a boincRnice command for fedora

#
# boincRnice - change the nice value of boinc procs
#
# call as "boincRnice 5" to change value to 5
#

$SUDO=""

# Not a privileged user - use sudo
if [ `id -u` != 0 ] ; then
$SUDO=sudo
fi


for procid in `ps -elfa|grep boinc|grep -v grep|cut -d ' ' -f 8`
do
$SUDO renice $1 $procid;
done

oops - should have been::

#
# boincRnice - change the nice value of boinc procs
#
# call as "boincRnice 5" to change value to 5
#

SUDO=""

# Not a privileged user - use sudo
if [ `id -u` != 0 ] ; then
SUDO=sudo
fi


for procid in `ps -elfa|grep boinc|grep -v grep|cut -d ' ' -f 8`
do
$SUDO renice $1 $procid;
done

A better way of doing the pid list. THE FIRST WAY DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY.

#
# boincRnice - change the nice value of boinc procs
#
# call as "boincRnice 5" to change value to 5
#

$SUDO=""

# Not a privileged user - use sudo
if [ `id -u` != 0 ] ; then
$SUDO=sudo
fi


for procid in `ps -o pid --user boinc`
do
$SUDO renice $1 $procid;
done
