Resource Accounting

[WOLF%MCL3.SAINET.MFENET at nmfecc.arpa]

I am having a problem with resource accounting on my Convex C1-XP.  It
runs Convex UNIX, which is BSD 4.2 with some additions.  I am presently
using two files to collect accounting information, one for full-cost,
and one for night-time discounts.  I have lines in my crontab like:

        00 06 * * * /etc/accton
        00 18 * * * /etc/accton /usr/adm/nite_acct

which work as expected.  There is one problem: when a process is begun
in one time frame and does not complete until the other time frame, all
of the CPU time is "charged" to the latter.  I know that a process
doesn't have a complete resource count until completion, but does
anyone out there know of a way to write the information to the present
accounting file, THEN switch to the other file and write the remainder?

Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks.
