uuq Command

Purpose

Displays the BNU job queue and deletes specified jobs from the queue.

Syntax

uuq [  -l |  -h ] [  -sSystemName ] [  -uUser ] [  -dJobNumber ] [  -rSpoolDir ] [  -bBaudRate ]

Description

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:

• System name
• Number of jobs for the system
• Total number of bytes to send

In the long format (uuq -l), which can be quite slow, the information listed for each job is:

• Job number
• Number of files to transfer
• User who sent the job
• Number of bytes to be sent
• Type of job requested:

  Item	Description
  S	Sending a file
  R	Receiving a file
  X	Executing a command on the remote system

• File to be sent or received or the command to be executed

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.

Flags

Examples

1. To get a long listing of all jobs spooled for system hera, type:

   uuq  -l  -shera

2. To get a summary listing for all systems, type:

   uuq  -h

3. To delete a job for user nita from the queue, first use the uuq command to find the number of the job you want to delete, as follows:

   uuq  -l  -unita

   This 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.
