NAME
aoe-revalidate - revalidate the disk size of an aoe device
SYNOPSIS
aoe-revalidate e{major}.{minor}
DESCRIPTION
The aoe-revalidate command tells the aoe driver to revalidate the disk
size of an open aoe device. Normally the aoe driver will only
acknowledge changes in an aoe device’s disk size when the aoe device is
not open.
It should be noted that if an aoe device’s disk size shrinks in
revalidation any users may become hopelessly confused when their
resumed I/O starts to fail.
EXAMPLE
nai# aoe-stat | grep e1.9
e1.9 82.348GB eth0 up
nai# < /dev/etherd/e1.9 sleep 600 &
[1] 13006
nai# aoe-revalidate e1.9
nai# aoe-stat | grep e1.9
e1.9 164.696GB eth0 up
