Synchronizing
The Sync command is used for the maintenance of your YOPY’s file system. In order to maintain the
original state of your file system, you must regularly run the Sync command.
Normally, data are written first in a memory called the buffer cache before saved in the storage disk. The
physical load of your data into the disk is delayed after being written to the buffer cache, until the
following operation.
- When your system requires buffer for the operation of another process
- When the Sync command is executed
That is, when the Sync command is executed, your system empties those buffers and stores all data into
your disk.
For executing Sync in the File Manager, select “Command” in the menu bar and then select “Sync”.
