Displays the BNU job queue and deletes specified jobs from the queue.
uuq [ -l | -h ] [ -sSystemName ] [ -uUser ] [ -dJobNumber ] [ -rSpoolDir ] [ -bBaudRate ]
Note: Only a user with root authority can use the -d flag.
The uuq command is used to list or delete job entries in the Basic Networking Utilities (BNU) job queue.
When listing jobs, the uuq command uses a format similar to that used by the ls command. In the default format, the uuq command lists only the job numbers of the jobs waiting in the queue, followed by a summary line for each system.
In summary format (uuq -h) only the summary lines are listed. Summary lines give:
In the long format (uuq -l), which can be quite slow, the information listed for each job is:
S | Sending a file |
R | Receiving a file |
X | Executing a command on the remote system |
A user with root authority can use the -dJobNumber flag to delete jobs from the queue after running a uuq listing to discover the job numbers.
-bBaudRate | Uses the baud rate given, instead of the default (1200 baud), to compute the transfer time. |
-d JobNumber | Deletes the job designated by the JobNumber variable from the BNU queue. Only someone with root authority can delete jobs from the queue. |
-h | Shows only the summary lines for each system. |
-l | Lists the output in the long format. |
-sSystemName | Lists only jobs for systems whose system names begin with the string specified in the SystemName variable. |
-r SpoolDir | Searches for files in the spooling directory designated by the SpoolDir variable, instead of in the default spooling directory. |
-uUser | Lists only jobs queued by users whose login names begin with the string specified in the User variable. |
uuq -l -shera
uuq -h
uuq -l -unitaThis produces a list of jobs spooled for user nita. Find the job you wish to remove. If its job number is 13451, for example, the following command will delete the job:
uuq -d13451
Note: You must have root authority or be logged in as uucp to delete jobs from the queue.
/usr/bin/uuq | Contains the uuq command. |
/var/spool/uucp/SystemName | Contains spool files for the remote system designated by SystemName. |
/var/spool/uucp/SystemName/C.* | Contain instructions for file transfers. |
/var/spool/uucp/SystemName/D.* | Contain information about data files to be transferred. |
