NAME
       vmsync - vmware kernel module

SYNOPSIS
       modprobe vmsync

DESCRIPTION
       This  is  a  Linux  kernel  module.  It	isn't  backed  by  a  virtual hardware device, so it must be loaded manually. It is depended on by
       vmware-guestd(8), so ideally it should be loaded prior to starting vmware-guestd(8) (though vmware-guestd(8) can function without it). This
       module is used for freezing and thawing the filesystem.

OPTIONS
       vmsync has no options.
