SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/remove_allocatable  [-f] -n name

       /usr/sbin/remove_allocatable  [-f] [-d] -t dev-type

DESCRIPTION
       remove_allocatable removes entries of user allocatable devices from the
       device allocation mechanism. remove_allocatable also removes entries of
       some  non-allocatable  devices,	such as printers, whose label range is
       managed by the mechanism.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -d	      Removes	system-supplied	  default  attributes  of  the
		      device type that is specified with -t.

       -f	      Force  the removal of an entry. remove_allocatable exits
		      with an error if this option is not  specified  when  an
		      entry with the specified device name no longer exists.

       -n name	      Removes the entry for the device name.

       -t dev-type    Removes devices of type dev-type.

EXIT STATUS
       When successful, remove_allocatable returns an exit status of 0 (true).
       remove_allocatable returns a nonzero exit status in  the	 event	of  an
       error. The exit codes are as follows:
