Hi Admins, I'd like to fire a job only on the last day of the month from crontab. Using ksh and a crontab entry of 1 3 28-31 * * /apps/scripts/lastdayfire and have the script figure out which day is the last of the month. Any ideas? Here's a sample script that runs only on the 1st 2 days of the month. 1 2 1-14 * * /apps/scripts/1st2mondaysrunit #!/bin/ksh # script name 1st2mondaysrunit DAYOFWK=`date +"%Ou"`; export DAYOFWK if [[ $DAYOFWK = 1 ]] then /apps/scripts/1st2mondaysrunit fi Best Regards, Blake Tru64UNIX 5.1A sp1 GS80 Blake Brehl Sys Admin/DBA Anritsu Company United States Morgan Hill, CA [email protected]
