NAME

       runstat - collect statistics about execution of a process

SYNOPSYS

       runstat [ -h ]

       runstat [ -d ] [ -f pathname ] command [ args ]

DESCRIPTION

       runstat	tries to execute a command in a subprocess, and upon termination of the subprocess collects some statistics about that subprocess,
       and writes them to a file.

       These statistics include time of execution, exit status, and elapsed time to execute, as well as use of various OS resources.

USAGE

       -d

	      Debug mode; send log messages to standard error as well as to the system log.

       -f pathname

	      Specifies the pathname of the file to save the statistics to.  The default is to create a file in /tmp/cronutils-$USER with the name
	      of the command, and suffix ".stat".

       -h

	      Prints some basic help.

NAME

       runlock - prevent concurrent execution of a process

SYNOPSYS

       runlock [ -h ]

       runlock [ -d ] [ -f pathname ] [ -t timeout ] command [ args ]

DESCRIPTION

       runlock tries to hold an exclusive lock while it executes a command. Subsequent execution of runlock with the same lock, while that lock is
       held, will cause the new instance of runlock to terminate with a faliure exit code. Otherwise, the exit code of the subprocess is returned.

USAGE

       -d

	      Debug mode; send log messages to standard error as well as to the system log.

       -f pathname

	      Specifies the pathname of the file to use as a lock file.  The default is to create a lock file  in  /tmp/cronutils-$USER  with  the
	      name of the command, and suffix ".pid".

       -t timeout

	      Specifies the duration, in seconds, for runlock to wait before giving up on trying to acquire the lock.  The default is 5 seconds.

       -h

	      Prints some basic help.

BUGS

       Sending SIGALRM to runlock before the timer has expired will cause the subprocess to be killed.
