macromedia flash flashcom : Flushing Cached/Stored streams

Hi,

I have a setup where I have 2 FMS, configured in Edge - Origin
Configuration. I have all the applications on the Origin Server. I have
the edge server configured to route all the requests coming to it to
the Origin server and cache the media in a directory.

When I play the video from a client requesting the Edge server, it is
fetching the video from the origin FMS and saving the media locally in
the cache directory.

The problem occurs when I want to remove or update the media on the
Origin server. i have a script which removes or incase of update put a
new file on the origin server and also clean the cache directory for
the said file. The issue is the file is accessed by large number of
clients and is stored in the buffer of the media server and its still
showing me the same file in the FMS console under streams that the file
is chached and its size. The users can still see the same file which I
have removed.

Could you please suggest a solution for this problem.

Thanks.

You need to do a core rollover. Brandon Purcell has a discussion on use of
rollover here http://www.bpurcell.org/blog/index.cfm?mode=cat&catid=17
