Hi,

I am trying to know more information regarding CORNTAB usage,
please help me.


thanks in advance.

What kind of information, specifically? And 'crontab' is the table that drives 'cron' which is the actual UNIX scheduler... no corn involved.

Thanks chulett,

By this you understood how much knowledge i have in crontab, so please provide any documentation, usage, architecture.

Just give the information where can i find the documentation related to that from ETL perspective.


thanks in advance.

Hi vardhan354,
We can find it in google.

From an ETL perspective you don't really need to know exactly what 'cron' is doing behind the scenes. The Director client tool shields you from all that and automatically interfaces with cron and builds the appropriate crontab entries for you.

If you click on Help from the Director toolbar, you'll find information on Scheduling Jobs, including Unscheduling, Rescheduling and errors you might encounter. There is also a Director Guide pdf manual in your Docs directory you could read... if you don't go through the 'Books' pdf you'll find it as the dsopsgde.pdf file.

For cron itself, Google or a Wiki would have information for you. Or go have a chat with a System Admin, if you've got a chatty one.

Is this some new scheduler out of the deep South, or just a typo?

Why are you using cronTab?
If you want to run a DS Job you need not know about it.
Are you running DSJob commands?
If you are running a script try googling...

Happy weekend...
