Cron - Alcatel-Lucent 7450 ESS-12 Configuration Manual

CRON

The CRON command supports the Service Assurance Agent (SAA) functions as well as the ability
to schedule turning on and off policies to meet "Time of Day" requirements. CRON functionality
includes the ability to specify the commands that need to be run, when they will be scheduled,
including one-time only functionality (oneshot), interval and calendar functions, as well as where
to store the output of the results. In addition, CRON can specify the relationship between input,
output and schedule. Scheduled reboots, peer turn ups, service assurance agent tests and more can
all be scheduled with Cron, as well as OAM events, such as connectivity checks, or
troubleshooting runs.
