4.18.3 System Buffer Flushing Function
The logical drive to be flushed can be specified by the following two methods. One method
is that logical drive (e.g., G:\hd1 drive, as below) is specified immediately, but this method
must know about the logical drive which corresponds to a group before executes the sync
command. Also the volume is mounting by a directory and this method requires to find its
volume name. To solve such a complication, CCI supports new method that flushes the
system buffer associated to a logical drive through finding a volume{guid} which corresponds
to a group of the configuration file. This method does not depend on mounted point, so that
it is possible to flush the volume mounted by a directory. This method is supported to be
specified a group to the “raidscan -find sync” command.

The following example flushes the system buffer associated to ORB group through $Volume.
raidscan -pi $Volume -find sync -g ORB
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_000[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk1 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_001[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk2 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_002[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk3 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
The following example flushes the system buffer associated to all groups for the local
instance.
raidscan -pi $Volume -find sync
[SYNC] : ORA ORA_000[-] -> \Vol44\Dsk0 : Volume{56e4954a-28d5-4824-a408-3ff9a6521e5d}
[SYNC] : ORA ORA_000[-] -> \Vol45\Dsk0 : Volume{56e4954a-28d5-4824-a408-3ff9a6521e5e}
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_000[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk1 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_001[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk2 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
[SYNC] : ORB ORB_002[-] -> \Dmt1\Dsk3 : Volume{bf48a395-0ef6-11d5-8d69-00c00d003b1e}
Note: Windows NT does not support the LDM volume, so the user must specify $LETALL
instead of $Volume.
