Hi Dan,
Hmm, irush is running the same command, so there really shouldn't
be any difference I don't think.
If a job is rendering, and you change it to 'waitfor 22:00'
(ie. wait until 10pm tonight), it acts like 'pause':

(unless you use eg. 'rush -que run' to requeue them)
Here's a test I just ran with 102.42a9d, and the results seem
correct:
$ rush -lj
STATUS JOBID TITLE OWNER %DONE %FAIL BUSY ELAPSED REMARKS
-------- ---------------- ------------------------- -------------- ----- ----- ---- ---------- --------
Run ta.1 TEST_WAITFOR erco %0 %0 1 00:00:02
$ rush -waitfor 22:00 -fu ta.1
waitfor 22:00: WaitFor Time=22:00,12/02/2011
$ rush -lj
STATUS JOBID TITLE OWNER %DONE %FAIL BUSY ELAPSED REMARKS
-------- ---------------- ------------------------- -------------- ----- ----- ---- ---------- --------
Wait ta.1 TEST_WAITFOR erco %0 %0 1 00:00:13 Wait for 22:00,12/02/2011
^^^^ ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You should immediately see the job enter the 'Wait' state (STATUS=Wait)
after running the '-waitfor 22:00', but busy frames will still continue
to run (BUSY=1)
To also stop the rendering frames, you'd need to requeue them as a
second step, with e.g. 'rush -que run ta.1 -fu' or similar.
Then they too won't restart until 10pm.
This all should be the expected behavior; let me know if you're
seeing or expecting something else.
