.th UPDATE VIII 11/1/73 .sh NAME update \*- periodically update the super block .sh SYNOPSIS .bd update .sh DESCRIPTION .it Update is a program that executes the .it sync primitive every 30 seconds. This insures that the file system is fairly up to date in case of a crash. This command should not be executed directly, but should be executed out of the initialization shell command file. See sync(II) for details. .sh "SEE ALSO" sync(II), init(VII) .sh BUGS There is a system bug which, it is suspected, may be aggravated by this program. Until further notice, .it update should not be run.
