UPDATE(8)               COMMAND REFERENCE               UPDATE(8)



NAME
     update - periodically update the super block

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/update

DESCRIPTION
     Update is a program that executes the sync(2) primitive
     every 30 seconds.  This insures that the file system is
     fairly up to date in case of a crash.  This command should
     not be executed directly, but should be executed out of the
     initialization shell command file.

SEE ALSO
     sync(2), init(8), rc(8), and sync(8).
