NAME
uustat - uucp status inquiry and job control
SYNOPSIS
uustat [ option ]
uustat [ -ssystem ] [ -uuser ]
DESCRIPTION
Uustat will display the status of, or cancel, previously specified uucp
commands, or provide general status on uucp connections to other sys‐
tems. The following options are recognized:
-a output all jobs in queue.
-kjobid Kill the uucp request whose job identification is jobid. The
killed uucp request must belong to the person issuing the uu‐
stat command unless one is the super-user.
-m Report the status of accessibility of all machines.
-p Report on the status of all processes that are in the lock
files.
-q List the jobs queued for each machine. If a status file ex‐
ists for the machine, its date, time and status information
are reported. A parenthesized number next to the number of C
or X files gives the age in days of the oldest file for that
system. The Retry field represents the number of hours until
the next possible call. The Count is the number of failure
attempts. NOTE: for systems with a moderate number of out‐
standing jobs, this could take 30 seconds or more of real-
time to execute.
-rjobid Rejuvenate jobid. The files associated with jobid are
touched so that their modification time is set to the current
time. This prevents the cleanup demon from deleting the job
until the jobs modification time reaches the limit imposed by
the demon.
-ssys Report the status of all uucp requests for remote system sys.
-uuser Report the status of all uucp requests issued by user.
When no options are given, uustat outputs the status of all uucp re‐
quests issued by the current user.
