clear map

Delete all entries from a Map file.

Description Jump to heading

A Map file contains a list of key-value pairs. You can reference the file on an acl line by using the -M and -f /path/to/file flags. Use clear map to remove all entries from a Map file. Note that this only removes them from the load balancer’s runtime memory and not from the file on disk.

In this example, we delete all entries from the Map file /etc/hapee-2.8/maps/hosts.map:

sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999
bash
echo "clear map /etc/hapee-2.8/maps/hosts.map" | \
sudo socat stdio tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:9999
