Is it possible to automatically run checkfs every day and e-mail
the
results? I used to have some kind of task scheduler on BeOS/Zeta
that
could run a binary at a specified interval, but not sure something
like
that exists for Haiku.
Does the launch daemon do that? You could use one of the "cron"
programs to
do that sort of thing (AGMSScriptOCron could do it). Or you could
write a
Bash script with a time delayed loop to do it, though I haven't tried
it,
it would look something like this:
#!/bin/sh
i=0
while ((i < 10000))
do
echo "`date` #$i"
sync
checkfs /boot | mail -s "Daily Disk Check" joe@xxxxxxxxxxx
sleep 1d
i=$(($i + 1))
done
Missed this the first round, but the mail command you use in your
example does not exist on my system.
Do you have something that can easily send an e-mail like that?
I have written something similar (getting data from a database, though)
which I could rewrite to send mail like this.
Kind regards,
Mark
