Changing the Scheduled Cron Execution Time
Lifeboat makes use of schedule folders that exist on the system:
/etc/cron.hourly
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.weekly
/etc/cron.monthly
These folders are scheduled to run by the file at /etc/crontab
. To change the schedule edit the file. The online tool Crontab.guru can help with designing the schedule strings.
sudo nano /etc/crontab
Adjust the schedule as desired and "Write Out" the file by pressing ctrl-o. Press enter to use the same file path and overwrite. When done ctrl-x to exit.
Once the file is updated, a StackOverflow comment suggests restarting the cron service:
sudo systemctl restart cron.service
After restarting the service cron should be operating the updated schedule.
