Setting Up the Job Scheduler
Table 14-1
Field
Month of year
Day of week
For example, the following time entry specifies every hour at 15 minutes (1:15, 2:15, 3:15
and so on):
15 * * * *
The following example specifies a job execution time of noon on April 12:
0 12 12 4 *
The day-of-month and day-of-week fields can contain a comma-separated list of values to
specify more than one day. If both day fields are specified, the specification is inclusive;
that is, the day of the month is not required to fall on the day of the week to be valid. For
example, the following entry specifies a job execution time of midnight on the first and
fifteenth of every month, and on every Monday:
0 0 1,15 * 1
To specify one day type without the other, use an asterisk in the other day field. For
example, the following entry specifies a job execution time of 3:15 a.m. on every weekday
morning:
15 3 * * 1-5
