Directories(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual Directories(4)NAME
Directories - Contains queued requests for file transfers and command executions on remote systems
SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/SystemName
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName directories are the uucp program spooling directories on the local system. The uucp program creates a Sys-
temName directory for each system listed in the /usr/adm/uucp/Systems file, including the local system.
Each SystemName directory contains queued requests issued by local users for file transfers to remote systems and for command executions on
remote systems.
The uucp program uses several types of administrative files to transfer data between systems. These files are stored in the SystemName
directories. They are: Contain directions for the uucico daemon concerning file transfers. Contain data to be sent to remote systems by
the uucico daemon. Contain instructions for running commands on remote systems. Contain data files after their transfer to the remote
system until the uucp program can deliver them to their final destinations (usually the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory).

Status, .Status - Contains information about the status of the uucp program contacts with remote systems
SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/.Status
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/spool/uucp/.Status directory contains information about the status of the uucp program contacts with remote systems.
For each remote system contacted, the uucp program creates a file in the .Status directory called SystemName, where the SystemName file is
named for the remote system being contacted. In the .Status/SystemName file, the uucp program stores the following information: Time of
the last call in seconds Status of the last call Number of retries Retry time, in seconds, of the next call
The times given in the .Status/SystemName file are expressed as seconds elapsed since midnight of January 1, 1970 (the output of a time
system call). Thus, the retry time is in the form of the number of seconds that must have expired since midnight of January 1, 1970 before
the system can retry. To make this entry in the .Status/SystemName file, uucp performs a time system call, adds 600 seconds, and places
the resulting number of seconds in the file. If the last call was unsuccessful, the uucico daemon will wait until the time specified by
the retry time before attempting to contact the system again.

Hi there!
I'm a bit curious on something about Daemons....
Supose you have two processes say A and B, where B is a daemon.
A is totally independent from B.
Is there a way for A to find out B's return code?
Is there a way for A to find out when B ends?
Thanks! (4 Replies)

I know this sounds weird, We have encountered many incidents where some directories on several Solaris 10 boxes, will be converted to files with the same size. for example the file below :
