DESCRIPTION

15       The wracct utility allows the  administrator  to  invoke  the  extended
16       accounting  system, if active, to write intermediate records represent‐
17       ing the resource usage of a selected set of  processes  or  tasks.  For
18       tasks, a record_type option is also supported, allowing the administra‐
19       tor to request the writing of:
20
21           o      an interval record, which reflects task usage since a previ‐
22                  ous  interval  record (or since task creation if there is no
23                  interval record), or
24
25           o      a partial record, which reflects usage since task creation.
26

OPTIONS

28       The following options are supported:
29
30       -i id_list        Select the IDs of the tasks  or  processes  to  write
31                         records  for.  Specify  id_list as a comma- or space-
32                         separated list of IDs, presented as  a  single  argu‐
33                         ment.  For  some  shells,  this  requires appropriate
34                         quoting of the argument.
35
36
37       -t record_type    Select type of record to write for the selected  task
38                         or  process. For tasks, record_type can be partial or
39                         interval. partial is the default type, and  the  only
40                         type available for process records.
