weird AT command question

[WiccaChic]

Is there a way to view what a job scheduled with AT is going to do? For instance, when I use at -l I see job root.1086739200.a is going to run tonight, but is there a way to see what that job will actually do?

well - for one, it will all depends on what command or script you setup to run. "at" command is somewhat similar to "crontab" though usually use to run script or command one-time.

What's in /var/spool/atjobs?

Johny2k - If I scheduled it I would not be interested in looking...its other folks jobs I want to examine. This is a big box.

Unixfreak - I do not have such a file, I suspect thats where "normal unix" would place the jobs? This is AIX and of course IBM has to do everything in a non-standard way.

Got, thanks to you unixfreak - that atjobs folder was just in a different spot:
more /var/spool/cron/atjobs/root.1086825600.a

-thanks
