    Create a cron schedule

    Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

    Description

    The job schedule cron create command creates a cron schedule. A cron schedule, like a UNIX cron job, runs at a specified time. You can also specify months, days of the month, or days of the week on which the schedule will run.

    If you specify values for both days of the month and days of the week, they are considered independently. For example, a cron schedule with the day specification Friday, 13 runs every Friday and on the 13th day of each month, not just on every Friday the 13th.

    Parameters

    [-cluster <Cluster name>] - Cluster

    This parameter specifies the name of the cluster on which you want to create a cron schedule. By default, the schedule is created on the local cluster. In a MetroCluster configuration, the partner cluster can be specified if the local cluster is in switchover state.

    This parameter specifies the name of the Vserver on which you want to create a cron schedule.
