DESCRIPTION
The uustat command can display various types of status information
about the UUCP system. It can also be used to cancel or rejuvenate requests made by uucp (1) or uux (1).By default uustat displays all jobs queued up for the invoking user, as
if given the --uusseerr option with the appropriate argument.

--oollddeerr-tthhaann,, -yy,, --yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann options are given, then all jobs which
match the combined specifications are displayed.The -KK or --kkiillll-aallll option may be used to kill off a selected group of
jobs, such as all jobs more than 7 days old. OOPPTTIIOONNSSThe following options may be given to uustat.
-aa,, --aallll
List all queued file transfer requests.-ee,, --eexxeeccuuttiioonnss
List queued execution requests rather than queued file transfer requests. Queued execution requests are processed by uuxqt (8) rather than uucico (8). Queued execution requests may be waiting for some file to be transferred from a remote system. They are created by an invocation of uux (1).-ss ssyysstteemm,, --ssyysstteemm ssyysstteemm
List all jobs queued up for the named system. These options may be specified multiple times, in which case all jobs for all thesystems will be listed. If used with --lliisstt only the systems
named will be listed.-SS ssyysstteemm,, --nnoott-ssyysstteemm ssyysstteemm
List all jobs queued for systems other than the one named. These options may be specified multiple times, in which case no jobs from any of the specified systems will be listed. If used with--lliisstt only the systems not named will be listed. These options
may not be used with -ss or --ssyysstteemm..
-uu uusseerr,, --uusseerr uusseerr
List all jobs queued up for the named user. These options may be specified multiple times, in which case all jobs for all the users will be listed.-UU uusseerr,, --nnoott-uusseerr uusseerr
List all jobs queued up for users other than the one named. These options may be specified multiple times, in which case no jobs from any of the specified users will be listed. These options maynot be used with -uu or --uusseerr..
-cc ccoommmmaanndd,, --ccoommmmaanndd ccoommmmaanndd
List all jobs requesting the execution of the named command. If ccoommmmaanndd is ALL this will list all jobs requesting the execution of some command (as opposed to simply requesting a file transfer). These options may be specified multiple times, in which case all jobs requesting any of the commands will be listed.-CC ccoommmmaanndd,, --nnoott-ccoommmmaanndd ccoommmmaanndd
List all jobs requesting execution of some command other than the named command, or, if ccoommmmaanndd is ALL, list all jobs that simply request a file transfer (as opposed to requesting the execution of some command). These options may be specified multiple times, in which case no job requesting one of the specified commands will belisted. These options may not be used with -cc or --ccoommmmaanndd..
-oo hhoouurrss,, --oollddeerr-tthhaann hhoouurrss
List all queued jobs older than the given number of hours. Ifused with --lliisstt only systems whose oldest job is older than the
given number of hours will be listed.-yy hhoouurrss,, --yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann hhoouurrss
List all queued jobs younger than the given number of hours. Ifused with --lliisstt only systems whose oldest job is younger than the
given number of hours will be listed.-kk jjoobbiidd,, --kkiillll jjoobbiidd
Kill the named job. The job id is shown by the default outputformat, as well as by the -jj or --jjoobbiidd option to uucp (1) or uux
(1). A job may only be killed by the user who created the job, orby the UUCP administrator or the superuser. The -kk or --kkiillll
options may be used multiple times on the command line to kill several jobs.-rr jjoobbiidd,, --rreejjuuvveennaattee jjoobbiidd
Rejuvenate the named job. This will mark it as having beeninvoked at the current time, affecting the output of the -oo,,
--oollddeerr-tthhaann,, -yy,, or --yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann options and preserving it from
any automated cleanup daemon. The job id is shown by the defaultoutput format, as well as by the -jj or --jjoobbiidd options to uucp (1)
or uux (1). A job may only be rejuvenated by the user who createdthe job, or by the UUCP administrator or the superuser. The -rr or
--rreejjuuvveennaattee options may be used multiple times on the command
line to rejuvenate several jobs.-qq,, --lliisstt
Display the status of commands, executions and conversations for all remote systems for which commands or executions are queued.The -ss,, --ssyysstteemm,, -SS,, --nnoott-ssyysstteemm,, -oo,, --oollddeerr-tthhaann,, -yy,, and
--yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann options may be used to restrict the systems which
are listed. Systems for which no commands or executions are queued will never be listed.-mm,, --ssttaattuuss
Display the status of conversations for all remote systems.-pp,, --ppss
Display the status of all processes holding UUCP locks on systems or ports.-ii,, --pprroommpptt
For each listed job, prompt whether to kill the job or not. If the first character of the input line is y or Y the job will be killed.-KK,, --kkiillll-aallll
Automatically kill each listed job. This can be useful for auto-
matic cleanup scripts, in conjunction with the --mmaaiill and --nnoottiiffyy
options.-RR,, --rreejjuuvveennaattee-aallll
Automatically rejuvenate each listed job. This may not be usedwith --kkiillll-aallll..
