Default cron limit

I am getting the error:
cron: 0481-087 The c queue maximum run limit has been reached.

I know the queue limit default is 100, can anyone tell me how to view
the queue active and waiting?

I need to be able to see what is causing this over limit activity, but
I really cannot tell what is running to count against the "100" queue
limit.

What is it counting? Can anyone help?

Default Re: cron limit

I'd run 'ps -ef | grep cron' to get cron's pid.
Then, 'ps -ef | grep <pid>'

I also might check out users' crontabs in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs
directory and search for processes based on what I find in the files.
