17 8 * * * root echo “This command is run daily at 8:17 am”
17 20 * * * root echo “This command is run daily at 8:17 pm”
00 4 * * 0 root echo “This command is run at 4 am every Sunday”
* 4 * * Sun root echo “So is this”
42 4 1 * * root echo “This command is run 4:42 am every 1st of the month”
01 * 19 07 * root echo “This command is run hourly on the 19th of July”
Cron also supports ‘step’ values.
A value of */2 in the dom field would mean the command runs every two days
and likewise, */5 in the hours field would mean the command runs every
5 hours.
e.g.
*/15 9-17 * * * root connection.test
Will run connection.test every 15 mins between the hours or 9am and 5pm
