NAME

6       aoe-revalidate - revalidate the disk size of an aoe device
7

SYNOPSIS

9       aoe-revalidate e{major}.{minor}
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The  aoe-revalidate command tells the aoe driver to revalidate the disk
13       size of an open aoe device.  Normally the aoe driver will only acknowl‐
14       edge  changes  in  an aoe device's disk size when the aoe device is not
15       open.
16
17       It should be noted that if an aoe device's disk size shrinks in revali‐
18       dation  any users may become hopelessly confused when their resumed I/O
19       starts to fail.
