I've changed the subcommand to init-phys. Yes, there are some minor changes 
after UV is PSARCed, I will need to file a PSARC case to cover all those 
changes.

I am not sure whether that is requirement. This is similar to the case that 
you simply removed a NIC while system shutdown, and reboot the system 
without the "-r option". I think in that case, the entries in 
/etc/dladm/datalink.conf could be preserved, but those physical links should 
be marked as "removed".
