Task Scheduling in Linux - CronTab Command and How to Create/Use a Cron Job
Task Scheduling in Linux using CronTab Command to create and use Cron Jobs for executing commands periodically. This video will show you how to use/create a Cron Job using the CronTab Command on Linux and Schedule a Task to run at some given interval. Use this CronTab Command to Schedule multiple tasks and checkout the syslog for information about the task running on Ubuntu.
The reason to learn about cron is because it’s a time-based scheduling utility that allows you to schedule various jobs/tasks to run periodically or even on special system events. It’s fairly easy to use and comes with most Linux Based Distributions. Instead of having to daemonizie a task/process you can simply just make a call to it using Cron.
