# NAME
flashcache_load - load an existing writeback cache volume
# DESCRIPTION
Attach a previously created flashcache volume to the system. The loaded volume
will appear as as */dev/mapper/cachedevname*.
This command is useful in *writeback* mode only. For the **writethrough** and
**writearound* the **flashcache_load** command is not needed; Instead
**flashcache_create**(8) should be used each time. See the
**flashcache_create**(8) for a description of supported cache mods.
# SYNOPSIS
flashcache_load *cache_devname* *[cachedev_name]*
# EXAMPLE
flashcache_load cachedev /dev/sdc
: Load the existing writeback cache on /dev/sdc, using the virtual
cachedev_name from when the device was created. When upgrading from
an older flashcache device format that didn't store the cachedev name
internally, or the cachedev name shall be changed, the new cachedev name can
be supplied as a second argument to flashcache_load.
