SYNOPSIS

uustat -k jobid ]
uustat -r jobid ]

DESCRIPTION
uustat displays the status of, or cancels, previously specified
uucp commands, or provide general
status on
uucp connections to other systems (see uucp(1)). Only one of the following options can be
specified with
uustat per command execution:
-a Output all jobs in queue.
-m Report the status of accessibility of all machines.
-p Execute a ps -flp for all the process IDs that are in the lock files.
-q List the jobs queued for each machine. If a status file exists for the machine, its date,
time and status information are reported. In addition, if a number appears in
() next
to the number of C or X files it is the age in days of the oldest
C. or X. file for that sys-
tem. The Retry field is the number of hours until the next possible call. The Count field
is the number of failure attempts. Note that for systems with a moderate number of out-
standing jobs, this could take 30 seconds or more of real time to execute. As an example
of the output produced by
uustat -q :
eagle 3C 04/07-11:07 NO DEVICES AVAILABLE
mh3bs3 2C 07/07-10:42 SUCCESSFUL
The above output tells how many command files are waiting for each system. Each com-
mand file can have zero or more files to be sent (a command file with no files to be sent
causes the uucp system to call the remote system and see if work is waiting). The date
and time refer to the previous interaction with the system followed by the status of
interaction.
-k jobid Kill the uucp request whose job identification is jobid . The killed
uucp request must
belong to the person issuing the
uustat command unless the command is executed by
the super-user.
-r jobid Rejuvenate jobid. The files associated with jobid are touched so that their modification
time is set to the current time. This prevents the cleanup daemon from deleting the job
until the jobs modification time reaches the limit imposed by the cleanup daemon.
The following options can be used singly or together but cannot be used with the options listed above:
-s sys Report the status of all uucp requests for remote system sys.
-u user Report the status of all uucp requests issued by user .
Output for both the
-s and -u options has the following format:
eaglen0000 4/07-11:01:03 (POLL)
eagleN1bd7 4/07-11:07 S eagle dan 522 /usr/dan/A
eagleC1bd8 4/07-11:07 S eagle dan 59 D.3b2a12cd4924
4/07-11:07 S eagle dan rmail mike
With the -s and -u options, the first field is the jobid of the job. This is followed by the date and
time. The next field is either an S or R, depending on whether the job is to send or request a file.
The next field is the destination system name. This is followed by the user ID of the user who
queued the job. The next field contains the size of the file, or in the case of a remote execution the
name of the command (such as rmail which is the command used for remote mail). When the size
appears in this field, the file name is also given. This can either be the name given by the user or an
internal name (such as D.3b2alce4924) that is created for data files associated with remote exe-
cution (rmail in this example).
