Python API: samAdmin v8_1_5
samAdmin.uncacheEntireStation()

Just having some fun...
This is the python interface to the command 'samadmin uncache entire station'.
Command Description:

This command is used by a sam shifter to mark 
all files on a particular station as 'uncached' in the
SAM db.  It does not remove the files from disk, nor even
check that they actually exist.

The station must NOT be running when this command is
invoked.  The station will notice the change in status
at its next restart.

Example:
  samadmin uncache entire station --station=myVeryHosedStation \
           --connect=myOracleUser/myOraclePassword
           
Related commands:
  samadmin uncache station file
  samadmin uncache station disk
  

Python Usage:
	from SamAdmin import samAdmin
	result = samAdmin.uncacheEntireStation(...)

Return value: 

Arguments are passed as keyword-value pairs, as in:
	 myfunc(arg1='myarg', arg2='anotherarg', d=1)

Argument Keyword Description:
	(*) indicates that this keyword is required
	>>> indicates that either the API object or the CLI equivalent (<<<) is required
