+---------------
| "at" or "batch" jobs (or you could modify /usr/lib/cron/.proto I suppose).
+---------------
Which reminds me: the file /usr/lib/cron/queuedefs has consistently confused
me. Is it, as it appears, a way of specifying "flags" for multiple "at"
queues?
a.4j1n <- apparently the definition for the "at" queue
b.2j2n90w <- and for the "batch" (really, "at -b") queue
If I don't need a sVr2 source license to get the answers, I'd like to know:
(1) Are the lines in queuedefs actually the flags for the "a" and "b" queues?
(2) If (1), what do the flags mean, and what other flags are there?
(3) Can I create my own queues, using the flags from (2)? How do I specify
an arbitrary queue to "at"?
Needless to say, I have neither source nor a license thereto. If answering
my questions would violate a license agreement, please let me know. (If I
have managed to violate a license aggreement with this posting, that goes
double! The only license aggreement I've seen is that from Plexus, which
REFERS to the AT&T license that is not provided with Plexus's SysV.)
Thanks in advance,
++Brandon
