer to inittab(4)
in the HP-UX Reference. Activate the updated /etc/inittab file by typing Update any software application configurations that
use the moved terminal or modem. Refer to your software application
documentation for specific instructions. If you are removing the terminal or modem, unplug
and disconnect it. If you are moving the terminal or modem, add the terminal
or modem to the system at the new hardware location, following the
instructions found in “Configuring HP-UX
for an HP Terminal or for a Modem ”,
earlier in this chapter.
