12 bin/wedged is the command script invoked by the facsimile server when a
13 modem is deemed to be in an irreparable state and requires operator
14 intervention. This decision is based on the setting of the MaxSetupAt‐
15 tempts configuration parameter described in hylafax-config(5F). The
16 default wedged script sends electronic mail to the FaxMaster alias. The
17 interval at which emails are sent can be configured in the
18 etc/FaxWedged file by setting the WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL variable to the
19 desired number of minutes (emails will be sent no more than every
20 WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL minutes, until the wedged condition persists).
21 If the variable WEDGED_DISABLE_FAXGETTY is set in etc/FaxWedged then
22 the script will attempt to disable any faxgetty processes spawned by
23 the init(8C) process for the problematic modem. In addition the
24 faxq(8C) process automatically disables use of the modem for servicing
25 outbound jobs.
26 The devid argument is the identifier derived from the name of the
28 modem's device file by substituting ``_'' characters for ``/'' charac‐
29 ters; e.g. term_10 for /dev/term/10. The device argument is the name
30 of the character special device associated with the modem.
31 If there exists an executable file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/resetmodem
33 then that file will be executed (with the device name as the only argu‐
34 ment) upon execution of the wedged script in an effort to recover the
35 modem.
