It say's you should flush your libraries, not your system/database!
Even basemanager says so:
--
BaseManager V3.66                                            
Usage: BaseManager [VALIDATE bbs] [SALVAGE] [CONVERT] [USAGE]
Program to fix problems with the bbsread.library database and
configuration. Be sure to have flushed out the library before
using this program.

The answer is 'avail flush', its an AmigaDOS command, not a Thor command.
