RRDFLUSHCACHED(1)                   rrdtool                  RRDFLUSHCACHED(1)



NAME
       rrdflushcached - Flush the values for a spcific RRD file from memory.

SYNOPSIS
       rrdtool flushcached [--daemon address] filename [filename ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The flushcached function connects to rrdcached, the RRD caching daemon,
       and issues a "flush" command for the given files. The daemon will put
       the files to the head of the update queue so they are written "soon".
       The status will be returned only after the files' pending updates have
       been written to disk.

       filename
               The name(s) of the RRD file(s) that are to be written to disk.

       --daemon address
               Address of the rrdcached daemon. If not specified, the
               RRDCACHED_ADDRESS environment variable must be set (see below).
               For a list of accepted formats, see the -l option in the
               rrdcached manual.

                rrdtool flush --daemon unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock /var/lib/rrd/foo.rrd

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       The following environment variables may be used to change the behavior
       of "rrdtool flushcached":

       RRDCACHED_ADDRESS
           If this environment variable is set it will have the same effect as
           specifying the "--daemon" option on the command line. If both are
           present, the command line argument takes precedence.
