I am currently looking at running a script which will run from CRON, say every 1 minute. The script will invoke Universe and the process may take more than 1 minute to complete.
If I remember correctly, there was a problem when doing this, whereby the second, third and so on executions of the script would fail if the first execution was still executing Universe. Something to do with the job leader and how Universe assigns shared memory segments. Some people on this list, Glenn Herbert even had some code which got around this by reassing the group to the process ID or something along those lines. Anyway, I am running UV 10.1.12 on RHEL 3.0 and this does not seem to be the case anymore. I have created a test paragraph which does the following TEST PA DIVERT.OUT ON OUTPUT TEST APPEND DATE WHO SLEEP 300 DATE DIVERT.OUT OFF OUTPUT TEST and this is invoked by a script which calls /UVHOME/bin/uv TEST When I look at the contents of the OUTPUT TEST record there is information from multiple UV processes which are all running at the same time. Can someone, please confirm, that there once was a problem, but maybe now it has been fixed, or am I missing something....
