WEDGED(8C)WEDGED(8C)NAMEwedged - HylaFAX modem wedged script
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/wedged devid device
DESCRIPTION
bin/wedged is the command script invoked by the facsimile server when a
modem is deemed to be in an irreparable state and requires operator
intervention. This decision is based on the setting of the MaxSetupAt‐
tempts configuration parameter described in hylafax-config(5F). The
default wedged script sends electronic mail to the FaxMaster alias. The
interval at which emails are sent can be configured in the etc/FaxDis‐
patch file by setting the WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL variable to the desired
number of minutes (emails will be sent no more than every
WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL minutes, until the wedged condition persists).
If the variable WEDGED_DISABLE_FAXGETTY is set in etc/FaxDispatch then
the script will attempt to disable any faxgetty processes spawned by
the init(8C) process for the problematic modem. In addition the
faxq(8C) process automatically disables use of the modem for servicing
outbound jobs.
The devid argument is the identifier derived from the name of the
modem's device file by substituting ``_'' characters for ``/'' charac‐
ters; e.g. term_10 for /dev/term/10. The device argument is the name
of the character special device associated with the modem.
If there exists an executable file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/resetmodem
then that file will be executed upon execution of the wedged script in
an effort to recover the modem.
