    Hi,

    I want to make changes to inittab file and reread it using "telinit q" to make changes effective immediately. Is it safe to do that while important apps are running ?

    thanks

    i editted /var/adm/cron/queuedefs file. and was recommended to run the telinit q command. changed from # b.50j20n60w
    c.200j20n60w
    from that file since our cron is not running and we get this error in cron log:
    our cron is not running and from the cron log, it gives this error:
    ! 0481-095 The cron job is being rescheduled.

    after changed the configuration and telinit q, still the cron is not running and the error in cron log persist. hope to hear from you. thank you
