A means of requesting backup aware modules to close their file handles. Note, this command does not actually B<perform> a backup, it merely prepares the system for one. It can be useful if you want to copy a file that is normally held open by a running process. Another strategy if this doesn't work (note, not everything is backup aware) is to do something like:+
−
+
−
  kill -m some-process && cp some-file .+
