How to Disable System Integrity Protection
The System Integrity Protection setting isn’t stored in Mac OS X itself. Instead, it’s stored in NVRAM on each individual Mac. It can only be modified from the recovery environment.
To boot into recovery mode, restart your Mac and hold Command+R as it boots. You’ll enter the recovery environment. Click the “Utilities” menu and select “Terminal” to open a terminal window.
Type the following command into the terminal and press Enter to check the status:
csrutil status
You’ll see whether System Integrity Protection is enabled or not.
To disable System Integrity Protection, run the following command:
csrutil disable
If you decide you want to enable SIP later, return to the recovery environment and run the following command:
csrutil enable
Restart your Mac and your new System Integrity Protection setting will take effect. The root user will now have its full, unrestricted access to the entire operating system and every file.
If you previously had files stored in these protected directories before you upgraded your Mac to OS X 10.11 El Capitan, they haven’t been deleted. You’ll find them moved to the /Library/SystemMigration/History/Migration-(UUID)/QuarantineRoot/ directory on your Mac.
