Cron is a Linux system process that will execute a program at a preset time. To use cron you must prepare a text file that describes the program that you want executed and the times that cron should execute them. Then you use the crontab program to load the text file that describes the cron jobs into cron.
Here is the format of a cron job file:
[min] [hour] [day of month] [month] [day of week] [program to be run] where each field is defined as
[min] Minutes that program should be executed on. 0-59. Do not set as * or the program will be run once a minute.
