DESCRIPTION

The cleanloc command is used on an individual site to move local commit cluster
information from the local file system to external storage media (for example
tape).  The main purpose of such action is to open room in the local file
system so that it does not get clogged up with backout information.

When the -c flag is used, the commit information from a particular LPP
lpp_name, is moved from the local file system to the media referred to by dev.

When the -r flag is used, all commit information on the media, dev, is restored
to the local filesystem.

Note:  When the LPP information is cleaned from a local filesystem,
       uncommitting (backing out) updates to an LPP is no longer possible.
       Therefore, you must return the commit information for that LPP to the
       local filesystem before attempting to uncommit (back out) that LPP.
       Should you try to uncommit (back out) an LPP whose local commit
       information is missing, a queue processing error occurs.  lconfig
       analysis reveals which local commit information is missing and needs to
       be restored using cleanloc -r.
