Every \&\fIinnwatchsleeptime\fR seconds, as set in \fIinn.conf\fR, it examines the load average, and the number of free blocks and inodes on the spool partition, as described by its control file, \fIinnwatch.ctl\fR in \fIpathetc\fR. .PP If the load gets too high, or the disk gets too full, it throttles the server. When the condition restores, it unblocks the server. In addition, on each pass through the loop, it will check the logfile \&\fIpathlog\fR/news.crit to see if it has been modified, and send mail to the news administrator if so. .PP Upon receipt of an interrupt signal (\s-1SIGINT\s0), \fBinnwatch\fR will report its status in the file \fIinnwatch.status\fR in \fIpathrun\fR. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "\fB\-f\fR \fIfile\fR" 4 .IX Item "-f file" Specify the control file to use, other than the default of \&\fIinnwatch.ctl\fR in \fIpathetc\fR. .IP "\fB\-i\fR \fIseconds\fR" 4 .IX Item "-i seconds" With this option, \fBinnwatch\fR has an initial sleep of \fIseconds\fR seconds at startup.
