cron 工具 每分钟_如何设置cron每40分钟/ 25分钟运行我的脚本？

I want a script to run every 40mins beginning on the 40th minute.

so that means:

00:40, 01:20, 02:00, 02:40, 03:20...

So I made this entry to cron:

*/40 * * * * /path/to/script/foo.sh

Unfortunately this runs the script every 40th minute of the hour:

00:40, 01:40, 02:40...

The same goes with the script that I meant to run every 25mins.

Am I missing something here?

ANSWERS

Alright, in case you happen to drop by here having the same problem

here's how I solved it:

# 40mins-interval

40 0 * * * /path/foo.sh (0)

0,40 2-22/2 * * * /path/foo.sh (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22)

20 1-23/2 * * * /path/foo.sh (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23)

# 25mins-interval

25,50 0 * * * /path/foo.sh (0)

0,25,50 5-20/5 * * * /path/foo.sh (5, 10, 15, 20)

15,40 1-21/5 * * * /path/foo.sh (1, 6, 11, 16, 21)

5,30,55 2-22/5 * * * /path/foo.sh (2, 7, 12, 17, 22)

20,45 3-23/5 * * * /path/foo.sh (3, 8, 13, 18, 23)

10,35 4-19/5 * * * /path/foo.sh (4, 9, 14, 19)

Notes:

1. There will still be collisions in this schedule (i.e: see schedules that run on the 0th and 10th minutes on both intervals).

2. The script won't run at an exact interval from its last run today going on the next day (i.e: 25min interval ends @23:45 today, begins @00:25 next day).

解决方案

It always splits the current hour only.

40/40 = 1 so it runs every 40th minute of an hour.

*/5 would do 5, 10, 15, 20, ...

You should go for larger intervals.

Do */30 for your 25 minute interval and every 60 minutes for your 40 minutes interval.

Otherwise set up two crontabs for your script:

0,40 */2 * * * /path/to/script/foo.sh

20 1,3,5,7,11,13,15,17,19,21,23 * * * /path/to/script/foo.sh
