I have requirement to trigger a cron job for every 5 minutes everyday from 06:00 am to 05:45 pm.
I am able to generate expression 0 0/5 06-18 * * ? which triggers every 5 minutes everyday from 06:00 am to 06:59 pm.
Please help me with creating expression which runs every 5 minutes everyday from 06:00 am to 05:45 pm.
Thanks.
You can try this cron expression */5 5-6 1-31 1-12 *
May be this will help you - https://crontab.guru/#/5_6-7_1-31_1-12_

I have a Rundeck job that I would like to schedule to run from Sunday at 10 am to Friday at 17:00.
I could create three separate instances of the job and schedule it as below:
#every Sunday starting at 10 until midnight
0 */15 10-23 ? * 1
# every fifteen minutes starting on Monday midnight to Thursday 11:59 am
0 */15 * ? * 2-5 *
#every Friday starting at 12 am until 17:00 pm
0 */15 00-17 ? * 6
But it seems like there has to be a better way that will allow me to do this in one job. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
The easiest way to do that is with Calendars feature (Enterprise), you can assign each rule to a single job. Take a look at this.
I need to suppress AppDynamics alerts on every Sunday between 10ma to 3pm and remaining all the time, they should run. To achieve this, i need to write a croj expression to satisfy the condition of "run all the time except every Sunday 10am to 3pm". what could be the cron expression for this ?
You can create a cron job to run from Monday to Saturday, here for each hour:
0 * * * mon-sat
And another to cover the interval you want on Sunday, here one by one hour from 10:00 AM to 03:00 PM:
0 10-15/1 * * sun
I need a cron job that start at 12:00 AM and trigger the job every 2 minutes but only until 4:00 AM.
With this command I have to triggers another cron job that is very heavy and often killed by my server, so with this command every 2 minute the server is forced to resume the job.

How to set up a cron job to run from 2300 hrs to 0515 hrs(next morning) from Sunday to Thursday(job ends on Friday morning)
This is a specific requirement since my hostgator server is set to Chicago time and I need a job to run from Monday to Friday Indian Standard Time.
You will need three cron expressions to achieve exactly what you ask for:
23:00 - 23:59 (Sun-Thu, every 15 min)
*/15 23 * * 0-4 command
00:00 - 4:59 (Mon-Fri, every 15 min)
*/15 0-4 * * 1-5 command
5:00, 5:15 (Mon-Fri)
0,15 5 * * 1-5 command
Good luck!
i'm trying to do some stuff automatically every 8 Weeks, so i had open a new user crontab like this one:
crontab -e
0 9 * */2 1-5 do_this_stuff
# do it every 2 month on monday till friday at 9:00 am
This should do the job every 2 month on monday till friday on 9:00 am, but i does not. It is doing the job evey week once. Don't get it. What i'm doing wrong?
Running System is a latest debian.
regarding http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Cron it should run fine
The Anwer is, cron can't do a job randomly on a random day in a month. I had to change my crontab to: 0 9 1 */2 * do_sm_stuff -- this runs every two Month always on the first Day in a Month
thank you Igor
