Any help would be appreciated. Thanks (2 Replies)
Ok, I have 4 production systems. There is one NTP server for all four systems. In each system there is one Solaris 10 box that points to that NTP server. All of the other machines in the system point to the Solaris 10 machine to get their time sync.
All four Solaris 10 machines have essentially... (2 Replies)

sync
sync(2) System Calls sync(2)NAME
sync - update super block
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
void sync(void);
DESCRIPTION
The sync() function writes all information in memory that should be on disk, including modified super blocks, modified inodes, and delayed
block I/O.
Unlike fsync(3C), which completes the writing before it returns, sync() schedules but does not necessarily complete the writing before
returning.
USAGE
The sync() function should be used by applications that examine a file system, such as fsck(1M), and df(1M), and is mandatory before
rebooting.
