We are using CVS monitor internally. I have setup a cron job to execute cvsexec.pl daily at specified times (every 4 hours).

During the last update I encountered problems unrelated to CVS monitor which prevented the update from completing. Subsequent updates which were executed by the cronjob also failed with the error message "Cannot checkout from a 'Unavailable' state".

I have to manually issue a Recover command for each registered module via the web interface.

Is there a way to do this with cvsexec.pl? Or, is there a "Recover All" command?

  Not at this time, but if anyone wanted to implement the "Do What I Mean" command, which would auto-recover, checkout or update as needed reasonably intelligently, it would be relatively easy.
