atrun

ATRUN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						  ATRUN(8)

NAME

     atrun -- run jobs queued for later execution

SYNOPSIS

     atrun [-l load_avg] [-d]

DESCRIPTION

     atrun runs jobs queued by at(1).  Root's crontab(5) must contain the line:

     */10     *       *       *       *       root    /usr/libexec/atrun

     so that atrun(8) gets called every ten minutes.

     At every invocation, every job in lowercase queues whose starting time has passed is started.  A maximum of one batch job (denoted by upper-
     case queues) is started each time atrun is invoked.

OPTIONS

     -l load_avg
	     Specifies a limiting load factor, over which batch jobs should not be run, instead of the compiled-in value of 1.5.

     -d      Debug; print error messages to standard error instead of using syslog(3).

WARNINGS

     For atrun to work, you have to start up a cron(8) daemon.

FILES

     /var/at/spool  Directory containing output spool files
     /var/at/jobs   Directory containing job files

SEE ALSO

     at(1), crontab(1), syslog(3), crontab(5), cron(8)

AUTHORS

     Thomas Koenig <ig25@rz.uni-karlsruhe.de>

BUGS

     The functionality of atrun should be merged into cron(8).
