Is there any way to set year in crontab parameter list?


I want to set a cronjob for a specific date and time. For example, date time like this 2017 July 12, 12 35. Is it possible to set Year in the crontab parameter list? I can set without the year field.


Solution

  • No. Crontab is for events that REPEAT on cycles within the year. It's got no capacity for scheduling events on a particular year
