Creating an execute schedule

Use Lumen^® Edge Service Manager to create an execute schedule for your tasks and workflows. After you create an execute schedule, create a job to automate task and workflow execution using your schedule. You can view details of existing jobs and edit them to make changes. You can manually execute a job or delete it if it is no longer needed. Use CRON expressions (CRON jobs) to create an execute schedule to run your repetitive commands. You can edit or delete an execute schedule.

CRON expressions are an accurate and flexible solution for automating and scheduling tasks and workflows.

CRON expressions are represented as:

Minute	Hour	Day of month	Month	Day of week
0-59	0-23	1-31	1-12	1-7; where 1=Sunday

For example, to automate a job on the following schedule: 3:00 pm, on the 10th day of the month, March through May, the CRON expression would be:
0 15 10 3-5 ?

Note: Library tab functionality is only available for AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Azure cloud providers.
