ATD(8) System Manager's Manual ATD(8)
NAME
atd - run jobs queued for later execution
SYNOPSIS
atd [-l load_avg] [-b batch_interval] [-d] [-f] [-s]
DESCRIPTION
atd runs jobs queued by at(1).
OPTIONS
-l Specifies a limiting load factor, over which batch jobs should
not be run, instead of the compile-time choice of 0.8. This
number is multiplied by the amount of CPUs when comparing to
/proc/loadavg, because loadavg is a sum over all processors on
Linux.
-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). This option also implies -f.
-f Run atd in the foreground.
-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.
WARNING
atd won't work if its spool directory is mounted via NFS even if
no_root_squash is set.
FILES
/var/spool/atjobs The directory for storing jobs; this should be mode
700, owner at.
/var/spool/atspool The directory for storing output; this should be
mode 700, owner at.
/etc/at.allow, /etc/at.deny determine who can use the at system.
SEE ALSO
at(1), at.deny(5), at.allow(5), cron(8), crontab(1), syslog(3).
BUGS
The functionality of atd should be merged into cron(8).
