On a Unix based system you can use the cron facilities to perform periodic mantenance and the startup script to perform onetime chores when the UniVerse daemons are first started.
The same thing can be done under Windoze by using either the builtin scheduler or a cron substitute. Replacing the shortcut or start menu link with a script or batch file would take care of the startup process. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/09/04 12:04PM >>> In D3 there is a coldstart process that runs when the database is started which is useful from an applications stand point by clearing status files, starting application phantoms and general cleanup. There does not seem to be an equivalent mechanism in Universe. What have people done to provide similar and reliable functionality? -Troy -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
