container Commands
container release_cache
To release the cache buffers associated with a specific array, use the
container release_cache
command. When a disk fails or
you remove a disk, the cache buffers associated with specific arrays
remain locked on the controller. This allows the opportunity for the
disk to come back online or gives you the opportunity to replace
the disk. In this case the arrays regain the previously locked
buffers.
On the other hand, you may want to return these cache buffers to
the global buffer pool. This command allows you to disassociate
the cache buffers associated with specific arrays and release these
cache buffers to the global pool.
Syntax
container release_cache {container}
Parameters
{container}
Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array on which you
want to release cache buffers.

array 0:
