okay so bestie, welcome to virt-sanlock-cleanup — the manual page, the moment, the whole vibe 💅 (it lives in the Virtualization Support corner of the universe, iykyk)

🌸 NAME 🌸

virt-sanlock-cleanup — removes those stale sanlock resource lease files 🧹✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

virt-sanlock-cleanup

that's it. no flags, no args, just vibes and a single command 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea, bestie ☕ — this tool goes in and removes any resource lease files created by the sanlock lock manager plugin. no cap.

here's the thing tho: those resource lease files only need to exist on disks when a guest that's using the resource is actually active. like, they're not meant to just sit there forever collecting dust 🙈. so this script does the reclaiming — it takes back the disk space that's being hogged by resources that aren't currently active. literally spring cleaning for your leases 🧼💖

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

• 0 — set when the leases cleanup was processed successfully, slay ✅
• non-zero — set upon a fatal error, and that's the vibe check failing 💀
