• The /var/adm/acct/nite/active mmdd file is created if the script
has not successfully completed. This file contains information about the
script execution; you can use it to determine where the script failed.
• The /var/adm/acct/nite/statefile file contains the name of the
last state that the runacct shell script executed. Note that the
runacct shell script may not have successfully completed this state.
• The /var/adm/acct/nite/lastdate file contains the date of the last
runacct shell script execution. If the date specified in the file is the
current date, the shell script will not run.
If the runacct shell script fails or terminates before it is completed, you
must restart the script from its last successfully completed state. The
/var/adm/acct/nite/statefile file contains the name of the state that
was last executed.
The runacct shell script has the following syntax:
/usr/sbin/acct/runacct
[ mmdd][state]
The mmdd variable specifies the date for which you want to run the
runacct shell script. Use the
state variable to specify the state from
which you want the runacct script to start processing.
If the runacct shell script fails on more than one successive day, invoke
the SETUP state commands manually.
_______________________ Note _______________________
Before you restart the runacct shell script, you should remove
the /var/adm/acct/nite/lock file and the
/var/adm/acct/nite/lastdate file.
