command to prepare a new $PXF_BASE
on all hosts, copy the PXF extension control file to $GPHOME
on all hosts, synchronize the PXF configuration to the Greenplum Database cluster, or to start, stop, or display the status of the PXF Service instance on all hosts in the cluster.)

pxf sync
on the coordinator host. By default, this command updates files on and copies files to the remote. You can instruct PXF to also delete files during the synchronization; see Options below.
The pxf sync
command, which you must run on the Greenplum Database coordinator host, takes the following option and argument:
