                    '- -sync-- -force-'  '- node_name-'   

Parameters

-sync
(Optional) Specifies synchronization of drives marked can_sync.
-force
(Optional) Forces synchronization (though taking the node offline might cause a volume to go offline).
Important: Using the force parameter might result in a loss of access. Use it only under the direction of your product support information.
node_id | node_name
(Optional) Specifies the ID or name of the node.

Description

The command identifies and synchronizes drive information for system drives.

Specifying -sync causes a node reboot on the specified node. This reboot is not successful if any volume is dependent on that node.
Important: If -force is also specified, the system does not check for dependent volumes.
