You've received many excellent suggestions.  A simple one might be a
single string job queue.

This is a monitoring job that continuously runs. I want our start up
program
(which we run for backups) to automatically start it up if it is down, but
I
don't want many versions of it running at once.

Leif,

> what am I missing? jobs are UNIQUE on the system. The 26 character

I think the poster was after a singleton job, i.e. there must be only one
of
these jobs running on the system at anytime, like inetd on Unix, because
it's function (or resources) can not be shared or would cause a conflict.
