The proctorin and proctorout commands must be run on the proctor time clock terminal in 102 WVH. All other commands are available to the proctors on any CCIS UNIX machine.

proctorin and proctorout
These commands make entries into the proctor timeclock database, which is used to generate the payroll lists for the part time proctors, and to verify timecards for the work/study proctors. You must proctorin immediately upon starting a shift, and proctorout when your shift ends. (Note: If the proctorin terminal in 102 is not responding, try power-cycling the terminal. Not the computer on which the terminal rests, just the display terminal.) Any problems with this system must be reported to lab-admin immediately.
preport
The preport [days] command lists a report form the proctor timeclock database. The report defaults to 7 days. This report is used to generate the part time payroll, and is used to verify work/study timecards. Any errors in the report must be reported to lab-admin immediately. Use this command to keep track of your hours, and to fill out work/study timecards.
proctors
The UNIX command proctors prints out a list of the current CCIS proctors and their user names.
schedule
The schedule command has several options:

schedule <option>

[ -d ] <days of the week>
[ -h ] <help>
[ -r ] <room number>
[ -u ] <username>
[ -v ] <version number>

killx
Kills a user's session on an xlocked computer.

To run, ssh to the target machine and type "sudo /ccs/adm/bin/killx". You will be prompted for your password. Please ensure that the machine is really xlocked. Enter "y" to kill the user's xsession.

checkload
Checks the load of all the machines in 102 and shows the highest 3 processes.

/ccs/adm/proctors

The directory /ccs/adm/proctors contains files proctors might find useful, such as a proctor FAQ, a file of frequently asked questions. Proctors are encouraged to make additions to these files.
