sync

Write data to drives

Windows NT/2000/2003 only

Description

The sync command writes unwritten data remaining on the
Windows NT/2000/2003 system to the logical and physical drives.

If the logical drives designated as the objects of the sync command is not
opened to any applications, then sync flushes the system buffer to a drive
and performs a dismount.

If the logical drives designated as the objects of the sync command are
already opened to any applications, then sync only flushes the system
buffer to a drive.

The sync command will accept a Volume{GUID} as well as the device
object name. If you specify a Volume{GUID}, then RM will convert the
Volume{GUID} to a device object name on execution.
