It has been a few years since I've setup a crontab. I honestly cannot remember how to do it. I know there might be threads already available but hoping someone can guide me in setting it up. I would like to run some SAS code on Sunday night. I have SSH Tectia but no other editors. I used to have Crimson Editor, not sure if that exists any longer. I am familiar with the structure, minutes, hours, day of month etc. Need to know how to save, edit, add etc. Can this be done with just Tectia client?
If you login via ssh/tectia to a command line, you should be able to use the crontab -e command to create / edit cron entries. The editor to be used can be defined by setting the VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables (see man crontab)
Say I create it there, how does it save? Do I have to create some path in Notepad or some other program? For example,
00 19 * * 0 /usr/bin/ksh /users/work/weekly1.ksh
Where do I save so I know it will execute each week?
