Using the NIM sync_roots operation
Use the sync_roots operation to verify that diskless and dataless clients have the correct root files for the SPOT resource they use.
The command line syntax for the sync_roots operation
is as follows:
nim -F -o sync_roots -a num_parallel_syncs=Value TargetNameThe target of a sync_roots operation must be a SPOT resource.
The following are optional flags and attributes that can be specified for the sync_roots operation:
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| -a num_parallel_syncs=Value | Specifies the number of client root directories to simultaneously synchronize with the SPOT's root files. Valid values are numeric. The default value is num_parallel_syncs=5. |
| -F | Specifies that NIM should force the operation. |
A sync_roots operation can be performed automatically when the check operation is performed on a SPOT.
