.TH VMSYNC 9 "2010\-04\-08" "2010.03.20\-243334" "Open VM Tools"

.SH NAME
vmsync \- vmware kernel module

.SH SYNOPSIS
modprobe vmsync

.SH DESCRIPTION
This is a Linux kernel module. It isn't backed by a virtual hardware device, so it must be loaded manually. It is depended on by \fIvmware\-guestd\fR(8), so ideally it should be loaded prior to starting \fIvmware\-guestd\fR(8) (though \fIvmware\-guestd\fR(8) can function without it). This module is used for freezing and thawing the filesystem.

.SH OPTIONS
vmsync has no options.
