Re: fsync and battery-backed caches

        Hi all

        Is it secure to disable fsync havin battery-backed disk cache?
Thx

No. fsync moves the data from OS memory cache to disk-adaptor
cache which is required to benefit from battery backup.

If this data is written to the plates immediately depends on settings
of your disk adaptor card.
