[Nagios-devel] External Command entry_time
Posted: Wed Feb 06, 2008 1:06 pm
Hello devel,
When an external command is submitted to the FIFO pipe the command is
prepended with a unix timestamp wrapped in []'s. As the command is
processed the timestamp here is parsed out and is set as the
entry_time in the external command struct.
If I submit a command with a timestamp in the future it is still
executed as soon as check_for_external_commands gets to it. What
purpose does this timestamp serve?
