Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Unix at command ???
Janet,
From the command line type man at and you will see the correct
format to enter a "at" string.
The basic format is "at -f file_to_execute HH:MM" This will execute
the file at the time specified if the time is in the future. If the time
is in the past it will take the next occurrence of the time(tomorrow).
You can also use the MMDDYY in the string to specify the date to execute
the file.
"at" is used for a one time execution of a command. If you would like
the command to execute at a set repetition use "cron"
ROR mª¿ªm

Hi all,
I'd like to run a file (r2) at 15:10 Apr 2. Below was what I did and I could not get out of at normally.
/export/home/oracle/test$ at 15:10 Apr 2
at> r2 at> EOF at> <EOF> at> <EOT> at> EOT at> ^Z[19] + Stopped (SIGTSTP) at 15:10 Apr 2
I tried EOF according to the on-line doc, and also tried EOT, but none works. Finally I used Control Z to get out of at. I was out, but the script file didn't run.
So what's the correct syntax to run the command at a specific date, time? Thank you!
Janet
