DESCRIPTION
You can invoke chargefee to charge a number of units to login-
name. A record is written to /usr/adm/fee, to be merged with
other accounting records during the night.
Initiate ckpacct via cron(1M). It periodically checks the size
of /usr/adm/pacct. If the size exceeds blocks, 1000 by default,
turnacct is invoked with argument switch. If the number of free
disk blocks in the /usr file system falls below 500, ckpacct
automatically turns off the collection of process accounting
records via the off argument to turnacct. When at least 500
blocks are restored, accounting is reactivated. This feature is
sensitive to the frequency at which ckpacct is executed, usually
by cron.
Invoke dodisk by cron to perform the disk accounting functions.

The disk accounting functions keep track of disk usage by user.
By default, disk accounting is performed on special files in
/etc/fstab.
Lastlogin is invoked by runacct (see runacct(1M)) to update
/usr/adm/acct/sum/loginlog, which shows the last date each person
logged in.
Invoke monacct once each month or each accounting period. Number
indicates which month or period it is. If you omit number, it
defaults to the current month (01-12). This default is useful if
monacct is executed via cron(1M) on the first day of each month.
Monacct creates summary files in /usr/adm/acct/fiscal and
restarts summary files in /usr/adm/acct/sum.
Nulladm creates file with mode 664 and ensures that owner and
group are adm. It is called by accounting shell procedures.
Prctmp prints the session record file (normally
/usr/adm/acct/nite/ctmp) created by acctcon1 (see acctcon(1M)).
Prdaily is invoked by runacct (see runacct(1M)) to format a
report of the previous day's accounting data. The report resides
in /usr/adm/acct/sum/rprtmmdd, where mmdd is the month and day of
the report. You can print the current daily accounting reports
by typing prdaily. To print a previous day's accounting reports,
use the mmdd option and specify the report date.
Prtacct formats and prints any total accounting (tacct) file.
During a system shutdown, you should invoke shutacct (usually in
/etc/shutdown) to turn process accounting off and append a
``reason'' record to /etc/wtmp.
To turn accounting on when the system is brought up, call startup
with /etc/rc.
Turnacct is an interface to accton (see acct(1M)) to turn process
accounting on or off. The switch argument turns accounting off,
moves the current /usr/adm/pacct to the next free name in
/usr/adm/pacctincr, then turns accounting back on again. Incr is
a number starting with 1 and increasing by one for each
additional pacct file. Since ckpacct calls this procedure, cron
can maintain it and keep pacct to a reasonable size.
