I am wanting to use 'at' to execute a number of jobs succesively, not concurrently. I have tried using 'at' as it is, but as it is, it will execute all the jobs on the queue concurrently.
No, it doesn't. It executes each job at the exact time you specify for it to run. If you specify several jobs for a single entry, of course they will run simultaneously.
Is there a file where I can define the number of jobs active at any time to be 1?
I thought that I had done this with a previous version of SuSE, (7.* or 8.*), but it may have been a solaris system I was 'playing' on.
Perhaps you are thinking of 'batch'. Or you can feed a script to 'at': each job on the script will run exactly when the previous one finishes. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
