sync
Usage
sync [-a <action>] [-l <LdId>]
Summary
The sync command monitors the progress of background synchronization.
Background synchronization makes logical drive consistent. It starts
automatically when a redundant logical drive is created. But unlike initialization,
background synchronization allows read and write operations on the logical drive.
If an initialization starts, the background synchronization pauses until the
initialization has finished.
Since background synchronization is starts, pauses, and resumes automatically,
there is no need for start, stop, pause, or resume functions.
Options
-a <action> Specifies the action to perform.
list (Default) Displays active and paused synchronization and
their status.
start Starts a synchronization.
stop Stops a synchronization.
pause Pauses a synchronization.
resume Resumes a paused synchronization.
list (Default) Displays the current background
synchronization activities and their status.
-l Specifies the logical drive ID on which background
synchronization is running.
Examples
sync
sync -a start -l3
sync -a list -l3
