Supposing a file "STUDENT USERIDS' contains the userids of all students, you
could create a new virtual machine with this as its PROFILE EXEC:
/* */
address command
today=date('S')
do forever
if date('S')<>today then call NewDay
call collect
'CP SLEEP 60 MIN'
'CP SLEEP 60 MIN'
'CP SLEEP 60 MIN'
'CP SLEEP 60 MIN'
end
NewDay:
'EXEC SENDFILE' today 'INDUSER A TO professor'
if rc=0 then 'ERASE' today 'INDUSER A'
today=date('S')
return
Collect:
'PIPE < STUDENT USERIDS', /* Read list of students */
'|SPLIT', /* One userid per record */
'|INSERT /IND USER /', /* Construct IND USER xxx command */
'|CP', /* Execute command */
'|>>' today 'INDUSER A'
return
