cron Jobs

During installation, DataMgr puts entries in the

root crontab

that perform the tasks described below. If the default schedule
does not suit your site’s needs, edit the

cron

file. For more

information, see

“Edit cron File” on page 3-10

.

DMFS cron job

On all DMFS Clients, the

crontab

performs the following

jobs:

Nightly at Midnight: Runs the

/etc/dmfs/usr/utils/dmfsscan

utility, which

migrates client files based on configured watermarks. For
more information, see

“Back Up Databases” on page 3-6

,

and refer to the

Utility Reference

in System Administrator’s

Guide to Using DataMgr.

Sunday at 1 a.m.: Runs the

/etc/dmfs/usr/utils/dmfsaudit

utility, which

synchronizes databases. For more information, refer to the

Utility Reference chapter

in System Administrator’s Guide

to Using DataMgr.

Nightly at 11:45 p.m.: Runs the

/etc/dm/usr/utils/clearlog.sh

script, which backs

up the SSD log to

/etc/dm/log/

ssd

/

transfile

and

truncates the file. The SSD log indicates each record ID,
bitfile ID, and file name that has been migrated by DataMgr.
It also contains a file that registers all the AMASS
transactions. After running the

clearlog.sh

script,

DataMgr saves the SSD log as

transfile.x.

For more

information, see

“Save SSD Logs” on page 3-9

. The

clearlog

script also saves the current and last four system

logs.
