DESCRIPTION
chargefee Can be invoked to charge a number of units to login-name. A record is written to
/var/adm/fee , to be merged with other accounting records during the night.
ckpacct Should be initiated via cron(1M). It periodically checks the size of /var/adm/pacct
.If
the size exceeds blocks, 1000 by default,
turnacct is invoked with argument switch.If
the number of free disk blocks in the /var file system falls below 500, ckpacct
automatically turns off the collection of process accounting records via the off argument
to turnacct. When at least this number of blocks is restored, the accounting will be
activated again. This feature is sensitive to the frequency at which ckpacct is executed,
usually by cron.
dodisk Should be invoked by cron to perform the disk accounting functions. By default, it will
do disk accounting on the special files in /etc/fstab . If the -o flag is used, it does a
slower version of disk accounting by login directory. files specifies the one or more filesys-
tem names where disk accounting is to be done. If files is used, disk accounting will be
done on these filesystems only. If the
-o flag is used, files should be mount points of
mounted filesystem. If omitted, they should be the special file names of mountable filesys-
tems.
lastlogin Invoked by runacct to update /var/adm/acct/sum/loginlog
which shows the
last date on which each user logged in (see runacct(1M)).
monacct Should be invoked once each month or each accounting period. number indicates which
month or period it is. If number is not given, it defaults to the current month (01 through
12). This default is useful if
monacct is to executed via cron on the first day of each
month. monacct creates summary files in /var/adm/acct/fiscal and restarts
summary files in
/var/adm/acct/sum.
nulladm Creates file with mode 664 and ensures that owner and group are adm. It is called by vari-
ous accounting shell procedures.
prctmp Can be used to print the session record file normally /var/adm/acct/nite/ctmp
created by acctcon1 (see acctcon(1M)).
prdaily Invoked by runacct (see runacct(1M)) to format a report of the previous day’s accounting
data. The report resides in /var/adm/acct/sum/rprtmmdd where mmdd is the
month and day of the report. The current daily accounting reports may be printed by typ-
ing prdaily. Previous days’ accounting reports can be printed by using the mmdd option
and specifying the exact report date desired. The
-l flag prints a report of exceptional
usage by login id for the specifed date. Previous daily reports are cleaned up and therefore
inaccessible after each invocation of monacct. The -c flag prints a report of exceptional
