power/cooling warning messages. When a power or cooling error is encountered,
AIX adds an entry to the crontab file to "wall" a warning message every 12
hours, alerting/reminding the customer of the problem. Replacing the faulty part
does not clear this crontab entry, so unless the crontab file is edited to remove
this entry, the customer will continue to be reminded of the failure despite it's
having been repaired. The AIX command crontab -l reads the crontab file to
determine if an entry exists. The crontab -e command edits the file.
