NAME
faxstat - display HylaFAX status
SYNOPSIS
faxstat [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
faxstat reports the status of HylaFAX servers, including (potentially)
the status of the send, receive, done, document, and archive
directories. When invoked without options faxstat reports only the
status of the server; the options described below can be used to
override this behaviour.
Server status information indicates the state of the server (idle,
sending, receiving, etc.) and the phone number that is associated with
the fax modem.
The job queue report give the status of facsimile jobs queued for
transmission; by default:
o the job identifier,
o the job state (see below for the description of the a format in the
JobFmt string),
o the modem or modem class the job is bound to (``any'' if the job can
be sent though any modem),
o the destination (phone number) of the job,
o the time to send the job, or a blank field if the job is being
processed or is to be sent immediately,
o the job's owner,
o and status information about the job (typically the reason why a
previous attempt failed).
The receive queue report lists the facsimile documents that have been
received and are awaiting delivery; by default it includes:
o the document protection mode,
o the number of pages,
o the document's owner,
o the phone number of the sender (if supplied),
o the date and time at which the job was received, and
o the filename of the document in the recvq directory on the server
machine.
OPTIONS
-a Display the contents of the archive directory on the server
machine
-d Display the status of all jobs that have completed; i.e.
those jobs located in the doneq directory on the server
machine. The JobFmt string defines the content and format of
information reported with this option.
-f Display the status of document files located in the docq
directory on the server machine. The FileFmt string defines
the content and format of information reported with this
option (see below).
-g Display times and dates in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). NB:
this is the default.
-h host Report the status of the server on a specific host. The host
may be either a symbolic name or a network address. If no -h
option is supplied, faxstat uses the FAXSERVER environment
variable to identify the HylaFAX server to contact. If this
variable is not set, then faxstat checks for a setting in the
configuration files (first in the per-user file and then in
the system-wide file). If all of the above fails, then
faxstat attempts to contact a server on the machine where it
is run.
-i Display additional status information for the server as given
by /var/spool/hylafax/status/any.info. This status typically
has information such as the HylaFAX version, the physical
location of the server machine, and an administrative contact
for the server. See status(5F).
-l Display times and dates in the local timezone of the server.
-r Display the receive queue status for each server. The RcvFmt
string defines the content and format of information reported
with this option (see below).
-s Display the status of jobs in the send queue on the server
machine. The JobFmt string defines the content and format of
information reported with this option (see below).
-v Trace the protocol exchanges between faxstat and the hfaxd
processes on the standard output.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
faxstat reads configuration information from the file
/usr/local/lib/fax/hyla.conf and then from the file ~/.hylarc.
Configuration files follow the conventions described in
hylafax-client(1). The following configuration parameters are
recognized:
Tag Type Default Description
FileFmt string see below format string for file status results
Host string localhost host to contact for service
JobFmt string see below format string for job status results
ModemFmt string see below format string for modem status results
PassiveMode boolean false whether or not to use passive mode
Port integer 4559 port to use in contacting server
Protocol string tcp protocol to use in contacting server
RcvFmt string see below format string for received facsimile status results
TimeZone string GMT timezone to use for reporting dates and times
Verbose boolean No whether or not to enable protocol tracing
The configuration parameters are explained below:
FileFmt The format string to use when returning file status
information with the -f option. Formats are specified
using printf(3S)-style conventions but using the field
identifiers listed below. Each item can include field
width, precision, left-justification, 0-filling, etc.
just as for printf; e.g. %-8p for an 8-character wide,
left-justified, blank-padded field containing the file
protection flags.

option.)
JobFmt The format string to use when returning job status
information for the -s and -d options. Formats are
specified using printf(3S)-style conventions but using
the field identifiers listed below. Each item can
include field width, precision, left-justification,
0-filling, etc. just as for printf; e.g. %-3j for a
3-character wide, left-justified, blank-padded field
containing the job state.

The K format produces: ``D'' if ECM is to be disabled, ``
'' (space) if ECM use is enabled, ``H'' if T.30 Annex C
half duplex is enabled, or ``F'' if T.30 Annex C full
duplex is enabled.
The N format produces: `` '' (space) if the system-wide
tagline format is to be used or ``P'' if a private
tagline format is to be used.
The O format produces: ``N'' if no continuation cover
page is to be used or `` '' (space) if the system default
handling for continuation cover pages is to be used.
The X format produces: ``F'' for a facsimile job or ``P''
for a pager job.
The a format produces: ``?'' for a job in an undefined
state, ``T'' for a suspended job (not being scheduled),
``P'' for a pending job (waiting for its time to send to
arrive), ``S'' for a sleeping job (waiting for a
scheduled timeout such as a delay between attempts to
send), ``B'' for a job blocked by concurrent activity to
the same destination, ``W'' for a job waiting for
resources such as a free modem, ``R'' for a job that is
actively running, and ``D'' for a job that is done and
was a success. ``F'' for a job that failed to complete.
The h format produces: ``D'' if page chopping is
disabled, `` '' (space) for the system default page chop
handling, ``A'' when all pages are to be chopped, or
``L'' if only the last page is to be chopped.
The n format produces: `` '' (space) when no notification
messages are to be delivered, ``D'' when notification is
to be sent when the job is done, ``Q'' when notification
is to be sent each time the job is requeued, or ``A''
when notification is to be sent for either the job
completing or being requeued.
It is recommended that all items include a field width so
that the width of column title strings can be constrained
when constructing headers from the format string.
ModemFmt The format string to use when returning modem status
information. Formats are specified using
printf(3S)-style conventions but using the field
identifiers listed below. Each item can include field
width, precision, left-justification, 0-filling, etc.
just as for printf; e.g. %-8h for an 8-character wide,
left-justified, blank-padded field containing the name of
the host the server is running on.
Format Description

m Canonical modem name
n FAX phone number
r Maximum pages that can be received in a single call
s Status information string
t Server and session tracing levels (xxxxx:yyyyy)
v Modem speaker volume as one-character symbol
z A ``*'' if a faxgetty(8C) process is running; otherwise `` '' (space)
PassiveMode
Whether or not to use passive mode in communication with the
server.
Port The network port to contact for service. (Equivalent to
the -h option.)
Protocol The name of the communication protocol to use when
contacting a server. (Equivalent to the FAXSERVICE
environment variable.)
RcvFmt The format string to use when returning status
information for the -r option. Formats are specified
using printf(3S)-style conventions but using the field
identifiers listed below. Each item can include field
width, precision, left-justification, 0-filling, etc.
just as for printf; e.g. %-3b for a 3-character wide,
left-justified, blank-padded field containing the
signalling rate.

It is recommended that all items include a field width so
that the width of column title strings can be constrained
when constructing headers from the format string.
TimeZone Control whether times and dates are reported in the local
timezone of the server (``local'') or in GMT (``gmt'').
By default times are reported in GMT.
