System Utilities - File Management

sync (part of the fileutils package) 4.0 Copy Policy: GNU/GPL sync writes any data buffered in memory out to disk. This can include (but is not limited to) modified superblocks, modified inodes, and delayed reads and writes. This must be implemented by the kernel; The sync program does nothing but exercise the sync system call. The kernel keeps data in memory to avoid doing (relatively slow) disk reads and writes. This improves performance, but if the computer crashes, data may be lost or the filesystem corrupted as a result. sync ensures everything in memory is written to disk. sync (part of the fileutils package) Home Page Publisher: The GNU Project Download Source Code (1.143M) Download Red Hat RPM (0.452M)
