maybe try
diag -a
in addition to the rmdev - commands and reboot

did you check the corresponding filesets? devices.pci.yourcardnumber*

Subject: AIX 5L on 43P upgrade from 433ML10 DEVICE ISSUES?

Hi-

I've tried a couple times now to:

         upgrade a 43P from AIX 433ML10 to 5L
         using a "migration install"

The install completes without errors, but after login, both ent0 and
ent1 are in a "defined" state. I can run:

        cfgmgr -vl ent0 (ent1)
        or mkdev -l ent0

and the adaptesr become available and work fine for network traffic.
However, after rebooting, the adapters are again "defined". The cdrom is
completely missing now from "lsdev -C | grep cd"

I've tried removing en0, en1, ent0, ent1 using "rmdev -dl" and then
re-creating the network interfaces. However, everytime I reboot the box
the adapters are back to defined instead of available.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue?

thanks,
-pablo
