ASL SYSTEM Scheduler

Not to be confused with the system CRON, the system schedular is owned and controlled by ASL/app_rpt

To schedule anything, you should first declare what it is what you want to do by making a MACRO for it in rpt.conf

Setting-Up the system schedular

Multiple entries by line(s) in the following format:


(macro to run when true)= (MM) (HH) (DayOfMonth) (MonthOfYear) (DayOfWeek)

For day of week, Sun starts as 0 (zero) and add one for each later dow as Saturday is 6.

Any item that is all inclusive or 'don't matter/every' can be set with a star ' * ' as a wildcard.

There must be 5 time/day entries, STAR included.

Examples:

1=00 06 * * *  ;(run macro 1 at the 6th hour of any day)

51=05 * * * * ;update wx fcst at 05min every hour every day

91=40 3 * * *  ;/tmp cleanup script every 12hrs 3:40a

92=40 15 * * *  ;/tmp cleanup script every 12hrs 15:40p

93=59 23 * * *  ; archive logs daily at 59th min of only the 23rd hour every day.


94=59 20 * * 5  ; start net links at 8:59 on Friday

99=00 18 25 12 *  ; merry xmas announcement 6pm dec 25


Summary

When the TIME / DATE statement is true, the selected macro will be run once only until true again.

You should create comments on each line to remember what it is for in the case you need to make adjustments.
