AWS Storage Gateway

Starts a process that cleans the specified file share's cache of file entries that are failing upload to Amazon S3. This API operation reports success if the request is received with valid arguments, and there are no other cache clean operations currently in-progress for the specified file share. After a successful request, the cache clean operation occurs asynchronously and reports progress using CloudWatch logs and notifications.
