simple at question

I don't usually us at. What occurs to an at command when the system is re-booted. I assume it stays in /var/spool/cron/atjobs and waits for cron to execute it.

Also, is there an at job log for post execution checking?

Thanks in advance,
Doug

Re: simple at question

Hi,

You will have to check the logfile if the atjob has been executed. I think if it is not executed the job will remain in the /var/spool/cron/atjobs, cron executes the jobs so the logfile is /var/adm/cron/log.

Hope this helps,

Doug,

Yes, an at job will survive a reboot and, as Robert-jan points out, it's logged in the cron log.
