wracct

wracct(1M)						  System Administration Commands						wracct(1M)

NAME

       wracct - write extended accounting records for active processes and tasks

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/wracct -i id_list [-t record_type]
	    {process | task}

DESCRIPTION

       The wracct utility allows the administrator to invoke the extended accounting system, if active, to write intermediate records representing
       the resource usage of a selected set of processes or tasks. For tasks, a record_type option is also supported, allowing	the  administrator
       to request the writing of:

	   o	  an  interval	record, which reflects task usage since a previous interval record (or since task creation if there is no interval
		  record), or

	   o	  a partial record, which reflects usage since task creation.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -i id_list	 Select the IDs of the tasks or processes to write records for. Specify id_list as a comma-  or  space-separated  list	of
			 IDs, presented as a single argument. For some shells, this requires appropriate quoting of the argument.

       -t record_type	 Select  type of record to write for the selected task or process. For tasks, record_type can be partial or interval. par-
			 tial is the default type, and the only type available for process records.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       process	  Treat the given ID as a process ID for the purposes of constructing and writing an extended accounting record.

       task	  Treat the given ID as a task ID for the purposes of constructing and writing an extended accounting record.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Writing a Partial Record

       Write a partial record for all active sendmail processes.

	 # /usr/sbin/wracct -i "`pgrep sendmail`" process

       Example 2 Writing an Interval Record

       Write an interval record for the task with ID 182.

	 # /usr/sbin/wracct -t interval -i 182 task

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0    Successful completion.

       1    An error occurred.

       2    Invalid command line options were specified.

       3    Pertinent components of extended accounting facility are not active.

       /var/adm/exacct/task
