man atd (Administration système) - run jobs queued for later execution
NAME
atd - run jobs queued for later execution
SYNOPSIS
atd [-l load_avg] [-b batch_interval] [-d] [-s]
DESCRIPTION
OPTIONS
- -l
- Specifies a limiting load factor, over which batch jobs should not be run, instead of the compile-time choice of 1.5. For an SMP system with n CPUs, you will probably want to set this higher than n-1.
- -b
- Specify the minimum interval in seconds between the start of two batch jobs (60 default).
- -d
- Debug; print error messages to standard error instead of using syslog(3).
- -s
- Process the at/batch queue only once. This is primarily of use for compatibility with old versions of at; atd -s is equivalent to the old atrun command. A script invoking atd -s is installed as /usr/sbin/atrun for backward compatibility.
WARNING
atd won't work if its spool directory is mounted via NFS even if no_root_squash is set.
FILES
/var/spool/cron/atjobs The directory for storing jobs; this should be mode 700, owner daemon.
/var/spool/cron/atspool The directory for storing output; this should be mode 700, owner daemon.
