The max run limit message above is often printed on our system console
along with a rescheduling message. This is annoying since we run applications
on the console. (No flames on this please - our budget is tight.)
What causes this message? Where does cron print it? To cron's stderr?
To /dev/console? Is there a way to change the limit? I am hoping that
a simple redirection of stderr in /etc/rc will fix the problem, but although
strings reveals that the message comes from cron, there is no documentation
as to what is means. We run reports using the batch/at -qb command. This
indicates that the message has something to do with the batch queue. But,
we are unable to duplicate the message by queueing up lots of reports!?
Please E-mail responses.
