Two nations, divided by a single language...(or maybe it's just my age)

UV doesn't have a scheduler as such, but there's any number of ways to
implement one - at the simplest level, Phantom a process to sleep till 3 am,
do something and Phantom itself again.

You could try using cron to do a "ps -ef | grep uv" or "PORT.STATUS" every
[nn secs] between midnight and 6 am to see what changes. Pretty simplistic
approach which will work well if you're expecting the system to be sound
asleep, less well if they kick off a couple of hundred batch jobs during
that time.

In general though, whatever process is doing the "horking" is either running
(but sleeping) at 23:00, or being kicked off by another process that is. If
you've eliminated cron have a look at whatever else is running around 23:00,
especially if it involves uv - can you explain what each is doing ?

Perhaps post the output from "ps -ef" at 23:00 here ( maybe even add a
technical definition of "horking" for the more backward nations between you
and continental Europe)

Subject: [U2] [UV] To Cron or Not To Cron?


I have a client system running UV 9.6 on Linux, and sometime between
midnight and 4am in the morning, there's a job getting started that is
horking up some data.  I've checked cron and I'm not seeing anything
getting started there, any other ideas where I should look?  UV itself
doesn't have a scheduler, does it?
