1.5.17 IfElapsed

This parameter controls the global value of the IfElapsed parameter, See Spamming and security (cfengine-Tutorial). This parameter controls the minimum time which must have elapsed for an action in the action sequence before which it will be executed again.

     
      IfElapsed = ( time-in-minutes )
     

This parameter may also be set per action in the action sequence by appending a pseudo-class called IfElapsedtime. For instance,

     
      ActionSequence = ( copy.IfElapsed15 )
     

sets the elapsed time parameter to 15 minutes for this copy command.
