Only one comes to mind: IMNSO, the only OSes I've seen that don't do better with weekly restarts are VMS and MVS (maybe OS/390, I haven't worked with it much.)

Holding a lock for a week at a time and doing a controlled restart should be entirely safe under Windows NT 4.0 or later, any modern Linux, SCO, etc.

Rather than re-inventing the wheel, are there parts of Big Brother or Nagios that could save you some coding time?

Abigail: Thanks for the good idea, I've got a problem similar to Nitrox's in my current project and I like your solution an awful lot better than what I'm doing now. ++.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
