taskstat(1M)						  System Administration Commands					      taskstat(1M)

NAME
taskstat - prints ASET tasks status SYNOPSIS
/usr/aset/util/taskstat [-d aset_dir] DESCRIPTION
taskstat is located in the /usr/aset/util directory. /usr/aset is the default operating directory of the Automated Security Enhancement Tool (ASET). An alternative working directory can be specified by the administrators through the aset -d command or the ASETDIR environment variable. See aset(1M). Because aset dispatches its tasks to run in the background, when it returns, these tasks may or may not have com- pleted. taskstat prints the status of the tasks, listing those that are completed and those that are still executing. The ASET reports, which are located in the /usr/aset/reports directory (see the -d option), are not complete until all the tasks finish executing. OPTIONS
-d aset_dir Specify the working directory for ASET. By default, this directory is /usr/aset. With this option, the reports directory will be located under aset_dir. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWast | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
