NAME

6       aoe-flush - flush the down devices out of the aoe driver
7

SYNOPSIS

9       aoe-flush [-a]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The  aoe-flush  command tells the aoe driver to remove devices from the
13       system and forget about them.  Normally the aoe  driver  will  remember
14       all devices it has seen until the module is unloaded.  By default, aoe-
15       flush will only flush downed devices.  With the -a flag all devices are
16       candidates for removal.
17
18       aoe-flush  will  not  remove  devices  that  are in use.  This includes
19       devices in the closewait  state  or  those  in  the  process  of  being
20       installed.
21

OPTIONS

23       -a     The -a option tells the aoe driver to forget all unused devices.
24

EXAMPLE

28       nai# aoe-flush
29       nai# aoe-stat | grep e12.0

BUGS

32       Flushed  devices  may reappear when they are discovered by the periodic
33       discovery beacon.  aoe-discover may be used to force this behaviour.