-MM,, --mmaaiill
For each listed job, send mail to the UUCP administrator. If thejob is killed (due to --kkiillll-aallll or --pprroommpptt with an affirmative
response) the mail will indicate that. A comment specified by the--ccoommmmeenntt option may be included. If the job is an execution, the
initial portion of its standard input will be included in the mail message; the number of lines to include may be set with the--mmaaiill-lliinneess option (the default is 100). If the standard input
contains null characters, it is assumed to be a binary file and is not included.-NN,, --nnoottiiffyy
For each listed job, send mail to the user who requested the job.The mail is identical to that sent by the -MM or --mmaaiill options.
-WW ccoommmmeenntt,, --ccoommmmeenntt ccoommmmeenntt
Specify a comment to be included in mail sent with the -MM,, --mmaaiill,,
-NN,, or --nnoottiiffyy options.
-BB lliinneess,, --mmaaiill-lliinneess lliinneess
When the -MM,, --mmaaiill,, -NN,, or --nnoottiiffyy options are used to send mail
about an execution with standard input, this option controls the number of lines of standard input to include in the message. The default is 100.-QQ,, --nnoo-lliisstt
Do not actually list the job, but only take any actions indicatedby the -ii,, --pprroommpptt,, -KK,, --kkiillll-aallll,, -MM,, --mmaaiill,, -NN or --nnoottiiffyy
options.-xx ttyyppee,, --ddeebbuugg ttyyppee
Turn on particular debugging types. The following types are rec-
ognized: abnormal, chat, handshake, uucp-proto, proto, port, con-
fig, spooldir, execute, incoming, outgoing. Only abnormal, con-
fig, spooldir and execute are meaningful for uustat.
Multiple types may be given, separated by commas, and the --ddeebbuugg
option may appear multiple times. A number may also be given, which will turn on that many types from the foregoing list; forexample, --ddeebbuugg 22 is equivalent to --ddeebbuugg aabbnnoorrmmaall,,cchhaatt..
-II ffiillee,, --ccoonnffiigg ffiillee
Set configuration file to use. This option may not be available,depending upon how uustat was compiled.
-vv,, --vveerrssiioonn
Report version information and exit.--hheellpp
Print a help message and exit. EEXXAAMMPPLLEESSuustat -all
Display status of all jobs. A sample output line is as follows:bugsA027h bugs ian 04-01 13:50 Executing rmail ian@airs.com (sending 1283 bytes)
The format isjobid system user queue-date command (size)
The jobid may be passed to the --kkiillll or --rreejjuuvveennaattee options. The
size indicates how much data is to be transferred to the remote system,and is absent for a file receive request. The --ssyysstteemm,, --nnoott-ssyysstteemm,,
--uusseerr,, --nnoott-uusseerr,, --ccoommmmaanndd,, --nnoott-ccoommmmaanndd,, --oollddeerr-tthhaann,, and
--yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann options may be used to control which jobs are listed.
uustat -executions
Display status of queued up execution requests. A sample output line is as follows:bugs bugs!ian 05-20 12:51 rmail ian
The format issystem requestor queue-date command
The --ssyysstteemm,, --nnoott-ssyysstteemm,, --uusseerr,, --nnoott-uusseerr,, --ccoommmmaanndd,, --nnoott-ccoomm-
mmaanndd,, --oollddeerr-tthhaann,, and --yyoouunnggeerr-tthhaann options may be used to control
which requests are listed.uustat -list
Display status for all systems with queued up commands. A sample out-
put line is as follows:bugs 4C (1 hour) 0X (0 secs) 04-01 14:45 Dial failed
This indicates the system, the number of queued commands, the age of the oldest queued command, the number of queued local executions, the age of the oldest queued execution, the date of the last conversation, and the status of that conversation.uustat -status
Display conversation status for all remote systems. A sample output line is as follows:bugs 04-01 15:51 Conversation complete
This indicates the system, the date of the last conversation, and thestatus of that conversation. If the last conversation failed, uustat
will indicate how many attempts have been made to call the system. Ifthe retry period is currently preventing calls to that system, uustat
also displays the time when the next call will be permitted.uustat -ps
Display the status of all processes holding UUCP locks. The outputformat is system dependent, as uustat simply invokes ps (1) on each
process holding a lock.uustat -command rmail -older-than 168 -kill-all -no-list -mail -notify -comment "Queued for over 1 week"
This will kill all rmail commands that have been queued up waiting for delivery for over 1 week (168 hours). For each such command, mail will be sent both to the UUCP administrator and to the user who requested the rmail execution. The mail message sent will include the stringgiven by the --ccoommmmeenntt option. The --nnoo-lliisstt option prevents any of
the jobs from being listed on the terminal, so any output from the pro-
gram will be error messages.SEE ALSO
