NAME

       cachefspack - pack files and file systems in the cache

SYNOPSIS

       packing-list ] cache-directory ] [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  utility  is  used  to  set up and maintain files in the cache.  This utility affords greater control over the cache, ensuring that the
       specified files will be in the cache whenever possible.

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      Display pathname of the files to be cached.

	      Specify a
		      packing-list file containing a list of files and directories to be packed.  Options within subdirectories and files can also
		      be  specified.  The format and rules governing packing-list are described in packingrules(4).  Directories are packed recur-
		      sively.  Symlinks that match a regular expression on a LIST command are followed.  Symlinks  encountered	while  recursively
		      processing directories are not followed.

	      Print a brief help summary of all the options.

	      View information about the packed files.

	      Pack the file or files specified by
		      file.  This is the default behavior.

	      Strip "./" from the beginning of a pattern name.

	      Unpack the file or files specified by
		      file.

	      Unpack all files in the specified
		      cache-directory, under which the cache is stored.

   Operands
       recognizes the following operands:

	      file   A path name of a file to be packed or unpacked.

RETURN VALUE

       returns the following values:

	      Successful completion.

	      An error occurred.

EXAMPLES

       Pack the file projects in the cache.

       Pack the files projects, updates and master_plan in the cache.

       Unpack the file projects from the cache.

       Unpack the files projects, updates and master_plan from the cache.

       Unpack all files in the cache1 cache directory.

       Use the lists.pkg packing-list to specify files to be packed in the cache.  The contents of lists.pkg are as follows:

       This  example  will  pack  all files in the directory /src/junk with .c and .h extensions that do not contain the string SCCS in the file's
       path name.

NAME

       cachefsd - CacheFS daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/fs/cachefs/cachefsd

DESCRIPTION

       The  cachefsd  server  implements  features  of the cache filesystem (CacheFS). It is invoked at boot time and run if the / (root) and /usr
       filesystems are being cached. If /usr is being cached, cachefsd is invoked by inetd(1M)	from  inetd.conf(4).  At  run  time,  cachefsd	is
       invoked by the inetd mechanism in response to an RPC request from a user command such as mount_cachefs(1M).

       The  cachefsd  server  supports	the "disconnected mode" of CacheFS. In this mode, a user can continue to read and, depending on the option
       selected, write to files in a cached filesystem when the NFS server for the cached files is not available.

       The cachefsd daemon performs the following functions in support of the CacheFS:

	 o  Implements the connection policy. The daemon determines whether the NFS server backing the cache is connected or disconnected from the
	    cache, or is in transition from the connected or disconnected states.

	 o  Implements	"log  rolling,"  wherein  the daemon monitors a disconnected NFS server for reconnection. After such a server returns to a
	    connected state, cachefsd rolls any local changes to cached files (kept in a log) back to the server.

	 o  Manages "packing," wherein cachefsd makes a best effort to ensure that files in a user-specified list are available in  the  cache	in
	    disconnected mode.

	 o  Supports user interfaces by supplying statistics, reporting conflicts between the cache and the back filesystem, and supporting a list
	    of files for packing.

       The running of cachefsd is required for the disconnected mode of CacheFS.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -r	       Used for invoking cachefsd for the / filesystem.
