EROS DATA CENTER The following programs have been submitted by the USGS/EROS Data center; [EROS.BATCHACC] This directory contains Batchacc, a program that sets the account number of the current batch job to that of the submitting process at the time of submission. [EROS.HOGS] This directory contains a revised version of a very useful system monitoring utility found on a previous symposium tape. [EROS.LIMITER] This directory contains Limiter, a program which enforces a limit to the number of interactive sessions per usercode. It also gives the user a "barometer" of system performance. [EROS.NOPE] This directory contains Nope, a utility which lists files that would be purged if a purge were performed. Nope handles full wildcarding, and indicates filenames and sizes of files that would be deleted, along with a grand total. [EROS.PASS] This directory contains a re-release of Pass. This program disallows re-use of passwords. One bug is fixed, and several improvements have been made. [EROS.PCT] This directory contains PCT, a utility which allows users to monitor their CPU usage since login and since last run of PCT. [EROS.SYSTAT] This directory contains Systat and Memstat. Systat shows information about batch and interactive processes. Memstat shows information about memory usage by processes. NOTE: I have begun a total rewrite of the BOUNCER idle terminal killer. The new version should be very adaptable to most systems and will allow the system manager to select exempt users and terminals. Many other parameters will also be selectable and the code will be even more efficient. The new version should be ready well before the Spring 88 DECUS symposium. ******************************************************************************** * DISCLAIMER * DISCLAIMER * DISCLAIMER * DISCLAIMER * DISCLAIMER * DISCLAIMER * Neither I nor the U.S. Geological Survey assume any responsibility whatsoever for any use, misuse or abuse of this software.
