lfs-mirror-resync \- resynchronize an out-of-sync mirrored file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.SY "lfs mirror resync"
.RB [ --only
.IR MIRROR_ID [,...]]
.RB [ --bandwidth= | -W
.IR BANDWIDTH_MB ]

.SH DESCRIPTION
This command resynchronizes out-of-sync mirrored file(s) specified by the path
name
.IR MIRRORED_FILE .
.P
If there is no stale mirror for the
.IR MIRRORED_FILE (s),
then the command does nothing.
If mirrors are inconsistent but no components are marked as stale, the command
will fail with an error message suggesting the use of
.BR --force-resync .
Otherwise, it will copy data from synced mirror to stale mirror(s),
and mark all successfully copied mirror(s) as SYNC.
.P
If
.B --only
option is not specified, the
.B nosync
mirror(s) (i.e.
components that have this flag set) will not be synced.
.P
If
.B --only
.IR MIRROR_ID [,...]
option is specified,
then the command will resynchronize the mirror(s) specified by the
IR MIRROR_ID (s),
even nosync mirror(s) will be resynchronized as well.
This option cannot be used when multiple mirrored files are specified.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BR "--only \fIMIRROR_ID" [ , ...]
This option indicates which mirror(s) specified by
.IR MIRROR_ID (s)
needs to be resynchronized. The
.I MIRROR_ID
is the numerical unique identifier for a mirror. Multiple
.IR MIRROR_ID s
are separated by comma. This option cannot
be used when multiple mirrored files are specified.
.TP
.BR -f ", " --force-resync
Force resynchronization of specified mirrors even when they are not marked as
stale. This option requires the
.B --only
option to specify which mirrors to resync. When mirrors are inconsistent but
no components are marked as stale, normal resync will fail with an error
message suggesting the use of this option.
.TP
.BR --stats
This option enables progress updates every 5 seconds, in YAML format.
.TP
.BI --stats-interval= STATS_INTERVAL
This option enables progress updates every
.I STATS_INTERVAL
seconds, in YAML format.
.TP
.BR -W ", " --bandwidth " \fIBANDWIDTH_MB\fR[" MG ]
Limit the read and write bandwidth a mirror resync consumes to no more than
.I BANDWIDTH_MB
MiB/s. An optional suffix can be used to specify units in
.BR M egabytes
or
.BR G igabytes
per second.
.SH EXAMPLES
Resynchronize all of the stale and sync-able mirror(s) for /mnt/lustre/file1
and /mnt/lustre/file2:
.RS
.EX
.B # lfs mirror resync /mnt/lustre/file1 /mnt/lustre/file2
.EE
.RE
.PP
Resynchronize mirrors with mirror ID 4 and 5 for /mnt/lustre/file1 even if they
are not marked as STALE:
.RS
.EX
.B # lfs mirror resync --only 4,5 /mnt/lustre/file1
.EE
.RE
.PP
Force resynchronization of mirror 2 when mirrors are inconsistent but not marked
as stale:
.RS
.EX
.B # lfs mirror resync --only 2 --force-resync /mnt/lustre/file1
