uumonitor(8c)uumonitor(8c)Nameuumonitor - monitor the UUCP system
SyntaxuumonitorDescription
The command displays a synopsis in tabular format of the current UUCP
status. The format of each line is as follows:
system_name #C #X most_recent_status CNT:# time
In the format of this line,
system_name is the remote system for which the entry applies.
#C is the number of C.files queued for the remote system.
#X is the number of requests for remote execution from the
remote system.
most_recent_status
is the result of the most recent attempt to connect to
the remote system.
CNT:# is the number of times that a failure to log in to the
remote system has occurred. This does NOT include the
number failed dial attempts.
time is the time of the last status entry was made for this
system.
The command is helpful for detecting systems that have backlogs, that
have gone away for awhile, that have changed phone numbers, and so
forth. The CNT: field is useful for detecting a system whose
login/passwd has changed. If the CNT: field gets larger than the maxi‐
mum allowable failures (currently 20), no further attempts to connect
to this system are made. If the number of C.files queued starts get‐
ting unusually large (depending on the system anywhere from 100-1000),
action should be taken to determine the cause of the backlog.
