<P><STRONG>Purpose</STRONG>
<P>Forces the Cache Manager to discard a mount point
<P><STRONG>Synopsis</STRONG>
<PRE><B>fs flushmount</B> [<B>-path</B> &lt;<VAR>dir/file&nbsp;path</VAR>><SUP>+</SUP>] [<B>-help</B>]
<B>fs flushm</B> [<B>-p</B> &lt;<VAR>dir/file&nbsp;path</VAR>><SUP>+</SUP>] [<B>-h</B>]
</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
<P>The <B>fs flushmount</B> command removes from the cache all information
associated with each mount point named by the <B>-path</B>
argument. The next time an application accesses the mount point, the
Cache Manager fetches the most current version of it from the File
Server. Data cached from the associated volume is not affected.
<P>The command's intended use is to discard information about mount
points that has become corrupted in the cache. (The Cache Manager
periodically refreshes cached mount points, but the only other way to discard
them immediately is to reinitialize the Cache Manager by rebooting the
machine.) Symptoms of a corrupted mount point included garbled output
from the <B>fs lsmount</B> command, and failed attempts to change
directory to or list the contents of a mount point.
<P>To flush cached data rather than a mount point, use the <B>fs flush</B>
or <B>fs flushvolume</B> command.
<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
<DL>
<P><DT><B>-path
</B><DD>Names each mount point to flush from the cache. Partial pathnames
are interpreted relative to the current working directory, which is also the
default value if this argument is omitted.
<P><DT><B>-help
</B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
</DL>
<P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
<P>The following command flushes from the cache the mount point for user
<B>pat</B>'s home directory:
<PRE> % <B>fs flushm /afs/abc.com/usr/pat</B>
</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
<P>The issuer must have the <B>l</B> (<B>lookup</B>) permission on the
ACL of the root directory of the volume that houses the file or directory
named by the <B>-path</B> argument, and on the ACL of each directory that
precedes it in the pathname.
