To run a crontab
job every minute on a Linux or Unix-like system, you can use the following crontab
entry:
* * * * * command_to_run
This crontab
entry will run the specified command_to_run
every minute. The asterisks (*) indicate that the job should be run every hour, every day of the month, every month, and every day of the week.
To schedule a crontab
job, you will need to edit the crontab
file for your user account using the crontab -e
command. For example:
crontab -e
This will open the crontab
file in a text editor. You can then add the crontab
entry above to the file and save it. The crontab
job will then be scheduled to run every minute.
By using the above crontab
entry, you can run a crontab
job every minute on a Linux or Unix-like system. It's always a good idea to carefully review the documentation and use the appropriate crontab
syntax when scheduling jobs. This will help ensure that your jobs are run correctly and that any problems are detected and addressed.
