Ensure Restarting of Services Using crontab

Before You Begin

• Please consult your operating system vendor manual for instructions on adding crontab entries.
• crontab entries must be made using the root user ID.

To ensure restarting of services using the crontab file:

1. From the client computer, open the crontab file.
2. Type an entry that includes the appropriate install directory and command and that reflects how often you want to restart services. For example:

   * 0-23 *** <software installation path>/Base/Calypso start

   indicates that services will be checked every hour to see if a restart is necessary (which is recommended).

3. Save your file.
