Title: Schedule a CRON job on Antminer s9
Post by: jlonghi on January 24, 2018, 08:10:46 PM
Hello

I tried scheduling a cron job on an S9 using crontab -e. It threw an error saying /var/spool/cron/crontabs didn't exist so I created it. I noticed there was already a cron job scheduled in /var/spool/cron/root.

How do you properly set up a cron job on an S9?

edit:
ps -ef | grep crond does not show the cron daemon started.

I have the same question. I found some methods scheduling cronjobs through other hosts (e.g. a raspberry pi) but I would like to find out if it's possible to schedule running scripts natively.
